POOF.
Yes, it all started with a poof. Then the cutest chibi shinigami that ever appeared on television just turned into the coolest-ass shinigami. Yup, like magic.
"Wow. I feel a little weird back in normal-death god-mode after being three inches tall for so long," commented Zarame, stretching out his arms.
The rest of the group just stared up at Zarame. Michiru actually shaded her eyes from the sunlight with her hand as she looked up. Only then did he realize that he had six inches even on Sotetsu.
"Ah…this is embarrassing."
"Um…Zarame-sama? I feel very, very strange," Michiru had a look of awe on her face. She knew, of course, that Zarame wasn't originally three inches tall, but this still shocked her.
"Yeah…um…maybe I should take up basketball, or something."
"You'd definitely be able to reach the basket without standing on your toes, even," said Sotetsu, looking Zarame up and down and scratching his prickly beard.
"Woah, dude, have you been on steroids or what?"
"Actually, Chika, in the shinigami realm, we—IDIOT! I'M A FREAKING SHINIGAMI!"
"Ah…let's all calm down for a moment. Don't worry about what Chika said, Zarame-sama. We all still love you!" Michiru, ten points for that wonderful, encouraging speech. However, when you're seventeen, the term "love" ain't all that innocent.
"Michiru! I love you too!" Zarame leaned down and gave Michiru a nice, loving, god of death hug, and she pretty much almost froze to death. Shito gave Zarame a light punch on the arm.
"Don't get too conceited, chibi shinigami. And you see this?" he pointed at the frost gathering on Michiru's face. "This proves that Grim Reaper/Michiru romance will never work out.
"EW! WTF, MAN! What romance? Michiru/Chika is the ideal pairing!" Chika roared at Zarame, who was just watching the development with interest, as if he already new the outcome.
"What are you saying? Shito/Michiru is the best!" The two hormonal zombies tossed each other their right hands (WTF) and promptly began beating each other up.
"GUYS!" Michiru picked them both up by the collars of their shirts. "SHUT THE HELL UP! BOTH OF YOUR PAIRINGS ARE NONEXISTANT (especially Shito's). IN FACT, I DON'T THINK I EVEN HAVE AN EXISTANT PAIRING TO BEGIN WITH! NOW STOP LIVING IN YOUR PEVERTED FANTASIES!"
Everyone just dropped what they were doing and stared at her for a good ten minutes.
"Wow, I think we just saw Michiru's 'inner voice,'" Chika finally said with wonder.
"'Inner voice' my butt. I've wanted to say this forever cuz I'm sick and tired of this shipping crap. Zarame, let's go make out in the corner and make all the fangirls cry.
"Cool!" Zarame picked up Michiru, set her on his shoulder, and walked away like it was perfectly normal. This is why there is no Zarame/Michiru relationship in Zombie Loan.
