Author's Note

So this is a drabble-y, diary-ish story for Isshin and Masaki's relationship. An exploration, if you will, of one of the few canon ships of Bleach. Though I think it'll mainly be by Isshin with a good dose of his adjustment to his new life. This'll be semi-chronological order and updates will likely be random and sporadic. Anywho, enjoy what is to come.


A new world.

Well, maybe not entirely new. I'd had missions to the World of the Living before, but living there was obviously going to be different. There is so much I don't know about this world. Hopefully the adjustment to being human wouldn't be too hard.

Who am I kidding?

This is probably going to be tougher than taking over the squad. At least I still had my nephew and other people I knew and could trust to help me get through that transition. This time I'm alone.

Er… well alone in the sense that I don't actually know anyone. I mean, I've heard of Urahara Kisuke, but I never really knew the man. Squad Two was always a secretive bunch and once the guy took over Squad 12 he was shutting himself away with the whole R&D shtick. Though I guess unless you had a good friend high up in another squad or something it wasn't exactly uncommon to not know the other captains, at least when you weren't one, or a lieutenant for that matter. Besides Urahara, I've only met Masaki, the beautiful Quincy girl my soul is now literally tied to, and the other guy Quincy, who I know nothing about. I'm sure Masaki will help me adjust, what with the whole soul binding thing. Not so sure about the four-eyes, didn't seem to like me, but he cares about Masaki and, again, I'm bound to her, so who knows, maybe he'll help.

It's a new world. A new adventure. Do I know what the hell I've gotten myself into? Not a clue. But I'm sure it'll work out because now we're tied together.

Comment/review to tell me what you think.
