15 Truths About Shinigami
Chapter 1 : Gin
1. Gin liked his name because he didn't have to worry about forgetting it. Everyone else would remember it for him.
2. Nothing amused him more than watching the reaction of others whenever he introduced himself. Their expressions were priceless. Another reason why he liked his name.
3. Few people knew that he was named after his hair colour which was silver.
4. But if his hair caught the sunlight in the right angles, one would notice that his hair actually shone in purple tint.
5. Gin always smiles because he knew that a smile can hide a thousand secrets, not to mention it hides his eyes perfectly as well when they arched in happy curves as he smiled.
6. His facial muscles often sour from the constant smile he plastered on his face but he kept smiling or else his face would sag like a bulldog.
7. Gin never owned any mirrors. He knew how he looked like well enough without them.
8. Besides the fear he saw reflected in other shinigamis' eyes satisfied him. They were his mirrors.
9. Gin had considered doing a facial plastic surgery before to fix that smile on his face permanently but he chickened out last minute because... Rangiku would kill him if she found out about this.
10. On second thought, she might not kill him but avenged him instead by doing the boob-shrunk surgery herself. Then all the male shinigami in Soul Society would hunt his head and kill him over and over again. Gin shuddered at the mere thought of it. How fortunate he never did it.
11. Gin never told Rangiku where he got the food because he never wanted her to know how he got it - he sold his body to one of the pudgy "noble" man in exchange for the food.
12. He could eat to his heart content after that and even brought some back to Rangiku. He never lingered after he finished his business even though the man had offered him anything he wanted if he chose to stay.
13. He never told the man all he wanted was to come back to Rangiku. She was his home.
14. Aizen later killed that man and Gin became his underling ever since.
15. He never told Rangiku all these but instead he said, "I'm sorry." It was all that was left to say to her.
A/N: I read some similar 20 truths LJ challenge stories in Naruto and they inspired me to write this. But I was too lazy. So I only came up with 15. Haha…
