Overview: This was a challenge from Miss Yoo-hoo. I was to write a drabble using the word as the theme that starts with each letter of the alphabet. The drabble had to include the word somewhere in it. I will say this once: the only kind of bleach I own is the stuff you use to clean.
Title: Asphalt
I have a theory that 10th division is the reconnaissance division and so they would know what asphalt is. And yes, you can actually mix asphalt.
Characters: Hitsugaya Advance Team, Ichigo, mention of Isshin

The advanced team sat on the roof of the clinic watching as Ichigo helped his father mix something.
"What are they doing?" asked Rukia.
"Mixing something," Renji replied.
"I figured that out idiot."
"They're mixing asphalt," Toshiro added in his comments.
"What's asphalt?" came from the rest of the group minus Rangiku.
"It's used to seal holes and make travel by car easier," Rangiku finally said.
"That still doesn't explain what they're doing!"
"What more is there? I doubt any of you want to know what goes into asphalt," Toshiro said.
"Why do the two of you know about any of this?" Yumichika asked.
Rangiku and Toshiro just stared for a moment before Rangiku leaned almost dangerously off the edge of the roof and informed the rest, "It's because our specialty is reconnaissance. We HAVE to keep up with the world of the living." She shrugged and leaned back again.
Ichigo finally looked up and raised an eyebrow at the six of them. He watched as half the group immediately dispersed and then he raised the other eyebrow and the last three also disappeared. He'd never fully understand Shinigami.
