Pairing: Isane Kotetsu and Yasutora 'Chad' Sado
7. Isane
"You are fairly…neurotic, so you want someone solid and comforting, who won't turn out to be a secret violent psychopath or anything. Maybe someone who is a good listener, too."
So I will pair you with…Chad! May warm snuggles comfort you both!
"… and I'm sure that Unohana-taicho will be angry. I really didn't mean to be late for the appointment but my patient just wouldn't stop talking and I didn't know how to stop them and I was so late and Unohana-taicho values punctuality and…"
Isane Kotetsu burbled on about her conviction of her Captain's anger. In truth Captain Retsu Unohana very rarely showed any anger towards any of her subordinates, and she had never shown any anger towards Isane. Yet the young Lieutenant was convinced.
Her listening companion sat on the single armchair in Isane's living room. Most of it was taken up with medical guides and journals all thoroughly read and dog eared. The man was tall, dark skinned and silent. Words were hardly Yasutora Sado's forte though he admired the way that Isane made them sound. Even when she was talking nonsense as she was currently, he loved the way her soft voice formed each sound.
"… I mean we're always told to keep our patients happy but how can I keep two patients happy if their happiness is conflicting? Unohana-taicho can be really scary and I don't want to make her cross but now I'm sure I have. Oh, what if she demotes me. I couldn't bear it. The only lieutenant in the entire Gotei 13 to be demoted. How would Kiyone react? I simply couldn't, I…"
Her rambling suddenly ceased as warm, strong arms wrapped around her body. Chad's chin rested on Isane's head, he was the only she knew who could do that. His arms were comforting and safe, she'd be fine.
Maybe, she thought, she was overreacting a little. It was that or this was the last hug she'd ever get…
