24 Feb, Class Time, Classroom 2-2

Well, today we had a (relatively) interesting lesson with Byakuya-sensei.

Instead of reciting boring sakura-related haikus to us today (I wonder where he manages to find so many!), he decided to have a discussion.

He let us choose the topic (which was TOTALLY unlike him). So of course, our class, being sadistic, lame, and having a good memory, decided to ask him about his long sojourn in the toilet. (The time when he got locked in.)

He gave us this cold stare, and went,

"That is one of the most stupidest discussion topics I have ever heard."

Then Ishida, Ulquiorra, and I, being grammar freaks and all, took it upon ourselves to tell him that he could not use two comparatives (most and stupidest) in the same sentence in concert.

Which is not the best thing you can say to a language teacher.

Luckily, before he could reward us with his favourite punishment (to copy out a poem on sakuras, and do a satisfactory illustration below it), Kurosaki decided to persevere on with the toilet question anyway.

In the end, Byakuya-sensei threatened to get Aizen-sensei to come and lead the discussion if no one came up with an intelligent discussion topic. Suddenly, the entire class started flapping around, bombarding Byakuya-sensei with random ideas.

So, in the end, someone (probably Isane/Kiyone/Matsumoto) suggested that we talk about pets. So we did.

We actually had a good time.

We found out that Byakuya-sensei used to have this cat at home called Hisana. (Used to because apparently Hisana died a few years ago.)

Matsumoto has a grey cat called Haineko (because ash is gray, like its fur, apparently)

Isane and Kiyone own a pair of hamsters.

Byakuya-sensei even told us (after making us swear on pain of death that we wouldn't tell) that Gin-sensei had a bunny named Chappy (a cartoon character).

Weird.
