Kenpachi Zaraki: Support A

Avatar (smiles): Good evening, Kenpachi.

Kenpachi: Hey there, Avatar, didn't expect to see you at the Squad 11 Barracks of all places. And…is that sake I see in your hands?

Avatar: Yes, it's a little something I got from Captain Kyōraku's stash. I figured I'd get you something as thanks for the things you said to me yesterday.

Kenpachi: Umm…you know I didn't…bah, never mind, I'm not really one to turn down free sake.

Avatar: Wonderful! Hey, where's Yachiru? She's usually with you.

Kenpachi: Oh, she's playing with Ikkaku and Yumichika. Good thing too, times like this are usually me time, actually.

Avatar: Oh, I see…

Kenpachi: But hey, who am I to refuse good booze huh? Especially if it's from Kyōraku. He's got the best booze in the Seireitei.

Avatar: Alright, have a cup then?

Kenpachi: Bah, I prefer to drink straight from the bottle. You have the cup. Join me in fact.

Avatar: Certainly, I'm not intruding, am I?

Kenpachi: Nah, usually at times like these I just kinda unwind. After spending a whole day whipping my men into shape, I just like to kick back and enjoy something that's in my top five favorite things, relaxing…ah, that is some damn good booze.

Avatar: What about paperwork?

Kenpachi: What about it? Play should always come before work. You're just as guilty you know. Don't you have "guardian priestess" duties to attend to.

Avatar: Heh, I guess I'm starting to appreciate the idea of putting play before work myself, honestly.

Kenpachi: Oh yeah?

Avatar: Yeah, after that conversation we had yesterday, I've honestly felt so much more calm and relaxed about my duties as the priestess. You did a lot for me yesterday, Kenpachi, and I'm truly grateful for that.

Kenpachi: Well, I wasn't exactly trying to help you, I just hated the way you were talking before.

Avatar: Honestly, so was I. But now, I have no regrets about what I must do for the Soul Society's sake. I will fight, and I will save it and everyone in it.

Kenpachi: At least you get it now. This world has no place for idealists who aren't even willing to fight for those ideals. That makes them fakes, like that Tōsen.

Avatar: And I realize that now. So even if you didn't mean to help me, thank you all the same, Kenpachi.

Kenpachi: …che…

Avatar: So…after we finish that bottle, what do you say to a quick round, huh?

Kenpachi: Are you challenging me to another fight?

Avatar: What can I say, I seek battle so that I can be strong enough to protect this world.

Kenpachi (smiles): You better be ready, this booze won't exactly bring my skills down.

Avatar: I wouldn't have it any other way.

Avatar and Kenpachi have achieved Support A

A.N: I liked this conversation, actually, it gave me the chance to highlight Kenpachi as a character outside of fights. To me, Kenpachi, along with Gin Ichimaru and Sosuke Aizen, were arguably Kubo's greatest accomplishments in Bleach. Three fantastic well-rounded characters. Next time, Support S!
