Dangyunhaji

Rukia vs Renji

Urahara debated his choices. "Ahhh. Kuchiki Rukia."

She was applauded as she stepped on the red circle.

The tiny stuffed animal turned expectantly at Yoruichi. "I'll go with… Abarai Renji!"

Yumichika and Ikkaku both "Ooh"-ed as the lover boy took his place, pink color in his cheeks.

MC Kon announced "Renji will begin."

Renji didn't start immediately at first. He stared at the floor, shifting from foot to foot.

"Looks like love!" Kon said, causing the girls to giggle.

Rukia looked up at Renji eagerly (Rukia is so short, she is still shorter than Renji when he is slouching).

"Ah well…" Renji glanced up, blushing profusely. "You know you're beautiful, right?"

Everyone laughed, save for Ichigo. He crossed his arms over his chest. Rukia, oblivious, turned away and touched her pink cheeks.

Kon laughed. "Renji is taking the L-O-V-E approach! We have our first Romance on 'Dangyunhaji/Of Course!'" Then he sensed Ichigo's reaction, so he pointed to the orange top. "Ichigo! Are you jealous?!"

The teams all turned to Ichigo. His frown confirmed their belief. They laughed even louder.

"Okay, okay," Kon said. In other words, the doors to Laughter Lane were closed. "What do you say, Rukia?"

She gave Renji a small smile. She waved her fist triumphantly in front of her as she said "Of course."

"You know the color of your hair hurts my eyes right?" Rukia asked.

Their audience chuckled. But Renji remained mostly unaffected by the insult. He nodded. "Of course."

Renji examined the girl before him. He knew that he would lose if he tried to act all suave and compliment his way into her heart. But he couldn't think of anything mean to say to her. After all, he really did think she was beautiful in that shirt.

Renji's eyes were serious when he asked her "Do you remember what happened on September 21st, February 9th, and June 13th?"

Rukia thought. "No."

Renji continued, "On those days, it probably rained a lot."

"Why?" she asked.

"Why?" Kon, Ichigo, and several others echoed.

"I cried on those days because you descended to Earth," Renji concluded.

Rukia looked away, blushing several shades of red.

The laughter erupted. The girls on both teams went weak at the knees and clutched each other dramatically. The boys hooted, except Ichigo, who was focusing all of his energy into a deadly stare.

"Of course?" Kon reminded Rukia through chuckles.

Rukia nodded, flustered. "Of course."

She couldn't think of anything to say. Her childhood friend, liking her? "Are you crazy?"

"Of course." Renji said, easily brushing by her statement.

Renji thought, now it's time I bring out the big guns. "Rukia, do you like me?"

Rukia walked away a tiny bit, covering her mouth with her hand. She was temporarily in shock. Everyone let out a long "Ooooh."

At this point, Rukia seemed almost defeated. To win, she would have to say that she did like him.

Meanwhile, Ichigo was burning holes into Renji's back. His teammates, Kiego and Ikkaku, were clapping him on the back and shaking him in effort to subdue his jealousy.

Inoue and Tatsuki ran to Rukia's side and pulled her back to the stage.

Once everyone was calm and composed, including Rukia, she replied "Of course."

There was more laughter and more "Oooh"s.

Ichigo let out a loud "HA!" being obviously ticked off. He raised a hand as if he was about to smack Renji from behind. Matsumoto and Kiego got in his way and pushed him back.

"Of course I like you, Renji," Rukia said. "But… you know I like you as a friend right?"

"You know I like you as a friend right?"

The audience hollered. Several screaming "OOOH!" at the top of their lungs. Ichigo sighed in relief.

Kon was having the time of his life. He laughed so hard, he fell off the stool.

Renji laughed, good-naturedly accepting his defeat.

"KNOCK DOWN!" Kon shouted, after he climbed back onto his perch. "Red team wins!"

Rukia clapped as Renji retreated. But he turned around to say, "You know it was a joke, right?"

More laughter.

Over the racket, Yoruichi shouted "Ichigo is up next!"

AN: Up next is Rukia vs Ichigo. If anyone has anything they want the characters to say (insults, compliments, mushy junk, etc.) tell me!
