Rating: T for things that will make a dirty mind snicker. But hopefully not too dirty. Use Orbit, folks, and 'clean it up!'
Characters: Renji, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Rukia, mentions of Kira and Hinamori
Pairings: None. Funniness, no mushy. Muahaha.
Disclaimer: I dun own nuthing. Kill me for that grammar, but eh, ees true~.
Warnings: A teeny bit of less-than-innocent humor. Nothing bad, I swear. Oh yeah, and I use both subbed and dubbed references in here...it'll most likely always be that way...
Mah~...Koneko-chan lost her voice this weekend. Get better soon, tomodachi! Saranghae chinguyeo!
During their time in Inuzuri, Rukia pointed out that she and Renji could be taken as opposites. He was relatively tall, whereas she was shorter than average. She was quick here he was strong, and while the redhead was horribly inept at kido, Rukia had no problems using the easier techniques. The duo covered for each others' weaknesses.
In the Academy, classmates joked that Renji's stubbornness and argumentativeness made up for Hinamori and Kira's frequent acquiescence. He was often asked if he felt the need to offset his friends' calmer and more subservient attitudes.
When Renji Abarai joined the Eleventh Division, he found steadfast friends in Ikkaku Madarame and Yumichika Ayasegawa. While hanging around Ikkaku, people began commenting on the fact that Renji's overly-long ponytail was most likely compensation for his companion's complete lack of a head of hair. Yumichika's only comment had been somewhere along the lines of "at least the shades of red don't clash," seemingly referring to Abarai's fiery mane and the markings around Madarame's eyes.
When he was appointed to the Sixth Division, Ikkaku teased Renji that his abrasive nature and unruly appearance balanced out his noble captain's refined appearance and proper attitude. Even their shikai were opposites, Senbonzakura being an elegant dance when attacking, responding to the Kuchiki's every whim, and Zabimaru's blatantly fierce shape and wild attack pattern. It was, for all appearances, a yin-yang relationship.
When he obtained bankai, Ikkaku congratulated the red-haired fukutaichou with a friendly punch on the shoulder, claiming that their occasional sparring sessions were bound to become more interesting. Yumichika, on the other hand, donning a nerve-wrackingly mischievous expression, asked Renji just exactly what he was compensating for now.
Not really sure where this came from...BUT I LOVE IT. Just kinda popped out one day. R&R, pleaze, if you like?
