Author's Note: Guh, I've just OTP'd again. Make that NarutOTP'd. And I don't even watch or read it! Anyway, I'm currently totally high and KakuSaku. That aside, please enjoy the latest installment!
VII. "Memory"
"Do you remember anything from your human life?" Orihime asked him, staving off madness and depression with idle banter.
He gave her an apathetic stare, slightly irate with having to keep her company. "Of course not."
"Do you think I will?" Orihime asked, and Ulquiorra was pleased that she was finally acknowledging her fate.
"Of course not," he told her flatly. "You'll remember nothing but your devotion to Aizen-sama."
Thinking back on all her hellish encounters with the other Arrancar, as well as with Gin Ichimaru and even Aizen himself, she closed her eyes, smiled, and muttered, "Thank goodness."
