Author's Note:
My goal is to actually get this drabble set finished by the end of second semester. And if I can't do nineteen/eighteen in that time then I will just hate myself forever, haha. Also, thank you to everyone who reviewed! You all are so wonderful. :) I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.

afternoon
Opening Song: "Cups" - Anna Kendrick
Rangiku likes to spend her afternoons in solitude. She likes to just sit down on the veranda of the 10th Division compound, pull her legs up to her chest, and enjoy the momentary peace. There's no hustle and bustle that comes every morning with shinigami running around for work, there's no boisterous partying and congregating that comes every night to celebrate the end of the work day — this small slice of time is hers alone.
Sometimes she uses this time to think, to play with "what if"s and "maybe"s, but lately she just rests her head against her knees and closes her eyes. Thinking is taking too much out of her, and it's starting to take away the peace that she so needs. It brings up what she still needs to put away and leave alone.
She watches the sun set, quietly, alone. The more she tries to push the thoughts to the back of her mind, the more they struggle to gain control. Even in her peace, she can't help but wonder if he's watching too.
Everyday, at the same time, Gin looks out the window of his office. But the sun never sets in Las Noches because the light does not exist in this darkness. Then he thinks, maybe, it's just that silly hope that tugs on his insides that's telling him she's still watching and waiting.
Closing Song: "I Will Wait" - Mumford and Sons
Every have a super fun and super safe New Year's! I will probably be drinking wine and watching anime because I hate being cold and I don't wanna leave the house, haha.
