52.Needless Emotions
Mah- Hey, Kuchiki-san
Mah- Do you like Kurosaki?
(fx- SPIT)
Ruk- Pardon?
(fx- drip drip drip)
Mah- To put it plainly, what kind of relationship do you have with Kurosaki right now?
Ruk- What kind… we’re friends…
Michi- Wait, Mahana! You’re being too blunt!
Mah- What are you talking about? Even though you guys are curious about it, you weren’t asking, so I asked instead!
Michi- I… I wasn’t really curious!
Chizu- Well, that’s true with you.
Tat- Michiru hates Ichigo.
Ori- Is that true!?
Michi- N… no, it’s not! It’s not like I hate him or anything, Orihime!!
Michi- I just think he’s kind of scary-looking…
Chizu- It doesn’t matter what your tastes are!
Chizu- This topic has nothing to do with you!
Chizu- Hime and I are the ones involved in this!
Tat- I can understand why Orihime is, but why are you involved?
Chizu- It’s obvious! If Kuchiki-san makes an effort to bag Ichigo,
Chizu- I can ruin Hime’s chastity without working hard!
Chizu- Such as it is, do your best, Kuchiki-san!
Chizu- I’m rooting for you!
Chizu- Then Hime’s virginity will be in my hands!!! In my hands!!!!
(ori- Chizuru-chan…)
(tat- Aw__ there, there)
(tat- Geez, what an idiot to yell stuff like that in broad daylight…)
Mah- Well!?
Mah- What’s your relationship with him anyway?
Mah- As soon as you transferred here, you’ve been hanging out with Kurosaki,
Mah- but what does he mean to you?
Ruk- …Kurosaki-kun is…
Ruk- He’s just a friend!
(Ruk- Whether I like him or hate him)
(Ruk- it’s too troublesome.)
Mah- Eh…? Serious…?
Ruk- Yup.
Mah- No romantic feelings…?
Ruk- Yup.
(Ruk- Longing, affection, friendship)
Mah- Not even a little bit…?
Ruk- None!
Ruk- Not even as much as the cuticle on my pinky finger!
(Ruk- those are so troublesome.)
Ori- I see…
Ori- Aw, man!
Ori- What a bummer!
(arrow- Superior)
Ori- If Kuchiki-san also liked Kurosaki-kun then us girls would win 2 against 1!
(tat- Augh, there she goes again, talking about stuff that makes no sense. How do I play it)
Tat- Uh… uhmm, Orihime…?
Tat- Times where more people are an advantage are at martial art battles and such… Love isn’t set up like that.
Tat- Do you understand that much so far?
(tat- Gently tries to play it off for now.)
(arrow- Uncomprehending look.)
Chizu- AH!!!
Chizu- I see!! I get it! It’s a threesome!!
Chizu- If it’s a threesome, then lack of skill wouldn’t matter when the number of people can take the initiative!!
Chizu- In other words, 2 women against 1 man is victory for the women!!
Tat- Is that stuff the only thing on your mind!?!
Chizu- Yes! But if it turns out this way, what should I do!?
Chizu- Should I get there ahead of time and prepare a camera to record the whole thing!?
Tat- SILENCE!!
Chizu- NO!!
Chizu- Better yet, I’ll stab Kurosaki and go in his place…
Tat- Die!
Tat- Die!
Tat- DIE!!
Tat- You’re a perpetual cat in heat!!!
Ruk- If I have to leave sooner or later,
Ruk- I can’t be shackled by anything.
Ruk- Longing, affection,
Ruk- friendship,
[left]Ruk- Those are really,
[center]Ruk- really,
[right]Ruk- troublesome things.
Ruk- Let alone the feeling of envy over that.
Ruk- To a Shinigami, that is all supposed to be
Ruk- needless emotions!!
Ruk- …How pathetic… Kuchiki Rukia…!
Ruk- _____I guess___...
Ruk- I’ve spent… a little too much time in this world…
Ren- YEEE______SS!!
Ren- You understand, after all!!
Ren- Though another way to say it,
Ren- is that thanks to your long stay in this world,
Ren- you were able to live a tiny bit longer!
Ren- Rukia!!
Ruk- …You…
Ruk- Renji…!
Ruk- Abarai Renji…!?
Ren- Even with pursuers from Soul Society closing in on you,
Ren- you didn’t notice it while talking to yourself lost in thought, huh?
Ren- I get that you’re in a Gigai
Ren- but aren’t you getting a bit too soft after a few months?
Ren- Spit it out, Rukia!
Ren- Where’s the human that stole your powers?
Ruk- Wh…
Ruk- What are you talking about…?
Ruk- Just because I’m in a Gigai doesn’t mean I’ve been robbed of my powers…
Ruk- Much less that the one who robbed them would be a human…
Ren- It is a human!
Ren- If it’s not, you wouldn’t be expressing yourself like a human!
Ren- You, who came from the Rukon district along with me, who had been picked up by the aristocratic Kuchiki household,
Ren- you, Kuchiki Rukia, who as a Shinigami was given a special education for your gifted genius!
Ren- You wouldn’t be expressing yourself like a human!!
Ren- Right!
Ren- Captain Kuchiki!
Ruk- _____Honored brother…
Ruk- …Byakuya_____…!
Bya- …Rukia…
Ren- The transfer of a Shinigami’s power to a human is a serious crime.
Ren- It’s a greater kindness to leave this execution to us, instead of to the execution corps.
Ren- Now
Ren- Tell me the address, Rukia.
Ren- I’ll capture you.
Ren- And as for the guy who stole your powers,
Ren- I’ll kill him.
Ren- …Don’t stick up for him.
Ren- You understand.
Ren- This one and the one before,
Ren- You didn’t dodge it.
Ren- I let you dodge it.
Ren- With the next one,
Ren- I’ll slice you.
Ishi- A pair of armed men against a lone, unarmed girl…
Ishi- It’s not a very pleasant thing to see…
Ishi- I don’t really like
Ishi- that sort of thing.
Ren- …What the hell are you…!?
Ishi- …I’m simply a classmate.
Ishi- One who hates Shinigami.
Extra#9:
Ichi- I’ve got no choice but to eat this, then…
Ichi- I’m not really hungry, though…
