a tray with the promised saké would be brought to the Quincy’s side, mere moments before he was joined by the noble, quietly settling on the opposite side of aforementioned tray.
" it is quite the peaceful night. I hope it will manage to ease your exhaustion and sooth your mind"
The Grandmaster would settle in the gardens without objection. The quiet grounds and the full moon above offered a rare sort of peace, one he had no reason to refuse.
Perhaps, for once, neither side would have to discuss war, duty, or 𝙗𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚.
@QUINCYPRISONER You’ll have to excuse me, i make it a rule not to submit to delusions, keep a clear mind and my freedom of opinion.
But thank you for the unappealing proposition anyway.
@QUINCYPRISONER So, if i understand this right, you are allowed to share your opinions and convictions freely, yet when i allow myself to do the same, it is seen as audacity.
hardly the best way to convince me of your objectivity in the matter, don’t you think.
He is quite right. if the quincy is providing the wine, it is only fair for byakuya to bring a bottle of his finest saké as well.
They could settle in the gardens. It is quiet and the moon is up and full tonight, quite the peaceful atmosphere.
It seems they do share more similarities than just a stern expression and luscious hair. .
in that light, enjoying a well deserved drink in his company would be a delight close to his evening.
There is no need for you to apologise to me, Matsumoto-san. I understand with clarity the meaning behind your words, and i thank you for your honesty.
i might put in some more efforts to. . enjoy life more, as you suggested.
I feel as though that’s because the Head Captain is more personable. At any rate, I would never say your status isn’t a reason to like you.
. . . I seem to lack the eloquence to convey what I actually mean. My sincerest apologies, Kuchiki-taichou.
Strange, Shunsui is a noble by title as well, yet the way he is perceived is quite different. so perhaps, it does have to do with me.
in any case, i am not entirely opposed to. .enjoying life. i simply have responsibilities to fulfill, and expectations to meet.
I’m not fond of the nobility thing, but that has less to do with you and more to do with the societal issues that come with that.
Regardless, from an objective standpoint, I quite like you, sir. It just wouldn’t hurt you to enjoy life once in a while. That’s all.
@QUINCYPRISONER calling yourself an expert and relying on an exhaustive list to qualify beauty, implies your standards are a norm applied by the majority.
otherwise, i fear it is nothing but your own fantasies. but entertain me, what is your list made of ?
@QUINCYPRISONER I do not mind. it remains after all, nothing but your opinion on the matter. Beauty is subjective, each eye perceives it differently.
as for your tastes. . were they judged excellent or is it once again, another personal opinion of yours ?
