[ Feels like getting a grade from his strictest teacher back in shinigami school. Quietly pleased that he's managed to score above average, but also quite keen to show that he can in fact meet his extraordinarily high expectations, sir. ]
I'll take it But just you wait, next entrance is gonna blow your lil blue-crossed socks off
[ abarai should be very proud of his score. 70% might be more "above failing" than "above average", but as aforementioned: that's 70% from a quincy grading a shinigami. granted, a shinigami who is also a friend he doesn't completely hate. and who guessed correctly that his current socks have blue crosses on them. ]
Coming from you, I bet Kurosaki should worry more about you blowing a hole in his wall than I should about losing my socks.
[ since it will be kurosaki's property (if abarai tries to make a cool entrance at ishida's apartment, his score would plummet to -99999), that's not his problem. all the same, ]
Bonus points for a cool entrance without property damage. Double bonus points for managing it without using Kurosaki's window.
[ let's not think about what it says about ishida that he's getting into the strict teacher shtick. ]
isshin has grabbed both yuzu and karin in an immediate, tight bear-hug and is bemoaning their obviously haunted house (really?) to the giant poster of his mom on the wall, which makes him think that isshin knows exactly who's in the house and what they're up to in true, nosy, former-shinigami-father fashion, so ichigo just. doesn't even bother hiding it, just gets up, grabs half the takoyaki remaining, stuffs it back into the take-out box (and grabs the bag of bonito flakes) so he can head upstairs.
he hears his dad wail something about how quickly their son has grown to the poster, and then he's stepping into his room and closing the door firmly behind him. ）
Oy, asshole. If you broke anything, you're gluing it back together.
（ he's both attached to the trophies and not, in that paradoxical way. his mom was there for every tournament, he has pictures of the two of them together holding onto them in what became almost a ritual afterwards. they used to go out and get ice cream, win or lose, whenever a tournament finished. but he also wouldn't be upset if renji broke them, because that's just what life is. they're fixable. it's the memories that are important more than the objects, really. ）
Not for nothin But have you thought you haven't done enough training to hone that
Fightin instincts is good, but they ain't half as useful if you treat everything as a threat
[ From Mr. I Will Cut A Bitch For Being Rude To A Lady that's real fucking rich... but also he is basically a ghost soldier. And Zabimaru has some trigger discipline. Not a lot, but at least if he cracks someone's skull, it's because he really wanted to. ]
[ There's a bit of a pause between messages, as she reads his over a few times. It isn't anything to do with training, and it doesn't always feel like instinct. More like something else forcing her to move.
But after the third read she just stares down at her phone. Wait. ]
of course I have! I've been training since I was a little kid! I'm not all instinct you know!!

[ There is a very, very long pause as Renji weighs his options before he flicks his flip phone open again. ]
Alright I'm comin
[ And then, one sweaty, curse-filled minute later, a tremendous sound like twisted metal drowning out a howl of agony resounds through Ichigo's house.
Renji forgot about the fucking karate trophies. ]
