When; July 8, evening
Rating; Probably PG-13 for likely language
Characters; Kuchiki Rukia![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
juicebox_woes, Kurosaki Ichigo strawberried
Summary; Worried (and fed up) because of Ichigo's sudden bout of moping in the wake of Isshin's confession, Rukia decides to find a way to break him out of his slump, whether it is comforting or beatings that needs to be doled out.
Log;
With a sigh that was part worry and part frustration because of that worry, Rukia looked up for what had to have been the eighteenth time from her manga to level eyes on the closed door across the room from where she sat sprawled on the couch, feet propped up on a rather haphazardly arranged stack of pillows. He was still holed up in there. And it was beginning to grate on her nerves. Ichigo didn't brood. Well... at least he didn't normally brood. He got angry, hit things, and yelled. And that....she knew how to deal with, knew how to approach. But this sort of quiet, deep sulking that he'd chosen to immerse himself in? That was outside the realm of "Ichigo-crap" that she normally had to deal with.
And sure, if she set aside her own pride, she really didn't mind dealing with it all that much. Well -- ok, so it was still irritating -- but it was a part of who he was, and she honestly wouldn't want him any other way. But it still pissed her off. And it pissed her off even MORE because of how worried she knew she was about him. This....this wasn't normal, and it unnerved her to see him like this. Grumbling to herself about idiots and stubbornness, she swung legs off of the couch and padded her way into the kitchen. Sticking the plate of chocolate-chip cookies she's got at the store into the microwave, she carefully studied the buttons, remembering the numerous times he'd shown her how to work it. Watching as the device buzzed and whirred, managing to jump only slightly at the sharp ding as it finished, she retrieved the plate of now-warm confections and headed over to the door, rapping sharply.
"Oi, open up."

"No, it is my fault," he said dully; it was the same argument he'd repeated to himself, over and over. "I killed her."
But even as he said it, he realized that it wasn't quite that simple anymore. His dad being a shinigami complicated things, and prompted questions he wasn't sure he could answer. Could Isshin have saved his mom? Was it his fault, then, if he didn't? Not to mention everything that had happened since that day, how Isshin claimed not to see ghosts -- hell, what was going on the night his family was attacked? Did he know about Rukia the moment she stepped in Ichigo's room?
Too many questions and not enough answers.
