Toushirou honestly looks stunned by the question. Of all things he was expecting to be asked, that wasn't it.

For one thing, people's always viewed him as a child, so dating never really crossed his mind.]

No, I'm not. [Even if people did seem to think he and Hinamori had something going on for whatever reason.]

[notapineapple]

Ah, okay...

[He's silent for a moment, before he said.]

D... Do you want to? [Wait.] Uh, with me? Do you... wanna.... start datin' me?

[He's starting to get really red, and his breathing is starting to get heavier.]

I... I... I mean... shit! Doyouwannagoonadate?!

1/3

[freezetheheavens]

Abarai, you're not making--

2/4

[freezetheheavens]

[Wait.]

3/4

[freezetheheavens]

[What did he just ask him?]

4/4

[freezetheheavens]

[WHAT THE HELL.

Toushirou's stunned speechless. It takes a few minutes before it completely sinks in and he just..stares at Renji in complete surprise.]

...You want to go on a date with me? [What made you decide he was a good choice in a partner?]

[notapineapple]

Y... yeah.

[At least he got it. Right? Didn't have to explain it.]

If... if you wanna. I know a... nice place for food nearby?

[freezetheheavens]

[How is he supposed to react?

Toushirou stares at him as if waiting to see if it's a joke or not. When it becomes clear that it isn't, he sighs out softly.

It wouldn't hurt, right?]

I'll go on one with you.

[notapineapple]

R... really?!

[He's so happy, this definitely isn't a joke.]

Okay, uh... there's a sushi bar down in Karakura Town I like. Y'wanna meet there?

[freezetheheavens]

[That manages to get a small smile from the captain.]

That's fine. I'll meet you there.

[notapineapple]

Yeah? Okay, see you there!

[With a nod, he heads off, texting Hitsugaya the location.

When he gets there, he's dressed rather casually, and simply. A t-shirt and jeans. It's not a really fancy date.

He hopes Hitsugaya isn't expecting a fancy date...]

[freezetheheavens]

[If it was a fancy date, he's going to freeze Renji where he stands.

But the man who comes to greet Renji isn't the tiny captain he just asked out. No, it seems to be an adult version of said captain dressed in in jeans, t-shirt, and a jacket.

He approaches Renji casually.]

Abarai.

[notapineapple]

[Holy shit. Now he goes red all over again.]

A... ah... y'can call me Renji. For tonight?

[He's stammering his words. Holy shit, this was actually happening.]

[freezetheheavens]

[Does he look amused? Because he is.

Not a lot of people has seen him in this form. Truth be told, no one's ever seen him in this form. Until now.

Feel special.

He raises an eyebrow.]

'Renji', huh?

[His voice is deeper, too. Have fun with that, Renji.]

[notapineapple]

[Holy fuck, he is so fucked. Hitsugaya is doing this to torment him now, he's sure of it, because Renji is completely beet red and he's fiddling with his pants. He's completely at a loss for words as he moves to enter the bar nervously.

Good job. You ruined him.]

[freezetheheavens]

[The amusement doesn't fade as he follows Renji inside. He wasn't expecting Renji to have such a reaction to this form, to be honest. In fact, he seems to be completely unaware of how this form seems to be affecting anyone else who's watching them.

He's a little proud he ruined him, though.]

[notapineapple]

[He sits down near the conveyer belt and just looks at Hitsugaya. And just tries to calm his gay ass down because he was seriously going to ruin this.]

...Uh... you look... really different.

[freezetheheavens]

Do I?

[He sits down beside Renji, though he does tilt his head a bit to look at the lieutenant.]

How? [Aside from the obvious.]

[notapineapple]

...Like... completely different.

[He doesn't even know how to explain it.]

You're... well... like you were good lookin' before, but now you are in a different way.

[freezetheheavens]

[A sound escapes from him.]

I figured it'd be better to go like this than in my other form.

[Don't want people thinking you're a pedophile now.]

[notapineapple]

O... oh. Shit. I didn't even...

[He knows Hitsugaya is an adult. But he definitely looks far younger here.]

Sorry...

[freezetheheavens]

[Somehow, seeing Renji so flustered actually makes Toushirou chuckle.

He shakes his head.]

No, it's fine. Besides, it's better for me to be able to look at you properly in this form. [Instead of looking up.] You don't mind my child form?

[notapineapple]

I don't even think of it as yer child form. I know you're an adult. As much as an adult as the rest of us.

[He rubs his face, getting a glass of water instead of booze.]

I like you for you, Toushirou...

[freezetheheavens]

[His words gets a bit of surprise from the captain.

Then his expression softens as he grabs his own glass of water.]

...Mind if I be honest with you....Renji? [He says his name almost hesitatingly. There are few people he's ever used first names with; in fact, Hinamori is the only person he's ever used a first name with.]

[notapineapple]

...Yeah, of course... what's up?

[His mind is already thinking the worse, as he's trying not to show the extra nerves that were coming from him.]
