What up Broski? [Noharu, Tento]
Thu Nov 07, 2024 5:22 pm
She was... for the most part following the orders of her physician. The past day or two had certainly been a bit stressful. But she had managed to get the fuck out of the hospital and to her estate. It was a small little property, but it was at the very least still a house. Though she did wonder if she was gonna get moved with the orgs all restructuring and laying their little claims. Hmph. Whatever.
She didn't pay it much mind. Not when she had much BETTER things to be doing. She'd been focusing on her training.
She wasn't SUPPOSED to be physically exerting herself. And so instead, she'd been training with Kido and her Zanpaku'to instead. Not just Jinzen, but also just trying to find new uses for her zanpakuto's abilities in general. Things had gotten a bit... messy as a result. But hey, her lungs were being given all the leeway they needed to heal.
However, she HAD noticed a steady stream of visitors, and one in particular she had been expecting for a while. As Tento reached for the door, there was a soft sliding noise and the double doors would glide apart, promptly welcoming him to head into the estate as Noharu's voice would echo.
"Upstairs!" Her voice echoed from a stairway. And well, presuming her followed her instructions, he'd eventually make his way up to the second floor and see her in one of the main living areas, sitting on a small floor mat infront of a table more or less littered with scrolls and books.

Well this day took a longer turn of events. Just when he had time to visit Noharu at the hospital, he only arrived to be told by the nursing staff that he had be discharged. A few days too. HOW DID HE NOT RUN INTO ANYONE TO TELL HIM THAT? It was one thing to not know, but the fresh food he made was not pipping hot anymore. Thankfully it atill had a warm heat to it but still… He had to ask around to find her place.
As Tento reached the top of the stairs to her estate his heart raced a little. He took a deep breath, clutching the yellow flowers and breakfast sandwiches he had brought. His steps were hesitant, and a slight blush from growing nerves crept onto his cheeks as he approached. Was it really alright to pag her a house visit? They were not friends let alone hardly acquainted. But on the other hand, this was soemthing he really wanted to do.
As Tento reached the entrance of Noharu's estate, the soft sliding noise of the double doors opening welcomed him inside. He was greeted by the faint echo of Noharu's voice, directing him upstairs. He felt a mix of curiosity and concern as he climbed the stairs, noting the traces of recent training in the air. Was she using her shikai to pull some ‘strings’? Reaching the second floor, Tento found Noharu seated on a small floor mat cluttered with scrolls and books. Her determination was evident, despite the physician's orders for her to avoid physical exertion. Seems she could not be slowed down too long, she was gutsy with heart. He admired her tenacity but also felt a twinge of worry for her well-being.
"Hi Noharu," he began softly, his voice carrying a mix of gratitude and calm reservedness. He had wanted to come here as a professional but looking at her now in person, a glimpse of something before peered into his head. “Oh, I brought these for you. Just a small token of thanks for everything you did during the fight against the giant dragon hollow". He extended the flowers towards her, their bright petals a cheerful contrast to the somber memories of the battle.
"You suffered gruesome injuries saving me and Rangiku, and I wanted to show my appreciation for that and giving us a chance to beat it. I'm sorry I let you down", Tento continued, his gaze meeting hers with sincerity. He then offered the breakfast sandwiches in homemade contains in a bag he brought, a hopeful smile tugging at his lips.
"I thought you might be hungry, and I know it’s important to keep your strength up while you recover". He watched her reaction, hoping she would accept his heartfelt gesture. "I can't thank you enough for your bravery and sacrifice. If there's anything I can do to help you while you heal, please let me know”.

Noharu smirked just a little as she watched the young man offer her flowers. Glancing at the blossoms before offering a little chuckle. "Well aren't you adorable. I appreciate the flowers, kiddo, but do me a favor. Find yourself a nice cute girl and hand those to her instead." She noted as she set her things to the side and stood up to approach him. She had a calmness about her even despite all she'd been through, no less the missing arm. She wasn't the same as she once was, that was for certain, but it wasn't anything that she allowed to have power over her.
"Now listen. I did my job as a member of the gotei. But more'n that, I did my job as a girl who does what's right and knew that thing had to get it's face caved in. Just because I came out worse for it doesn't mean you owe me anything. I helped you because I knew that if I didn't, we'd all be dead." She stated firmly, patting him on the shoulder before giving an impish little grin. "Besides, what kinda teacher would I be if I went and let you drown me in all these gifts? Hm? I aughta be the one thanking you for making it worth all these injuries to begin with." she paused and eyed the food for a moment. Well, THAT she'd accept. Cooking was a bitch and she was still figuring that out with just one arm.
"Now run along, bucko. I'm sure there's plenty of people need you a whole lot more than I do." she noted with a gesture towards the door. Assuming he was just here to say thinks, which she had no interest in facilitating. last thing she needed was any gratuitous gesturing just because she was dumb enough to get herself all fucked up.

Tento watched Noharu as she spoke, the outstretched offering of the flowers coming down to her comment. “Hey, I thought I was giving them to a cute girl”. He offered in banter after Noharu's chuckle. She walked with a calm coolness as she stood up and approached him. It was powerful in her and yet comforting. A change, growth. He looked at her before speaking in a calm steady voice. "Noharu, I understand you're being humble but what you did was incredible. Your strength and courage saved us all, and I can't express enough how grateful I am. These flowers, they're just a small token of my appreciation. I know they can't make up for what you've lost, but I was hoping they can bring a little brightness to your day”, Tento then pulled them down. “But I get yeah. Long as you get the sentiment”.
He paused, looking down at the flowers before meeting her gaze again. Shrugging. Before giving her a stern soft gaze with his eyes holding firmness and a distant determination. I got the chance to do what I wanted to do today. Thank you. I shouldn't bug you too hard while you're trying to recover”.
With that, he gave her a respectful nod and turned to leave, hoping that his words had conveyed even a fraction of the gratitude he felt.

Noharu paused for just a moment and smiled softly. An amused little smirk as she gave him that amused stare. She certainly was entertained that the kid was giving it his all. ON a lot of things frankly. And after a few seconds, she stood up to her full height and patted him on the shoulder, before glancing at the bouquet and took it off his hands and set it on the table.
"I know kiddo." She noted softly, brushing her hair back and resting her hand on her hip. "Yea I know. I get what you're trying to say." She trailed off, looking up at him for a few seconds as she considered. She had a feeling he'd wind up like this, but more than that, she also had a good idea what would be happening down the line. She didn't know him super well, but she'd certainly learned enough. And .. she was also pleased to see that the kid who had wandered into her training turned out to be such a good egg.
"M'glad you stopped by bud. I know I aint exactly the best at showin it. But I am."

Finishing his bow and turning to leave he had thought it was that. He had shown his appreciation and Noharu accepted it. In hee Noharu way but all the same. His thanks to his once superior was received. However as he turned to leave he felt her pat him on his shoulder. With a turn of his head Tento looked over his shoulder down to her before feeling her take the flowers out of his hand and put them on the table. Well, that was a change from what he expected.“What caused the change of mind?”, Tento said in reference to her now choosing to take the flowers. He turned back to see her, her soft smile and the way she brushed her hair back, resting her hand on her hip, had a little bit of a sense of normality.
But since when did she call him kiddo now? He knew he was a fresh soul, but it felt weird getting called that by someone who looked ten years younger than him. Despite that wonder Tento chuckled softly, a playful glint in his eye as he looked at Noharu. "Kiddo, huh? You know, Noharu, Im goofy but am a man. I'm also pretty sure I've earned a promotion from 'kiddo' by now. But, coming from you, I guess I'll take it as a compliment”. He gave her a warm smile, his tone lighthearted. "Just don't be surprised if I start calling you 'Boss Lady' in return”.
Either way, he appreciated the way she acknowledged his efforts, her words carrying a weight of sincere understanding. “It's fine. I rather you stay yourself than try to act differently to show it. The real you is more than enough”, Tento said, lifting a hand up and gesturing it in the, forget about it, motion.

Noharu only really raised a brow slightly at that and snorted at his question. "Make up your mind, ya want me to take the flowers? Ya don't? Kids these days." She smirked and chuckled to herself, but didn't go trying to hand them back. She had no interest in going back and forth on the subject. Even more, as he insisted upon himself. "Oh are you now?" She didn't offer more than that and a smile, not a meanspirited one, but simply an amused one. She had no interest in his assetion as a man, she was simply amused that all it took was calling him kiddo to get him to try and puff up.
"I've always been myself. don't you get your pubes in a twist. Trust me, I'm nothing special right now. You get knocked down, you get back up. Circle of life and humiliation. You just make sure you don't go getting your face fucked before I get back to my top shape." She noted, patting the man on the back before turning to head back to her room, figuring he could find his way out without issue.

Tento watched Noharu with a mix of amusement and respect. Her bluntness was refreshing, it was very much what he had gotten used to in the few times he had interacted with her. She was most certainly herself appearing so at least despite what had happened and the aftermath. She was truly strong, he couldn't help but chuckle with her straightforward attitude. He took a step back, giving her space as she turned to leave.
"Alright, alright, I get it", he said, raising his hands in mock surrender. "I'll make sure to keep my face intact until you're back in top shape. But don't think for a second that I'm going to let you have all the fun. We'll see who's standing tall when the dust settles, Boss Lady".
He gave her a nod, a silent promise that he would be there, ready to face whatever challenges came their way. "Take care, Noharu. And don't worry, I'll find my way out. Just make sure you're ready for round two when I see ya again". With that, Tento turned and made his way out, a small smile playing on his lips. Noharu's words echoed in his mind, a reminder of the resilience and determination that defined their lives. He knew that no matter what, they would both keep getting back up, ready to face whatever came next.
