Shaking his head, Mikhail made a slightly hurt face "Oh no, why would you ever think that I was making fun of you in my thoughts? Oh no no no!" Laughing softly again, Mikhail leaned back in the chair and put an arm behind his head. Right now, he was picturing Hirimi standing overtop the stove, boiling some water and looking beautiful as ever. The thoughts made him shiver slightly, what he was "seeing" in his head was the most detailed image anyone could ever imagine. Ever grain of the cupboards would be clearly visible, the hardwood floors reflecting the image of everyone and everything in the room. It was truly an art piece.
"Hebi? That devil. Oh well, you're content with what you know aren't you?" Making a thoughtful face, Mikhail chewed on the inside of his cheek thinking about why a spirit would do that to their Shinigami. In the end however, it didn't matter, as long as Hirimi was happy so would Mikhail. However, his attention jolted. "A spar with another Lieutenant? That should be fun, be careful will you." In a father-like way, Mikhail voiced his worries but eventually erased them. He knew very well that Hirimi could hold her own against another Lieutenant, he just couldn't help but want to protect her.
As the footsteps in the hall filled his ears, Mikhail sat up right, his back perfectly erect and his arms down on either side of him, he hands on his thighs. Raising an eyebrow, Mikhail sent a questionable look towards Hirimi. The voice in the hall was familiar to him but placing the idividual with the voice was rather difficult. The way he spoke though, it was very playful and kind in a cutesy childlike way, it forced Mikhail to smile and laugh softly to himself. He talks to her like they are old academy pals, hmm. I wonder, who is it?

fragleheart When Mikhail let her go to make the tea she scampered over to the small stove, trying to remember where she had put the herbs for one. After a short period of almost panicking, which was common for her when nothing was going on, she finally found them and started the process of fixing them. As the water heated she crossed back to the couches and and plopped down in one opposite Mikhail. She grinned when she heard him laugh, and scowled when that odd expression of his replaced it. "Your making fun of me in your thoughts, aren't you?" Though she tried her hardest to keep the scowl, it was soon lost in a grin, like most things were with Hirimi, so it wasn't that surprising. Suddenly she remembered something that she had planned on telling Mikhail as soon as she'd found out, but had forgotten up until this point in time. "Oh! I finally figured out why Kido backfires on me! I heard Hebi laughing about it." She paused when he asked how she was, and of course mentioned how he was doing. After a moment, she blinked and smiled. "Well at least your not almost getting yourself killed! That's always good news. I've been good, just healing a whole bunch. I have a spar with another Vice-Captain scheduled in a few days even, so that will be exciting." Hirimi was about to say something else when she heard a knock at her door with a certain tune to it that just gave away who it was before he even spoke. She stared at the door for a moment, holding back a laugh, though she couldn't hide the grin that went from ear to ear. "What's the password?" With that response from Hiri-chu, Xeion stopped knocking on the door. From the inside of the room, neither Hiri-chu nor Mikhail-san could tell what was happening on the outside since they only relied on the sound from the other side of the door to keep them informed as to what was going on outside. Then it came, the final knock, slightly louder than the rest. By the sound of it, it was loud, yet sad, somewhat expressing what Xeion felt at that moment, even if it wasn't. Since the people inside the room relied on sound, it was safe to assume that he was sad. "I'm sorry, I don't know the password. I'm sorry for bothering you then. You must be having an important meeting if you need a password to enter...," Xeion muttered with the prevalent tone being that of sadness, though there was a hint of something else in his voice. However, coupled with the sad knock from before, it was again safe to assume that Xeion was sad. "If you'll excuse me then..." The voice that politely and gently excused himself was then followed by a series of footsteps that seemed to get fainter and fainter. To anyone on the inside, it sounded like as if someone was walking away. That was the best conclusion they could get since they, as mentioned before, relied on sound to give them an idea as to what was happening outside. Who knows what anyone of them would see if they opened the door right now? An empty hallway? A blue rose by the door? It was all a possibility. One fact is for certain though, it would be something unexpected.

Hirimi looked down right shocked by Xeion's reaction. For a moment she thought he was joking, before she heard his last comment.
"Ack! Xeion! Get back here!"
Quickly jumping to her feet the raced across the room, trying to get to the door before Xeion was gone. A part of her still believed it was his messing with her, the rest thinking he really had left, taking her joke the wrong way.... Which wouldn't have made sense. Why would he ever take something like that seriously? He was Xeion after all. He didn't take anything seriously! This shouldn't be any different. Reaching the door she quickly wrenched it open, only to be met by what ever it was in the hall...

*Chu~! heart *
When the door suddenly opened, the first thing Hiri-chu would feel were soft, tender lips, pressing against her left cheek. It was a good five seconds before she felt those pair of lips reel back from her, revealing the full visage of the person who had given her such a heart-warming and expressive sign of affection. With a smile, he greeted her; with his usual quirk he made himself look appealing in her eyes, just like he did on the very first day they met, that fateful day where she accepted his offer to become a sister to him.
"Silly rabbit, don't you know it's not nice to tease your brother who loves you so much? I was seriously considering leaving, you know," said Xeion in a calm and gentle voice, making it obvious that his remark was just a jest as well, just like the one he did before. With his role as a pacifist and a general morale-booster, Xeion had to know several tricks and tips in the field of entertainment. Singing, dancing, story-telling and acting were only some of the things he had learned. In this particular situation, Xeion was glad he had developed his acting skills to a level that they are right now. It was useful for entertaining comrades with low morale and teaching silly rabbits a lesson about silliness of being silly towards someone you care for. "Well, since I, too, have tricked you, shall we call it even, my beloved Hiri-chu?"

The jolt of excitement that filled the room when Hirimi had opened the door seemed to rocket Mikhail to life. Hearing the commotion at the door and the many smooches that seemed be exchanged, Mikhail raise a brow. Listening carefully he'd heard a familiar name. "Xeion." All of the sudden, everything that just happened made sense. The dramatic entrance, the girly shreaks and shrills and the excitement always seemed to follow Xeion wherever he went.
That boy... Shaking his head mentally, Mikhail rose to his feet and walked over to the door. Waiting for Hirimi and Xeion to finish exchanging their many silly yet "cutesy" remarks, Mikhail extended his hand towards the male voice. "Xeion my friend, its been a while." In fact, it'd been so long that Mikhail really didn't remember the first time the two had met, he only remembered Xeion for his eccentric tendencies and remarkably familiar tone of voice. He's definately the kind of guy you just can't forget.

Hirimi blinked, surprised that Xeion actually hadn't gone anywhere. She recovered about the same time Xeion pulled back from kissing her on the cheek, and quickly grinned in response to his smile.
"Apparently not! I know now though. And you better not have left! I would have gone to track you down, and that could have taken me days with my sense of direction! You wouldn't want that, would you?"
The one strange thing that made both Hirimi and Xeion similiar were both of their... perky attitudes. Though Hirimi wasn't as 'Oh look a bunny!' as Xeion was, They were close enough that if people had to guess between anyone who were 'siblings' it would be Hirimi and Xeion... Though they weren't actually blood related, but hat didn't matter much in Soul Society.
"For now at least. I don't think this will stop any tricks in the future from either end." She smiled brightly, since she would obviously still play tricks on him when given the chance, and knowing him he'd play them right back.
It was then she remembered Mikhail was in the room, well, it was when she heard him say Xeion's name. Hearing him get to his feet and walk over she took a step to the side to give Mikhail room, since he'd probably squish her if she didn't. Her gaze went from Mikhail to Xeion, back to Mikhail, then for a second time to Xeion, wondering how they had met with a look of total and utter confusion on her face.

Xeion turned to Mikhail-san as soon as he heard is voice and smiled at him, soon followed by a friendly wave. "Hey there, how's it hanging? Yes, it's been a while. I'm glad you survived Las Noches," he greeted the shinigami whom he knew as the third seat of Squad Four. It wasn't a surprise to see him there though, since he was Hiri-chu's subordinate, after all. Still, Xeion couldn't resist teasing his little sister again, just for the heck of it because he loved her reactions to them, being the silly rabbit she was in his eyes.
His gaze returned to his sister, Hiri-chu, as soon as he finished greeting Mikhail-san. Leaning in, Xeion parted the strands of hair that covered a part of Hiri-chu's right ear and whispered something to his little sister. "Ah, now I see why you need a 'password', Hiri-chu. You're finally getting yourself a boyfriend, eh?" teased Xeion, snickering a bit then pulled his head back to reveal his amused expression which soon turned to a giggle, then a laugh. Still, even though it was a joke, Xeion couldn't have known any better. Since he had just arrived, he had no clue as to what was going on before he came in. Maybe the two of them truly were hitting it off? Then again, maybe not. However, that didn't matter right now. To Xeion, what was important was what he was seeing in front of him, with his very own eyes -- his little sister, Hiri-chu, and Mikhail-san.
"So, am I interrupting something important?"

Gesturing towards one of the lush chairs, Mikhail offered Xeion a seat and spoke as he too took a seat where he was before. "Not particularly, just visiting, same as you I suppose." Smiling a little and laughing inwardly, Mikhail had caught the jests of Xeion with his highly sensative ears and could barely hold back the laughter himself. Sly devil him. If I didn't know any better, they could have the same birth parents. Doing a figure four with his legs, Mikhail grew comfy in the chair.
"I'm glad you survived Las Noches." Sitting in the chair, Mikhail felt a little bugged. He wasn't proud of his stupidity, he'd barely survived his Hueco Mundo vacation and the memories still made his bones ach. How I'd been out classed. Resting his chin in his hand and the elbow of that arm on his knee, Mikhail slipped into deep thought, his expression however barely readable. Eventually I'm going to have to go back and prove myself, hopefully I'll be ready.

Half ignoring what the two guys spoke about she glanced to where she had the water boiling, wondering how long until it would be ready. It was a good thing she'd put on enough for like... ten people. Now she began to wonder why she was boiling so much water.... She wasn't expecting any more visitors.... But she hadn't exactly expected anyone other then Mikhail when she'd put the water on. She shook the thought off just in time to feel Xeion's fingers part her hair by her ear and him whisper something.
Hearing what he said made her face turn bright red, in both blush and embarrassment. A part of her wanted to admit that she did like Mikhail, and... that he liked her back, they'd figured that out quite a while ago, but the rest of her told her to keep her mouth shut or risk being teased for the rest of eternity. Trying to recover quickly she jumped at the topic change.
"Oh of course not! I'm fixing some tea, do you want some? Don't worry, it wont burn or anything.... As I told Mikhail I can actually fix it with out anything bad happening."
Xeion was one of the most... knowledgeable when it came to Hirimi's cooking... or attempts to cooking. So it was probably unlikely that he would believe her easily... or at all. But she could always hope. Perhaps he'd risk trying it after so many failures already done by her.

-=There was a little rapture at the door, a knocking and some pawing along with a odd animal sound sounding something along the lines of "Kyuuuuuuu!... Kyuuu?", the inmistakable sound of Revlis's bunny, of course few have heard the little bunny make a sound or any noise at all. An aroma and scent of several diffrent pizza's could be smelled waffting in from the other side of the door. Some loud shouts could be heard on the other side aswell. =-
"Hey! Git! Ya know I dont like ya walkin infront of me when I cant seeya!"
"Kyuuu! Kyuuu..."
"Yeah yeah, you'll get your slice soon nuff, now c'mo-"
-=A loud sickening thud could be heard on the other side of the door. Silence followed along with a light knocking on the door by a pair of bunny paws. =-

Melohim strode up to the door of Hirimi's office, he was hoping to find out when he could learn some healing kido. As he walked down the hall he noticed Revlis and his bunny outside the the office door. "Hey Revlis, when did you learn to speak bunny?" He smiled as he approached his friend/rival and held out a paw for a handshake.

(( whee All the wierdos are showing up! YAY! *It's a compliment if I say your wierd, in case you didn't know. ^.^))
Hearing a third knock gave Hirimi a confused, yet happy look. She'd rarely had visitors to her office, and today she was going on a third. Leaving Xeion and Mikhail to do... well what ever it was they were doing, she crossed the room once more and slid the door open just in time to see and hear both Revlis and Melohim. She blinked, surprised it was both of them. Were all of her.... interesting friends coming to visitor at once? It was then she realized she didn't have very normal friends.... Quickly though she smiled.
"What are you.... Three up to?"
She made sure to count Revlis's bunny, she didn't want it to feel left out or anything.

Hiri-chu looked happy when a third knock came at the door as she immediately went for it to answer whoever was outside. Xeion simply stayed behind to watch the tea that his little sister had prepared while she did, all the while curious if Hiri-chu's tea-making skills had improved since the last time they had met. Not that it matter to Xeion though -- even if the food or drink Hiri-chu had prepared looked unsightly and that even by just taking one bite or drink from it would cause horrible genetic mutations, Xeion would still do it just so he couldn't hurt Hiri-chu's feelings since she obviously worked hard on the tea. Besides, it would probably be cool if one were to grow a second head. That way, you won't get ambushed. Ever.
But before that happens, he needed to make sure that his fears were unfounded.
Taking one cup, he poured himself some tea straight from the kettle to see if Hiri-chu's tea-making skills had improved. Even though the memory of last time's event was still fresh in his mind, Xeion didn't falter. He had a good run. This was just like committing suicide by drinking a cup of boiled cyanide, though that was a rather morbid way of putting it. Another, more appropriate take on this was willingly drink a cup of boiled cyanide. That was a much more pleasant way of putting it.
"Hiri-chu, I trust in your skills," Xeion muttered and took the cup, held the cup properly while not forgetting to turn the cup sideways three times before putting it nearer to his mouth. With a smile, he drank the tea quickly, being discreet so as nobody would notice, especially not Hiri-chu. If Xeion were to collapse, he didn't want anyone to know that it was Hiri-chu's tea that did it.
As quickly as he drank, he put the cup back on the counter and stood there, waiting for the supposed effects of the tea to kick in. Strangely though, it seemed as if there were no obvious side-effects this time. Xeion checked the rest of his head just to be sure, and fortunately, nothing unusual had popped up. In addition to that, he didn't feel nauseous nor anything for that matter -- he was just okay, standing there as usual. The only thing he considered as a side-effect was the fact that Hiri-chu's tea left a bitter taste in his mouth, similar to what would happen if one were to eat an orange's skin. Still, that was an absolutely stellar improvement compared to the last time; Hiri-chu's tea was actually consumable now! No need for hazmat suits to deal with hazardous chemicals.
Still going unnoticed, Xeion got some sugar, cream, and peppermint from Hiri-chu's nearby kitchen rack. With skillful hands, trained through countless hours in the kitchen, he added the sugar to the otherwise bitter tea; cream so as to give the tea a light and presentable texture and a creamy taste; and peppermint, so that the tea would have a tangy aftertaste spiciness that would make those who drink it want more after their first try. Tea wasn't just supposed to be delicious, it was also supposed to be a challenge. Plain tea was just boring -- something special was needed for a special occasion.
Before anyone would notice, Xeion fixed the kitchen and placed all the things he used back in their respective places so that Hiri-chu won't notice that her tea had been tampered with. Xeion wanted Hiri-chu to think that she had created a delicious blend and be praised by everyone there because it was such a new taste for something as simple as tea and would even regard her as someone who was extremely gifted at tea-making -- all of this just so Hiri-chu would smile. As a brother, seeing his little sister smile was the only thing he could ask for.

(Weirdos?! How dare you, I'd prefer the word "Oddity" Or "Abnormality" X3)
-= With Hirimi opening her doors a rather odd scene appeared. Revlis was collapsed on his rump with two pizza boxes at his side and a squished one to his left sprung open. Several stray slices of Pineapple and Ham pizza was plastered to a wall, littered the ground and even stained Revlis's bunny's clean cut sheen fur. The bunny stood on her hind legs looking up at Hirimi as if it was asking for some help to be cleaned and the food stuffs brought in. A slight comical rage could be seen building in Revlis's facial expression as his right hand drew closer to a slice of pizza on the ground. =-
"You lil- gah! I told ya not to walk infront of me!"
"Kyuuuuuu!"
-=In a fit of rage Revlis snatched up the pizza slice just as his bunny bounded up into the air jumping up onto Hirimi's head. Revlis whipped the pizza slice at the bunny, however the bunny was a tad too fast for Rev's adept throwing skills. The pizza slice missed its mark and landed splat into Hirimi's face. The bunny hopped off and ran towards Xeion trying to find a place to hide=-
"o.o... Oh erm... Pizza anyone? ehehe...."
-= Revlis empty mindedly reached out taking Melohim's hand and with a nodd aswell. =-

With all the commotion, Mikhail seized the opportunity to slip out the window unnoticed. Crowds and overly eccentric individuals, not my thing. Leaping from the sill of the window and into the bushes, Mikhail dashed off near silently. His destination was for the time being, wherever he ended up. Typical of Mikhail though, he was never one to plan ahead really, more of a "go with the flow" sort of man despite his calculative tendencies and fear of the unknown. "It was like a convention in there, a convention of the most odd people in the Sereitei...I'd surely be one of the main attractions but I'm not one to steal the spotlight."
Snicking to himself, Mikhail slipped into the sanctuary that was his room. Locking the deadbolt, he slid like a baseball player across his woodfloors to a lush conglomerance of pillows that sat in the corner. Literally burrying himself amoungst the plush and overly stuff sewn pieces of cloth, Mikhail closed his eyes and relaxed. Slowly, his mind slipped away into a shallow dream that in itself was quiet shallow and undetailed.
