He Is Very Bland, Yet I Hate Him Passionately.

[amarissia]

Okay, I have no idea where I am in Bleach. Close to episode 30. We've encountered Ichimaru, whose snideness and smirking I immediately distrusted. I've also made up my mind to dislike every character who's mean to OneFive, so odds are I'll be frowning at a LOT of people.

Cloud: "People should be nice to Ichigo. He's nice, just grumpy." *makes grumpy face, giggles*
Genesis: "More importantly, we got our first glimpse of Captain Chibi. Can I have it?"
Sephy: "NO."
Cloud: "Shiro-chan!"

Cloud, does anyone but you call him that? I don't even remember his first name, but -

Cloud: *hums, twirls*
Sephy: "Almost bedtime."

In non-Choir news, Amarissia has been humorously attacked by a squirrel and put on Abilify. Um, those two events aren't related, though that would have made for a hilarious psychiatrist visit. Just letting you know that when clung to by a squirrel, gently shake it off and give it a soft scolding (or slightly loud, if you need to talk over Cloud squeeing), and I have a new medication to blame if my entries don't make sense. Also, it can apparently KO my kidneys, so gotta watch out for that. And have blood tests. GAH.

Zack: "I'd feel sorrier for you if you didn't put me through pervy, scary stuff all the time."

Blood tests. IN A LAB.

Zack: *being dangle-squeezed by Angeal* "Not fair."

Was that a campus squirrel? It seems to me the rodents around universities are some of the boldest little furry bastards around.

[kel-fish.livejournal.com]

Ugh. My client actually had to stop taking Abilify because her kidneys are already failing big time and the doctor said, "When you show signs of failure, stop taking it." Two months later, signs.

I have a feeling Bleach would take up just as much of my time as Dragon Age. And now I'm watching KKM (gradually) with Casey anyway...

No socks with sandals. Heh, Gaffigan...

What are your thoughts on Byakuya? He is my favorite. FAVORITE.

[marchwarden23.livejournal.com]

An ex got attacked by a squirrel once. INDOORS. The fuzzy git ran into a clothing store we were at in the middle of a busy shopping area (what trees?) and climb a dress hanging on the wall. His reaction was to grab it around the middle, pry it off, proceed to get his thumb munched, yell "YOU LITTLE FUCKING BASTARD", and whip it out the door into traffic. The subsequent trip to the ER to get a tetanus shot was the end of it, but left us and the med techs with an amusing story.

The squirrel was probably deeply traumatised and will never look at red and black jacquard the same way again.

I do have sympathy for you; I used to be a lot more squeamish about blood draws and needles. Having to do some of my own injections desensitized me pretty quick. Now they have to be really inept before it bothers me, like the hospital phlebotomist who left my arm looking like I'd been attacked by a toothless wolverine. Could've done a better job myself with a spork.

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Yes yes... Ichimaru is a creepy one. I gave me the creeps... still does. Really, but if you watch the little Shinigami Illustration Book things whatever they are called at the end of the credits he can sometimes be entertaining and funny. Oh and don't worry, you'll hopefully warm up to these people... they aren't always mean. XD

I am also curious on your opinions of Byakuya, he is my original fav and is still one of my all time favs. Ah, dun worry... so many episodes to go and so many characters and people to come in contact with. XD

Sage: -crosses arms-

Sorry about the blood tests and stuffs those aren't fun. -gives lollipops and other candies- And I must say... I've never been attacked by a squirrel lol. I'm sure I'd panic because I got bit by a turtle once and paniced. I always panic. XD

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

A park squirrel. This thing had no fear at all. It was playing hide-and-seek with me for close to an hour.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Yike. I'll keep that in mind.

Oh, KKM will suck out your soul. :)

"What am I, German?"

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Hey, I thought you'd left us for the soap world completely. :)

Not much of an opinion yet. I kinda like his hair, but he seems like a total dick. OOOH, he could be a Sephy-cousin...

*hugs*

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

LOL...my squirrel showed no remorse. And, like a battered woman, I will most certainly return to do battle with him again. But this time I'll feed him more.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Heh heh, spork. I miss sporks.

I don't like blood, at all. Needles make me woozy.

How's the immobile life? Gone stark raving, wearing-undies-on-your-head crazy yet? :)

*crashing in background*

That would be Cloud and Ryu-chan. Shall I send them your way? :)

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

His smile is really creepy. I'm pretty sure he's a sociopath.

Byakuya...everyone seems to like him, but I haven't seen him do much yet, just act like an uncaring asshole.

Zack: "Hmph. Jerk."

Well, I have a long way to go. :)

*noms candies* Zachy, you probably have to get needle-jabbed a lot, huh?

Genesis: "Poor little thing." *pats, slips other arm around Sage's waist*

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

I agree, his smile and squinty eyes gave me the chills when I first saw him.

Oh yeah, you wont actually get to see much good in him for a couple more episodes. To be honest though... his uncaring jerkiness doesn't change much. XD

Zach: -nods- "Twice a day. More if I go to the doctor then they take bloods and stuff. I'm pretty used to it now." -smiles- "Aiden helped me a lot."
Sage: -small smile-

[silverin-lo.livejournal.com]

Byakuya is... big meany. He has some nicer moments later on, though. Not much, but there´s something ;o)
But he´s just hilarious in the Golden cups, at the endings of the episodes - they start later on. It seems everyone wants to party at the Kuchiki estate XD And there are very funny moments with your chibi captain, too.
And it´s true a lot of people is mean to Ichigo ::frowns at them::

[robonun.livejournal.com]

Oh, I always was crazy, now I just have to be a little more creative in my madness. I try not to take it out on Zack in Crisis Core too much. XD Go ahead and send the lads over. My birthday is Thursday and there will be ice cream and cake. They can even meet my in-laws. They're pretty cool, so don't terrorize them the way you do to my neighbors.

[kel-fish.livejournal.com]

Geh, it already has. The only reason I couldn't finish it all right away is because the discs Casey brought with her belong to someone else. Damnit.

[meowwl.livejournal.com]

Gin Ichimaru is indeed a creepy little sucker. I have yet to see an excuse for him, let alone a reason...as a character, he seems to exist only to show the difference between image and reality. He's uber creepy because he wears a mask that nobody can see. On that level, he's even creepier than Mayuri, who gives me Hojo-ish heebee jeebees. Mayuri at least wears his mask obviously.

Byakuya is extremely rulebound, and overly class conscious, as he'd been taught from childhood...Think warlord or head of a great house, in Japan, two centuries ago or so. There is some reason for his hideboundness that I won't spoil for you, but you'll find out about near the end of the Soul Society arc. It's not altogether due to the reasons I mentioned before...He really is a stubborn ass of a man, with a metaphorical pole up his butt and superiority complex a mile wide. He has a couple of redeeming qualities, one being his sheer elegant and effective badassedness, another being the ability to, with sufficient reason, change his mind. He gets a little better, at least around family.

But frankly, I think the reason most people like him is just that he's so damned pretty to look at! His voice actors don't hurt the smexiness either.

He is indeed a Sephy cousin, in that he's a rather cold and ambivalent figure...He may be one of the good guys, but he'll still wipe you off the face of the earth if you impune his honor.

On a side note, watch your blood sugar with abilify too...it can make some people functionally diabetic. If you start getting really thirsty of a sudden, or peeing a lot, head in to get it checked.

[silverin-lo.livejournal.com]

I just can´t resist: here are links to two parts of the Bleach musical - there are really fun moments with chibi captain Toshiro, even creepy Gin (he´s hilarious!) and lots of others. The first vid - you can skip the singing part, if you want to about 3:28 (Gin´s appearence) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLtzGVf7g20&feature=related

and here´s the second in which the uber bad guy gets to sing duet with Gin in a place of a female Shinigami, and afterwards chibi Toshiro gets mad, lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtGFLYqXlJI&feature=related

[monalovely.livejournal.com]

Nothing like drug induced jibberjabberlaklfjlkajs;ldfj is there? :D

Ewwwwww, I hate blood tests (so why the HELL did I give blood????), but alas, I have only one kidney, so I'm always having stuff sucked out of me. Make sure you ask for a good nurse, I always do. Curse my deep veins, if I have a med student trying to DIG for them one more time, I'm going to bite someone.

At one point, they thought I had a blood disorder and ordered a bone marrow biopsy, which was THE MOST HORRENDOUS THING I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED. I almost cracked a tooth through the belt I was biting. No wonder my blood pressure skyrockets every time I go. AAAAAAAAAAAGH. That and a kidney biopsy. I hate having so much stuff wrong with me. :(

Oh my, a squirrel!!!!! Hmmm *reminisces the scene from the Iron Giant* hheeehehehehehehe.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

...I am so very disturbed. DUDE.

[silverin-lo.livejournal.com]

Oh well, it´s fun ;o)

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

...so Byakuya is a good guy? Really? I'm relieved, since he does seem interesting.

Cloud: "Maybe he needs hugs." *bounce bounce*

Don't worry, my doc is sending me for blood tests in about a month to check things out. :)

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Zack: "Thanks." *grin* "Just have me take it out on Genesis."
Cloud: "YAY!"
Ryu-chan: "NO DA!"

*loud bounding*

Just hit them with these trank darts if they get out of hand.

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Well, Byakuya is at least interesting...I may end up liking him even if he is a jerk. :) I'm eager to elarn more about him, like how that metaphorical pole got jammed up his ass.

Twice a DAY?!

Genesis: *pats* "Poor little lamb."
Cloud: *big eyes* "Doesn't it hurt?"

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

You might... he's a very interesting person and you do learn kind of why he is the way he is. He doesn't exactly change but once you learn more about him you might like him more.

Zach: -nods- "It used to be really bad but I'm used to it now so its ok."

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Cloud: *pouts, looks worried* "But you have enough blood, right? What if you run out?"
Sephy: *pats him*

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Zach: "I don't get blood taken twice a day!" -laughs- "I get insilin shots twice a day. Sometimes I have to prick my fingers and test my blood but I dont get blood taken all the time. Only every few months." -smiles- "I guess I didn't say that right. Sorry."

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Cloud: "Ooooh." *hugs Zach's arm* "Do the shots make sure you don't get shocked?"
Zack: "Sounds rough. I mean, we get mako treatments, but shots every day? Yike."
Genesis: *from bedroom, with Sage* "I wonder if insulin makes his blood taste different."
Angeal: "None of your business, Gen."
Genesis: "Maybe it affects the taste of semen too. Well, Sagey, shall we ask Aiden, or are you rested enough to go again right away?" *purrs*
Cloud: "What are they doing in there?"

...laps. Running laps. Yes. :)

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Zach: -nods- "They help me stay healthy and keep me from going into shock." -to Zack- "It was hard at first but, like I said, Aiden helped me a lot. It still hurts, especially since I haven't been having Aiden help but I'm used to it."
Sage: "It does make his blood taste different... so I've heard from others who have taken a taste from other diabetics. It makes his blood smell different too."
Zach: -blushes- "Genesis is so gross."
Sage: "We will have to ask Aiden later... he's super grumpy when he's sick. Plus..." -licks lips- "I think I can go another round. I always can go for more."

XD XD

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Cloud: "Do you get better, like with a cold, or will you have to have shots forever?" *sad*
Zack: "Genesis is very gross. He actually holds some of it back around you guys."
Genesis: *cackles, pounces on Sage, catlike*
Cloud: *swings Zach's hand* "When Aiden is a vampire, does he drink your blood?"

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Zach: "I don't think I'll get better. I'll always have this problem but there is a chance I won't have to take shots as much." -shrugs- "It doesn't bother me."
Sage: -squeels- "You are so flexible... it drives me mad!" -licks-
Zach: -to Zack- "I believe that. He seems worse than Sage and Sage is pretty gross." -to Cloud- "Aiden never has drank my blood, he claims he never will. He says if he does it will make him go crazy and he could kill me." -frowns- "He doesn't drink from any people because of that. He drank from blood packs for so long that he can't drink from people anymore. Which is good."

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Cloud: *hugs Zach*
Genesis: *cackles* "Sometime I'll show you what I can do on the gymnastic equipment in the 1st Class gym, you'll like that..."
Cloud: "That's good that Aiden doesn't want to drink people. Genesis says drinking blood is fun, but it sounds icky."
Sephy: "Don't listen to Genesis. Ever."

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Sage: "Oooooo, sounds great. Can you teach me some things?" -pouts-
Zach: -laughs- "It is good he doesn't hurt people... at I agree with Seph. You probably shouldn't listen to Genesis or Sage."

[amarissia.livejournal.com]

Genesis: "Oooh, yes. We can have such fun on the vault, it's nice and padded. And eventually, we'll work our way up to the uneven bars."
Zack: "I can't even imagine how that would work."
Angeal: "Good."
Cloud: "Genesis doesn't talk to me much anyway...but sometimes he brings me toys from Midgar, so I like him okay. And Sage is awesome! Silverstream thinks so too, and he's never wrong about people."

[emokirby24.livejournal.com]

Sage: -evil grin- "I can't wait."

XD Genesis can make ANYTHING dirty... thats pretty interesting.

Zach: "I can see why you guys dont talk much. I feel awkward most of the time... and Sage isn't much different."
Sage: "Of course I'm awesome!" -cheesy smile-
