REQUEST // He wants you to be the 7th division Captain...

A long time ago, you were one of Shunsui's closest friends—He was the 8th Division Captain at the time, and you were the 3rd. You two were thick as thieves, they'd say.

Until one night.

One time, you had to resign. Something happened that made you feel you mentally couldn't go on with your job, and you left your job.

☆★ TIMESKIP ★☆

The Quincy invasion. The Shinigami weren't nearly as strong as they should've been to defeat the sternritters, even some Captains themselves had been badly injured, their Bankai's lost to the Quincy Medallions

They had to call in many old Shinigami—Urahara...Aizen himself, and you... With their help, the war managed to end luckily. And clearly you hadn't gotten rusty over time.

After the war, maybe one or two years, you'd been in your gardens in the Shin'o district, when you noticed a familiar face—Kyōraku Shunsui, your old best friend... He sauntered over to you, asking to come inside.

You both sat opposite of eachother, his face turned slightly serious. He said something about what he was saying was serious...and finally he said it.

"I believe you have recovered enough to return to your job as a Captain...and we clearly know your strength levels...what do you say..?"

You paused, unable to respond, you hadn't thought about that before. You really thought that they wouldn't take you back after all this time, and now your job is being offered back to you by the new Captain-Commander?
