ABOUT THE CHARACTER MEME
Permissions
Threadhopping with this character - yes/no/other?: YES. Forever.
Hugging this character?: ....You can, but she'll probably freak out and punch you (If you're a guy) and be awkward (if your a girl).
Flirting with this character?: Of course! She probably won't get it and if she does she will probably flip her lid and go all tsundere on your ass (and try to kill you).
Giving this character a kiss?: I play her as she's never been kissed, so she'd probably react badly if you're not who she loves and you kiss her.
Badtouching: ... Probably not, she's more likely to punch your lights out than let you continue, when she doesn't feel any love for you.
Lovers: Only if it developes slowly. Hiyori is the type of girl who is a secret romantic, she's very very VERY closed about it however... but if you slowly 'woo' her with flowers, dates and show her that you're serious, than it might develope, but... She is more than likely never going to jump a man/woman (she's... flexible) that she's never known. She has huge trust issues and if you DO manage to get passed that -- you'll also probably have to deal with the rest of the Visoreds glaring down at you. Looking at you Shinji.
Punching this character (provided they can fight back): YES. FOREVER. YES. Hiyori lives for fights, she will also beat the crap out of whoever she damn well pleases, so punching her is a go. Just be warned, she has a violent temperament.
Is there anything you do not want mentioned near this character?: Aizen. Ever. She is played post-time skip most times and thusly, she's extremely bitter (more so than she was before) about how the final battle went with Aizen. She can't let it go and will most likely try to kill someone who brings him up.
Easiest way to get on her good side: Give her pudding. No. Seriously, but just remember, getting on her good side doesn't mean she'll trust you right away. In fact, knowing her, just because you've given her pudding doesn't even completely mean you'll be on that list right away.
Easiest Way To Get On Her Bad Side: Mention Aizen, ask her if she crushes on Shinji, call her a snaggletooth or bad talk her "family."
Can I Hack Her Journal?: ...I'll have to say no for this one. She's pretty much the type of girl who wouldn't be able to do much more than post.
Can She Hack My Journal?: See above.
Fourth Wall Breakage: It depends on the person, but sure.
Can I shapeshift/bodyswap/etc?: Ask/Tell me what you have in mind and I'll give you an answer.
Maim/Murder/Death: Gonna have to take this as a case-by-case situation. Murder and Death.... it depends. Really. Maim... you can try.
Blood: Yes! She lives for fighting.

Body and Appearance
1. Describe the character's height and build. Is she heavyset, thin, short, rangy? Hiyori is a petite woman, she is about 4 feet, 4 inches tall. Though she is small, she is strong, though it is hard to tell due to the fact that her muscles look almost non-existent, but there is meat on those bones. She is very knobby, too small to be like a woman, but too big to be a child; somewhere in between. Her breasts aren't really all that noticeable to most, leaving one to wonder if that this girl is actually a boy. She has freckle dotted cheeks and a stray-fang that leads Shinji/Ichigo to calling her "snaggletooth" more than once; both making her seem much younger than she was. Her hair is a pale blond, pulled up into two pony tails, heaving her hair up over ears that just protrude a little too much.

2. How old is she? N/A. Somewhere between 200 and 400, but appears between 13-16.

3. Describe her posture. Does she carry himself well or does she slouch? She carries herself in with a straight back and stiff shoulders, showing off that she's proud and fighting, but slouches when she's alone or with her friends.

4. How is her health? Is she fit or out of shape? Any illnesses or conditions? Any physical disabilities? She is extremely fit, able to fight for hours without getting over-exhausted, but she is prone to getting hurt quiet a bit due to her lack of self control, a big example of this is when Gin managed to cut her in half during the climax with the fight with Aizen. After timeskip, we can speculate that while she was bifurcated by Gin -- that she would possible have a large scar left where the incision was made -- as well as a possible disability due to it, however, as she has not been seen as of yet after the time skip -- this is only speculation.

If I play her post-time skip, she is plagued by pain sometimes from where her scar is, but beyond that feels she is ready to keep moving forwards -- even if the others do not.

5. How does she move? Is she clumsy, graceful, tense, fluid? It depends, sometimes she will move with a tense fluidity, others she will be clumsy and generally very arrogantly.

6. How attractive is this character physically? How does he perceive himself in the mirror? To those who know her, they would simply see a tomboy-ish little monkey. To others, she would come off as an untouchable tsundere loli. She does not find herself extremely attractive and in her head, no one else does either. It is a thing that both annoys her and slightly pleases her. One some level, she wishes she would be seen as a fighting beauty -- though Shinji has basically run through it through her head, possibly unwittingly, that she is not cute in the least and pretends to accept it. It pleases her in the way that it means that while no one would find her attractive -- she would be free to do what she loves. Train and fight.

7. Describe her complexion. Dark, light, clear, scarred? She is light -- but not completely pale per say. She is covered in childish freckles that make her seem even younger than she is.

8. Describe her hair: color, texture, style. Her hair color is pale blonde, it seems to have a mind of it's own in her opinion, so she always sticks them in piggy-tails and puts a few bobby-pins in to keep the bangs out of her face. The texture is almost unnaturally soft, despite being a tomboy, she does take pride in how well she takes care of her hair, even if no one notices (Lather, rinse, repeat, baby!).

9. What color are her eyes? Her eyes are brown, almost akin to the color amber.

10. Does the character have any other noteworthy features? Yeah, she has freckles on her cheeks, a scowl on her lips and a pink jogging suit with her name in Kanji on it (Depending on when I play her). Another very noticeable feature is how fierce her eyes look. She looks constantly angry, almost as if someone is doing something to annoy her just by breathing, her eyes are hard a lot of the time, though they are expressive either way -- though have (a lot of) moments of being the window to the girl just beneath the surface. In a way, her eyes are the best way to tell how Hiyori is feeling -- if you can't read them for any reason, it generally means that she's having a conflict within herself.

11. What are her chief tension centers? Her back, neck and forearms.

12. What is the character's wardrobe like? Casual, dressy, utilitarian? Bright colors, pastels, neutrals? Is it varied, or does he have six of the same suit? She tends to wear jumpsuits and the like, if she is played pre-timeskip, she wears a pink and white jumpsuit with her name in kanji upon it, with a white sleeveless shirt underneath it and sandals. However if she's played post timeskip, she is prone to wearing a blue shorts and tanktop, black vest and sandals. But occasionally could be found in any of the other two outfits that I have created here.

13. Do her clothes fit well? Does she seem comfortable in them? Her clothes fit well enough, some being looser than others due to how small she is (she constantly has a fit over this, finding it almost too annoying that she needs to shop in the children's section sometimes). She most definitely feels comfortable in them, no matter what she's wearing she needs to always feels good in what she wears.

14. Does she dress the same on the job as she does in her free time? If not, what are the differences? She dresses however she goddamned pleases, she doesn't see the point in dressing up in anything that isn't comfortable for her. Hiyori would most likely rather punch someone for even trying to get her into something she wasn't comfortable in.

15. You knew it was coming: Boxers, briefs or commando? None of those, she wears panties or perhaps boy-shorts. Various styles and colors, she does have a particular pair (more of a set, she has multiples of them) that she adores, it being blue and red boy-shorts with a monkey that's smoking on the front and the ass of the monkey on the back. It's overly cutesy in the way it's drawn.


Speech
1. What does this character's voice sound like? High-pitched, deep, hoarse? It's in the middle spectrum of the female vocal range, but with a hoarse quality to it, especially when she's yelling at people.

2. How does she normally speak? Loud, soft, fast, evenly? Does she talk easily, or does he hesitate? Loud, obnoxiously, she doesn't think about what her words might end up doing to those around her. She speaks her mind, a complete mind-to-mouth reaction from her.

3. Does the character have a distinct accent or dialect? Any individual quirks of pronunciation? Any, like, you know, verbal tics? She does, she drops "Gs" at the end of words such as "nothing" (would be nothin') and says "Fer", "ya", "ta", "tha" instead of "for, you, to/too, and The". She says 'Ain't' and tends to drop letters at the begining of words like 'around' or 'about'. She also drops 'me' for m'-word' or the I've for 've'-word- and 'r' for or/are and 'n' for and.

4. What language/s does she speak, and with how much fluency? Japanese (Extremely fluent due to it being what she learnt when she was alive and how she was taught in Seiteirei), English (she is fluent in this, only due to 25 years she spent alone wandering in the Americana. It's possible this is where she gets her extremely relaxed way of speaking).

5. Does she switch languages or dialects in certain situations? Not as far as I've seen/played her doing.

6. Is she a good impromptu speaker, or does she have to think about her words? She just spits out whatever comes to mind, she has no use for thinking over her words -- unless it is a situation where she absolutely needs to convey how serious she is and beating the crap out of someone isn't enough, but even then she has to say what just comes to her head -- just with a tiny more bit of thinking involved.

7. Is she eloquent or inarticulate? Under what circumstances might this change? Extremely inarticulate, a good case of a 'foot-in-mouth' type speaker -- having to force herself to say what she actually means than what comes to her head. She has extreme problems trying to get the right meaning to whatever she says. She stumbles through words awkwardly, she's never sure on how to say what she actually means to anyone. It bothers her a lot -- as she would love to get what she's feeling out, though it comes off as stammering and mixed up to those who hear her. There are few people who actually can get the true meaning out of her words -- Shinji, for one -- and understand that it's hard for her to get those emotions out without going off in a completely different direction when the conversation gets to hard for her to continue.


Mental and Emotional
1. How intelligent is this character? Is she book-smart or street-smart? Definitely street smart, she isn't the type to sit around and read books when there is fights just begging to be picked.

2. Does she think on her feet, or does she need time to deliberate? She just reacts to the situation, even if her response leads to something bad for herself. She has a fight-or-fight type reaction to everything, there is no 'flight' about her. A very huge case of this would once again be just before the point where she was cut in half, where she simply reacted and rose to the bait that Aizen was setting out for her. The fact of the matter is, that if there is something annoying her, she will react or if there is something that needs to be done, she'll do it. She won't think about it, she'll just get it over and done with no matter the consequence.

3. Describe the character's thought process. Is she more logical, or more intuitive? Idealistic or practical? Hiyori most definitely thinks with her gut, if it feels right, she does it. She has no particular fighting style because of it, her swords-play could almost be considered a swordsman's version of "Drunken Kung-Fu". However, she prefers to think with her gut -- to react without thinking, thinking, in her head, would only complicate situations more than they already are, thus she forgoes the thoughts and simply jumps right into the action. She is definitely more practical than idealistic, knowing how the world works and that she firmly believes that 'Nothing can last forever' -- that's the practical part of her. Though her idea of practicality is much different than say, a normal persons. Where they might think things through -- Hiyori will cut to the end of the chase and just react, as she finds this is the best way of getting what she wants and/or needs.

4. What kind of education has the character had? As a Shinigami, she was trained at Shino Academy in Seireitei. Otherwise, very little. She doesn't put a lot of stock into the traditional method of education, preferring to feel her way through everything instead of sticking her nose to a book.

5. What are her areas of expertise? What, if anything, is she interested in learning more about? ... Mentally? None. She knows it too, she prefers leaving the thinking to those who actually have the patience to it, or even just Shinji, but she is able to predict others movements when she's watching them fight.

6. Is she an introvert or an extrovert? ... A bit of both, she is an introvert in the way that she's socially awkward, unable to voice how she feels and comes off as extremely untouchable, however, she's a extrovert in the way that she has no problems beating the crap out of anyone and is overly loud and obnoxious.

7. Describe the character's temperament. Is she even-tempered or does she have mood swings? Cheerful or melancholy? Laid-back or driven? She is extremely angry all the time. Some may argue that it's the only feeling she might be able to hold on to beyond fleeting happiness and depression. Her rage lingers on the flick of a switch, it's violent and she is not above using underhanded tactics to enact such rage upon whoever sparked it on her. She doesn't trust easy, she never has. As a result of it, she treats everyone disrespectfully, (though she expect respect back towards herself) a trait that she finds reflected in Ichigo (And is extremely jealous of everything about him).

8. How does she respond to new people or situations? Is she suspicious, relaxed, timid, enthusiastic? She reacts with complete and utter suspicion, unable to get it through her head that possibly they might want to be her friend in any possible way. She is often critical of those she first meets, telling Orihime and Chad that while she was jealous of the meaning of their names, she would have to ill them because the conversation was becoming pointless. Her anger helps fuel the fact that she finds herself so unlikeable that she cannot comprehend why others would even want to get close enough to her to get to now her.

9. Is she more likely to act, or to react? React, she will react to everything you do, so much so that sometimes you can't be sure if it's just not an 'act' instead of a 'react'. She is extremely unable do much else than just that -- if she is teased, baited or anything of the sort; she simply will react. There is nothing there showing otherwise and as such, it's why she was bifurcated by Gin due to allowing Aizen to crawl under her skin and burrow himself there like a tick and poke every button for just what he craved -- It's a extreme weakness of hers, as she puts everyone, not just herself; in danger and forces those around her to pick up the pieces. She admits that she was out right impatient as her "last" words to Shinji in the fight with Aizen and is clearly aware that this is one of her huge faults.

10. Which is her default: fight or flight? Fight. She believes that the best defense, is a flawless offense. As such, if you challenge her, she will do everything in her power to defeat you and shove it in your face (and then kill you, if you're an enemy, of course). She takes her fights very seriously, often seeing the option of bloodshed more appealing than running away and regrouping -- Again, she knows this, as she admits to Shinji she was sorry for reacting to the taunts of Aizen and being severely hurt. However, one could argue that this is one of her defining traits -- To the point of it being a shining quality, as she will never back down, no matter the odds, even if she loses. Some may admire her for that sort of strength, while others could call her arrogant and cocky for believing that running isn't in her code of honor.

11. Describe the character's sense of humor. Does she appreciate jokes? Puns? Gallows humor? Bathroom humor? Pranks? She has a strange sense of humor, one that is rarely seen as "nice" in anyway. She will resort of pranks for no other reason than someone ate her goddamned pudding (She has more than once replaced all the shampoo in the warehouse with glue, glued all of Shinji's furniture to the ceiling, replaced his Jazz LPs with children's ones). However, when it comes to teasing from Shinji/anyone, she can dish it out but simply cannot take it. At all. Ever.

12. Does the character have any diagnosable mental disorders? If yes, how does she deal with them? If her anger is a mental disorder, yes, she does. And she deals with it via taking it out during training or fights with everyone and anyone.

13. What moments in this character's life have defined her as a person? She has many, the time she realized that Urahara was staying as her captain and she learnt to trust him, becoming an visored -- or even getting bifurcated. They all help shape her as a person and help her trust people a little more -- especially Shinji.

14. What does she fear? Never being able to fight again, this is the biggest fear as she never feels better than when she's fighting someone seriously -- the blood-lust that fills her makes her remember that while she isn't a part of her old family any more -- she still has the other Visoreds, Urahara+co and now Ichigo. She wants to be able to protect them -- though more often than not she finds Shinji protecting her.
It's very clear that losing Shinji/her other family is another fear -- she reacted badly to them all being called dead, in my opinion, wasn't because she was targeted, she reacted because her family was anything but dead. They all lived, breathed, they all were so jovial -- She finds herself jealous of it more often than not, but she would rather die than have them insulted in front of her.
Shinji, she fears him in a very weird way, not in the way that is most common with being 'attributed' to the word, but in the way that she finds it unsettling that he reads her so well, he knows her inside out and sometimes even what she's thinking. It unnerves her when he pretends to be speaking to everyone, but every word he says is directed right at her. She fears him because she doesn't know what she'd do without him.

15. What are her hopes or aspirations? ... She doesn't have any, actually. She floats along at this point. She only wants to get stronger and stronger -- she finds she doesn't have time for much else than that.

16. What is something she doesn't want anyone to find out about her? That she's a romantic -- She's never been kissed, at all. She wants her first kiss to be with the person she loves and she doesn't want anyone to know due to the extreme teasing that Shinji, Love and anyone else would give her for it. She wouldn't be able to stand it if someone she didn't love tried to steal it from her, even to the point of reacting with almost killing them.
During the 50 years she spent apart from the other visoreds, she was alone, she worked at seedy bars, etc, but when she had the time to herself, she would sit out on a hill near by and stare at the stars, she made constellations from all over the place, all creating a intricate story that she doesn't know if anyone would even care to hear -- and no one's asked why she sometimes sits on the top of the warehouse at night and just looks at those stars either. They don't ask, she doesn't tell.

Relationships
1. Describe this character's relationship with her parents. She doesn't remember her biological parents, but her former Taicho, Hikifune; was the closest she's had. She treated the woman with respect that no one else would ever get. She refuses to treat anyone else on that same level, though she does 'respect' other people in some vague way.

2. Does the character have any siblings? What is/was their relationship like? Some could argue that all of the Visoreds are siblings and that Hiyori will kick the crap out of them for nothing less than them being stupid in her eyes, but she loves them all. She would lay her life on the ground for them and protect them when they need it -- Otherwise, she does not have any siblings.

3. Are there other blood relatives to whom she is close? Are there ones she can't stand? Nope, she's never known any of them.

4. Are there other, unrelated people whom he considers part of her family? What are her relationships with them? YES, Urahara and Co, The Visoreds and the umbrella's been sprung out to even cover Ichigo. With Urahara and Co she has a strange relationship there, she runs there when she's angry and needs a place to hide out from the rest of the Visoreds, finding Yoruichi somewhat pleasing to talk to -- and almost finding Urahara's familiarity with how she works comforting.
With most of the other visoreds, she treats them like they're her brothers and sisters, she would protect them and they would protect her, she would gladly lay her life down for them.
Shinji, however -- is a harder case to describe. They tease and fight each other, though they both are considered to have a 'schoolyard-romance' by the rest of the others in some ways. She does believe at some points, that it's them against the world; that they will have each other's back no matter what happens between them. I am unsure if she even knows what to call her feelings towards Shinji, possibly due to never knowing what love exactly was supposed to feel like, but she knows that the other is her best friend and she would rather protect him and be killed than have it the other way around. She trusts him more than anyone else in the world.
Ichigo; it is a very weird relationship between them -- she sees so many parallels between them both, though the way he handles everyone, or the way everyone loves him drives her insane with envy. She's jealous of them and the way he can be so forwards with her words, while she simply stumbles along -- but he's a visored, so she considers him her brother by default.

5. Who is/was the character's best friend? How did they meet? Hirako Shinji is definitely this girl's bestfriend, it's unclear how they met each other, but they did know each other before BTP arc in Bleach. It's shown that they care so much about each other -- one could say so easily that the only reason Shinji came was because Hiyori was out there.

6. Does she have other close friends? Yes, the rest of the Visored, while she trusts them and they trust her, they are not on the same level as Shinji to her.

7. Does she make friends easily, or does she have trouble getting along with people? She can't make friends at all, she's jealous of those who can. It's partly because of how she views herself, finding herself nothing more than a crass monkey that is completely unlikable and violent; that she simply assumes that no one would want to get close to her. It doesn't help that she has trust issues and is very suspicious of those who do try to get close to her, seeing it as some sort of cruel joke that she somehow managed to warrant for herself.

8. Which does she consider more important: family or friends? Family. Above everything, there is family. She would die for her family, to protect them or their honor.

9. Is the character single, married, divorced, widowed? Has she been married more than once? Single, oh, my, she's never even been kissed. Let alone ever married anyone or had sex with someone.

10. Is she currently in a romantic relationship with someone other than a spouse? No, she views cheating as a down right stupid move, to her, if she was married and loved her spouse, then why would she even look at anyone else? Marriage is sacred to her, as is kissing and dating, she only wants to get married once and to the person who would stay with her forever.

11. Who was her first crush? Who is her latest? ... She doesn't believe she's ever crushed on anyone, though onlookers might say that Shinji has been her first and only crush... yet, to her, as someone that has no idea what it's supposed to feel like, she would assume that what she feels for Shinji is nothing short of normal for two as close as them.

12. What does she look for in a romantic partner? She says looks for someone who treats her like a woman, understands that she doesn't need to be protected. They would have to stay at home and not ask questions if she came home late, someone who'll make her dinner and take her out on whims -- typical girly things.
Yet, what she wants deep down is completely different, she wants someone who can take her words and fists, punch for punch, someone who'll have her back through everything and take it upon himself to cool her down if she edges into an explosion. They wouldn't bat an eye when/if she came home with a broken nose and a bloodied cheek, only access the damage and fix it up and let her collapse on him if she needs it. She wants him to be snarky, witty, a jack ass in his own right, but still caring when it's needed. They gotta catch her when she falls and put her back together when she breaks -- most of all, they need to trust her as much as she trusts them.

13. Does the character have children? Grandchildren? If yes, how does she relate to them? If no, does she want any? No, she doesn't have children, but yes, oh god, yes. She wants children, she would love nothing more than a few kids to teach everything she knows and train to be as great as her, though most around her would never realize it or ever think that she'd make a good mother.

14. Does she have any rivals or enemies? She views every new person as an enemy at first, but mainly Aizen and his crew.

15. What is the character's sexual orientation? Flexible, she is not the type to go and jump into a bed with a random woman or anything -- but she is open to the fact that maybe whoever she falls in love with may be female, though she finds herself looking at men more often than not, always finding herself jealous of girls with bigger breasts.

16. How does she feel about sex? How important is it to her? She feels that it should be between two adults that love each other enough to know that they'll be together for a good long time. She's a virgin and waiting for just that -- hell, she's never ever been kissed. Yet, that isn't to say that she's never gotten off by her own ministrations, she is a woman with urges and she does give into them sometimes.

17. What are her turn-ons? Turn-offs? Weird bedroom habits? Her turn ons are strange, she's not aroused by naked bodies or as such, what makes her aroused is scents and sounds. The smell of certain colognes and foods are enough to make her squirm in her spot, certain voices do it as well. Her hands as well, pay attention to her hands and she will be putty in yours. There is also the small of her back and behind her ears. Biting, scratching, possessiveness and growls as well.
Her turn offs are yelling -- angry yelling, to be more specific (from someone who's not her and whoever she's fighting with). It instantly puts her out of the mood if she hears it coming from somewhere around her.
Weird Bedroom Habits; she will kiss her lover behind the ears and back of the neck in an affectionate gesture, to her, it's more intimate than even kissing anywhere else. For her, the back of her neck and behind her neck are extremely private, thus most are not allowed to touch them.

Beliefs
1. Do you know your character's astrological (zodiac) sign? How well does She fit type? Her Astrological sign is a Leo, and it... does, yes and no. She is fiery, though she is not the type of fiery that they describe in what I'm reading.

2. Is this character religious, spiritual, both, or neither? How important are these elements in her life? She is very not religious or spiritual, she finds both annoying, as she'd rather be out there fighting than sitting around and learning about things that happened before her time. These two things are not important to her at all.

3. Does this character have a personal code of morals or ethics? If so, how did that begin? What would it take to compromise it? Oh, she most definitely does. She views her morals and ethics to be extremely important in her life. Family before everything else, revenge right after. She would never compromise what she believes in, finding the whole idea of her having to bend to make other people happy ridiculous and against what she stands for.

4. How does she regard beliefs that differ from hers? Is she tolerant, intolerant, curious, indifferent? She simply doesn't care about other's beliefs, she doesn't ever think that religion should ever define a person -- they could be a Christian, killing in the name of god and all Hiyori would do would focus on the word 'murderer'. As long as you agree to disagree, there is barely anything that would ever bother her about the religions.

5. What prejudices does she hold? Are they irrational or does she have a good reason for them? She holds prejudices against both Shinigami's and humans, for shinigami's the reason is more than good -- they sentenced her and her friends to death for another man's crime against the world. For humans -- she hate how they take everything for granted, how oblivious they are to what they have, among other things.

Daily Life
1. What is the character's financial situation? Is she rich, poor, comfortable, in debt? She's .... comfortable, to say the least. She has what she needs to survive.

2. What is her social status? Has this changed over time, and if so, how has the change affected her? She's a visored, and most definitely it has changed over time and her! She is very, very, very concious of how things have changed in her life. She is not fond of it, but she doesn't exactly... hate it anymore. She's comfortable where she is now and that's all that matters to her.

3. Where does she live? House, apartment, trailer? Is her home his castle or just a place to crash? What condition is it in? Does she share it with others? She lives in a warehouse with an underground training area below it -- damn right it's her castle, she defends her home like a knight. Consider that everyone else was a mote and she is the crocodile that would eat you if you simply pissed her off enough. Yes, she lives with others, all other visoreds. They are... a special family.

4. Besides the basic necessities, what does she spend her money on? Pudding, clothes and astronomy books and items, mostly so she could figure out the stars that make up her personal set.

5. What does she do for a living? Is she good at it? Does she enjoy it, or would she rather be doing something else? She fights and enters dojo tournies to get the money she would need to support her very secret astronomy hobby, and she's wonderful at it, almost always coming out first in her matches unless she sees it fit to throw it for the sake of appearing human in some way.

6. What are her interests or hobbies? How doess he spend her free time? Training, is her most out hobby, she loves it to death and if she's not training and it's night out. She'll be on the warehouse roof top, mapping out more constellations, adding more and more to the story that she's come up with.

7. What are her eating habits? Does she skip meals, eat out, drink alcohol, avoid certain foods? She eats everything she can, but absolutely skips meals sometimes; mostly because she'd be too engrossed in training. She doesn't drink often, as she's found that when she's drunk she gets far too "nice" for her personal preference; she often saves it for a special occasion, such as a "birthday" or the aniversary of them getting leaving Soul Society and coming to the mortal world. Her favourite food ever is pudding -- she will go ballistic if she finds her personal stash has been compromised and is most likely to prank everyone if no one comes forwards to claim responsibilty for it.
