[september 29] [bleach] violating the dead
Title: Violating the Dead
Day/Theme: September 29 / Thoughts of a dying atheist
Series: Bleach
Character/Pairing: Ichigo, Masaki, (tiny bit) Rukia
Rating: PG

He had never noticed how beautiful the sky could look.
Well, he had, in a way. Once when he was very little, and she was still very warm. Once when he saw it through her hair for a brief moment- that which later became like an eternity. Once when his mind was on overdrive, willing her, begging her to just move. His eyes stared at the sky until they became too blurry to distinguish what he was looking at.
(After the ambulance had disappeared, his father tried to drag him home. But Ichigo would not leave.
"I wanna see her. She'll be sad if we don't tell her to be safe."
Isshin had made an expression he would later wish he had hidden. Then turned his head and said nothing, tugging on his son's arm once more. Ichigo planted his seat right where they stood.
"Get up, Ichigo."
"When Momma comes.")
But she never came.
And now he wonders what he was expecting. Her, or a ghost? Had he known then that could have been the last time he could ever see her? Had he known it was time to say goodbye? Or maybe now he's just mixing up the present and the past. Maybe his eyes are still blurry.
The sun is setting, and instead of a darkening blue it rises to purple and pink, before, as it reaches the sun, becoming a deep auburn shade. He watches until everything goes dark.
"Get up, fool."
"...Suppose I like it down here."
"I'm sure you do, but I'm equally sure others like to walk there."
"Oh yeah, right--" A foot landed on his face before he could finish:
No heart warming stories.
