24. I bear your colours everywhere

Kuchiki Byakuya's favourite colour was purple.

Always had been, always will. As far as Sereitei was concerned, that was as unmoveable as his facial expression.

Only a few, a few who will always keep their mouths shut out of respect and loyalty and friendship, know otherwise. From back when he was as short as the Tenth division's captain with a remarkably similar attitude.

Back then, his favourite was green.
Lush, gorgeous green of springtime grass and leaves; the deep dark green of seaweed that he encountered in his miso soup; the sedate olive green of bamboo.

What had changed since those days was that he fell in love, fell in love with a person whose favourite colour was purple.
Hisana loved every shade of it, from plums and their scarlet purple to luxurious indigo.

It had grown on him the colour purple, until green was no longer his favourite and the purple that his wife loved so dearly was.

And that is why his favourite colour is still purple.
