Soifon sat in her office. The desk was covered with black cat memorabilia. She held up the Haineko puppet with disgust. "Why couldn't it have been a Yoruichi-sama puppet?"

"Because..." Orihime paused. "I picked Rangiku and Toshiro-kun's because this is for Toshiro-kun, and he knows Rangiku well."

"I guess that makes sense," the female stated, a rather bored look on her face.

"So, what do you like about Hitsugaya Taicho?" Rangiku asked.

"I would like to invite him to come train with my Onmitsukido," the woman stated.

"What..." Rangiku made an agitated sound.

"You know... the gotei thirteen captain replied. "The force in charge of the secret missions. I really think he could handle it, though it is rigorous, and with him being a taicho, he might not have the time. But still, the invite is open to come train with my me, or myself."

"I see... I am not sure I like the idea of him..." Rangiku paused, her voice becoming dull.

"Ney! Soifon! What do you think of Toshiro-kun's future romantic prospects!" Orihime stated firmly.

"What..." the female taicho stated, raising an eyebrow. "If you're so worried about him having an interest in boys, it is rather natural that children take an interest in learning about their own sex before learning about the opposite, isn't it? Let him be."

"You just made me really worried about him," Matsumoto stated firmly. "He isn't you, you know,"

"And what is that supposed to mean?" Soifon's eyes suddenly narrowed. "I am so sorry that unlike you, I haven't yet hit the stage where I've figured out guys. They're weird and icky."

"That's my point. It wasn't meant as an insult," Rangiku sighed.
