worldserpent: I have to wonder why everyone else didn't tell Rukia about this

worldserpent: Unless it happened way before. Being married is not a private thing

petronia: It must have been quite some time before.

petronia: But well, not before Rukia was born, obviously,

worldserpent: But how old is Rukia?

worldserpent: I mean, and it has to have been some time between the two that Hisana met Byakuya

petronia: so come to think of it they couldn't have been married all that long before she died. o_o

worldserpent: True

worldserpent: So it would have been within the memories of many people

petronia: Well, you do get the feeling that the Kuchiki are somewhat secretive, but...

worldserpent: But marriage is sort of well... difficult to hide?

worldserpent: The whole point of being married is to ... well we're not sure if spirits do reproduce, so let's just say legitimize

petronia: Maybe they eloped. XD

worldserpent: Byakuya, elope?!

petronia: As of course Hisana was a penniless commoner and it would have been a scandal!!!

worldserpent: ..legitimize one's romantic relationships

petronia: *makes shiz up*

worldserpent: XD It is like a Romance Novel

petronia: Actually I think it would be an AWESOME romance novel.

worldserpent: !!!

worldserpent: And you say you can't imagine Byakuya married?

petronia: O if it were only an old-skool shoujo manga instead of WJ. XDDD

petronia: I can't imagine the Byakuya of Bleach-to-date doing all that.

petronia: But well, so Kubo Tite is breaking my brain merrily.

worldserpent: Hey, maybe it will be shounen enough if you add in enough Tokugawa imagery

petronia: What else is new.

worldserpent: Well, OBVIOUSLY he is all embittered because of Hisana's death, so it caused him to become a bastard

petronia: Hey, at least she didn't go mad and he had to lock her up in the attic.

worldserpent: Maybe she DID!

worldserpent: Maybe Hisana went insane or was possessed, and she was actually the 1st person to see his bankai! And so even though Hisana doesn't blame him for killing her (see it's like an echo of the Kaien situation), he still is like all guilty

worldserpent: This is probably not chronological

petronia: XDDDDD

petronia: PSHAW CHRONOLOGY

worldserpent: YAY ROMANCE NOVEL
