"And wasn't there a pretty rough stretch of time at the Academy?"
I'm assuming that Byakuya was severely bullied back then?
The scene between Kyoraku and Ukitake was very well written, I love it when other characters give insight to Byakuya's inner personality and past as they were there it witness it. I wish I came across more scenes like this from the stoies I've read.
The conversion between Byakuya and Rukia was heartbreaking too, these types of scenes work very well when pertaining to Byakuya as it really shows another side to his character.
Please go into more depth about his past! I love your writing 3

Breaking Kuchiki (sequel by RukIchi)
Chapter five

It was not running away.!...I am not running away..!...am I..?

he hurriedly returned to his squad barracks leaving the Kuchiki Manor not looking back at Rukia.

Shunpoeng faster as through having a game of tag with Yorouichi. ...

.He is not the type of person to runaway from a situation no matter how grave it is. But this is not a battle to the death like what he is used to face
...this is about the very thing that he holds dearer than his life,more than his position and his wealth...

the conversation with Rukia is threading on sensitive and dangerous grounds...he cares about Rukia... .(he was so shaken about the fact that...no matter how he try to make things better ...it become worst than ever)...

Just Relax...take a deep breath...Calm down...I have so much responsibility... I need to be focus...and I need to find those insolent brats who dare make a fool of me!...I will show them...

This is really getting out of hand...more and more people are getting involved ... soon Taicho will learn about this...

Hey, Taicho hadn't showed up yet...may be I should speak to Kira
and the others about this...

Renji went to squad 3 barracks. And informed Kira about the final meeting that will be held for all participants of the game.

Renji walked out of the barracks feeling slightly relived...
" may be I should limit the...

" limit what exactly Renji?!...why are you here at squad 3 barracks?...

" Tai..Taicho!" Renji was flabbergasted... he felt as though he swallowed his tongue and unable to breath...

" don't' scream Renji I am not deaf...if you don't have anymore business here return to our barracks immediately!" said Byakuya in a most calm and detached way...with his white hair slightly flying in the air ...looking so noble and respectable...as though nothing happened.

Renji did really admire Kuchiki Byakuya ...not just as his Taicho but as a man...ever since the time when he save Rukia from Gin and Aizen ...and learned about the sacrifices he go through just to adopt Rukia into the Kuchiki clan and his vows... he respected him...

...he was grateful to Byakuya for protecting the only person who is dearest to him, Rukia...even though he was the one who separated him to Rukia...

he is a good person
...and he cares for the people around him ...but unable to show it properly... he found out this things after fighting him to the death... he is not a stone...

... ...he is ...my friend...

that's why he wants to teach the guy how to lighten up...even for a bit...enjoy life...and be happy...NO MATTER WHAT!...

...

I am sorry...
cold body lying in Byakuya's arms...

GOTCHa!¡!
Kuchiki siblings prank the pranksters!...

Awesome! Just a thought here but, if people were trying to get Byakuya Kuchiki to react without causing distress, how about pranking someone else and watching his reaction. Huh? Ah, I miss Renji and Ichigo. Do you think Renji can handle the glare from his Captin when he finds out? Gah, I cant wait! :D

The hair...I thought I migt die from laughter. To be honest I like this story not just because its funny (I still can't believe Yumichika would commit the 'cardinal sin') but because you write the characters in character. Its rare to see a story balanced with humour, a good plot and interesring and accurte views on the characters. I like your version of Yumichika, vain and therefore humourous but sensetive and empathetic as well. The way the characters interact and the effects Aizen had on the are amazing as well. Its rare to find a good story, so I sincerly hope you will continue with it. If you can't them I want to say thank you how posting it.

please, update this. PLEASE

Wow. That. That was deep. Poor Byakuya. He built such high and thick walls, that even he cannot leave it with his own free will. And this bet, it's totally spinning out of proportion... Gee, this story is awesome. It's so intricate and complicated, yet completely hilarious as well. It has silly moments, yet has touching ones, with an omniscient third person POV, I can totally see everyone's viewpoints and relate to them. I love it. I really can't wait for more. Please update this!

Ah, these last four chapters have been hilarious. I wish you would have continued it as it's great!

Please do continue it someday as it has been very good.

L

Oh for the love of Byakuya please please please update

*whistles* Whoa, 82 reviews from four chapters? I'm impressed, but still *sighs* you could have gotten more, if only you had kept updating

Pretty please update soon!

I like the combo of funny with deep . Poor Byakuya...'s hair. Really, I think I'm agreeing with Yumichika on that one. Or just feeling bad that he's joined the Shiro Club.

I hope you continue with this story. While the previous chapters were amusing, this chapter had enough emotional depth to make me care. The conversation between Byakuya and Rukia is heartbreaking! I can't wait to read future chapters.

I really like where this story is heading. Everyone's in character, and the pranks are genuinely funny. I especially like your portrayal of Byakuya: his reaction to the pranks, his inner turmoil over the situation with Rukia and Hisana... it's all really well done. Can't wait to read more.

Nossa tadinha da Rukia, que idiota, que merda foi essa que o Byakuya falou? a Rukia é milhões de vezes melhor que a Hisana, a Rukia nunca abandonaria um amigo, muito menos uma irma bebe sozinha, eu queria ver se a Rukia fosse sequestrada, ou sumisse o que ia acontecer, ele só vai dar valor a Rukia quando a perder e tomara que ela suma só um pouco para ele ficar doido de preocupação, abraços

I love your story and hope to see an update soon! You write so well and the characters are so accurate, it's really rare to find a fic this well done! I love the relationships you're exploring as I feel not enough people acknowledge Ukitake and Byakuya. Every character you have touched on is just so good! Sorry, I'm just really hung up on that. Also, the conversation between Rukia and Byakuya here was excellent. I love that you made them talk about Hisana but that you didn't let them get out of character. Byakuya reacted just the way he should have.

Your other chapters have made me laugh too! The concept for this story is so simple, but you've done so much with it and added so many layers. I mean, Yumichika is in the middle of his prank and he stops and notices Hisana's things. I love the way you blend humor and angst!

As for character suggestions, I love Hisagi and would love to see him make an appearance. Keep up the Ukitake, he's another great one. Hitsugaya was really well done and I love him too. Also, you mentioned that you were thinking about writing a fic about Byakuya's past - please do! I would absolutely love to read it! I'd love to hear your take on his childhood, his parents' deaths, Hisana, and her death, because what you've done here is just such an excellent taste of what that would be! Again, your characters are so well done and so accurate and you write excellently.

Thanks for the excellent story, and I hope to read more from you soon!
