Author's Notes: It's a bird! It's a juu-ou-chou! .... nope, it's just the author, getting kicked back into the GinBya field. :P Bet you thought it was something great...
Anyway, I'm sorry for the terribly long wait folks. It turns out that being a senior student is more work than I anticipated, add to that my tripping into a new fandom. I apologize for 'abandoning' the field for so long, but I intend to end your pain in just a while.
Internal Wars: Yay! I've got new thingies~! .erk. Hmmm... ok, got one! Should I write an AkitoxMomiji? As in, Akito from Fruuba and Momiji from Fruuba. As in, yaoi. As in, probably T. :P Even negative feedback (provided it has reason) is appreciated with regards to this question.
Disclaimer: Bleach does not belong to me, it belongs to Tite Kubo. The amazing Tite Kubo, who has (with the help of many others) ensured that I will never fall prey to the lures of alcoholism or drug abuse (as one awesome icon has said, Who needs crack when you have Kubo Tite?).
Warnings: OOC-ness. Dreaded OOC-ness. And a wee bit of fluff. :D Bya-chan's just begging to be poked. And the typo's that I missed. ^ ^ I've been hogging the bed for sleep these days.
Randomnity: I just realized, I missed Byakuya's birthday again. Huh. Can anyone say belated-bday fic? Oh, you'll get a belated Vday fic, too. I guess. Spur me with your reviews...?
What if I said no...?
Just A Few More Things You Should Know (But Should Never Speak Of) About Kuchiki Byakuya
21. If Byakuya was not a shinigami (hence, if he wasn't dead), he has confided in Gin that he would like to be either a manager or a high ranking spy.
22. The only person who can laugh at Kuchiki Byakuya (and get away with it, without any major, life-threatening injuries whatsoever) is Ichimaru Gin.
23. Once, just once, Byakuya would like to try this thing Gin called 'cliff-hanging'. If only to silence the other captain.
24. While Byakuya would be ultimately grateful to whoever would take his godfather far away (and subsequently out of his hair, and his life), he secretly favors his godfather's older brother-- at least, the man stood a good chance of being able to keep the ex-First Squad Taichou in one place.
25. If Gin is the moon, mundane and mysterious, Byakuya would dare be the stars that surround him-- it was perhaps the only way he could keep watch over him. For if Byakuya were the sun, they would never be able to be with each other as often as they were.
26. One of these days, Byakuya will learn how to cook a mighty feast, enough to feed an army of a thousand men.
27. But first, he must learn how to keep Ichimaru Gin in place as he cooks said feast.
28. Byakuya would make a fine husband-- responsible, never had a vice, straight as a ram rod and endearingly secretively-romantic to boot.
29. ...if only he didn't hold a certain silver-haired, crimson-eyed, somewhat-anorexic, quite-possibly-insane, male squad captain in such (suspiciously) high regards/respect (ie, if only he wasn't gay).
30. When Byakuya first saw Senbonsakura, he wondered if he would ever have to show it to Gin.
31. It is only because of Gin that Byakuya even knew the word daydumbing existed.
32. He and Gin couldn't be brothers-- they shared far too many things for their relationship to be simply that.
33. At one point, which no one is allowed to remember or even know of, Byakuya was just the teeniest bit jealous of Rangiku Matsumoto.
34. Before meeting Gin, Byakuya was merely 'the Kuchiki heir'. After meeting Gin, he was much more than that--- he had a lot more nicknames, too.
35. Byakuya does indeed have bad days. They happen when Gin's not around.

Author's Notes: And that ends The Tale of Two Pranksters, the GinBya 35/35 List.
Here's what I still have left:
1) the drabbles you guys requested for
2) another chapter that's more bittersweet than anything
3) that situation that puts everyone on the floor.
And of course, they shall be done in due time. Hopefully. Props to Jendo-san, -san, and Tsuki Star-san. Yours go first.
