Damn it all... how did he get roped into this?
Toshiro sighed as he closed up the locker before him, safely locking his signature robes until he could retrieve them later. This onsen was a bit of a fixture and had been used by Soul Society for many generations, but in all his time here the short silver-haired captain had rarely made use of the services here. He was a man more concerned with work, but that policy was what landed him in this current situation.
Momo was always concerned for him, and while he was glad for the concern Toshiro didn't want her to reel him into something as frivolous as this. But she and Rangiku could be a dangerous combination, and together they'd worked to strong-arm him into being here. Apparently trips like these were common among female Shinigami... didn't explain why he absolutely had to come on this trip.
He looked down his short and slender frame, down to the two towels wrapped about him from the waist down. It was embarrassing, having to wear one on top of the other with the latter reaching down lower, but the towels here were rather modest. And while Toshiro was short in height, he was quite large in other respects that he didn't want to flash around. It was poor covering, but it would have to suffice for now.
Sighing, he made his way from the changing area, rounding a corner until he reached the steaming expanse of the springs. Toshiro walked along a smooth path of damp stones, the humidity steadily making his hair fall, until he sank into the water and breathed out in relief. All he had to do was go along with this nonsense for a little while, and he'd be back to work in no time...<|im_end|>
This is a good idea to take Captain Hitsugaya Toshiro to the hot springs. All thanks to Rangiku and Momo themselves! If they had not asked him to go to the hot springs with them, he still would be working diligently. This why every so often the two Shinigami forcefully take Toshiro to the hot springs! Even if he doesn't want to go, they will force him to go one way or the other. Toshiro already knew they will force him so he just let them take him to the hot springs.
You see, Toshiro works far too much! Ask Rangiku, his lieutenant, herself! Toshiro won't stop working unless he has to take a bath, go to the bathroom, meeting, or have a mission, otherwise, he works 24/7. Understandable why Toshiro works diligently all the time, however, sometimes, Rangiku thinks it is very unhealthy for the captain to work overtime.
More importantly, it is worse that Momo is fussing over him all the time. Like, seriously! Rangiku understands why Momo is concern for Toshiro considering they are childhood friends however Momo is overly concern for his well being. At times, Rangiku finds herself frustrated, and from time to time, jealous. Which why she plans on getting back at Momo for intentionally causing her to be envious of her relationship with Toshiro. By all means, Rangiku's plan is going to work.
For starters her plan is about to commence. Momo already put her clothing in her locker and went into the hot springs so this is Rangiku's chance! Rangiku smirked evilly, placed her clothes in her locker before sneaking into the male's hot springs.
Call Rangiku bold for going in the male's hot springs however she planned on teaching Momo a little lesson. Luckily for her, Toshiro is too busy relaxing in the hot springs to barely notice Rangiku sneaking up on him. Walking towards him, he grabbed her captain from behind, lifted him up.
"Got you~!" Rangiku yelled, laughing soon afterwards.
Elsewhere Momo wondered where Rangiku was because she has not even arrive yet, pondered on where she could be. Overtime, though, as she soaked in the hot springs, she forgot about Rangiku, continued to relax in the warm water.<|im_end|>
