（ the fact he has to ask is telling. ichigo shifts his weight between his feet. his reiatsu's mostly back — which means this guy has to feel it too. he's never been good at supressing it the way people like aizen and byakuya are. but it's not amped up like it was when he went against yhwach, either, it doesn't bleed off him like a shroud here. ）

Friends. Family. Pets. Kids, if you're into that kind of thing. You ever play a board game for fun? Ever grow some kind of plant that wasn't for food?

（ yhwach's army was just... soldiers. he's hard-pressed to believe they were ever allowed to have lives that didn't serve him in every way. it doesn't mean he has sympathy for what they tried to do, the people they tried to kill. most of them were still a thousand or more years old, and they made their choices. but he can still acknowledge that it's hard to be more than what you're made. ）
