Something Different
A/N: Challenge was Bleach/Yami no Matsuei involving Watari and the sex-change potion. This one was just fun. By the way, I love Hanatarou; I’m not trying to be mean to him. ^_^
“Isn’t there something different about you today?” Kotesu asked.
Hanatarou laughed nervously and waved off the concerns of vice-captain, hefting his medicine chest so it covered his chest a little more. “No, no, I’m fine,” he said, and hurried around the corner. Said chest was a bit more ample than usual, although nothing he couldn’t handle.
He (she?) wondered if he should go about finding a bra. Then he vetoed that plan. Too embarrassing. All he had to do was find some time alone in the supply cabinet and figure out how to undo whatever that blonde weirdo from the twelfth division had done to him the night before. Just his ill luck that Unohana-taichou had asked him to deliver those documents at just the wrong time.
At least she wasn’t there that morning. Hanatarou was sure that she, at least, would immediately figure out exactly why he was different. He wasn’t sure what her reaction would be, but either way he didn’t want to find out. So far, nobody seemed to have found him out. Although that spared him a lot of embarrassment, it seemed a little unflattering that nobody he knew could detect something so obvious. He wasn’t that girly, was he?
“I know,” Ganjyu had said. “You’re growing your hair out.”
“Ha ha, no,” Hanatarou had said, and hurried away.
He opened the door to the medicine cabinet with a sigh of relief.
“Something different about you today?” one of his division-mates asked curiously.
“No,” Hanatarou said impatiently.
He wondered if he should be getting insulted.
