Hey, Renji. -RK

Hey. -RK

Hey. -RK

Renji. -RK

Rukia, you know I love to hear from you, but could you please not spam my inbox when I'm trying to work? I have about a bazillion reports to finish for Captain Kuchiki by tomorrow and I really don't need the distraction. -RA

But Renji, I had an awesome idea! -RK

Will it help me to finish my work, or will it distract me? -RA

It'll distract you. -RK

Thanks for being honest. I'm closing my inbox now. -RA

Hold it! -RK

... -RA

Fine. -RA

Have you ever heard of something called "fanfiction"? -RK

No. -RA

It's when people write fiction. About things they're a fan of. Or just things. -RK

It's fun! -RK

I'm sorry, Rukia, but I'm not seeing what you're trying to say, here... -RA

I think we should write fanfiction together! -RK

We should pick a pairing to write about and take turns! -RK

"Pairing"? -RA

Yeah, it's this thing called shipping where you choose two people you think would go well together and you write about them! -RK

Do you have a particular pairing you like the idea of? In ANYTHING at all you can think of. -RK

Nope. -RA

Can't think of anything. -RA

Definitely not. -RA

Are you sure? -RK

Why, is there a reason you're asking? -RA

I don't really have a pairing, either. -RK

Perhaps we could write lots! -RK

I love how you're just assuming that I'm going to write with you when I haven't even agreed to anything yet. -RA

What if we write about Ichigo? -RK

We could pair him with EVERYBODY. Just for lols. He'll never know. -RK

I'll do it. -RA

I knew you would! =) -RK

Right, I've sorted out a random generator with EVERYBODY'S names in it, so we can pick our first victim. Hee hee, this is going to be so fun! -RK

Author's notes: Just an idea I had. I'm posting the first few chapters as an experiment, to see if this catches on. If it does, great, I'll write more. If not, it doesn't particularly matter. :)

As for the format: I'm not entirely sure. I think it's Rukia and Renji e-mailing each other or texting or something, but the ficlets themselves are going to have R&R's annotations, and sometimes they'll be interrupted, so imagine the arrangement however you like. :)

In case you were wondering, I'm choosing the pairings with the random number generator on my calculator. I have a list of nearly all of the Bleach characters with corresponding numbers, so I'll match up the number with each prompt. :D
