    <title>Twin Souls Update and Finish</title>

    <content type="html">The last two chapters for my fanfic &lt;a href="http://liralen.livejournal.com/636816.html" target="_blank"&gt;Twin Souls&lt;/a&gt; are now up, and they finish the 40+ chapter saga that I've been working on for the last six years. I'm kind of sad, but also happy to finally bring it to a conclusion that I think is worthy of the whole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is my attempt to figure out why Kyouraku Shunsui and Ukitake Jyuushiro are the only two shinigami in Soul Society to have zanpakuto that manifest as two identical swords. It starts when the two first really meet at the Academy and ends after both have manifested shikai for the first time. It is mostly action/adventure, but with definite yaoi leanings for the two, and it eventually involved the evolution of Soul Society as a whole.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Index: &lt;a href="http://liralen.livejournal.com/636816.html" target="_blank"&gt;All the Chapters&lt;/a&gt; &lt;br /&gt;First Chapter: &lt;a href="http://liralen.livejournal.com/636649.html" target="_blank"&gt;Introductions&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;...&lt;br /&gt;Chapter 40: &lt;a href="http://liralen.livejournal.com/990633.html" target="_blank"&gt;Spring&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rated: PG, no warnings. 4000 words&lt;br /&gt;Postlude: &lt;a href="http://liralen.livejournal.com/990725.html" target="_blank"&gt;Of Love&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rated: R, yaoi implicit, 6800 words</content>

It is strangely a starless night in &lt;i&gt;Seireitei&lt;/i&gt;, and she is staring into the darkness from her window.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;The darkness that seems to mirror the dark void she has quietly accepted as her life now. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She needs no company to drink with, tonight.

Rangiku knows too well that look was Gin&amp;rsquo;s look of sadness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;It is Gin, and she finds herself unable to let him go a second time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Just when I was about to stop, Gin&amp;hellip;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;...I hate that about you.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She knows it will be futile to stop herself, so she follows him all day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;There isn&amp;rsquo;t much of the day left in any case, so she reasons with herself that it will not take too long.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;So she follows him, resisting the constant urge to reach out and hold onto him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;It took her everything not to scream from overwhelming emotions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;It took her everything not to slap him hard across the face.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;And it took her everything to ignore her dislike for his non-silver hair.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She wants to know his new name badly, but no one around him mentions his name. He doesn&amp;rsquo;t seem to be around people much.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;I guess some things just don&amp;rsquo;t change, huh, Gin?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;As night falls and he shuts the lights in his bedroom before sitting on his bed, Rangiku tells herself that her time of reunion with him is almost over.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She will leave once he falls asleep, and he should be falling asleep soon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;But he doesn&amp;rsquo;t&amp;mdash;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;A length of time passes in darkness between them as she waits for him to sleep, but he does not move from his sitting position on his bed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;In the darkness, Rangiku sees him turn his head towards her, and she is now having trouble keeping her composure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She does not understand why. She already knew he could see her earlier.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Her loss of composure is perhaps because she did not expect him to acknowledge her so directly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;You look like you&amp;rsquo;ve seen a ghost,&amp;rdquo; he tells her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;And Rangiku can&amp;rsquo;t tell if this Gin still had the same sense of humour she remembers he had, or if he is just plainly declaring it to her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She considers him in the darkness for quite a while. He does not seem to mind the silence that has befallen them.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Soon, she manages to fully collect herself and asks, choosing her words carefully, &amp;ldquo;Do I seem familiar to you? At all?&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;He takes a short time to answer her, and even in the darkness, she could trace his fox-like face curl into a familiar grin.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;You don&amp;rsquo;t seem familiar, but you feel familiar.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She falls silent&amp;mdash;she can no longer stop her emotions at this point. She can no longer stop the tears from forming.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;And as those tears fell, he says again, in that gentle tone he used to save only for her, &amp;ldquo;I don&amp;rsquo;t know your name, but I know you.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Choking between her now free-falling tears, she tells him her name.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Rangiku&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;hellip; her name breathes from his lips, light as the wind.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Your name isn&amp;rsquo;t Gin anymore, is it?&amp;rdquo; She asks, as she dares move closer towards him. She moves so easily in the dark&amp;mdash;now accustomed to it, but also because he is guiding her through the dark. His light flickers, but it is there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;When she sits on the edge of his bed, his grin and tone never falters as he says, &amp;ldquo;Rangiku&amp;hellip; I see no reason to be anyone else to you now, but Gin.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Gin,&amp;rdquo; she cries, reaching out instinctively to hold his hand. The feel of his hand warm on hers gives her tearful comfort. &amp;ldquo;Tell me you are happy?&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;He does not answer that question, but instead, his hand reaches out to touch her face lightly, wiping her tears swiftly away. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;I always think you&amp;rsquo;re gone, but when I&amp;rsquo;ve finally given up, you always show up again. I hate that about you, Gin.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Now, Rangiku, don&amp;rsquo;t be crying&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;I waited for you, Gin. For a long time.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;His eyes open, peering at her, &amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m back, and I&amp;rsquo;m sorry.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;Her Gin has returned to her&amp;mdash;he is right there, in front of her. And yet, she knows there is no way she&amp;rsquo;d be able to reach him, this way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She could touch him, but she couldn&amp;rsquo;t reach him.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;He has returned, but still in some ways he is gone, and she cannot reach to where he is. Still, despite all this, Gin has returned to her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;She waits, and he comes back. Always.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;&amp;ldquo;Gin&amp;hellip;&amp;rdquo; she caresses his face, wanting to hold onto him just a little longer, just like he&amp;rsquo;d wanted her to. &amp;ldquo;Thank you.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;div style="text-align:right"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:rockwell;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:11.0pt;"&gt;-End-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a name='cutid1-end'&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</content>

Even the front cover, upon closer look, reveals spoiler-ish details about the two, so proceed with caution. Furthermore, the fanmix has both a Japanese and English parts (translations are provided in the post), since there were songs from the two languages that capture the dynamics of this pairing so well (I coudln't pick just one!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;img src="https://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb15/flamewinter/frontsmall_zpsecaf449f.jpg" fetchpriority="high"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://ashen-carnival.livejournal.com/4541.html" target="_blank"&gt;You are the only man in the world..&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</content>
