Reiatsu Control 101: [Ritsuko/Antonovich]
Thu Nov 16, 2017 1:27 pm
SIMPLY RUSSIAN
The city changes every few minutes on the journey home; the downtown flicking between affluence and poverty. There are streets of up-market stores, smooth black and glass exteriors, fancy names in fancier lettering. The kind of places with perfumed atmospheres made all the more inviting by music and well-groomed subservient staff; exchanging their tokens of the upper-class life for the swipe of a credit card. In moments were are passing the run-down pawn shops, the liquor stores and dingy supermarkets that are about as wide as two bowling lanes at Lucky Strike. These people are clad in everything from skimpy summer ware to thick wintry jackets, either freezing or roasting in the cool but sunny fall day. On the sidewalk are spaced out women with wild tangles of hair and more than one person with a cart of aluminum cans. A few moments more and she was in a suburbia, rows of uniform houses and neatly mowed lawns, each wide avenue draped in the seasonal reds and golds.
Ritsuko wore a pair of matchstick jeans and ballet flats. She wrapped a Hally-blue silk scarf around her waist, up over her torso, then tied the ends behind her neck to fashion a halter-style blouse. But now wasn't the time for sightseeing it was time to refine her skills as a fighter, however, the one obstacle that was preventing her from doing so was properly controlling reiatsu. Ritsuko was so accustomed to the concept of manipulating reishi in the air to create small constructs that the thought of it never crossed her mind, sure she's heard of it before and has seen shinigami demonstrate it but never got the full picture..the question is who? There haven't been any hollows for the past few days and everything seems calm, she wondered if any shinigami were still patrolling if at all.
"There's got to be someone who can help me," She mumbled to herself before pulling out her cellphone to check on nearby shopping areas.

Everything was going well for the most part Ritsuko kept staring at her phone occasionally looking up to not bump into anyone, nothing of interest was in her vacinity not even good places to shop. She began to sigh before putting her phone back into the pocket and suddenly stopped... Ritsuko sensed a presence coming towards her genera direction, she wasn't sure who or what this person was but she was ready to defend herself regardless if she doesn't have any powers.
The woman was in her mid to late thirty's with flowing red hair extending down to the back, with piercing red eyes staring at her own sporting an outfit a counselor or school president would wear during meetings and a black eye patch covering her left eye. The strangest thing about it all was that she needed help with something, and putting on her biggest smile expecting for Ritsuko to just comply immediately.
However that wasn't the case as she looked at the woman with one eyebrow raised clearly questioning her previous action and what led to this encounter, what caught her eye was a purse in her hand, and examining her closer it was obvious it couldn't be hers and perhaps a innocent bystander mistakingly dropped it and she's returning it?
Ritsuko spoke with a voice a school teacher would make when one of her students were caught either stealing a snack or personal item from another.
"Sure I'll help you, after you tell me what your doing with that purse."

Ritsuko remained silent as she looked deeply into the woman's eyes giving her full attention occasionally nodding her head in agreement hearing the silvery melody of the woman's story and how she ended up in this mess,her breathing and hand motions were similar to that of a suspect witnessing a murder for the first time raspy and all over the place telling their story to the police.
It was a cliche one at best but it was believable and it would be pretty ridiculous to see an old person search everywhere for this woman...and what would happen if the police were involved?
Ritsuko imagined the possibilites would it be an easy fix or would it turn into a ridiculous chase scene where they run from the police and a series of gags and hijinks wound insue...however the more she thought about it the more ridiculous it sounded. Besides goimg to jail would leave a bad record preventing her getting a job, if she was still a quincy she'd be able to jump from building to building to avoid this mess however Ritsuko was willing to help her regardless of how small or large the issue.
"Sure I'll help you." she responded to the strangers request with a smile on her face.

"My name's Ritsuko,it's nice to meet you Lilith. And it's fine, i'll be glad to give my side of the story."
Ritsuko was going to speak to the old woman to clear up this situation, and she was on her way with Lilith by her side until she was asked who she is in terms of spiritual power and durability, so she answered honestly with little eye movement and akward fumbles in her voice otherwise it'd give the impression that she's lying.
"Well i'm just a spirtually aware human,i was originally a quincy but i lost my powers. Been trying to figure out how to control my reiatsu,not making any progress though."
While Ritsuko did have a good understanding about shinigami such as Shikai and Bankai, but not the full grasp of their individual aspects such as reiatsu and kido. Regardless she explained to the women the entire situation and returned her purse with a smile.

After the apology from Lilith regarding the whole rubbing her brow and sighing in frustration, what she was frustrated about she'll never know. Ritsuko just chuckled at her little outburst, of course she wasn't laughing at her but with her; she understands where she's coming from far as being stressed and wanting to ease the mind. Regardless Ritsuko watched as she put a hand on her hip giving her full attention on the subject at hand, and so she cleared her throat before taking a deep breath ready to explain the reasoning behind her lack of control.
"It's because of the fundamentals the it's not like a Quincy where reishi is external making it quite simple to utilize it properly. Compared to a human it seems like an internal thing, like you have to really dive deep within yourself to find it and even if i feel a tiny amount and try to condense the flow into energy it's very scarce."
Ritsuko then paused briefly before lowering her head to look at the ground, she shedded a few tears after saying that. It reminded her of all the moments she had with the love of her life before this even happened.
"Have you ever loved someone that you've never want to see them hurt? My girlfrien- I mean soon to be wife Toshiko she's a Quincy too...we hit it off strong and we even shared a touching moment with each other. But-" her voiced broke for a few seconds only for her to clear her throat to finish her story.
"Ever since I lost my powers I was like a helpless animal, sure she understood the struggles but I don't wanna be a burden to her, and I don't wanna have her risking her life to save me. I just don't wanna feel useless."
