Tentō Zefā | The Unrefined Paragon


The sun dipped low on the horizon casting a warm golden hue across the rugged landscape of Africa. Tento wiped the sweat from his brow, his body aching from the day’s exertions. It had taken a while, a bit far more than he thought but it was done. He had just finished delivering the last of the supplies to several refugee camps, ensuring the displaced souls stuck in the world of the living as well as the citizens desiring with a growing diaspora had enough provisions to sustain them for a while. The smiles and gratitude of those he helped were a boon to his weary spirit.

In the back of his mind though he couldn't help but think about what he saw from Ajora. Several killed bodies, Humans, Hollows, Quincy, and Shinigami. the joy now couod not hide the gruesome heartlessness that was present. They liked him because he came in time. Because he had plenty to give. Because they had reserves to pay for them. What would happen if it came to anyone being short? Would they still show him respect and kindness? Could they do? Or would they let that rage be unleashed and try to consume their hand trying to give them aid?



His thoughts turned to Ajora, the enigmatic woman he had met. Her words echoed in his mind, a blend of curiosity and confidence that intrigued him. She had raised pointd that made him reflect. The number of vizards who could do what he did was small, maybe not even another currently. He believed that was not the case but that may have only been hope. Ajora's words lingered with him, her acknowledgment of his unique abilities both flattering and daunting. She had an interesting, spirited quality about her, one that pushed the boundaries of exploration and experimentation. Tento knew her understanding went deeper than she let on. Now if that was a concern or not was yet to be seen.

She had some. Interesting thoughts about Arrancar, one subject he was not against talking more about with her among other things. She was good company for those several minutes. With nothing to do now, Tento figured he would follow up on her request. With his task complete, Tento made his way toward the cliff where Ajora's camp was located. The day's work had been exhausting, but the prospect of meeting Ajora again provided a renewed sense of energy to his mental fatigue. He was eager to see what insights and challenges she might present, and how their paths would collide in the new state of their world.

The camps were bustling with activity, filled with people organizing supplies and tending to the wounded. Tents of various sizes dotted the landscape, providing makeshift shelters amidst the turmoil. The air was thick with a mix of hope and despair, a reminder of the fragility of their existence. Tento took a moment to survey the scene, feeling a sense of pride in their resilience.

She hadn't idled while he was gone. She had taken the opportunity to review some of her notes from her Kido class in the sereitei. A number of spells had spacial qualities, trasportation, transmission. They had individual qualities that involve transmission of material or information over long distances. But information about the Senkaimon was a bit more sparse. what qualities were involved with surpassing the barrier between realms? There was mention of an ability used during the Arrancar conflict, both Mayuri Kurostsuchi and Kisuke Urahara had managed to produce Garganta, but they hadn't been easily done, and information about them was awkward and sparse. But even those shambles had been something. Surely she could see about producing something similar?

She would need to study the real thing. Hollows and arrancar were ... variably reliable.

But Tento. He certainly was... promising. And interesting. Finishing up her review, she looked off into the distance and eyed the sun on the horizon. He'd be showing up soon. and so packing up her things, she headed to the rendezvous point. Naturally, she herself was situated away from the main camp, and when Tento arrived, he wouldn't see that same flawless face. But rather, her 'refugee' face.

"You found it. Don't worry about them. They're kindly enough. And I told them you'd be showing up. " She noted calmly, smiling fondly as she greeted the man. Her manner of speaking entirely different. Much more casual in the way she spoke.

"How did the supply run go?"

Standing in front of the camp in view after reaching the rendezvous point, Tento saw Ajora again. Dawned in her relaxed at first expression. She had a set of eyes on her but he wondered how easy it was to see the beauty hidden behind hair and eye patch. He certainly didn't expect such in its full captivating capacity when he first saw her. Although that smirk now did add to her little flair.

It thankfully wasn't that hard. All I did was follow the area you pointed to and searched for your energy signature”, Tento said calmly as he walked up to her. "You're kinda hard to miss", Tento said in a hint ofna compliment. "Well, besides when you want to sneak up on me".

Thank you for your kind vouching ”, Tento said in a half joke. “I would rather not start out on a Bad foot with the locals if I can help it”. Kindly enough hm? We'll, can help to have some roughness in isolation guven how everything was. And it may have been so for a long while. He gave A friendly smirk while he tilted his head. She was talking a bit differently. Somewhat like hownshe was before she showed him her face all the way, but somehow different from that too. Very casual and less scholarly.

My supply run went well. A few places where Shinigami and Quincy are badly needed supplies. I think some may have been close to arguing about reserves. Thankfully they will be fine for a while while I work on organizing people around here who still want to give aid”.

“I hope I haven't kept you waiting long, Ajora”, Tento said with a bit of curiosity in his eyes. “What have you been up to in the meantime? Any more discoveries?”.

Ajora nodded along as Tento gave his report, rummaging through a bag for a moment before pulling out a bag. eyes scanning through the contents before she gingerly began picking a few small shiny tubes from the contents. Looking over her shoulder as he explained the run and his manner of finding her. She certainly had allowed more of her spiritual energy out than normal to let him find her easily enough. Though he'd be hard pressed to say that her spirit was all that impressive.

"I don't imagine it's hard to find those. And you must be making a pretty penny as well, Hm?" She ventured as she slipped the little tubes into her belt and then stood up as she lashed the bag across her shoulder and glanced sideways at him thoughtfully.

"You seem a bit down. Less flirty. Something bothering you?" She vantured calmly as she nodded towards a little tree off to the side, leading the man over to a small lean-to tent that was using the branches as support. "I've not been surveying. I needed something to eat. Plus I had someone to keep an eye out for." She promptly poked her head into the tent before reemerging with a revolver, which she slipped into a small slit in her belt as a makeshift holster. A spiritually infused weapon she'd gotten off of a human corpse. What type of spiritual being it had been intended to be used on was anyone's guess.

After he finished speaking Tento just stood there in a relaxed stance. His hands comfortably laid at the side of his waist. Tento watched as Ajora rummaged through her bag, her movements deliberate and yet calm. Grabbing a few shiny tubes and placing them in her belt. A careful eye watching her as she did so. Her comment about making a pretty penny brought a small smile to his lips. "Well, I wouldn't say I'm rolling in riches, but helping out does have its rewards," he replied, his tone light but sincere despite the heaviness still tinkling the end of his tone.

However Ajora's next words caught him off guard. Was it that obvious when he just got there? And why, less flirty?? Now that felt like it could be an insult to his personality (not). He thought she was smart but she was easy to observe, definitely a science type of gal. Tento hesitated for a moment, then shrugged. "Just a lot on my mind, I guess. The supply run was intense, and seeing so many people in need... it gets to you". It was easy to see hollows. It was easy to see Arrancars being cruel or crating devastation. But humans. It felt...wrong every time.

He glanced at her, a hint of his usual playful spark returning. Attempting to at least, a little playfulness helped him deal with the stress. To move on. "But don't worry, I'm still the same charming guy. Just need a bit of inspiration to recharge".

Following not too far behind the tent, Tento leaned against the tree with his back. “Oh, little old me? And here I was hoping to grab a nice dinner with you. Alas late due to duty”. He then spotted the revolver slipped into a small slit in her belt. Tento raised an eyebrow, intrigued by the weapon. “That's an interesting choice of accessory. You always this prepared, or is it just for me?" he teased, his playful nature resurfacing slightly again.

"Is that right? Then you've not been out to the rukongai?"' She ventured casually as she glanced briefly over his shoulder. Certainly intrigued at how this was effecting him, or rather specifically how he was being effected by the desperation. Such things were hardly new. They were effecting new, unfamiliar people, but they had always been present in those outter districts. It was simply...interesting that seeing people who were not used to desperation seemed to make it all the more rough for Tento. But then again, perhaps she aught not presume Tento's opinions on the outer districts.

"Hm. Are you sure about that?" She stood up and then looked over her shoulder at him as he made comment in regards to the item. "I find it fascinating. It's quite different from a Zanpaku'to. The mechanism is very intricate. It's no Kido Matrix, and it's constricted by things such as ammunition. But even so, the .... simplicity of use is something to speak of. I liked it. So I decided to keep it. At least until it decided to fall apart on me." She noted. She had been caring for it as well as she was able, but the parts certainly had seen some wear and tear. Perhaps she'd try designing her own variation at some point.

"Hm. Dinner? We eatin garganta?" She asked with a raised brow, glashing a grin as she then turned to face him. "Cmon. We should head to the outside of the camp, a bit further. I'd rather not they see you opening it. Some of them can get itchy around individuals with hollow powers." She noted as she turned and promptly aimed to lead him to the outskirts of the camp itself, pausing behind a small rocky outcrop and then looking to him.

"Why are you hitting on me?"

Tento offered a thoughtful gaze at Ajora. His eyes are a little stern yet not showing hostility at the question, his gaze momentarily distant. "I’ve been to the Rukongai a number of times. Yes it is bad but the desperation here... it feels different somehow. Maybe it's because these people aren't stuck in it like they are. This is fresh. Neither should be but these people in Africa aren't used to it”, Tento turned his finding himself making himself want to put a foot in his mouth. What did it matter if one group already existed in hell for years and another just got through months? Hell is hell in the end.

It bothered me when I saw it in Rukongai too. But..it just hits harder when I see that loss of hope in their eyes here". He sighed. “It's whatever. Both matter. And I have to do what I can here as much as there too". It was such a dumb comment finding a difference. Both struggled. Both were in pain. In destitute and needed help beyond measure.

“Yes, I'm sure. I'm not the first nor the last to be sad about the conditions of people due to war or destruction”. He watched her as she inspected the revolver before turning to ask him as she looked over her shoulder. Hmmm, he supposed it wasn't super interesting. “A little I suppose. A Shinigami doesn't use a gun normally, even in shikai or bankai. It does have its uses and merits in contrast to the limited range of a sword though”. It was true, simplicity could have its charm and betterment. Pulling a trigger was faster than an incantation after all.

At her joke Tento let out a smirk. Letting it flash in a response to her comment. “No, I didn't plan of eating that today”, Tento said while giving her a look. “I prefer something good. Either for my body or for the soul”, he said while moving to follow Ajora outside of the tent and further out of the range of the campsite. Along their way she stopped though. She asked him quite a question out of left field.

Straight to the point he supposed. Tento couldn’t help but chuckle. The playful glint in his eye went away, a far more serious glow to his gaze as he looked at her. "Well, apart from finding you intriguing and impressive. I just find you attractive, and if given the opportunity I'd be happy to see more of your captivating personality”, Tento began. “I will not lie and say i'm not seeking something physical since I've started flirting with you today, if you'd like”.

There was no smile on his face, given her directness she deserved to get a straight answer. Honesty was the best policy, despite the likelihood of getting a punch to the gut. It was far better than misleading someone and making them feel used and manipulated. "If you are not interested or feel uncomfortable with that, I will stop”. With that, he waited for her response, ready to see where this newfound connection might lead.
