Nel-sama was always such a good speaker. When one arrancar speaks to another, the two most common comebacks are, "Wanna fight about it?" and "I could beat you up if I wanted". But not with her. If someone told her off for whatever reason, she'd always have the perfect response. And it was never mean or crude, but just perfectly thought out. But that was a long time ago.

I wonder what I'll say to her when I see her in her adult form again. It's inevitable that I will...

Lately, it seems like the ticking is louder than before, but I'm not more or less alone than I've been in weeks.
