“I am Rangiku-chan.” she smiled. “he’s my oldest son” he said. “Well by about two minutes but he’s still older. How did you know”
Rangiku smiled and nodded before a surprised look crossed her face. “Oldest? You have another son?” Smiling, she answered her question. “We met yesterday, he seemed like a laid back guy. A little serious, but mostly laid back.”
“There seems to be so many people around again. Hello all.”
“Hi! I don’t think we’ve met. I’m Rangiku Matsumoto. Who are you?”
“Sake? With ramen? I’ve never tried them together… I think it would make the ramen taste really weird…” Naruto has had his share of experiences with alcohol but mixing it with ramen wasn’t one of them. That sounded like a bad idea. He slightly tilted his head to the side as the other mentioned missions as well. “Are you a shinobi too?”
“If sake isn’t your thing, I might taste weird. I drink it all the time.” Rangiku was used to drinking sake so much and mixing it with everything. Her sense of taste wasn’t as strong as a lot of other people’s. Most things that people found to taste bad, she found to taste great. “No, I’m not a shinobi. I’m a Shinigami.”
Kushina smiled at the lady. “hello” she said. “I’m Kushina Uzumaki. What’s your name ‘ttebane”
“Nice to meet you, Kushina.” Rangiku smiled back at her. “I’m guessing you’re related to Naruto. I’m Rangiku Matsumoto.”
Riruka glanced over at the busty blonde with a flick of her pigtail behind her shoulder, “I’m Riruka Dokugamine, most awesome and kawaii person you will ever meet.” She said proudly with her hands on her hips, standing up straight.
Rangiku was somewhat surprised by the other’s ego. “Most kawaii and awesome?” She wasn’t sure if she actually believed it, but didn’t say anything. It was better not to get things started in a bad way. “Nice to meet you, Riruka. I like your clothing style.”
“Looks like I haven’t met a lot of you. I’m Matsumoto Rangiku.” Rangiku happily greeted everyone with a smile. “Who are you?”
“Great! I’ll be on the lookout for Nanao then.”
“I don’t get a lot of free time, usually I’m on missions or training. I like to go eat ramen at Ichiraku’s if that’s what you’re looking for… What about you?”
“You have missions too?” A thoughtful look crossed the woman’s face. She hadn’t seen him before, so she was sure his missions were a lot different than her own. “Ramen, huh? It goes great with sake. I like to drink sake, sleep, and shop when I’m not on missions.”
“I always keep some around, but I’m sure you already knew that.” Rangiku smiled as she took a bottle of sake out from her stash and handed it to the man. “It isn’t borrowing if you don’t return the favor. So, get me a replacement soon.”
“Today felt like such a busy day. After getting caught with shopping, I had a full day of work. Paperwork has to be the most boring thing ever..”
Naruto looked up at the new face, listening in on her name as she spoke. “I’m Naruto, nice to meet you dattebayo.”
“Naruto? I haven’t heard that name before.” A happy smile crossed her face. “So, what do you like to do for fun?”
“Like I said I’m Pein a God of Amegakure and it’s leader. Who are you woman?” He looked back at her confused face.
“Amegakure, I can’t remember where I’ve heard that before. I’m Rangiku, the lieutenant of the tenth division.”
“Please do have something interesting to ask of God…” He said with a bored tone. He judged from her looks that it would be very unlikely.
“A God? For someone so powerful, I’ve never heard of you.” Rangiku commented as she looked at him with curious eyes. “Let’s start with the basic. Who’re you?”
“…I don’t think I know you.”
“That’s because we haven’t met yet! Matsumoto Rangiku. Who are you?”
”__and where exactly have you been, for most of the day. Matsumoto!?! “
“I was out and about getting some things done. Calm down, taichou.”
“It took me a little longer to get everything done, but I’m back. Anyone up for some fun?”
“Taichou?” Rangiku looked at the snowy haired man. “I wasn’t expecting to see you so soon. How are you?”
“Today’s been such a busy day! I have to go pick up some clothes I bought, but I’ll be back later~”
