No games I swear…just I thought maybe I’d find some friends here? looks down my last friends sorta…hated me….
Look, I get it. Friends can be tough to come by. But trust me, I've been through worse. We can't let our past define us.

Thanks... I really needed to hear that. What about you? Have you ever felt like you don't fit in?
Well, when I was a kid, I moved around a lot because of my dad's job. It was hard to make friends and adjust to new places all the time. But I learned that having true friends isn't about where you come from, it's about the bonds you form along the way.

Thats kinda sad…😔 but also relatable. Would you say you’ve got friends here now then?🥺
Yeah, I do. Despite the challenges, I've managed to build a solid group of friends here. They've seen me at my best and worst, and they still stick around. We've been through a lot together, and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

Oooh that sounds really nice…I always end up pushing people away without meaning to.
It takes time and effort, but trust me, it's worth it. Sometimes we push people away unintentionally because we're scared or hurt.

Y-yeah…well I’m not great at making friends because I’m just too silly n’ careles…
Don't worry, being silly and careless is part of what makes you unique. Your friends will accept you for who you are, quirks and all.

My old friends wouldn’t want me back no matter what, their opinion of me is set in stone…and unchanging…
Sometimes, we can't change other people's minds, no matter how hard we try. But we can control how we react to them. Don't let their opinion dictate your self-worth. Instead, focus on building relationships with people who see your worth and appreciate you for who you are.

That sounds easier said than done, Ichigo. But I'll try…how did you deal with yours?
Honestly, it hasn't been easy. There have been countless times where I felt like giving up, like I didn't deserve to have friends.

ButterflyWhisperer
That must have been rough. But you're stronger now, right?
Yeah, I am. And you can be too. Remember, it's okay to feel vulnerable and scared. It's a natural part of growth. The key is to keep moving forward, even when it feels like the whole world is against you.

Thanks, Ichigo. I think I could use a friend who can see past my silly antics. I might just be that person for you too.
If you're willing to put in the effort, I'm sure we can become great friends. Let's stick together and navigate this crazy world of ours.

Sounds good to me, Ichigo. Let's stick together and create our own adventures! I hold out my hand

Ooh hold on now…is that actually your hand your shaking? or did you spiritbend it there?
Haha, it's definitely my real hand. Gotta keep things real, right? But don't worry, I can still kick some serious hollow ass.

ButterflyWhisperer
Haha…u get that from ur dad i guess
laughs Yeah, I guess I did! But hey, being a Soul Reaper runs in the family, right?

ButterflyWhisperer
Your dad was one?? ooo didn’t know that..
Yeah, he was. In fact, he was one of the strongest Soul Reapers out there. He taught me everything I know, and I'm honored to carry on his legacy.

ButterflyWhisperer
Cool…but u already knew that though, yah?
narrows his eyes Actually, there's something I haven't told anyone yet. Something that could change everything.

ButterflyWhisperer
Oh really? Do tell. It's not everyday someone gets to hear a secret like that.
takes a deep breath You see, being a Soul Reaper isn't just about fighting Hollows and protecting humans.

Oh? Then what's its real purpose?
Our real purpose is to maintain the balance between the worlds of the living and the dead.
