[Quidditch World Cup]
Mar. 2nd, 2014 01:46 pmThere's a lot of things Renji figured he'd do on his trip to the UK. A lot. Argue about Quidditch, for example. Complain about the shitty rainy weather. Eat lots of fish and chips and try to convince Ikakku he should try haggis for the fuck of it. Maybe go for a ride on that big ferris wheel in London.
Admittedly he hadn't really expected the World Cup celebrations to dissolve into some racist British wizards starting shit (though perhaps he should have, in hindsight). Likewise he doubts the Brits expected Renji and some of the other motley crew of Japanese wizards to wade right in after the Death Eaters, either. Not that it did any good. The Death Eaters fled before Renji, Ikakku and Yumichika could get there, and all they had to show for it were Renji's very broken glasses - courtesy of a misfired spell from a panicked Dutch wizard along the way - and a bunch of hapless muggles being mind-wiped by Britain's apparent best and brightest. For apparently the umpteenth time, because that's how this country is apparently run.
Oh, and Zaraki was nowhere to be found. Beautiful.
After a few hours of looking, though, the only one left still searching is Renji. Yumichika gave up quickly, complaining about getting leaves in his hair. Ikakku got distracted by... Renji's not sure, but it's likely going to end in a fight or having to bail him out. Or both.
He'll deal with that after he finds Zaraki.
Stomping through the woods in the middle of the night was also not really one of the things he'd expected to do. And still that's what he's doing, because Kenpachi goddamn Zaraki can't not get lost where ever he goes.
"Zaraki? Zaraki, I swear to god, I will leave you in this forest." He feels stupid shouting that so loudly, and the dinky ball of light hovering over him and barely lighting his path just makes him feel all the stupider. He's never been good at those kind of charms. At least there's no one around to see when he nearly stumbles and falls on yet another root or rock or some fucking thing because the illumination charm isn't bright enough.
