refusal as a lifestyle



Quincy Ishida has it easy.

All he has to do is materialise a bow from the depths of his own will, focus it till it burns like starlight in his hand, and condense spiritual energy out of the air into an arrow that will go searing through the world.

It's not as if he can be deaf to his own power; he perceives it. It's not as if he can refuse it; it's part of him. It's not as if he can try to hit someone with it without knowing what it is.

Zangetsu broods. Humans are such willful creatures.
