Over the years, Ichigo had come to know a lot of faces. Some of them he would much rather forget, while others he wouldn't know what to do without them. The wildcat was who he was today because of how he interacted with those faces, whether that was a good or bad thing he wasn't quite sure how to answer something like that. Ichigo had to admit that he had somewhat of a history with Dimitri. He wasn't sure if he could say that most of the memories were good all things considered. He had forgiven whatever the other had done in the past a long time ago. What was in the past was in the past. The domestic cat always seemed to be able to stay around as long as Ichigo was, and it was certainly the relief to not have someone that he knew died in the ground for him to bury. He didn't even remember the first time that he had met the male, all he knew was that the guy had fallen in love with one of his adopted nieces, Vintagequotes, and everything went downhill because Ichigo didn't believe the other could control himself from doing something drastic and dangerous. He even remembered the time where the male had nearly drowned Vintage, and it was for awhile that he hated the guy's guts for obvious protective reasons. But after a while, he realized that it wasn't just one person that he was dealing with but several people at the same time. Ichigo didn't hate anyone right now. There was no need for him to at this age where he was just tired and exhausted and just trying to find a way to make all of this worth all of it. As far as he knew, his entire family was dead, adopted or not, it didn't even matter. The wildcat was at the end of his ropes and didn't know what he should do for the rest of his life. He was following the same path over and over again.

The Shinigami had been dealing with the spirits in the area to make sure that they didn't get out of hand and dealing with Hollows here and there. Because of this, he could often time be seen patrolling the areas to see if he could find anything interesting or come across a joiner. These places weren't all that different from the clans that he had grown up around anyway. Not much about Ichigo's appearance had changed all that much. His sword was a lot larger, he had black markings on certain portions of his body, and his eyes were two different colors, but that was the extent. Of course, he had a couple of new scars to add to the list, but that was about it. He lumbered around, using his enhanced hearing to listen to the voices in the distance, and for once in a long time, he caught a voice that was familiar to him. His head moved upward slightly as he looked around where the voice had come from, and he heard voices soon after. It took Ichigo nearly ten minutes without using his powers to teleport to appear on the scene. It wasn't hard to hear the large wildcat coming, as his armor rattled with each step he took. A familiar form was in Sunhaven territory, someone he never thought that he would see again. His bi-colored eyes blinked slightly in surprise, as he made his way over, standing next to no one in particular. "Dimitri? That you?" Ichigo questioned. He always did when it came to seeing people that he thought were long gone. A test of his sanity to make sure that he wasn't going insane and that it was indeed Dimitri. He was relieved to see the guy seemed to be doing fairly well.
