Chapter 2

By the way, what is a "barbeque"?

You don't know?

I-I could tell from the context of the conversation that there will be food.

Well, that's about right.

A barbeque is an event where people gather outside and eat together.

You cook things like meat and vegetables and eat while enjoying each other's company.

Why do you know so much about this world, anyway?

He must have a lot of free time on his hands.

I was pretending to be Ichigo the whole time Rukia was captured in the Soul Society.

People would get suspicious if I don't know some things. It's all thanks to my hard work, you know.

I guess you're right.

Pretending to be you is harder than you think!

I wish you'd show some appreciation for once.

Alright, alright.

Good! Now, let's get some people together for the barbeque!

Who could we invite? You're going to be there, after all.

Why don't we invite some people from the Soul Society?

Kon's identity won't be an issue with Soul Reapers.

Good idea, Rukia!

Then I'll go to the Soul Society and talk to some people.

We'll see you later then!

I'll leave the invitations for the world of the living up to you.

Alright, let's go, Ichigo!

Okay, okay, just stay inside the bag.

Oh, Orihime!

...and four-eyes.

Well, this is an unusual combination.

I guess so. Are you two shopping?

Yeah, we ran out of cloth to use at the home-handicrafts club.

What are you guys... Oh!

Are you getting ready for the barbeque we talked about?

Barbeque?

Yeah! We're going to do it sometime soon.

Sounds fun, right? We're actually looking for more people to invite. You could come if you want.

No thanks, I...

You should come too, Uryu.

I'm thinking of bringing a lot of food.

It'll be fun if everyone's there.

Well, if you insist.

I'll let you guys know when the time and place is decided then.

There might be a lot of people coming.

The equipment will take up a lot of space, so we'll need to find a place that's spacious enough.

Let's get a lot of meat, too! I want to eat to my heart's content.

So we'll need to find a place, and go shopping for food. Should we split up again?

Where do they sell meat for barbeques anyway?

Hey, Ururu, did you hear that?

Yeah, they're having a barbeque.

Let's talk to Urahara about it!
