"Are you copying that white-haired brat? You're still too young to say that with a straight face."
Yoruichi sat on the arm of the sofa, one hand on her hip as she looked down at Yuko, utterly speechless.
Yuko really was something else. How did she come up with so much nonsense?
Yoruichi couldn't figure it out.
"Mind your own business!" Yuko snapped, turning to glare at her.
"My own what?"
"Business!" Yuko corrected with a huff, earning an even more speechless look from Yoruichi.
Yoruichi broke into a sweat. Ignoring Yuko's antics, she turned her gaze to the two Zanpakuto on the table.
"How strange. They're twin Zanpakuto, but you can't use both abilities at once. Kyoraku and Jushiro never had that problem."

Jushiro Ukitake's Zanpakuto was one sword before release and became two afterward. Naturally, he could use the power of both once they were released.
Yuko drained her tea and set down the cup. After a moment's thought, she said, "Maybe something's missing."

The others gathered around.
Yuko looked at them gravely. "Do you think I might actually have something even rarer—three Zanpakuto?"
"...How do you figure?" Talking to her was exhausting. Where had that
