Ulquiorra parked his car in his brother's driveway, looking up at the blue-painted house as he stepped out. He wouldn't admit to Nnoitra just how glad he was for this opportunity to fill his empty house, but he had a feeling the taller man knew already. After all, he was giving Ulquiorra first look at the kittens, even before he put them up for sale.

He opened the door after only one knock, something that was rather rare, and gave his wide, toothy grin. "Hey, bro. How'ya doin'?"

"Well enough, thank you," Ulquiorra said, passing the threshold into Nnoitra's casual family room. Over there, in the corner, was an area blocked off by plastic baby gates, unusual in the otherwise familiar atmosphere.

"Yep, that's them," Nnoitra said, noticing Ulquiorra's look. "Come on over. Remember they're a little too young to pick up just yet." Ulquiorra followed his brother over to the area his shoes sinking into the white carpet. He would admit he was surprised how clean the carpet- and everything else- was. He had never been to Nnoitra's house right after a litter had been born before, and while he knew that his brother went on a cleaning spree so the vulnerable youngsters wouldn't get sick he was amazed a at the work the normally lazy man put into it. It spoke volumes of the softer side of Nnoitra- not that Ulquiorra would allow himself to forget the way Nnoitra was most of the time.

Nnoitra crouched by the improvised enclosure, and Ulquiorra stood beside him. Hallibel, the mother, looked up at him calmly with eyes as green as his own. Ulquiorra had always liked Hallibel. "Hello, Ulquiorra-san," he greeted as a little kitten crawled over her lap.

"Hello Hallibel-san," Ulquiorra returned the greeting. "I trust you're doing well?"

"Well enough, yes," Hallibel replied,echoing Ulquiorra's earlier response to Nnoitra, her injured ear twitching as a fly flew by. Ulquiorra was never sure what had ripped her right ear, but then it didn't really matter. There was a yelp, and three pairs of eyes were drawn to two dueling kittens in the corner. "Mila Rose, Apache," Hallibel said with an aura of serene authority, and the kittens growled at each other one last time before the one with caramel skin like her mother's slipped off the other, who was paler and had mixmatched blue and yellow eyes. All of the kittens were now a month old, their hair already full, and their baby fat was disappearing at a rate unnatural for human children. They appeared like miniature toddlers, and even at this point Ulquiorra could tell that both girls would be quite beautiful. Still, they were too energetic for Ulquiorra's quiet life. He turned his eyes to the others.

There was a slim, pale kitten who had purple eyes and a far calmer disposition, but to Ulquiorra she appeared to be looking at Apache and Mila Rose down the bridge of her nose and Ulquiorra did not work well with condescending people. He was having to go upon just that, how well he would work with them, because outside of his family he had never before had a relationship that wasn't professional. That was why he was here.

The kitten in Hallibel's lap had shocking blue hair, but tit was clear that he had become used to perhaps a little too much coddling and Ulquiorra's independent ways did not bode well for that. A small female kitten caught Ulquiorra's eye and held it for a moment. She had green hair and calm honey-colored eyes, and Ulquiorra sensed that she had a similar demeanor to her mother. He knew that having a neko like that in his household would be, quite possibly, ideal.

He got the feeling of being looked at and turned his head. His eyes were met by small blue ones that looked up at him in interest from where a kitten sat almost patiently. He locked gazed with the young male immediately, noting his tan skin and bone structure that promised strength and rugged handsomeness to come. This one's hair was as electrically blue as his brother's, but his ears were as green as his sister's hair where they protruded from his skull in the same place as a human ear. The blue eyes, accented with green markings, held a quiet expectation of him, and the hinting of an intelligence yet to mature. Ulquiorra felt without a shade of doubt that this was his neko.

Nnoitra patted him on the back suddenly enough to surprise him, grinning and saying, "Aha! See, I told you you'd know which one you wanted." Hallibel, too, had her eyes locked on him.

"His name is Grimmjow," she said, "although as his owner you have the right to change his name."

"No," Ulquiorra stated, "I like his name." He found it somehow fitting, like a good shoe worn many times. Funny, never before had he gotten a feeling that a name was appropriate. To him a name was simply an undeniable fact, but in this case it felt like an identity. "When can I take him home?"

"It takes a year and a half for nekos to be ready to leave their mothers," Nnoitra informed him. A year and a half? It seemed a long time to wait, but Ulquiorra reminded himself to be patient. He had waited until he was twenty-six to attempt finding a companion, and he could wait until he was nearly twenty-eight to receive him. After all, he had found him, and that in itself was a victory.

"Very well," Ulquiorra nodded his understanding. "I appreciate your allowing me first choice." He had a feeling that if he had waited until after Nnoitra opened sales Grimmjow would have been one of the first gone.

"Anything for my lonely brother," Nnoitra teased cheekily, pinching Ulquiorra's pale face. Ah, and there went the gentility, flying out the window. Ulquiorra didn't know why his sibling could't be as well-behaved all the time as he was when tending to nekos. He said his goodbyes to Hallibel and headed out the door, inwardly very pleased with his choice.

He could feel that Grimmjow's eyes didn't leave his back until the door was closed.
