After a while, Arashi didn't say anything, before apologizing "I'm sorry you suffered because of my absence, they...were afraid of me due to my reputation, if it weren't for that they would have bothered you even while I was there." He explained to her softly, Arashi didn't elaborate further, the last thing he needed to do was to scare her off by discovering that when a fight he started he turned into a psychopath rivaling Zaraki Kenpachi.

It was why he'd joined the 13th Squad, Ukitake was mentoring him and teaching him in advanced meditation rituals that helped calm his violent side, which was also why he was always amiable and mild-mannered around others, but they had heard the rumors, there were many who wondered how much of it was just a mask...hiding the man underneath it who reveled in the battle, the blood and the slaughter.

Closing his eyes he took deep breaths, falling into a breathing pattern to calm himself, when he felt in control he resumed normal breathing. then asked "You seem confused even now, look at me." When she did so, gazing into his eyes, he knew she could see the turmoil held back by tranquility, "I have something that I can teach you, something that Ukitake was teaching me even before I left the academy, I can pass on those teachings to you now, I think you will find them of benefit...to calm whatever storms beset your heart, most importantly, learning to calm yourself will make it easier to communicate with your zanpaktou, my Captain told me that it's possible to obtain Bankai easier and faster if you learn these meditation techniques."

Looking into the sky he saw they had plenty of time "There's no time like the present, I say we begin now."
