Glad to see you're back! Looking forward to really getting into this new story of yours! Hope all's been well with you and yours!
Nice to see a new story and happy to see more Grimm/Karin, even if its under less than happy conditions. I take it the war against the Quincy isnt going in the good guys favor with there possible arrancar allies being regressed into there lesser, weaker states and and lesser Shinigami getting captured and now Karin has been captured to be either bait or food. Gotta love the stones on Karin though, even when she has no chance she is still gonna make ya work for that kill and get in a few shots despite the power gap.
Honarable or perhaps more pragmatic of Grimmjow to spare and help Karin, especially after being reverted to a less humanoid, both physically and perhaps mentally, hollow form but i also wonder just how she will react to her savior once some of the darker aspects of their situation rear its head. Would Stark being regressed mean he has reverted to his state prior to splitting with Lillinette and thus still pack quite a punch or was she still killed in this verse?
