Urahara blinked and looked
over at Tessai for a moment as they both pressed their ears to
Jinta's bedroom door. Were they hearing the conversation they thought
they were hearing?!

“What makes it stand
up like that?” Ururu's voice could be heard asking curiously.

“Jeez, Ururu, yer so
dumb. Don't tell me you can't tell!” Jinta's voice was heard
now.

“I-I'm sorry...Can I
touch it this time? You never let me touch it...” Ururu said in
a voice that sounded both sad and hopeful.

Urahara's eyes widened.
Little Ururu was that curious?? He looked at Tessai, who seemed very
disapproving. It wasn't that Urahara disapproved, per se, it was more
that he was surprised. Then again, he supposed he shouldn't be. It
had just been so very long since he had been a child himself, even
though he was often accused of acting like one.

If the two were so curious
about this subject, he would feel much better if they would come to
either himself or Tessai, or even Yoruichi when she was around, to
ask questions. Finding out through exploration was rather common, but
not altogether safe. Even children as young as Jinta and Ururu
could...get into trouble. He knew for a fact, though he didn't quite
like remembering just how he had been forced to find out, that Ururu
was not physically just a little girl any longer. At least, not when
it came to her...inner workings.

“No, I don't trust
you not to hurt it.” Jinta said, sounding defensive.

“I promise I'll be
really gentle...” Ururu said in her soft, reassuring and
slightly sad tone of voice.

Urahara nearly choked on
air as he heard that. Sweet little Ururu! Did she realize what she
must sound like to Jinta?? Not that Urahara was a pedophile. He was
nothing of the sort. This sort of behavior really wouldn't have
surprised him at all when it came to Jinta, but Ururu was such
a...good little girl. Sweet and innocent...and Jinta was going to
corrupt her!

“Well...okay. But
just this once!” Jinta said, sounding the way he usually did
when he was a bit embarrassed and trying to cover it up.

Urahara blinked in stunned
surprise as Tessai nearly broke Jinta's door down with a mighty lunge
against it, though later they would find it had been unlocked the
entire time, and pointed a finger at the two children while having
his face turned away from them...After all, he didn't want to see any
little children in any state of undress or arousal!

“Alright you two,
that's enough!” Tessai cried, quite loudly in fact.

The children blinked at
Tessai as if he were certifiably insane as they turned around from
some ceramic toy of a superhero from a comic book of Jinta's.
Probably a collector's item of some kind that stood on feet rather
than any sort of little platform. Which did make it not only one of
Jinta's most breakable items but probably one of his most prized,
explaining why he had been a bit embarrassed to be nice enough to let
Ururu touch it.

“Um...stop what?”
Jinta asked, too stunned to be obnoxious.

Tessai opened his eyes and
blinked a couple of times before turning to look at the children.
Both were fully clothed and staring at some little toy on Jinta's
dresser.

“...You both have
clothes on.” Tessai said, stating the obvious.

Urahara snapped his fan
open and hid his grin behind it. This was quite a hilarious
situation.

“Why wouldn't we??
I'd never wanna see HER without clothes on!” Jinta cried out in
a horrified voice that just barely convincing.

“Yes, Tessai, what
did you think they were doing in here?” Urahara asked, his grin
becoming wide behind his fan as he pretended to fan himself with it.
