Byakuya was my very first favorite character in Bleach :) So I hold him close to my heart. That's why I worry so much on depicting him correctly in my fics, too.

And yes, I do agree that he is much like water, perhaps I shall use that comparison in my next fic :) I'm happy to know someone who also cherishes Byakuya liked my vision of him~!

Yes, yes, I find it to be very endearing how they are quite the embodiment of 'opposites attract' :3
