"A way...to look at my...soul...?" Keman's eyes went wide. Was that even possible? And it was green?
"Well..." he said with a crooked smile. "At least it's unique!" He liked being unique. All of the two-leggers looked so similar! It was nice to know that there was something that set him apart.
"I know how you feel, about being stuck in a body," the dragon said, frowning. "I don't know how this place is doing it, but it's completely sealed off my ability to shift back to my natural form. So...I'm stuck too."
He watched Rukia react to his story with a funny little smile on his face. It surprised (and amused, just a little) him that people were so fascinated with it. He hadn't had time, while everything was happening, to reflect on it, but now that he was so far removed from the events...
"I guess," he shrugged. "That's just how it happened."
As for winning the war? Keman sighed. "I've been wondering that myself. I think we did, but I was taken before it all really sank in. Valyn died, and then--"
He froze. "Oh know. I've said something I shouldn't have again. P-please, disregard that last bit." If Valyn found out that he'd been spreading rumors about his apparent demise, he'd probably get upset.
The dragon smiled at Renji, still rather pink from his slip-up. "He's very kind. And...for what it's worth, it isn't just me anymore." He pointed to a red-haired girl sitting a few tables away, holding a rather one-sided conversation with Valyn. His poor hand. "My sister arrived during the last shift."
