An End To Denial
Thread Links
Start
We begin right where we left off, after learning she has a Hollow in her she turns to Nagisa for help leading to a meeting with Tokiyo, who shuts down her new found hope.
Facing Truth
Invasion
Reeling from her crisis of faith after what she thought was her new proper journey the invasion occurs. Nanami sets out to defend the Rukongai, shakes Cheshire free of Obsessions control but finds her violent nature tested by Iko. After overcoming Iko by dipping in to her vile nature she is lost in a sea of violence against the Hollow's hunting through the Rukongai where she meets Kionchi who tests her to have her fall further, she pulls back, just barely and is shaken by the encounter.

Nanami as Teacher
Following the invasion, a series of threads detailing Nanami's role guiding Ginjo and Kirito on their way forward.
Regaining Lost Strength
Hit Harder Move Faster
Aimless Nanami
While she has responsibilities in the 5th she often finds ways to skirt her responsibilities and sets off to the Rukongai to hunt a witch, where she is once more chilled by her own divided nature.
Proclivites
Lil Frey Arc
A step back and a flash forward to one of Nanami's greatest failings. She met Frey and promised to protect her, only to break her promise when she was swept up back into the Seireitei and ultimately faces her failure, after too long. She suffers for this, and faces down Freyleif's fury stoically, until it burns out and she can apologize.
Reading Rainbow
Facing Mistakes (Unfinished, my last 'real' post was Nov 22, everything after that edited post is non-canon subject to a rewrite that never quite materialized)
Captain of 5th
Detailing some of the duties as Captain of the Fifth as she tackled two of the Seireitei's probably greatest wastes of potential, Victoria and Genki to try and help them get off the same path she was once on, wasting away without direction.
Get Noodled (Unfinished)
Old Friends (In progress???)
Kasumi Captain of the 5th
After Nanami kicked Kirito's face in Kasumi sought her out. This ultimately would signal the coming end of their friendship as Nanami unintentionally pushes her down the path to seeking power. Nanami discards Kasumi's opinion regarding her treatment of Kirito resulting in Kasumi deciding to take the Haori for herself. Nanami takes advantage of Kasumi's softness to keep the Haori from her. This culminates in a second challenge in which Kasumi, having embraced a desire for power, easily trounces Nanami who limps her way from the field leaving the new Captain of the Fifth her victory.
Bloody Hands (Follows Hit Harder Move Faster)
The Right To Lead
Roll the Dice
Prestige
See Prestige Request for more details. Nanami seeks out rumors leading her to Evelynn who challenges her stance as a Shinigami who denies her Hollow eventually leading to an explosive confrontation that forces Nanami to look her darkest self in the faces and embrace it finally becoming whole.
Left or Right?
Turning a New Leaf
Recovering in Las Noches
Wounded from her conflict with Eve she convalescences in Las Noches wishing to master her powers before she returns home to the Seireitei. The least developed in actual writing part of this arc, it came during sparse period of activity for Hollow players. She ruminates on the nature of Hollows and their purpose in the grand scheme of the cycle, ultimately learning to embrace the pieces of that in her own nature and seeing how that balance not only brings her harmony, but brings harmony to the world as well.
Mutual Study of Darkness
Capstone
Nanami returns to the Seireitei excitedly wanting to tell Kasumi about her new realization and evolution, only to have it thrown once more back in her face. This time, she does not back down like she did with Tokiyo she stands up for herself. What begins as a moment of tea amongst friends devolves into a vicious battle where her former friend Kasumi reveals a vile nature of her own and nearly kills her. She escapes, narrowly and resolves that this world must change.
Lasting Lesson
What's changed?

Lasting Lesson
What's changed?
Nanami has gone from absolutely certain she can forever resist her Hollow, to losing that confidence becoming swallowed by the despair of it all to coming out the otherside having found the balance she was actually looking for all along. She's found the strength to stand up, and has seen that the world around her is very sick indeed, gripped by the same denial that once poisoned her soul. She's resolute in finding a solution, in working to bring the world back to balance.
She's encountered countless individuals, Frey, Cheshire, Iko, Kionchi, Nagisa, Ginjo, Kirito, Tomie, Genki, Evelynn, and more. Each of them she left impressions, some minor and other significant altering their and absolutely her course, not least of which is Kasumi whom a great deal of this arc rests upon. In some cases, Nanami was given a chance to reflect on her incorrect assumption that the monster within her was a vile thing she had to overpower, ultimately guiding her to her prestige. Some she helped make significant strides in their own personal journey, such as Ginjo, Frey, Cheshire and Kasumi.
This arc covered the signifcant swath of Nanami's personal journey, bringing her into Prestige and ultimately moving her journey from an inward one to the world stage. Nanami knows who she is now. After her conflict with Kasumi she's resolved, she sees clearl that the Seireitei is sick, rotten to its core and she's the one who has to fix it. In her two thousand journey she knows what it means to balance both 'good' and 'bad', and how absolutely vital it is to all of existence to do so. And she knows words aren't going to do it.

The Next Chapter
To Las Noches, to Earth, to the Quincy, Spiritualists, Arrancar, Hollow and everyone inbetween. The disparate aimless groups in desperate need of direction, of a plan and someone to watch over, guide them to strength so that she might use that strength to right the course of the Seireitei which has so woefully run off the rails. Nanami will be there, in the shadows, on the front lines, wherever she is needed to bring the Shinigami back into proper balance.
