It's Too Late to Apologize
The Apology Meme
You've done something incredibly stupid. Maybe you've said the wrong thing. Maybe you broke something that wasn't yours. Or, maybe you broke a promise. Whatever the reason, you have to find a way to apologize to the person you hurt.
Rules:
1. Post with your character name, fandom and preferences.
2. People reply to you using RNG (or not) to pick an option from both lists.
3. Roleplay the apology and decide if the person can ever be forgiven.
4. Have fun!
The Reasons
01. Caught Lying - Maybe you thought they wouldn't find out, or maybe you thought they wouldn't care. Whatever the reason, the other person is now mad at you.
02. Caught Cheating - You had an affair and you loved found out. Or, maybe you cheated on a test or game.
03. Heat of the Moment - The two of you were fighting and some hurtful things were said. Now it's time to make amends.
04. Broke Something - Whether it was on purpose or on accident, you broke something belonging to the other person.
05. Snooping - You were caught snooping in the other person's stuff, or maybe even their email or phone.
06. Gossip - The other person told you a huge secret, and you blabbed it to anyone who would listen.
07. Wildcard - Pick your own scenario!
The Apologies
01. Letter/email/text - It's kind of cheap, but it's a start, right?
02. Phone Call - Maybe calling them is a food first step.
03. Flowers - Have them delivered to them, or take them there yourself.
04. A Gift - It can as small, or as big as you'd like.
05. A Surprise Weekend Away - Maybe getting away will solve the problem.
06. Makeup Sex - Maybe it won't solve all your problems, but it's fun!
07. Wildcard - Whatever you'd like.

Must be quite a blow to that ego of yours to be on the other side of it. Regardless, I doubt apologizing to me will play such a role.
no subject
[He paused a moment to adjust his glasses.]
Now, as I've been lead to believe, part of getting out of Hell and readmitted to the cycle of life is to make amends with one's past grievances. As you are much easier to access than the shinigami, I started with you first.

Why would I want you back in the cycle of life?

Understand this, Espada. By coming to me first, by laying the first step of your so-called redemption at my feet, you have given me the burden of you, in your entirety.
It may be a new life, but trust that if you commit atrocities once more, I will find you. Whether in this life, or the next.
[ ...aaaand now he steps back, aside, gesturing stiffly to the space behind him. ]
Please, come in.

How surreal: standing standing side by side with the Octava Espada, in his cramped, yet orderly apartment. Still tense, still on guard. But, he moves to the tiny kitchen area to start tea. ]
You've already apologized. How, exactly, do you think you'll be so persuasive as to convince me to accept it, now that you're inside?
no subject
[Szayel shuffled inside enough to stand just outside of the kitchen area, standing back to observe Ishida.]
I fully acknowledge the fact that a simple apology would be, essentially, meaningless to you, but I'm not exactly versed in such tasks to know what would be effective.
his face looks so apologetic too slfkmsd
To begin with, the words alone are meaningless. But, more importantly, as far as I'm concerned, you don't owe me an apology. The idea is not a little absurd. You were an obstacle, and a very frustrating one at that, but it was also, in essence, a war. We were invading your land. Your methods were excessive and grotesque, but you were defeated before you could do any experimenting.
So... [ Nudging up his glasses. ]
Mala suerte, Octava. I neither want nor need your apology, and even if I was so inclined, I'd never believe you sincere. Either way, it isn't me to whom you should be apologizing.
LMAO
and stop sounding cute when you speak Spanish, Ishida.]And to whom precisely should I be apologizing too?
Quincy, I crushed your stomach, threatening to turn you into a lab rat... and admittedly would have used you for other activities once I was done. How does that not warrant an apology?

GO TO BED
Yes, and the cuarto espada tore off my arm. [ And if he hasn't been outright slaughtering hollows, he's handicapped and disgraced one Shinigami, and one Arrancar- in the process completely dooming her. ]
Neither of which I liked, but one shouldn't expect the enemy to go easy on him. Just how naive do you think I am? At fault was my weakness for being caught by your ability.
As for to whom you owe apologies, I think you would know better. Every test subject, of course. Such as the Thunderwitch. The problem being that they aren't in any position to receive them. Perhaps Inoue-san, too.
LOL I DID
[Szayel let out an exasperated noise; the Quincy's logic was sound of course, even if he wouldn't follow it himself. He personally wanted to rip that pineapple a new hole for destroying his lap, not to mention the horrible contemplations he's had about what he'd do to Mayuri if he had five seconds alone with him.]
[Still, what he was suggesting was ridiculous.]
Do you realize just how virtually impossible that is?
GOOD
Obviously. Such are your transgressions. The people to whom you most owe reparation, can never be reached. Your goal may be futile.
[ Sounding pretty bored. He turns to take out two cups and saucers. ]
LMAO
[Rather optimistic coming from him, but spending so much time in Hell changed his outlook a little bit.]
I need to start where I can.
