"Ghosts that have gone too long without passing over," Rukia says, eyes carefully searching his expression for any reaction that comes, gaze carefully brushing along the thin and even press of his lips. He's had experience with ghosts, clearly, in the way that Don Kanonji's had experience, not necessarily knowing what's best for them.

"All people become spirits when they die, but they can't stay forever in the living world. If a reaper does not take them to the next place quickly enough." She glances over her shoulder, even though the dust of the Hollow's long since settled. "Then that happens. They need to consume other people's souls to try and replace the one they lost."
