Can't say I'm not glad to be back to something a little simpler. If the colors weren't so damned bright, the apartment might almost get to feeling like home. Almost.

As pleasant as that diversion was, we can't afford to be distracted any longer. It's clear from the way Kuro has been talking that he's planning to make a move soon, odds are when the weapons ban is lifted. It's also safe to say that we won't be alone in standing against him.
We'll have a slight advantage in defending if he follows his previous pattern of fixating on opponents he thinks are "strong"--it will make defending the ones who can't fight less of a burden if he's not paying attention to them. However, given his apparent intention to destroy whatever he can, we can't assume that's going to be the case.
With the end of the ban approaching, time is growing short. Gathering information now is more important than ever.
I want everyone armed, alert, and ready for action.
Ichimura...get someone to bring you up to date on recent events here. Just because you're not a fighter doesn't mean you won't be targeted, and I won't have my men ignorant.

I'm ready to begin whenever you are. Where should I meet you?

Footfalls on the floor
Moving, breathing, flying like
Petals on the wind
Ebon fringe waving
Exposing pale, slender thighs
Why can I not think?
When I see you smile
Even this strange wilderness
Can feel like a home
