☆ 001 [video]

[The feed is an EXTREME CLOSE-UP on Renji's eye as he peers into the lens, then pulls the device back and tilts it on its side. It's pretty obvious he doesn't really know what he's doing with this technology nonsense. He definitely looks a bit worse for wear--he's bleeding visibly and appears to have scorch marks all over his face and upper torso

Voice

[wellsuited]

I think you might need a band-aid.

[video forever]

[i_love_taiyaki]

For this? Nah, s'just a flesh wound. I've definitely had worse.

[headscratch] Who's this? I don't think I recognize your voice. D'you know where we are?

[video]

[wellsuited]

Really? What gave that to you?

[Color her interested.]

I'm Elena. And you're in Anatole now. I'm not sure if that's good or bad but...things seem to be working for most of us.

[i_love_taiyaki]

Jackass by the name of Szayel Aporro-Grantz. [He'll leave out the part where the burn marks are his own damn fault. He regards Elena for a moment, then scratches his head.]

Anatole? Where's that?

[yetsleeping]

Um! You're bleeding, are you... I mean, do you need help? Medical attention? Assistance of any kind?!

[video forever]

[i_love_taiyaki]

Ah? Er... no, I'm okay, really. This prolly looks worse than it is. [pause.] No offense, but... do I know you?

[VOICE forever! unless she changes it.]

[yetsleeping]

...no! Not at all!

[...]

Because I haven't met you yet.

[...yeah. Well. Obviously. She taps the Forge.]

I'm Priscilla. Who are you?

[i_love_taiyaki]

[IRREFUTABLE LOGIC!]

Uh. Hi, Priscilla, I'm Renji. So now that we've been properly introduced... what in the hell is going on here? [There's no anger in his voice or expression, he's just genuinely baffled now.]

[Byakuya plays the things on the Forge while he works, as ignoring anything that doesn't seem worthy of his time has caused him unnecessary trouble.

He hardly pays attention to the video. That is, until he hears the voice to accompany it. His brush strokes stop and he frowns at the Forge for a moment.]

[ video ]

[xnoble_reasonx]

[It's over as quickly as it struck, setting the brush aside and lifting the Forge to respond.]

Renji. [The look he receives makes it clear he must stop and listen. His captain's patience has been pushed to its limits as of late.]

[video forever]

[i_love_taiyaki]

[Looooong pause goes here. WTF, Byakuya wasn't supposed to be in Hueco Mundo. What is this, I don't even.]

T-taichou? [Headscratch; this can't be happening.] Okay, now I know I'm just bein' fucked with.

[xnoble_reasonx]

[That vulgar language. Even a year among the common man hasn't broken his distaste of it. He has not missed it.]

Your wounds came from battle in Hueco Mundo? [It doesn't sound like a question, but it is.]

[brothercumface]

W - who are you trying to sense, mister?

[video forever]

[i_love_taiyaki]

[What's this, a little girl? If Grantz is screwing with kids now, Renji will not be pleased. Well... more not pleased.]

Just some jackass who's been givin' me a hard time. Uh... [Well, she doesn't look injured, at least.] If you see a guy with pink hair and glasses, just turn and run the other way, okay?

[video forever]

[brothercumface]

[little? can't you see the seventeen year old style boobs?]

[she seems to think, blinking and cocking her head to the side thoughtfully.]

Pink hair? I never thought someone who liked the color pink could be mean or give someone a hard time.

[i_love_taiyaki]

[Well she's got a young face! Besides, when you're like over a hundred, most people look like kids. XD]

Maybe he didn't get to choose his hair color, or maybe he just likes being contrary. Or both. Either way, he's bad news. I'm told he ain't here, but it still bears warning.

I'm Renji, by the way.
