[The Forge clicks on to the image of Kaien Shiba. He's in his usual shihakushou--no winter wear this time, though there's a bundle carried in his arms and he looks just a little bit more tired than usual. He's still grinning, though. Broadly. More than usual as well. He's definitely pleased about something. He leans in towards the Forge a little, and gives a wave at the camera.]
Hey there, everyone. It's been a little while since I checked in on this thing, hasn't it? Sorry, been a bit preoccupied with some things.
[Namely, arguments with a certain stubborn noble, the carnival, and then helping out with the Headquarters.]
How's everyone doing?
Byakuya, when did you want to go into the Mist again?
Oh, and Angeal--I got that sword for you. [He maneuvers the bundle in his arms a little and holds the weapon up in front of the Forge's camera, still grinning.]
This is what you were looking for, right? To be honest, I didn't actually know what a 'broadsword' was, so I asked around. [a bit of a sheepish laugh, there]
I even got it for free after doing some chores for the vendor. [And here, the grin broadens, a lot. Kaien is clearly very pleased about this fact. So now you don't have to pay me anything is left unspoken.]
