I am unharmed, Kuukaku-san, and have been taking great care to defend the hospital. Though there have, sadly, been casualties among the lower ranks, most of us are managing admirably.

And I am glad to see that you are as well as can be expected after so much combat with these creatures.

I heard that those things got into the hospital. I bet that was a mess and a half. Did they get far?

I'm fine, though. I've been in the Rukongai, trying to find people still alive and get them to safety. We have a few secured locations in the 2nd and 3rd districts right now that are being guarded by Abarai's people and a few volunteers.

Rukongai got hit hard, Unohana-taichou. There's some no man's lands stretching out from the walls to nearly the 4th district. Stuff's just...gone. These people will have nothing to go home to.

Not far, no. Though I did need to fight close range with those that managed to get through. Some, thankfully, I was able to lure out with a pulse of reiatsu before destroying. They did not reach the intensive care units.

I have heard reports of the situation in Rukongai. Would that we had been able to prevent such needless destruction. As soon as I can spare it, I intend to send aid; at least one of my officers has specifically requested such duty. For the moment, however, we are overtaxed due to the siege.

Good to hear. So they can be pulled around by reiatsu? I'll have to remember that.

Any help would be fantastic when you can. I can do yadou when I sit down and have a book to help me, but we dont have the time to do even that much. There's a lot injured people here, we've lost a few pluses to injuries rather than outright being chomped by these things.

Still alive here. Getting tired of all the ugly. I've taken down about sixteen of these damn things--seventeen if you count the one that became two after I split it down the middle... How many have you gotten? Maybe we should start keeping a ledger.

Re: [filter]

[shiba_explosion]

Ah fuck, I didn't even think to keep count. Between making rescue runs into deeper Rukongai, its just been one ass-ugly face after another. Burn 'em with kidou or tear them apart with Hakyouku, I'm just worried about the people out here.

By the way, your men have been one hell of a blessing. We've got a few secure spots in the second and third that wouldn't be possible if not for them. Thanks for sending them out here.

And I swear, if Kensei doesn't sit the fuck down and rest, I'm gluing him to the damn walls of Seireitei myself.

No worries, I'm glad they've been a help to you guys. Wish I could have come lent a hand myself, but I'm sure you guys can handle the situation. I think we've finally taken care of most of the ugly in Seireitei, so once we round up the injured and make sure we've secured things here, I can try and head out to you if you still need the help.

And you have my permission to do just that.

Re: [filter]

[shiba_explosion]

Good to know.

[Private]

Renji...Renji, Rukongai is completely demolished. Ruined. What are these people gonna do?

Re: [Same filter]

[shiba_explosion]

Burned arm. Charred fingers. Headache. Sore as fuck, and still yelling.

Good, I dont have to find enough glue to make you stick to the walls of Seireitei.

Re: [Same filter]

[shiba_explosion]

Hot springs sounds like a promise!

Hell, I know just the glue to use, too!

[god_of_games]

I'm holding you to that promise of sake.

[shiba_explosion]

Damn straight. There should be some good stories to be had after all this mess.

[god_of_games]

And I intend to tell them grandly and very loudly.

With a bottle in each hand.

[shiba_explosion]

Well shit, sounds like a damn good time then. Might have to mop up afterwards...

[the_rotator]

We lost some people, but we've managed to stabilize the situation. I'm very glad to see you're all right.

Ichigo was with you the last time he checked in--I take it he hasn't managed to hurt himself further?

[shiba_explosion]

[Holds out the phone towards the outside where a roar of "GETSUGA TENSHO! is heard through the connection.]

He's fine.

omg I irl lol'd

[the_rotator]

--I think that's the first time I've laughed in days.

XD

[shiba_explosion]

[Laughter]

I'll let him know you got a kick out of it.

Take care of yourself, you know he'll be pissy if he comes back and you're banged up too badly.
