[this? This is an incredibly irritated Quincy out in the Darkness. Scattered rooftops fill in the background, suggesting he's somewhere high up. He take a long, shaky breath.]

I need some assist -

[AND SUDDENLY: SHRIEKING] You need assistance?! I'm the one trapped on some building with a murderer! - Who are you calling? Help! HELP!

[If Hitsugaya had more of a sense of humour, he'd probably find this funny. And honestly, idiot though she is, the woman isn't exactly wrong about what Ishida does to souls, now is she?]

Honestly. If you were going to destroy her soul, you'd have just shot her already. Doesn't she realize that?

[An arrancar and now a shinigami responding to this. Such a lovely night, isn't it, Uryuu?]

[THANKS A LOT, HITSUGAYA, YOU'VE SET HER OFF SHRIEKING AGAIN. Uryuu cringes.] Quiet! I'm not going to - !

Would you both stop saying things like that? I was only fighting the Darkness! [it hardly counts!]

And no, obviously she doesn't.

[HE'S JUST BEING LOGICAL, OKAY? Also, his people skills suck. A lot, as shall be evidenced here.] Twisted as they are, they're still souls, and that's what your power does to them. She's being an idiot about this whole thing, but she's not exactly wrong about that much.

[A beat.] Why can't you just get ahold of her and transport her somewhere safe with hirenkyaku?

As there obviously aren't enough Shinigami to prevent people from being consumed, I suggest everyone keep their comments about it to themselves. [coldly.

...Which melts into something more embarrassed at the question] I'm not holding someone who keeps trying to knee me when I get close.

[He does sound vaguely annoyed at the barb, but hey. There are only three shinigami (from their world, at least) in the city right now. He can't really argue the point.] I'm not telling you not to fight. I'm just stating facts. And from the sounds of things, she wouldn't be to enthused about anyone fighting the Darkness, destroying souls or not.

Is there some reason you can't deal with something like that? [He has no sympathy. You can fight Darkness monsters, but can't deal with a woman trying to knee you in a sensitive area? Grow up.]

[sequincy]

[just because you're short enough to be a harder target, Hitsugaya...]

I'm not going to physically subdue an innocent woman, however annoying she is. Not when I'm the only cause of her hysterics. It's easier for both of us if someone else steps in.

You're obviously free enough to lecture me - perhaps you should be the one to escort her home, Shinigami.

[Even if he were tall enough, he's not quite as big on chivalry as you are. And seriously, he wasn't even talking about subduing. Uryuu is fast enough that it shouldn't be an issue. That's honestly all he meant.]

[You can almost hear the eyeroll in his voice; does no one understand him when he speaks? But he's not going to bother explaining himself any further to a Quincy who just refuses to get it.] I do have a few down moments if you really can't handle this. [Yep, being a little mean intentionally this time. But the offer is sincere.]

Voice

[sequincy]

Tch. It's your choice. Someone will come either way.

Re: Voice

[icy_heavens]

Fine. [Yeah, that's not an ambiguous statement or anything. But he does intent to show up. He's a nice guy in his own weird, abrasive way. And there's no need to ask for the location, as Uryuu's reiatsu is easy to spot.]

[[OOC: *notices the action thread below* Shall we bother with it ourselves, or no?]]

[sequincy]

[Cass has already shown up and taken control of the situation by that point. Uryuu's alone on the roof, trying to salvage his costume before he'll take his leave for the night.]
