[Ukitake makes a rare voice post. He's brave enough for video, but the fact remains that he is covered in blood, both his and someone else's, so he spares the network that much. Still, when the feed begins, his breathing is audible and it's clear that even that much is painful for him. But he soldiers on and speaks, his voice quieter than usual ( Read more... )

[When the feed flickers on, it shows a sight that has been showcased a few times recently.

[It's another unplanned post to the network as we see Ukitake kneel in front of a teapot and teacup.  He's popular this month, or so the PCDs must think.

His cup already has sugar in it and he puts in a teabag, one that Hitsugaya will recognize as being a gift from him for Christmas.  Then Ukitake starts to pour in the hot water.
