|35| Destruction in our Wake [Filtered to the Silvana]

[inyourmidst]

Seems like we just missed quite a show.

[Filtered to Alex, Agrais, Aizen and all members of the Bellcius mission | Unhackable]

Something you forgot to tell us, Captain?

Comments

[ filter | Gin | Unhackable ] PRETEND THIS IS A PLACEHOLDER TAG

[gazeintothesun]

A little earlier than I expected.

[ filter | Aizen | Unhackable ] OH YOU

[inyourmidst]

You don't sound terribly surprised. I hope there isn't anything you forgot to tell me.

[ filter | Gin | Unhackable; Voice ] LAST ONE BEFORE I NAP OR REST OR SOMETHING

[gazeintothesun]

[He sounds rather thoughtful now. Not quite teasing.]

Forgot, no.

[A soft hmm.]

I can't say it came as a surprise, but this was certainly a novel way to accomplish things.

[ filter | Aizen | Unhackable ] FFFFF LIES, I SEE

[inyourmidst]

[And after the most recent announcements.]

Oh my. It looks like we might have been accidentally responsible for the death of the president.

[A beat of pause, and then in an amused tone.]

Happy early birthday, sir.

[dontkillmebro]

I can't believe this is happening again.

[inyourmidst]

Seems we can't go anywhere without something exploding. It's almost like we're bad luck.

[dontkillmebro]

Well, that is what people say.

[inyourmidst]

Perhaps our cursed reputation isn't as far from the truth as I thought. Worried, Sara-chan?

[adiosasshole]

...tell me you had nothing to do with this Ichimaru.

[Voice | Filtered to Shinji] Ahahaha, soooo messing with him nao.

[inyourmidst]

What on earth makes you think that I would have gone and done a terrible thing like that.

[My lack of sincerity, let me show you it.]

[Voice | Filtered to Gin] ...walked right into that

[adiosasshole]

I dunno, how about the fact that you and a chunk of the crew were missing until recently.

[Voice | Filtered to Shinji] Gin's just too used to playing guilty~

[inyourmidst]

Ah yes. Kind of an interesting coincidence, isn't it? How long do you think it would take to plant a few bombs in the Parlimentary building? About as long as you were in Solare~?

[ filter | Silvana ]

[gazeintothesun]

Death and wanton destruction can hardly be called a performance.

[ filter | Silvana ] Public snarking is go!

[inyourmidst]

Really? It certainly didn't take long for it to become a spectacle, and I think if you listen carefully you'll hear the sound of all of Vohemar applauding.

[ filter | Silvana ] /digs deep to find naive ideals

[gazeintothesun]

Those people were hardly actors, Mr. Ichimaru, and Bellcius is not a stage. More than that, this event will affect countless people -- lives, not disinterested audience members.

[ filter | Silvana ] /digs...well, not so deep to find something appropriately antagonistic

[inyourmidst]

Pretty words, Sousuke. You're kind of like a politician yourself, aren't you? But no matter how nicely you say it, you can't do much about the fact that this is really nothing more than a trivial entertainment for most. Presidents come and go. They'll be forgotten soon enough.

Much like you will be~

Filtered to Gin | hopefully unhackable | Shaky, shaky voice

[apologizer]

The similarities between the incident and our mission are undeniable. If it's our fault, sir...

[He tries so hard to compose himself]

I've had little experience dealing with the Captain firsthand, but he does not seem the type to lie about the purpose of a mission in order to accomplish a goal. Unless there are other factors of which I'm unaware.

Filtered to Kira | Unhackable | Authorative Confidence heah~

[inyourmidst]

Don't lose your head, Izuru. Whatever happens, the last thing we can afford to be is careless.

Show me that my trust in you wasn't misplaced.
