[The screen shakes a little as she tries to figure out how the communicator works. But once she manages to to get the camera to show her face, cheerful yet a bit tense.] I-is this working? Oh-hello! My name is Momo Hinamori. [She gives a slight bow of the head.] I am pleased to meet you all. I’m not sure if I have the whole story of this place, but

[After Matsumoto appeared, Izuru had begun checking the broadcasts regularly just in case, especially with the trouble that may be caused by his former captain's presence.

But...this was far from what he was expecting to see. He didn't WANT to see this girl in Death City, for her own sake and for his own guilt.]

[silverloyalty]

It's not dependant on you, though...

["it's dependant on people like me", is what he should say.]

[peachrayed]

[Sadly, she's oblivious to your internal conflict.]

Are you talking about what others might do in this war? Maybe we have faced Hollows that are worse than this. We've even seen them back in our Academy days, remember?

[silverloyalty]

[He inhales sharply at the mention of the Hollows from their training, just the thought of it reminds him of how clueless he was, and is.]

We nearly died that time...

[kldhdglh don't even talk about THOSE Hollows...]

Yes, I am talking about what others might do, but...those you may be close to already rather than strangers.

[peachrayed]

But we've learned a lot since then, haven't we? And it would have ended badly for Hisagi-kun that day.

I know I can trust you. Is there anyone else here?

[silverloyalty]

Of course we've all become much stronger, something like that wouldn't be a problem, but it still goes to show...we knew nothing about the reality of it. Even now we don't.

...

No, Hinamori-fukutaichou, I'm the one you can't trust.

[peachrayed]

No, we didn't...I was too easily taken advantage of myself. But I do know better now, even if it was late. I know I'll learn from this.

But why shouldn't I trust you? I know we weren't the best to each other before, but you know I've forgiven you. It's alright.

[silverloyalty]

I think you must be from a later time than I am. I don't deserve your forgiveness...

You can't trust me. Ichimaru-taichou is here.

[peachrayed]

A later time? What do you mean?

And I think you do. You're one of my good friends. At that time, we were tricked and didn't know what we were doing. And Ichimaru isn't a captain anymore. You're not his subordinate anymore, just like how I am not a subordinate of Aizen-taichou anymore.

[silverloyalty]

No, I told you, I'm a weapon. ...and Ichimaru-taichou is a meister.

As for times...it seems people can come from different points in time. For me it hasn't been long at all since...that incident. You were still very much injured.

[peachrayed]

Are you partners with him? But...why?

I was fully healed where I was from. And now I understand why you were so worried. So as I said before, you don't have to.

[silverloyalty]

Because he asked.

I'm still worried about more than that, though that is the main reason I believe you should simply rest.

['fully healed', are you sure? Not for long, if you stayed...]

[peachrayed]

That isn't a good reason for partnering with someone like him!

And I can't rest if I'm needed.

[silverloyalty]

You're right, but that's still my reason.

...Hinamori-kun, please don't put yourself in danger. [He decides to call her 'Hinamori-kun' again, as a way to appeal to her as her friend, though he doesn't see himself that way anymore.]

[peachrayed]

Is that what you do after what he's done? Get under his grasp again? [She's spoken up to Byakuya Kuchiki before; she's not afraid to do the same with you.]

[Although she can't really say that she wouldn't do the same with a certain other person...]

As for being safe, I'll try my best to.

[silverloyalty]

It would seem so, yes. I took the time to think about it, it's too late to sway me now.

That means you won't get involved with this war - or go after Ichimaru-taichou?
