You'll Never Catch Them....

Well I'm definitely not going to miss an opportunity to go out on the town and have some fun. Ki~suke~ are you coming along? You've been holed up in the lab way too long, if you don't get out on your own I'm going to drag you out.

Ran, Rangiku, Inoue, Rukia, Zah, Senna? Don't tell me you lot are going to miss this. I know Sarah's going, we should all go out and watch the fireworks and have a drink. Shunsui, you and Jyuushirou as well.


I even got a dress for the occasion. ^___^

Meh, I've never really been the artistic type. All of that stuff just takes so long, and most of it's boring. Like all that ceremonial crap they made me do when I was a kid. Learning calligraphy, and ikebana, and dancing. I never saw much of a purpose for it. But I can sew, though. It used to come in handy a lot.

( Wanna See? )



[ooc: So, is she cursed~? Who knows! XD. She's certainly not telling.]

Well, I'd be lying if I tried to say that wasn't amusing and strangely endearing yesterday. It was kind of nice to be a "god" for a day, being worshiped by all those enormous cats. But at the same time, almost too much like the old days in Seireitei..


( Tatsuki )

( Kisuke )

Oi Rangiku. You almost ready? We must make our entrance, ne?

Zah, I'm not going to have to drag you there too, am I? Because don't think I won't if I have to~


[ooc: She's having fun with this. XD. Wearing this dress, with this choker and red strappy stilettos.]

Happy Holidays, it would seem.

Greed, Jyuushirou, Shunsui, Rukia, Orihime, Ichigo, Senna, Ran, anyone I might have forgotten...

Since I'm not always the most inventive sort, hope you won't mind something a little less personal.


Oh, Senna. Added something special to yours, thought it would come in handy.


Enjoy


[ooc: Anyone who's friends with Yoru got one of these on their doorstep. Senna's has a black iron key tucked into it.]

[Filtered from Hitsugaya;]

So, anyone know what time this thing's scheduled for? And Ran, anything you need from me?

( Private/Unhackable )

........

So he is gone...

No one got hurt in that idiot's explosion, did they?


[Filtered to Shinigami;]

Kisuke's left again, to any of you who didn't notice. Anyone who was using the underground area to train, you don't have to stop doing so, I've got a key to it as well.

[/filtered]

I'm off. Time to do some more exploring.


[ooc: Off wandering, distracting herself from Kisuke's leaving. Not that she'll admit that's the reason.]

I actually don't hate that stupid hat of his as much as he thinks.

Kisuke, I imagine you're staying either out of this or right in the middle of it. Be careful, you big oaf.

Isshin, if you need more space -- since I'm sure the hospital is probably getting full -- you can make use of the temple, we've got plenty of room here.

Shinigami, everyone alright out there? Kisuke's better at healing kidou than I am, but I can at least manage some basic stuff if you get a bit singed.

[Filtered to Shinigami;]

Alright, it's time we stopped fooling around and got a little bit of organization here. Seireitei or not, I'm still the commander of the Corrections Corps and if no one here is going to take charge of the situation than I will.

Report in, so we can come up with a strategy.



[ooc: So Yoru if she'd never followed Kisuke into exile. Rather, she stayed and turned her back on things and just threw herself into her duty as Commander. Naturally, that made her a good deal more hardened and bitter in some ways, and she really doesn't want to see Kisuke, because not only is it painful to be reminded of what they had, but he's an exile and she ought to be trying to detain him.]

Hey Kisuke. Know what today is?

It's "avoid all the boring Captain stuff you're supposed to do" day. Come on, there's way more fun stuff to do!



[ooc: Enjoy teenage!Yoru~ Just graduated academy and is not at all amused with the idea of boring Special Forces work.]

To anyone who I.... deceived and led to harm...... all I can say is how sorry I am. I.... never would have expected to.... I'm sorry.

[Private/Hackable with Effort]

I...it's still like some sort of hazy dream. Kisuke.... I can't believe I said such...

......Is it wrong that some part of me almost wants to think it might in some way be good? Not because I wanted to say those things. God, how could I want to?, but... we said we'd put the distance back, keep from getting too close, too involved. Too emotional. And I can't help but feel like.... this is just more proof that it was a bad idea I have to try harder....

God, I'm such a horrible thing.....even cursed, I can't.... just can't forgive myself this.....

hurting him like that.... it just... nothing should have done that, no matter what curse...and he isn't even sure I didn't mean it...

I can't face him.... not... not after that.... I need to get away.... If I don't stay around.... maybe that would just solve everything.

[/Private]

[Private to Greed/Locked;]

Hey Greed. You got some time? I need a distraction, and my shoulders are killing me.

[Locked to Byakuya/Unhackable;]

Everything's ready, I'll be waiting. I trust you won't meet with too much trouble.

[Filtered to Accused and Allies of Accused;]

To all those who need a place to hide out in until this blows over, I've got one for you. You can hide out in our underground training area. Rukia or Kisuke knows where it is, otherwise come to the temple and I'll let you in. Hurry, and be subtle about it. If they figure it out, there'll be a lot of trouble.

[Filtered to Inquisitors;]

It's going according to plan, just stand by until you receive my signal.



[ooc: SOO, she's totally a double-agent of sorts and she's working with Byakuya to lure in some witches.]

So that was.... different. I hope I never see Kisuke like that again...

Glad I wasn't hit by that one, but it wasn't a picnic to deal with it from the outside either.

Isshin, Byakuya-bou. Nice to see you two again.


[Private to Greed;]

You feeling up to giving any shoulder rubs anytime soon? This one's still stiff, even though Orihime fixed the wound.

Alright, so the whole "shifting into shadows" thing is pretty kickass......


but what the fuck is up with this compulsion to make these damn things?!


[ooc: OK, so her power is the ability to turn her body into shadows, and in return she is compelled to fold paper cranes. She's gonna fill the room eventually. XD]

I'm out of here. Rukia, you're on your own for a few days, kid. You know the drill. Gotta get away for a bit...



[ooc: So yeah, she's gonna wander for a bit, to work out things with Kisuke in her own way.]

Apologies to anyone who wants Kisuke for anything. He's a bit.... indisposed right now. You'll have to get your questions answered tomorrow.

Rukia, take the day off, ok? Go.... I dunno, drag Ichigo out somewhere or something. You guys should have some fun.


[ooc: Yoru-speak for "my Kisuke, not sharing today" XD. Aphrodisiac chocolate, you are my friend~]

I've never regretted the decision I made.....

.....that I left Soul Society. There were a lot of reasons for it besides Kisuke....

I regret.... that I hurt her. She looked up to me.....adored me....


And I......I cared about her, even if it wasn't necessarily the same way.

And then I left her. Abandoned her, without so much as a word.

......and even then......here..... I still couldn't be completely honest with her.


[ooc: Yup, talking about Soifon.]

Sometimes I wonder why the hell I don't just stay as a damn cat permanently....





[ooc: So yeah, she's a bit broody over her convo with Jyuu the other day, and has been making herself scarce.]
