GLoG XXIII: With malice towards none

[Fredthefighter]

Johnny undeadtimes in the rose garden.
Note to self: Going up to your limit is only half as bad as going beyond it. he says to himself.

Vicki is sitting in the rose garden as well.
Hi.
Hello.
I'm Vicki.
It's nice to meet you Vicki. I'm Johnny.
Were you talking to yourself earlier?
Just noting something that I need to remember.
Ah, are you some sort of wizard or something?
Sorcerer. And you?
Cleric.
Nice. So what brings you to GLoG?
I thought I'd do some travelling, maybe get a bit stronger, meet new people and all that jazz.
Sounds cool.
Johnny stands up.
Well, see ya around.
He heads back to his room.
Vicki leaves the rose garden and walks into the greatroom.

[Reinholdt]

Irene smiles. Was that all? "Of course I do Scarlet. You're like the cutest little sister I could ever ask for. I mean I know you're not, but I think it works anyways." She sits up her bed a bit.

*****

Butler... is confused. He scratches his head. "Ummm... I think you might be confused ma'am. We don't allow animals to become members ma'am. Not usually anyways ma'am. Huh, maybe they changed the policy since last time I checked ma'am. One second ma'am." He goes to check the membership policies. "Well they don't mention anything about it actually ma'am..."

[horngeek]

Momo breaks in

You mean Captain Hayashi? How is he?

Vice-Captain. Where is he? We recieved a communication from him saying that he had been Hollowfied, and we sent a team.

They all just ignore Butler.

[AmberVael]

Crimson slips into Irene's room and sits down on the bed next to her.
"Like a sister?"
There sounds like there is faint disappointment in her voice. Oh, crazy pheromones.

[billtodamax]

"Actually I think they changed the policy on that." Vlad says. "I think these people must have heard of that, and are looking for their friend, who by now would have joined."

"Probably." Says Vlad in response to the person with green text. "I don't think I ever got his last name."

[Ashen Lilies]

Phoenix's thoughts: Note to self: Kill Crimson. Oh wait, I can't read Vael's posts, and besides, that would be out of character. Nevermind then.

[Reinholdt]

"You don't... yes. Like a sister." Irene blushes and looks away.

*****

Well if they're breaking into the building Butler has something to say about that!

If they're just breaking in in terms of speech, he has nothing to say about that. "I'm sorry ma'am. I haven't seen an Hayashi before ma'am. I wouldn't know what it looks like ma'am. Is there a special whistle or something you could use to call him ma'am?"

[AmberVael]

"Oh..."
Crimson looks down at her feet, biting her lip.

[Fredthefighter]

Vicki walks up to Butler.
Hello, what's going on? she asks politely.

[Reinholdt]

Cue the awkward silence time because hugging just seems... more awkward now.
....
....
*chirp chirp*

*****

Butler nods to Vicki. "Hello ma'am. These people are trying to find their pet ma'am. Have you seen a Hayashi around ma'am?"

[horngeek]

A servant drone floats up and rescues Butler from any further embarresment.

Daisuke Hayashi is currently under protective detention after an incident.

Unohana's eyes narrow at this. Then we will go and see him. He should not be there. These men will repair the damage and analyse the area.

The nondescript Shinigami move around the Greathall with various instruments.

[Fredthefighter]

I only got here yesterday sir. You don't have to call me ma'am though. What's your name? she says politely.
She smiles.

[AmberVael]

Crimson glances at Irene, then gets up and goes to leave the room unless stopped.

[Ashen Lilies]

A more different service drone floats up to the original service drone and points out the service drones speak in "Dark Orange using the Fixedsys Font" and that the obviously malfunctioning drone should go and decommission itself before it brings further shame to their kind.

[Reinholdt]

Irene lifts a hand, but it puts it back down. "Scarlet... good night Scarlet."

*****

I can assure you embarrassing Butler is incredibly difficult.

You could just... you know. Explain that it's not a pet but a person's name. Alas, these Shinigami think they own the place.

Butler does however go into a rather rare frenzy. He despises the drones already. How dare they try to take away his job? The servant drone gets bashed, trashed, and mutilated by angry Butler. Who then proceeds to clean up.

I'm pretty sure destruction of private property is a jailable offense mister! Of course he belongs in there. Of course... Butler does too now. But he's more than happy to pay for his crime with jail time so long as there is one less drone in the world stealing his spotlight.

They both deadtime.

[AmberVael]

"Good night."
Say Crimson before she whisks off to her room to go to sleep.

[Fredthefighter]

This place gets stranger by the minute. Simply wonderful.
She looks around for someone else to talk to.

[billtodamax]

"That's odd. He isn't usually in the jail." Vlad says. "Maybe he's doing some soul-y things in there." He'll lead the various peoples to the jail with a "This way."

[horngeek]

They all go to the detention area, where Daisuke is currently scanning himself with an energy sensor.

Captain Unohana. Vice-Captain Hinamori. Kurosaki. Vlad. Hello.

Unohana takes the energy sensor and starts scanning with it.

What happened, Captain Hayashi?

Well, a group of zombies attacked GLoG and one of them appeared to be able to degrade souls or somthing. It attacked me and he shrugs that caused me to be Hollowfied. Said inner hollow then proceeded to kill the zombies, but blasted some holes in the wall while doing so. I then managed to get control back.

[AmberVael]

Vael has no idea what the sensor device does, and thus can't say what it finds out; if indeed it is supposed to find something out about the energy from the zombie.

[horngeek]

It just analyzes spirit energy. The ones being used in the Great Hall probably find out at least that the zombies were not self animated.

The one in the detention area will also inform that Daisuke has, in fact, become a Vizard.

[AmberVael]

"Analyzes spirit energy."
Well that's vague.

Considering Crimson's setting, that probably best translates over to analyzing souls, exaltation, and essence. As the soul of the zombie is now gone, it certainly wasn't exalted, and essence really isn't particular to the user, it probably won't tell them much of anything.
Especially since there's probably none of it remaining on Daisuke- at least, none pertaining to the creation of the zombie. What it will say is that there was a concentration of abyssal essence used against him. But that's about it.

Meanwhile, the unseen ones in the great hall will detect that the zombies were- hey, who would have guessed- animated by abyssal essence. In fact, it was probably their own essence, tainted and then used to bring them back. So not much to really take from it.

[horngeek]

{{what is Crimson's setting?}}

[AmberVael]

((Exalted. Magical power is drawn from Creation- a person doesn't really have or make their own essence, they just have a capacity to draw on it more or less than other people.
The only difference I know of that they'd be able to detect would be the type of essence it is- or rather, what type of manse/demense/source it comes from. In this case, abyssal.))

[horngeek]

{{Thought so. Waiting for Vlad}}

[billtodamax]

"Hey Daise." Vlad says, then promptly tunes out to all of the soul-y bits of what Daise is saying. He catches the zombie bit.
"So that's what that horrible stench was. I'll remember that for next time." Vlad says.
((switched computers, the other one was having a hissy fit.))

[horngeek]

{{I know the feeling}}

So the upshot is that the security drones think I'm a danger. Which is why I'm here.

At this, Ichigo breaks in And they're wrong. The Inner Hollow only comes out when you're under extreme stress, like if you're needing to use Bankai. Just fighting doesn't do it.

Unohana turns to the security drones. As somone who has experience with this sort of condition, I am willing to testify that Captain Hayashi is no danger, and request that you release him into my care.

And Ichigo says And as somone who has mastered this condition, I will testify to this as well.

[Ashen Lilies]

The Sec-I drone tasked with guarding Daisuke turns to Vlad questioningly. He's the member.

[billtodamax]

Vlad looks around to see if anyone else is there. Woah! Where did all of those people that look like Daise come from? He whispers to the drone.
"I have no idea what they're talking about."
((deadtime for maths.))
