This is only getting worse. We're stuck here and now Shirayuki is barely speaking to me at all. There's more going on here that we can't see

I dunno what the hell Aizen's thinking. Even if the Arrancar don't just up and kill the Pluses and Hollows in the living world, they can't perform konso anyway, so it ain't like our "replacements" are doing such a remarkable job of replacing us. Zabimaru's been distant lately, too, which is...worrisome. I got a vicious papercut yesterday and he didn't even laugh at me. I wonder if he's sick...?

And Ichigo, I think maybe staying over there is a good idea even if the ban isn't instated from your end. Ishida and his old man and Orihime are all over there, and with the Arrancar running around they might need a hand.

I find it difficult to believe their mutual silence is a coincidence.

If this is to continue, we need to figure out the cause of this disturbance on our own. We can't just wait it out or rely on Captain Mayuri.

You're prolly right. I'm inclined to think if they were actually sick they'd...you know...say something. They're not me, for example.

Agreed; I don't like relying on Kurotsuchi in the best of situations. But what do you think we can do?

I'm on it. Coming back is not in the plan--relocating to Urahara-san's 'til this is over might be. I'm starting to feel the Manse Quincy isn't the safest spot on the block right now.

Zangetsu's... well, I guess despondent is really the only word I can use. He's never been a big talker, so I haven't noticed as great a gap as some of you, apparently, but it's definitely become worse.

It's a really freaky feeling to have to resort to the mask to fight some mid-level Hollow. I really hope this gets better, and soon.

I'll sit tight in the living world for now. I think that's best.

At least you've got that option--I'm glad you've got that line of defense open to you even if it wouldn't otherwise be the first choice.

If you do go to Urahara's to stay, keep an eye on Inoue all the same. I can't believe something this big could be planned to distract us from her when a straightforward fight would do, but that doesn't mean they won't take advantage if they can.

I'll go where Orihime goes, so... that's that. But I might talk to her about going to Sandal-Hat's, although then I'd have to bring Ishida Senior and Junior along for the ride, 'cause she's going nowhere without the Quincies.

Urahara and Ishida and his father in one place? Suddenly I'm even more frustrated that I can't get to the living world to see it.
