[Voice, since coordination is not Kuukaku's strong suit right now. Also because Szayel cut her hair and she feels really weird.]

I should set you all on fire.

What were you thinking?! Going into that bastard's turf like that? You guys could've...you guys could've gotten really hurt. You guys got things more important than me to worry about, damnit!

[Filtered to Unohana-taichou]

So when am I free to get out of here and go home?

[Filtered to the Twins.]

I'm back in Seireitei and alright, I'll be home whenever I'm allowed to leave the Fourth, and after some business is taken care of.

[Filtered to Ukitake-soutaichou]

I...need to talk to you.  I saw some things that I think you need to know about.

[Filtered to Friends, Family, and Cool People.]

So, who's interested in a pair of these...things? And this thing?

Yeah, yeah, sure, sure, I'll incinerate the thing. Just say the word, Kuukaku.

Ten four! I think you might be impressed!

Depends, can we find a big enough space in Seireitei for him to use kidou safely without taking buildings with him?

Don't you sass me.

[that other filter]
And I'll come rescue you if I damn well wanna come rescue you. I can't let that creeper just have his way with my sensei, after all; what kind'a jerk would that make me?

Re: Last Filter

[shiba-explosion.livejournal.com]

I will sass your face off if I wanna.

[Private Filter]

I'm only your sensei, but you're a goddamned captain. You got a division that needs ya more than you need me. I'm just an exiled noble that knows some kidou.

Not coming for me would've made you a smart guy. Bending backwards for that asshole is the last thing you should've done.

Fine, would it help if I said we were coming to get our fallen divisionmates? I can't speak for the others, but I was planning to go whether you were there or not. Your being there just sealed the deal.

And there's no 'only' about it. You're family to Ichigo, and he's family to me, and that makes you family by proxy. Sorry, you're stuck with me.

[Exaggerated sigh.]

Great, another birthday I gotta remember.

Fine, I can accept that you had other business with him. But...hell! You know that he used me to make you guys jump to his beck and call. Fucking ass, hate that he used me to get to you like that.

[howls-at-stars.livejournal.com]

He'll get what's coming to him. I'm planning to make sure of it. So don't sweat it; his luck will run out soon enough.

Asshole's gonna burn, one way or the other.

So how deep in the shit hole are you?

Filter

[howls-at-stars.livejournal.com]

'Bout as deep as the sewers. Cleaning them, that is. Ukitake-soutaichou's a good guy; I think the only reason he really punished us at all is cuz he was kinda obligated to. S'a tough position he's in, and so all things considered, it could'a been a lot worse.

Re: Filter

[shiba-explosion.livejournal.com]

Stupid.

The whole situation's just... fuck. So fucking stupid.

...

...goddamnit, I still can't think straight!

Filter

[howls-at-stars.livejournal.com]

Easy, Kuukaku; don't like...blow an artery or something. It's fine. I've been in way deeper shit for way smaller causes. It is stupid, but Szayel's gonna burn for his crimes one way or another, so don't worry about it, okay? Seriously. Just get back on your feet so you can watch me set that fug dress on fire.

I wanna shave him bald. Assmunch cut my hair.

FIE! One more nail in his coffin, the bastard!

Re: Filter

Hell, its above my shoulders now! Feels so fucking weird.

[howls-at-stars.livejournal.com]

Aw, lame! Well, I'm sure you'll pull it off. You're a classy dame. And it'll grow back soon enough anyway, right?

Re: Filter

I haven't had it this short since my Academy days (and no, not telling ya how long ago that was). Just because I spat on him, the bitch goes and does something like this.

I'm plenty feminine, thanks!
