36th step: Triumph

[favorthebold]

Hah. And I had feared that things had blown over.

Are you at last happy, you Shinigami, now that more blood's been spilled? And you men of Konoha? I suppose it doesn't matter. You've done nothing to stop this, and won't be doing anything different in the future, I wager.

And that's true for all you madmen of this city, make no mistake. None of you are safe. Take care who you look up to as your healers and guardians.

My regards to your brother, dome Izuna. Sometimes it seems a shame that we must be enemies.



This has gone well, and better than well... but it will take a subtler hand than mine, now, and one less known, to truly make the notch in doma Unohana's reputation. In case you desire the pleasure.

Shut up.

Why would most of us care one way or the other?

It's just a problem for those involved.

[Madara and Aizen went at each other, and Hinamori was the one who suffered for it. And yet again, Samaren was there to throw his mistakes in his face.

Someone had better have their eyes on him, because one shinigami in particular was not at all satisfied with how much blood had been spilled.]

They don't look very happy to me.

Oh yes, such a pity.

[Tch! If there's one thing Zuko hates, it's people making themselves happy over other's misery, especially when someone has been injured as horrifically as Hinamori apparently was.

It's something cowards do. Not real men.

It's a long moment before the prince speaks, and while he has no idea who Saul is, his tone is laced with disgust.]

Spoken like a true hero.

Why would we be happy, Saul-san ?

Why would we rejoice ?

What do you expect us to do ? What do you expect from this pointless provocation ?

[Someone has a knack for not letting things go and blow over ... and this is looking more and more staged, but Vincent doesn't know any of the people involved. He's just seen Saul around and didn't much like what he saw. Definitely watching, but not saying anything, although Saul(s PCD might show he saw the message.]

Konohagakure does not associate with Uchiha Madara and by extension, anyone involved with him. Be sure you're aware who you're accusing of spilled blood before you look to sow distrust among the civilians.

[al_truism]

Placing blame won't solve any problems. Working towards figuring out what's going on will.

[Not that he expects it from Saul.]

Intriguing. I would of course enjoy it, though I thought you wished to take down Unohana.

[mere_shopkeeper]

Unfortunately, my warnings fell on deaf ears.

[The flashes, flames and yelling behind him are a testament to that.]

Though I'm not quite sure what you mean by the comment about healers and guardians~!

You bastard!
