Contact With Contact [Yuri, Momo]
Wed Oct 30, 2024 8:09 am
God dammit.
FUCK FUCK FUCK!
The frustration practically riddled Yuri's frame as she strode through the streets of the rukongai. As fulfilling as it had been working with the injured in Soul Society, she was still peeved. Barely watching where she was going as she kept a brisk pace, a sigh escaping her as she attempted to get her temper under control. This whole goddamn situation was a mess! Getting to show off her Zanpaku'to's healing properties had been a bandaid to the greater problems going on!
Those GODDAMN Brutes! Criminals, RYOKA! Trashing soul society, and now she was out of the goddamn JOB! Why couldn't she have been stuck on EARTH?! Why did she have to be stuck HERE, with those fucking IDIOTS?! It was all mess. Central 46's power grab with Byakuya Kuchiki. The loss of her job as the Gotei was disbanded. The fucking RELIEF efforts by the head of her family Lady Aiban! That old coot was TOO DAMN NICE! She'd had the family's resources pumping into the Rukongai, and all the contacts were being used to keep an eye on ...what, a bunch of THUGS in the Rukongai? She didn't understand that old bat sometimes, that BITCH!
She huffed and stopped in her tracks as she closed her eyes and took a few cleansing breaths, a few.... thoughts and memories sneaking into her mind in that moment, and that anger gave way to tension and anxiety before she got herself under control. Right... she just... needed to figure out what to do here. She slowly opened her eyes and looked around.
Wait... where the fuck was she?
She furrowed her brows slightly and realized that she'd wandered well out of her usual routes. She actually had no idea where she was. Area....... Thirty? No it was further than that. She was almost immediately on her guard, if she'd wandered into the forites, she'd need to keep her wits about her. "Great Job Yuri.." She murmured sarcastically to herself.

MOMO HINAMORI
It wasn’t the most pleasant district and even Momo was unable to keep the slight concern from showing on her face. Everything had changed since the invasion and the Ex Lieutenant had found herself spending more time teaching than ever now, not to mention healing her own fair share of injured people who came to her home seeking aid. She wasn’t exactly upset but it had severely tested her newly rediscovered confidence, enough that there had been moments where she’d wondered if she could handle the stress. Fortunately, she had and the dark haired woman had found herself in a surprisingly good place mentally.
The Rukongai was more unpredictable than ever though and Momo had already come across a rather unpleasant individual or two while travelling throughout the districts. Nothing that she could not handle but enough for her to see first hand as to what was occurring. If it was rough in the middle districts, she had no idea what it must have been in the outer ones but that wasn’t her issue for today.
Much to her surprise, she’d soon enough come across a familiar figure, a woman she’d met before, which did bring a smile somewhat to Momo’s face as she approached.
“Yuri? What in Rukongai are you doing here?” She asked cheerfully.

Yuri frankly had been about to just start walking until she reached a landmark, she was too pissed to really try retracing her steps. But it was in that moment that she heard that familiar voice and she turned to spot the cute little Shinigami Veteran that she'd met some time ago. Her brows raising in surprise before she offered her own relived smile.
"Oh thank goodness its just you, I've had such a day... you wouldn't believe." She chuckled tiredly, promptly making her way over to Momo and offering a nod, looking the smaller woman up and down thoughtfully. Huh, she didn't seem roughed up or anything. Good. These damn streets were getting worse and worse, but thankfully not that bad yet. "I got a little turned around and well. I've had a lot on my mind, I didn't even realize I'd wandered off until just now." She sighed and rubbed her eyelids, shaking her head before lowering her hand and looking to Hinamori.
"How've you been? You didn't get hurt during the attack did you?" She looked over momo curiously, before folding her arms, clearly watiing for more information from Momo. It was bad enough she'd lost so much already, it'd suck if Hinamori had lost anything, or if her house had been damaged or something. That she wouldn't abide.

MOMO HINAMORI
“I ended up having to turn my place into a refuge for some of the locals in the end.” Momo answered with a rather neutral expression. “Luckily I was able to create a powerful enough barrier to defend them all but it was a little touch and go for a bit. I must admit that it brought back some memories of the past, fighting Arrancar and all but I suppose on the bright side, if there is one, I was able to shake off some of the rust. Been a long time since I used my skills for anything other than teaching.”
It wasn’t too difficult for Momo to notice the tiredness on Yuri’s face and the dark haired woman soon enough found herself asking, looking a little concerned. “Are you OK? You look as though you could use an early night or two.” Momo certainly had enough experience with bad nights to know how rough they could be. “I take it that things have been rough for you since the attack?”

Yuri chuckled softly at that, her brows raising slightly as she had to admit she was a little impressed, the mental image of this cute little thing staving off hollows was certainly an entertaining one, ah, she wish she could have seen that. "Uh, it's been rough. Spent a good several days just working on healing the wounded. And uh, then once all the critically wounded were done with, we headed out here to the rukongai to help. Its ... a lot of travelling between the different districts." She murmured. Certainly, the widespreadedness of the destruction was a lot to handle. Every place she want to seemed to have dozens if not a hundred or more people who needed care.
"It's not so bad, most places we get to now have things under control. Maw says Ill have to rest the next couple days, but well...I had to check up on some people back in the sereitei...well..the ones that havent' dispersed." She murmured tiredly, rubbing at her eyes.
"Ugh... and travel to the world of the living is fucked. I hear they have an arrancar and a Vizard down on earth, still retreiving people. Not heard much of it though." EHr jaw tightened ever so slightly at the mention of earth. Tch, to think she joined eighth to get a chance to see it, but that wasn't happening now. Just one of many selfish little greivances in her heart.
"Uh... what about you? You checked up on everyone? you had a few students right?"

MOMO HINAMORI
It certainly sounded like a nightmare to deal with and Momo had to admit that there were moments where she’d considered trying to take a more active role since the invasion had taken place. Everything seemed to be changing and after her return to active combat, the petite Shinigami couldn’t help but feel the old vigour stir within her again. It was a feeling that she’d not experienced for an incredibly long time but one that she certainly appreciated. Perhaps there was a new role in her future, one that was more than just a Kido teacher in the Rukongai.
“You’d best find some time to focus on your own well being.” Momo replied kindly. “You’re not going to be able to help anyone else if you end up running out of energy. I think your mother is on to something there. You’ve done plenty already.”
A smile would cross Momo’s face when her students were mentioned, causing her to chuckle. “Literally the day after the invasion, I had a student of mine named Ranma banging on my door wanting another lesson. He seemed to have handled himself well during the fight and I confess that his Kido skills have rapidly increased. I’ve yet to speak to my other students but as far as I know, they are doing well for themselves. I plan on taking some more on too when I can, as I believe now more than ever folks should be focusing on their training.”

Yuri paused for just a moment as Momo spoke up, and she couldn't help the little smirk that formed on her lips, putting a hand on her hip and shaking her head as she let out a little sigh. "You... make a fair point. I suppose having to go around making sure the idiots around me don't work themselves to death has kinda bit me in the ass..." She rubbed the side of her face. UGh, how many days had it been since shed had a full eight hours.
She paused for a moment when the woman mentioned thier students, and she paused to think about that name. She knew them, they were in the Eigth division. Tch, he'd not made a very good impression when they first met. Huh, so Momo had taken him on as a student? She went quiet for a moment as she considered Hinamori's words. "Hm, I might have to reach out and track down some of my students to make sure they're alright..." her voice trailed a little. A few of them... she DID worry about.
"you should be careful though. With the Gotei dissolving, I hear a few groups are trying to start things back up. I don't imagine it'll be much before they reach out to people with talent like yourself." she noted softly, folding her arms as she furrowed her arms over her chest. A rare hint of genuine concern in her voice. After all, now that they had lost so many, they were going to be fiending for talent. Not that it might not be a good opportunity, but even so. Times like these... people made all kinds of promises. And sometimes ones they weren't inclined to keep. Last thing she needed was for one of her few friends to get scooped up by such a group and then screwed over. Especially knowing how Toki would react to such a thing.

MOMO HINAMORI
The Ex Lieutenant mused that perhaps she’d come along a little strong in terms of encouraging Yuri to relax a little. It wasn’t intentional of course, she’d simply become fond of the woman and worried about her well being. Smiling again, she’d simply reply to Yuri’s comment. “A little TLC would do you the world of good, I’m sure of it.” Honestly, Momo wasn’t surprised as to just how ragged Yuri had run herself though. She remembered just how spirited Yuri was from their first encounter.
“A sound idea in my opinion.” She answered, agreeing with Yuri’s idea about her students. “While I’m sure you’ve trained them well, a little check up wouldn’t hurt. It’s been an absolute mess at times trying to make much of anything since the attack. News coming from all corners and half of it contradicting itself.” At times it’d left Momo in a bit of a headspin but she’d done what she could to keep herself and her family safe.
Her smile faded a touch as Yuri spoke about what could happen next with the Gotei dissolving, nodding. “I’ve heard the odd rumour myself about Shinigami trying to pick up the pieces and I probably didn’t do myself any favours by fighting but it had to be done. I’ve not had anyone approach me just yet and even if they do, I’m not certain as to what my move would be. I can promise you though that I won’t be pushed into anything. If I decide to join any group, it’ll be because it’s best for my family, no other reason.”

Yuri nodded softly and sighed, rubbing the back of her neck as she considered the advice. "Hm, fair enough. And I can only bet news is going to be out of whack for a while. Ughhh, sometimes I wish I'd been stuck on earth when this all went down." She sighed, closing her eyes and rubbing at her eyelids, shaking her head just a little. "I can only bet what the hells happening at africa with no relif going on. No less the bastards down there that only behave because the gotei's watching them." She murmured with furrowed brows, rubbing the back of her neck as she thought about the whole situation.
She paused, and then looked back to Hinamori and sighed. Well, it wasn't all bad. She at least had her friends and associates. Few as they were these days.
"Well lucky you. I don't imagine I'll be getting any such call." She murmured quietly. For all that she actually worked for she ... well she was a fair bit above the average shinigami. But she was just the kinda girl who focused on her work. And well...she wasn't going to lie to herself and say she left the best impressions sometimes. Sadly, the stronger shinigami tended to be able to ... sniff her out.
She sighed.
"Hows tokiu doing bye the way? He isn't pushing himself too hard is he?" She asked with a stern look on her face. She didn't know for sure, but that little buttface pushing himself too far for his mom definitely seemed within the realm of possibility.

MOMO HINAMORI
A sigh escaped Momo as she listened to Yuri speak about the human world. It was all too easy to imagine what could become of it now that the Gotei was gone. Would those already there be able to handle things? She couldn’t for sure and with her rather limited knowledge on the situation there, the dark haired woman could only muse to herself about it. “I suppose all we can do is have faith that there’s enough strength down there to protect those in need.” She replied evenly.
A slight frown crossed her features as Yuri played down her own abilities, drawing out a more encouraging opinion from the petite woman, placing a comforting hand on Yuri’s shoulder. “Nonsense. If they contact me then they’re bound to contact you. They will need every capable individual right now you must definitely qualify. Someone is going to need to get things done and there’s no one better at that than you are.”
As the topic changed to focus on her son, Momo’s frown would become a small smile. “He’s doing a lot of work with what’s left of the 2nd at the moment. I know that he doesn’t want to worry me but I can tell that he’s definitely pushing himself quite hard. He’s doing everything he can.”
