HINAMORI TOKI

To call the current circumstances dire would have, in Toki's view, been an understatement. He worked around the clock to at least try and ease the burden that the people of the Soul Society were suffering right now, but admittedly, his willingness to do all of that was predicated on one simple fact:

His own home, and his mother, were still alright. As he entered the Hinamori family home, loosening his shihakusho and taking a breath to relax, Toki's expression lightened, the familiar atmosphere of home giving him at least some faint degre of peace despite the troubled times. When he spoke up, it was markedly less curt and businesslike than his usual demeanor, and he moved out of the entryway ready to actually enjoy a moment of quiet.

"Home yet, mom?"

He knew she certainly had her own life, of course, and was likely involved in her own matters in the wake of what had happened. But there was little else that gave Toki purpose quite like simply knowing that his mother was still doing alright.

MOMO HINAMORI

Life had certainly taken an unexpected turn since the attack and Momo had rather unexpectedly found herself garnering more attention then she perhaps was comfortable with. Her own role during the event had been in her own opinion small but those that she’d ended up protecting certainly didn’t feel that way. It felt lovely in a way to be respected by those around her rather than simply thought of as a hermit but she supposed she’d become…unused to it during her retirement. Still, it’d given her confidence an incredible boost and with more students coming to her for help, she found herself rather more busy than usual.

“Just about.” Momo called from the adjacent room, putting away the final few groceries that needed to be dealt with. After all of the chaos, a simple grocery trip had been just what the dark haired woman had needed to help her relax and unwind.

Heading into the living room once she’d finished, her face would brighten at the sight of her son. She knew of course that his life had been more of a rollercoaster than hers and while Momo was naturally worried about her beloved son, she would always be his biggest supporter.

Approaching Toki, she’d wrap her arms around him in a hug, asking simply. “Busy day?”

HINAMORI TOKI

It had certainly been a while since Toki'd felt anything resembling genuine relaxation, given recent events, but it was a feeling he was perfectly willing to accept as his mother gave him a hug, an embrace he was all too happy to return. Even with the greatest dangers long passed, Toki still occasionally thought about the fact that things might have happened differently. That other people certainly hadn't been quite so fortunate.

"Very. But the reconstruction efforts need someone to help clear things, and the 2nd Division's not going to staff itself, so it's necessary."

He would have liked to help with anything his mother was doing, too, but he knew that would have been irresponsible of him. She didn't need his help, after all, and that meant he'd been away from home far more than usual, spending at least some of his nights wherever they needed help rather than going back home.

"It's good to be home, at least. Are you doing okay here?"
