I just saw a Hollow eating another Hollow!

They're not supposed to do that, are they?

Is something weird going on again? Do I need to go hide at the Shouten?

Dead serious for a change

Well, it's been known to happen, but it's escalated over the past several days. You've really gotta stay away from them when they do that. Feeding on each other makes them stronger.

[asano_san]

What do you think I'm doing? Walking right up to them to watch?

[storm-pulse.livejournal.com]

[If you could hear an eyeroll, there would be the sound of one here.]

I never said that you were. Look, the stronger they get, the less likely they are to be interested in a small fry like you, but it could still be risky if they don't sense any other food around. Better to stay as clear as possible.

[asano_san]

Don't worry. I will. If I could move to another country to stay away from them, I would.

[storm-pulse.livejournal.com]

Not like the moving would help, anyway. All the information we've got points to the conclusion that this isn't a localized phenomenon. We're trying to get a handle on the problem, but we still don't understand how all this is happening yet.

That barrier around the Shouten might be your best bet, if you're really this scared.

[asano_san]

I didn't want to have to go back to the Shouten.

[storm-pulse.livejournal.com]

All a matter of where you feel the safest. I mean, you'd rather stay alive, right?

... Exactly how big is your debt to Urahara, anyway?

[asano_san]

I do want to stay alive!

[And Keigo has a bag packed, just in case.]

I don't know. Urahara-san just smiled and waved his fan the last time I asked. I don't think I want to know.

They're eating each other?!

[asano_san]

It was so gross!

[lion-plushie.livejournal.com]

But . . . they're supposed to feed on plus souls or shinigami! Not that that's any better! Then again, I don't remember the last plus soul I saw.

[asano_san]

I'm not exactly complaining that they weren't feeding on me instead, but it was so creepy to watch! I just know something bad's happening!

[lion-plushie.livejournal.com]

How could you even watch that? I . . . Ugh! Gotta be something bad! This isn't normal!

[asano_san]

It wasn't like I tried to watch! They were just right there!

So you're worried, too?!

[lion-plushie.livejournal.com]

Of course I'm worried! They're not supposed to do this! At least not here! I thought they only ate each other in their own world!

[asano_san]

Why do strange things always have to happen around here?!

[sealed-gun-girl.livejournal.com]

[Voice post also, but boy Ururu sounds tired.]


No, they really are not supposed to do that. You'd better keep really far away from them.

It would be nice if you come visit again, though.
[And maybe if Keigo-san is able to keep that promise to himself about not complaining so much, maybe he'll get to help Ururu with her chores instead of cleaning Gigai? XD]

[asano_san]

Don't worry, Ururu-chan! I'm staying far away!

And if it doesn't get any better, I'll be visiting real soon.

[sealed-gun-girl.livejournal.com]

Okay. And, that'll be nice, if you could come and visit.

Rai-san is right, you know.

[asano_san]

About what?

[sealed-gun-girl.livejournal.com]

Oh... Um... about the chores. Jinta always complains and slacks off, so he gets the worst jobs.

[asano_san]

Why didn't anyone ever tell me this before?

[sealed-gun-girl.livejournal.com]

Umm...
'cause you're funny when you freak out?

I dunno. It never came up?

[nightmarishsong.livejournal.com]

They must be hungry!

[asano_san]

But that's not what they normally do!
