[In theory, Sio was trying to just think this at Hijikata, but she's kind of bad at the focus thing when she's actually freaking out a bit. So. Hi everyone.]


H-Hijikata-sama... I'm in Greengard with Souji-san. Your Souji-san. A-and think we've got a problem...

Something's really really wrong with him. He's acting super weird, um, I mean, more weird than before, and scary, I mean, different-scary... we're here with Fang-san and we're in this spooky forest and I don't know why he wanted us to come here but I think there's zombie unicorns and that's kind of freaking me out.

I know he's an Infiltrator now b-but... do we... do anything?

No. Just look for Neria or me, we'll be there as fast as we can.

[With what's at stake, Garrett's going to fly to get there as fast as he can.]

[moredakka]

[Right, now look carefully, Garrett, because you are about to see the rare spectacle of Ogura Sio losing her temper.]

Why not?? What's going on? This isn't fair - I'm alone here and no one's really telling me! He's just one guy with a sword and I've got a gun! What's such a big problem?!

[blackhand]

It's not a problem if you keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't get aggravated.

[Sio's temper does little to phase him. If anything, it's made his tone sharper.]

Nothing should go wrong so long as he's fine. Keep an eye on him, Sio, and wait for us.

[moredakka]

That's not an answer!

[The stress is getting to her. It's solidifying her anger from flailing to stark and even mature.]

If you want me to be able to handle this situation, then I need all the information! Until you come I'm the one that's over here so tell me what I need to know!

[unabatedly]

Sio.

[Gentle, calm, but also commanding, Neria speaks up.]

Souji is potentially dangerous. I do not know what's upsetting him, but he is a formidable fighter when he is not an Inflitrator. If he has retained even an ounce of what he is capable of in this world, you will need to be very careful. And you will need to defend yourself.

[moredakka]

[It hits her pretty suddenly - maybe they just have no idea. Of course he's a formidable fighter, being Okita Souji and all, but the whole point is that sword fighters stop being anything when guns are involved. They haven't seen her in action. They don't know what she can do.

Something in her - something that isn't her, but is - laughs maniacally. Alright then.]

Don't worry about me, [she announces.] Whatever happens, I'll keep it contained. But get here quick.

[Because she'll be fine, but Souji... well.]
