video; un: TIGER-STRIPED, LOCKED TO SHUTEN CLAN

[ The shot is Toraguma's desk. His sunglasses are on, so his expression is difficult to read, but the way he puffs on his cigar... kind of suggests what's going on.

On the desk in front of him is the remains of some sort of device, likely recovered from the explosion. Jiro is there as well, obviously having done his best to piece it back together and identify what it was, but it seems a conclusion has been reached... ]


The fox... She's a clever bitch, as always. She thought she could throw me off by having a mechanical bomb instead of a mystic one...

[ Toraguma gestured to Jiro, who nervously stepped forward and set down what appeared to be a ruptured container of some kind. ]

"B-but, well... she works with what she has, and it seems they used a combustion relic to cause the actual ignition. But it was tampered with. The seal on it shortened the fuse time, so..."

[ Toraguma cut him off, leaning forward ]

The fox has a spy in her house. So for now... I'm gonna let her put out her own damn fires and get my payback on this later. I don't want any of you losing track of what's ahead of us.

[ Jiro visibly swallows, stepping back and ducking his head, because he knows what's coming next. ]

"Iron Bear" is Kaneguma... my kyoudai... That means no matter what money is on the line, no matter who that Ringo girl is, it's our responsibility as the Shuten Clan to go out there and stop him. No matter what, we take care of him first... I'll deal with the fox bitch after that.

Listen up!

We've got a primary vehicle, but anyone that can ride, you're with us. We head out in two weeks. You have that much time to get ready. If you need to stay behind... so be it. But we're taking this war to Kaneguma.

[ Toraguma leaned back in his chair, once more and just... let out a heavy sigh. ]

And I'll deal with him myself. No one else touches him. Got it?

[ it takes a little longer to reply. Texting, man. ]

Iron Bear sent a group to the flowershop I work at to kill us and take our employer, though we were able to resist. The last man standing set himself and the others on fire to burn the shop to the ground.

Miss Aerith's flower shop?

[ If he was a swearing kind of guy... ]

I don't know what to
I had no idea. Are you alright? Did everyone else get out okay?
Are you staying somewhere safe?

Hey. Cool head, alright? Don't do anything reckless.

[ All questions about Haru aside, he's known and worked with Minato enough at this point to notice The Signs. ]

[ He types, deletes, and retypes multiple responses to this. ]

Okumura's a teenager. There's so many younger Lost Souls than her, now, as well. Why are kids getting caught into this?

Human concepts of age don't mean much to youkai, one assumes.

But even so, temper that anger. Focus it. Make it a flame that burns hot, not broadly.


[ And despite what he said earlier... ] But let it burn.

This app needs an upvote button.

[Because just typing "this" is cringe, apparently.]

Kids don't have any business out there.

We're okay. We were either able to evacuate on our own or had help.
Everyone was treated at the clinic; injuries couldn't be avoided, unfortunately.
I went back to my apartment as soon as the clinic released me. I believe that's safe enough?

That's
That's good to hear. You're in good hands at the clinic.
If Iron Bear is targetting specific people, and addresses... I only worry he'd try again. Do you have anyone who can check on you?
