"All the same, Captain Ukitake needs to know about this. Delicate health or not." Renji does feel ever so slightly bad about that, for the briefest of moments. Ukitake's been at this a long time though. He'll deal with it. "Having her Captain informed and involved would probably help."

Yanagi's slowly turning colors again. Renji shifts awkwardly. Even off-duty, he's still a lieutenant, he supposes. Even if now is not one of the times he'd like to make people uncomfortable with that particular rank.

"Is it true they actually sent you and Captain Kuchiki to apprehend her?" Akiyama pipes up after a very long moment, and Renji's honestly glad for it. He guesses Yanagi will likely be, too.

Renji finds himself struggling not to shrug. "Yeah. Who else would they have sent?"
