[The feed turns onto a face that may be familiar to some. Her hair is much shorter, her eyes larger and her cheeks fuller, but it’s unmistakably Yoruichi, even if she only looks about nineteen right now.]

[She looks rattled, but determined not to let her recent arrival get to her all the same. Still, her words are hurried, betraying her obvious distress.]

If there’s anyone out there from the Onmitskidou, or the Gotei 13, or Seireitei...or Rukongai, I guess, can you let know? And if you know why all these humans can see us--

[She stops and pulls in a deep breath, her face firming]

I got an explanation but it doesn’t make sense. Since when are humans even capable-- [the last is a mutter, almost to herself] So just. If this thing’s working and you have some information, it’d be a big help.

[She bites her lower lip, then reaches out to turn off the device]

[Her mouth drops open. His? What was he talking about?]

[For that matter...hers?]

I...what are you talking about? We didn't even graduate a year ago, we can't be captains for ages...

[She trails off, wringing her hands. Because as little sense as this makes, she can't deny the difference in power (not to mention appearance) she senses in the man before her.]

[He's not yet so adept at hiding his expressions that that bit of news doesn't visibly come as a complete shock to him. His eyes go wide, and he takes a step closer, going over the differences in her reiatsu and her appearance and, above all else, the discovery that she's only a year out of the academy when he knows for a fact that they graduated decades earlier. He softens his voice as he explains to the discrepancies to her.]

Yoruichi-san, I believe we may have been abducted from different time points. Our gracious hosts said that they had the ability to do that, and while I questioned their claim at the time maybe they were telling the truth. You see... we've been in the Gotei for considerably longer than a year where I'm from, and we're certainly not on the bottom of the ladder.

[He turns around to display the insignia of his new division to her, printed starkly in black strokes on his crisp white haori.]

I assumed command of the 12th Division from Hikifune-taichou last week after she was promoted to the Zero Squad.

[For all her fluster earlier, Yoruichi isn't stupid, and now that she's calmed down, is better able to absorb what she's being told. The evidence is too overwhelming to deny...especially coming from the one person she trusts more than anyone.]

[It's strange to see him in the haori, but not for the reasons one might think--she'd always known he was capable of so much more than people took him for. It's just odd that he has one and she doesn't (at least not yet); they'd shared every other major milestone in their lives, after all.]

[She steps forward, punching him lightly in the shoulder.]

Of course you did, stupid. I told you you would one day.
