Jul. 29th, 2009 07:35 pm[The microphone clicks on and almost immediately you can hear Kurama sigh. When he speaks, his voice is muffled at first, as though his arm is in the way.]
Kuro lost. And he's hurt. Not as badly as he was a month ago, but... Angie-san, can you get another hop to come and examine him for me? I've already treated most of it myself, but a second opinion would be... comforting.
[There's a shuffle of fabric as he pauses, then his voice sounds wooden.]
It's down to Enki now. The sparring partner to a dead King of Makai. He's the only one standing between Mukuro and the throne. Tomorrow morning is the final round. Yuusuke is still unconscious.
Things are not looking good for us.

((I'll stop spamming soon, I swear! Canon progression's nearly over!))

Jul. 28th, 2009 09:02 pm[And another video from our fox. He's bandaging up his arm yet again and his lip appears to be... chewed on? And bleeding. His clothing appears singed and burnt in a few places and is missing half the back of his tunic. His pantslegs are torn and bloodstained, though the skin underneath is bandaged. He suddenly looks up at the camera and scowls, his lip bleeding just a little more from the action. He jerks his head to the side]
I assume you've all heard that Kuro beat me. Yomi lost to his opponent and Mukuro defeated Natsumi. Tomorrow Kuro has his battle with Enki and then whoever wins that will go onto the finals.
I pray that Mukuro will lose to one of them, whoever it is.

Jul. 27th, 2009 03:55 pm[We have a very close close up of Kurama's eyes before he steps back. He's looking quite a bit better than he did after his battle, though his arm is still bandaged and he's got a few bandaids on his face. He crosses his arms and looks sternly at the camera.]
I'm going to get this out of the way. While I'm thankful for those of you who were concerned about my well being, you really did not need to worry. I fully intended to go to the medical wing after Hiei's fight. Touya, I believe you were there when I said it.
Now, to matters that actually do matter. As you have likely heard, Hiei lost his battle to Mukuro, and Yuusuke has lost to Yomi. Yuusuke is currently unconscious in the medical wing as we speak, and has been since his loss. This puts us in a very...[He shakes his head, knowing that Yuusuke would not be pleased with him saying this] undesirable position. In fact, it makes myself and Kuronue as the only two standing between them and rulership of the Makai. Unless you count Natsumi, Enki, and some unknown, no name demon that Yomi's next battle is with. I can only hope that the next two or so days prove fortunate.
[He shakes his head again, then glances off to the side for a moment. When he glances back at the camera, he has a highly devious look on his face.] My next battle is with Kuronue. This will be quite... [He pauses expectantly, as though for dramatics' sake] interesting. We even have a bet riding on it. Cheer for me to strike first blood, everyone. [He winks, and then the screen goes black]

((And here we havea lot of bullshit identity crisis why I hate this arc an accidental video post of Kurama's fight. Replies will be ICly an hour or so after the fight all in voice, though anyone in Makai is welcome to action spam funs. ^^))
((And here we have
Yesterday were the preliminaries of the tournament. Things went about as expected, except for Chuu throwing his match for falling in love with the last combatant. So much for his drive to have a rematch with Yuusuke, I suppose.
Kuro was as well remembered and recived as I thought. Kuro-mine, just how many dropped out of the tournement when they realized they were in your bracket?
So far Touya, myself, Kuronue, Yuusuke, Suzuki, Hokushin, Yomi, Mukuro, Yomi, Shishiwakamaru, Rinku, Hiei, Raizen's former sparring partners, Jin, and I beleive Trish have made it into the tournement proper. Oh, and Shigure, though I had thought Hiei had killed him.
Yomi arrived at the tournement with his... son... in tow, who also fought in the preliminaries. I do have to say, the boy is amazingly stubbron, certainly his father's son. I think he was close to willing to die to defeat Yomi, but he thankfully surrendered when he realized he couldn't do it, not yet. He has the potiental I think, however.
The fights start again soon, with Shishiwakamaru vs Hokushin, Jin vs... one of Raizen's old friends, I forget his name at the moment. Touya, you have a fight today as well, correct?

((YYH cast: Please inform me if this isn't alright with ya'll and I'll happly make changes. Setine, is it fine for me to figure Trish made it past prelims?))

7th Rose (Voice Post)
May. 26th, 2009 12:55 pm[There's a light chuckle as the mike switches on.]
Only Yuusuke. [The sound of a squeaky chair as he sits. His voice sounds amused and somewhat fond.] Only Yuusuke would come up with something so... outlandish. An election in the Makai. Raizen is likely laughing his head off, if only for the look on Yomi's face. Fighting for the rule of the Makai...
[Locked, hackable]
[Tuts softly] Not a job I particurally want, but I'll fight to keep it from Yomi and Mukuro.
[/Locked]
Yuusuke, I trust Hokishin survived the heart attack you gave him for "vandalizing" the national treasure?
[Locked to self/Expect hackers and Kaito and Yusuke if they want only]
[Voice is no longer as fond, sounding almost tired.] It's been hell, this past month. A few days after my arrival -- which wasa fight for my life about as expected -- Yomi brought me to his holding cells.
[A deep sigh] He captured my assassin. Tortured him. Blinded him. Refused to kill him. Not until he confessed the identity of the one that hired him.
[A small touch of anger enters his voice.] He brought it on himself! They both did! Yomi for forgetting his place and the assassin for not doing his job properly! He should have died! No one challenges me like that and lives!
[An audiable inhale, as though he's trying to calm himself.] Lesson learned. Don't sleep with the underlings. They get full of themselves, start acting out and challening you for leadership and you have to kill them.
At least I was able to secure my position as Yomi's second until Yuusuke's plan went into effect.
Oh, and no one possesses my brother.
[/Locked]
((OOC: FINALLY! Canon progression time. I think I'm caught up now, if I'm not please let me know. Also, I'm at work right now, so I won't be returning tags until at least seven eastern time. Might pop in for a few minutes to answer one or two; the place is freaking dead. -_- Oh, and strikes are mutters.))
