[Rei's expression is calm.]

Does anyone here have any experience in building machines?

[Relationship problems? Rei doesn't have those. So don't ask.]

Connections, Toushirou.

If you come over in a few hours, we can test them.

[Twitch. Stupid Hino and her stupid connections.]

I will then. I'll ask Sasuke and Hinamori if they want to come as well.

[Extra effort not to exclude those two, yes.]

[Her stupid connections got you stupid robots.]

Sounds good to me.

[As long as she keeps the handwritten instruction manual to herself, no one will know.

Except Rei is a terrible liar and it won't take much to figure out who managed to make robots in, like, four hours, but whatever, it's fine, don't worry about it.]

[Stupid Szayel robots.]

Ah.

[It's not like Szayel's message was private or anything.]

[Still robots.

She should know better than to hope that he won't go and check. Hrgnh.]

They'll work, Toushirou.

[A very gentle reminder that he can't afford to be picky if he wants to be able to take control of this city back again. Allies are allies, and while he may not like her own, Rei will call upon her allies to the best of her ability.]

I'm sure they will.

[Grudge. Grudge. Grudge. Grudge.]

Then it's fine.

[C'mon, she promised she would watch her back around Szayel and she has. But she's not going to turn down a chance like this when everything could hinge on another invasion.]

You'll be here when we test them.

[She can at least give him the satisfaction of being there to go 'I TOLD YOU SO' in case they explode or something.]

[In all honesty, he's not even really worried that something will go wrong. Sure, they might not work; that's always a possibility. But he doubts Szayel would purposely try to harm Hino in this way. After that cursed event, he doubts Szayel would try to harm Hino at all. He doesn't want to accept it though. Because of who he is, because of what he says, because of everything he does.

It's not fine. Not even close. But he can't argue against it. And that's part of the reason it's not fine.]

...

I'll be there in a few hours.
