[There is a pause before the girl that was in a dozen pieces begins to speak. Her voice is quiet, free of the normal conviction and bravado that she would normally have in such a situation.]

Tell me where I'm needed.

[She has no right to call the shots when this is half her fault.]

Yes, I'm aware of what that short little brat thinks. Even he knows how useful you are.

[For once he's not amused and is being rather blunt] No, I won't be silenced. The truth of the matter is, no one needs you to solve this. You've done enough. Someone else will figure out how to fix your mistake for you.

[She ignores the insult. Hitsugaya never bothers with what he doesn't think is worth it. And if he feels telling Sebastian to leave her alone is worth his effort, then it's worth his effort. Which means that at least one person in this city has enough faith and trust in her to mend what she's done. And that, more than the countless dismissals of 'oh, I don't blame you' and 'I know you're sorry' that she's received since revealing herself as alive, is enough to make her grit her teeth and suck it up and shove aside her pain to snap back.]

This isn't about whether or not anyone needs me to solve anything. It's about what I need to do in order to make this right.

[Tightly.]

Continue monitoring your area and keep your own people safe. I'd hate to step on your delicate toes when your garden gets incinerated because you were too busy complaining at me over the disruption to your schedule.

I can deal with you later.

[And the feed is cut. She has a witch to hunt.]
