She watched the hollow-monster Hidane as it seemed to prepare another assault. She held her sword ready, not certain what to expect, when she detected the mod soul descending from on high. It took a moment for her to feel confident that he wasn't coming after her; as she readied herself to strike Thanatos. However it was soon apparent that it wasn't necessary. The mod soul had done something to the hollow and she could see and hear it grotesquely fracturing and breaking. Had he killed Hidane? She wasn't sure how she felt about that, but as she saw the tree growing she could feel the hollow reiatsu dying, and it seemed that Hidane was still alive, simply in the huge tree that was growing right in the middle of the street. Well damn, this'd be a big job for the memory modifying squad...
She watched Seran now, curious as to what was to happen. She'd been prepared to watch them go at each other but not at the expense of the city. So now Hidane was officially out for the count... Would he go after her? She didn't drop her guard for even a fraction of a moment. She sidled slightly around the tree to get a view of Seran. If he'd gone to the effort of capturing the vizard maybe he wanted Hidane alive, and she'd have to fight him for custody of the body... On the other hand she could just leave him to it. This was strictly the job of the Gotei 13 to monitor and look after, it wouldn't necessarily be a dereliction of duty. Especially not if Seran didn't try and assault her.
"What's your name, modsoul?" she asked, so that at least she could find out more later. "And what was that?" she used an authoritative voice as she possessed, unsure whether he'd listen or just ignore her.

“A foolish question. Why would I tell you my name when the only outcome is additional danger to myself.”
The shinigami didn’t seem to be itching for a fight, so Seran returned his attention to the tree in front of him. He extended both hands towards it, then clenched as though trying to compress an invisible object between his palms. The tree shook and creaked, as though a powerful wind was threatening to topple it, then it began to change. It started a near the top, leaves began to vanish, shrinking back into the branches they had spouted from, twigs flowed back into the splits they had spawned from. The tree was un-growing from the top down, and a moment later the roots also began to recede, till all that remained was the pillar of the trunk. The mod soul’s hand movements changed, they began turning in a circle, like he was running them over a rounded object. The wood responded with more creaks, and the top and bottom began to bend, flowing around and around as the tree completed its transformation to a large orb of solid, dark wood.
“I don’t know what that was. But I have many theories. Theories that need to be tested.”
He released the energy from his hands, and the mass of wood set down on the concrete with the deep crunching of broken asphalt. Seran glanced over at the shinigami, trying to read her expression. Best he could tell she was sizing him up, and he could easily guess why.
“I can’t let you take him shinigami. The only thing that awaits someone like him in the Seireitei is a quick and efficient execution. He’s not like other vizards you’ve met, he chose this power for himself, and it seems he’s pushed it even further.”
He frowned, eye’s falling on the still drawn sword in the woman’s hands.
“I can help him…. maybe. But even if whatever he’s done to his soul is permanent, and when I remove him from this prison he’s nothing but a deformed beast with no sense of reason, I won’t turn him over to be experimented on by you people. He was my friend once and I’ll give him the quick death he deserves if it comes to that.”

"Well you have a point." Blodeuwen wasn't here to do anything more than sew up the hole that those hollow would likely have come from. There had been so damned many. If Seran left with the body, she would likely be free to close it up without having to worry about being messed with. "I asked your name for nothing more than personal curiosity. I don't know the identity of any of you survivors. It's not my job to clean up after you." she said airily, sheathing Cariad and feeling the sword relax the pent up tension it had been gathering. There were no more hollows; the perfect opportunity to close up that hole and she itched to get to it before anyone else got hollowfied.
"So no opposition from me. Take him. If the Gotei 13 aren't capable of dealing with their messes it isn't my problem." she said, a little more harshly than she had originally intended. The recent drama involving Aoi Sora and Rokubantai Taicho as well as that first division soldier the Kido Corps were trying to recuit had left a somewhat bitter taste in her mouth and her faith in the Gotei 13's competence had taken a hit. "But if I find that thing running lose, I will take this personally; I will kill him and then you, if he hasn't managed it already." She said coldly, in stark contrast to her usual sunny, happy-go-lucky demeanor.
She waited to see if he would leave, still curious to find out who he was but presumably she'd have little trouble doing that with a search when she was back in the Seireitei. She was still slightly on edge, weary of assault.
