Sephiroth's reiatsu has vanished from Adstringnedum. He's not in the Wasteland this time.

*Those who know him will be able to notice a faint faltering in his voice telling them that he's upset, but to anyone who isn't used to it, he sounds perfectly calm.*

*Ulquiorra is trying to keep his voice as flat and melancholy as usual, but observant people who know him well should be able to tell that the question he's asking has been eating at him for a while.*

Is it possible for a Hollow to possess a heart?

...Hmph, no, asking is pointless. Either this is reality and many here know it is, or this is a delusion and you'll answer with whatever would feed into it. Either way, it's a waste of my time.

*And, just like that, the recording ends.*

*The PCD is recording from the ground, showing Ulquiorra standing perfectly still, staring at a pair of gravestones. One of them is engraved with his own name, but it's the other he's focusing on, bearing the name of Inoue Orihime. After a few seconds, his hands tense at his sides, a sign anyone who's fought him would identify as being akin to balling his fists, and the feed ends silently.*

*Ulquiorra normally goes with video so he can see the faces of the people he's talking to, but he's still too weak looking to want people to see him and text is too much work, so you get voice.*

Si- *And then he cuts off in a coughing fit that sounds like he's hacking something up. He sounds less weak than in his last post, though, more groggy than anything else. That makes sense to anyone who's been visiting him, as he's been asleep pretty much since he fought Sephiroth.* Situation?

*The PCD opens on a rare sight today, Ulquiorra collapsed on the ground with his clothes torn up and body showing burns and cuts. At first glance, the wounds don't seem too bad, but closer examination reveals that, despite the fact that hardly any blood is dripping from them, the gashes run fairly deep.

An effort to get to his feet only ends with him falling back to the ground, where he glares up at the sky and clenches a bloody fist against the ground.*

Damn...it.

*And with that unusual curse, he relaxes, trying to conserve as much energy as possible.*

(As of now, there are no plans for who will retrieve him. Feel free to reply, though he'll probably only respond if he thinks it's important and will probably be passed out by the time anyone can get there.)

*The video comes on showing a view of the roof of the Last Homely House of Rivendell and, for a while, all that can be seen and heard is empty water and the sound of something moving, until something smacks the PCD and it moves, bringing Ulquiorra into view, lying on the roof and trying without much luck to move from his spot. After a few minutes of flapping his wing-like fins and lashing his tail, he mutters something under his breath and the feed times out.*

*The PCD has come on on its own again, left on the ground somewhere in the wastes. Far above, Sephiroth is fighting Ulquiorra in his released form. Blade and energy weapon clash with visible shockwaves until Sephiroth uses the force from the blow to launch himself back and fire off a flurry of blade-like beams.

Ulquiorra beats his wings and dodges, escaping with only a cut to the leg that quickly heals, and fires a wide black beam from his fingertip. The beam is largely diffused before it hits Sephiroth, but the force is still enough to throw him into the wall of a building, which crumbles and leaves Sephiroth buried in rubble.

There's a few seconds' silence after that, as Ulquiorra slowly approaches the rubble, until a large chunk of wall flies out from it. Ulquiorra slices it cleanly in half, only to be impaled through the shoulder and base of his wing by Masamune as the feed ends.*

Your conditions?

*And that's it. He sounds tired and angry, but otherwise like himself.*

*The PCD has evidently fallen off of Ulquiorra's person, since it's recording him with the remnants of a Gillian. He wipes a small amount of blood off of his mouth as his song finishes, twitching very slightly when it restarts.*

This is ridiculous.

*With an annoyed frown, he walks over and picks up the PCD, noting the recording light without much surprise before simply cutting the feed.*

*The video comes on and briefly shows Szayel, slumped in one of the chairs in the hospital and looking...about as well as he did in his own post. This lasts for a couple seconds, before it swings back to Ulquiorra, who honestly looks more annoyed than worried.*

Szayel-Aporro Grantz has returned and is in need of medical attention in the hospital at [X;Y].

*And...that's it. He shuts the feed off without any further ado.*
