Ah, so they're using the water as their reflective surface...

[And they gained a taste for toying with Majima in the place where he was before, then either the massive cursed energy of the blood rain enabled them to cross the border into Jigokucho or else similar ayakashi took advantage of the vulnerability. As far as Natori's concerned, there isn't much difference whether they were ultimately manifestations of the blood rain or ayakashi who would be in the city normally-- they're dealt with the same either way.]

If they're that fast, the best thing to do would be to carry around protective wards to try to fend them off if they appear again rather than trying to seal or exorcise them. I could provide you with some shikigami that could work in a pinch, but [he waffles over this next bit for a few minutes, both for selfish reasons and not, before deciding that his first duty as an exorcist is to give the best advice he can.] my wards aren't functioning anywhere near where they should be. I can refer you to another exorcist for that.

[(He's switched to using 'watashi' for 'I' instead of 'ore'; old habit of being polite when doing proper exorcist work.) After a moment, he follows up with another text:]

There may be some complications with Chijoku if you go to the person I'm thinking of, however.

Can't hide I got him or nothin'. But I got plenty'va cash if that smooths things over?

It's more that you should be prepared for... [Hmm. How to summarize.] You dealt with onmyouji in that Hakagemachi of yours, right? Matoba-san is a powerful exorcist, but even among other spellcasters he's known for his hatred of ayakashi. He should still help you, but he's going to look down on the two of you for your partnership.

[He might not normally be that blunt about it, but considering that Majima said he was dealing with ungaikyou... He attaches a contact card anyway.]

If you'd rather not deal with him, I can still offer my services. But he's in a better position to offer what you'll need than I am.

[ Tch, those assholes... Well. Fine. ]

Give it a try. Thanks.

[paperpusher]

Let me know if it doesn't work out. I'll get you what I can in that case. [And also yell at the boyfriend for being an asshole.]
