Turushino couldn't help but observe Hikari's visceral reaction to the aftermath of their hard-fought battle. Her body convulsed as she leaned against the alleyway wall, clearly struggling with the nauseating effects of the Hollow's vile ichor. The green ooze had splattered them both during the intense combat, and its stench was a sensory assault that even the most seasoned warriors would find hard to stomach. Hikari's words reverberated through the narrow space, a raw and unfiltered expression of her revulsion, tinged with the lingering adrenaline of battle.
Taking a moment to sheathe his Zanpakutō, the blade slid into its scabbard with a satisfying click, a sound that signaled the end of one battle and the quiet anticipation of those yet to come. "You've proven yourself to be a formidable fighter," he continued, locking eyes with Hikari for a moment that felt both brief and eternal. "I am glad I was on your side this time around, wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of your powers any time soon!"

His gaze then shifted downward, taking in the state of his own attire, which was similarly marred by the Hollow's repugnant fluids. "We both could use a thorough cleansing, both physical and spiritual, I think...how you go about that is up to you" he mused, almost to himself. "The bloody monsters did pack quite the punch, but it was an exciting fight I will give them that! Nothing wrong with a bit of a challenge every now and again I think."
Finally, he looked back up, focusing on the fullbringer once more. "You are good to go? The night is still young, and my duties are far from over but I would hate to just leave you out here if ya need help getting somewhere. There are more battles to be fought, more dances to be danced and what not." He would try to clean his attire to the best of his ability "Hopefully, with each encounter, like this we can learn how to get better at...making less of a mess"
