My team and I have returned from our mission to the living world. I'll submit a report later but apparently some family business has occurred that's extremely urgent, so I'll have to cut this short--

I understand that a late training session on our division's grounds last night turned into something of a party. As your vice-captain, I'm not against forms of stress-relief, but I am against party games that result in officers' pants being left at the scene.

Whoever these belong to, you can come and claim them in the main office.

Captain Ukitake has informed me that there are some difficulties with the garganta. Since the last thing we want is to go and be unable to return, we're to stand down for the moment--but stand by, because we don't want to wait longer than we have to.

After some questioning, they ( Read more... )

A note to anyone who might be looking for me today-I am in, but I've moved to the spare office with no windows for today, and I'm keeping the lighting low, so you may not realize it's occupied. Any squad leaders who need to speak with me should look for me there.

[Filtered to friends]I'm sure you've noticed by now, but things are a bit hectic at the Thirteenth right now. (Speaking of which, Ichigo, please continue with your usual drill schedule, but as we figure out what kind of transition will need to be made, I may need your assistance.) And that's not even considering the impromptu celebration that was ( Read more... )

Yes, the snow is very pretty, but officers should remember that injuries sustained during a snowball fight are not grounds for medical dismissal of duties.

Sir, I realize we're in a precarious position, but there must be something we can do about this joke of ( Read more... )
