Welcome to Gaia! ::

Junichiro opens the door slightly and pokes his head through the door as he heared the landing on the floor along with Michiko's wimper of minor pain. ''Michiko-chan, are you alright?'' Junichiro enters the office closing the door quietly behind him and offers a helping hand to Michiko up to her feet. ''Michiko, chan, I'd like to make a special request which I think would b benificial to me, the squad and in a way the rest of soul society'', Junichiro held a surprisingly cheerful expression towards Michiko.

''Well Michiko-chan you know I pride myself on many thing when it comes to combat, speed, strength and inteligence, well my proposal is this....would it be possible for me to open up a small laborator?'' Junichiro bowed in a manner closesly resembling begging as he chuckled slightly while doing so. ''You see Michiko, like Kiba has a forge which is helping everyone with his knowledge of the weapon and armour craft, I though maybe I could help the squad with my talent for inventing....Of course it would be nothing compared to what squad 12 is capable of, but this could be more exclusive to our squad at least...'' Junichiro remaind adamant in his plee and remaind firmly in place cringing slightly as he prayed to himself in his head.

Junichiro glanced up with a face filled with joy to the point his eye's were slowly filling up, ''Thank you Michiko-chan!''. Junichiro's knee's were beginning to shake along with his hands as a strong earge to give Michiko a big hug rose higher and higher but the though of him being now able to set up lab equaled his earge. ''Michiko-chan thank you so much again...'' Junichiro slowly walked to Michiko and gave her a big hug but restrained from squeesing in joy. Junichiro then gave her a large smile with a tear almost falling as his joy almost overwealed him.

Junichiro then jogged in a strange subtle rhythm to the door waving pleasently as he quietly and slowly closed the door behind him humming a cherpy random tune to himself as he made his way to where he was going to build his home away from home, and lab.

The door to the office clicked open quietly, as Michiko slipped inside, closing it immediately behind her. Leaning back against the door, she let out a sigh, before regaining her composure and walking towards her blue couch at the side of the room. Plopping down on it like a sack of dirt, she leaned back, blue eyes only half open, her exhaustion showing. Lately she hadn't had a lot of rest. Maybe just a short nap... With that though she quickly agreed with herself and reclined back, and dozed off.

At the rap on the door, her captain's eyes shot open, and she jumped up, jarring her joints a bit doing so. Her reaction was definitely all reflexes, her lack of sleep messing with her. Rubbing the side of her head, and waking up a bit more. Blinking the sleep back she realized she was making whoever was at the door wait. Straightening out her haori hastily, she looked to where her scarf had fallen, and with a moment's pause decided she'd leave it on the couch where she saw it. She hurried the door, while she called out, "One moment!"

Making it across the room in a few speedy steps, Michiko grabbed the door knob and with a click the door came open. Her hair was in messy disarray, and her face was flushed from the sudden action, she was sure that she was overall a mess to behold. At the door she came face to face with 3rd's newest recruit. Realizing that she stepped back and pulled the door wider, and said, "Oh, sorry to keep you waiting, come on in..."

As he stepped in Michiko closed the door again, not liking much when it was open, an open door being an invitation for anyone to come in with a knock. Pausing, she wondered when she'd become so cautious. Turning back to the recruit, she noted his altered outfit and his features, committing them to memory best she could. She was never one to remember faces or names to well, so she had to remind herself to learn them when she could. As he finished speaking and bowed, Michiko smiled.

"No need to thank me, you're the one who made the step to come to this squad, I just recognized it. You've got to be willing to do what you can to be part of squad's strength, and I trust that you'll try just that," She said, hands on her hips. This guy seemed uncomfortable for some reason. Nervous... was it her rank? Trying to lighten the mood, she outstretched a hand and said, "I think a more friendly introduction is in order since we'll be working together, just like the rest of the squad, I'm Tsukino Michiko." A handshake was always a good place to start, even if he had already heard her name elsewhere.

Shaking hands, she immediately committed his name to memory, hoping she wouldn't slip up with it later. Even through her gloves she could tell he was trembling as she shook his. Poor guy, he's gotta calm down. She was about to say something along those line when his slip up with his words about the squad happened. Sure, anyone could tell what he had been trying to say, it was just the way it came out... Michiko realized her face had gone red. It wasn't a second before he frantically began to correct himself in front of her, and then as that seemed to fail he resorted to apologies.

"Uh, wait, it's okay Eizo, I got what you meant," She said hurriedly, trying to put a stop to his panic mode. This guy is a bit tightly wound. "Are you feeling a bit nervous about joining a squad, pardon my saying so but I think you should work on calming down a wee bit," She said with a smile, and asked, "There's the couch over there if you want to sit or anything..."

As he confessed the real reason he was so nervous, Michiko smiled again. So that's why he's so jumpy! She felt a bit bad, remembering she herself used to be a bit more the nervous type when she was younger and a new shinigami, but never to this extent. A captain and a girl, I must be a mass intimidation to him. Brushing her hair out of her eyes as she turned to look where he was sitting, as he spoke of why he was recommended this squad. As he stood and shouted to show his determination, though the power of it short lived as he sat again, she smirked a little. "Handling the pressures of battle, well you came to the right place to prove that I guess," She said with a little sniff of a laugh at the end, in good humour. Though this was the squad first in the action, Michiko's in battle personality and out off battle one were that of almost a different persona entirely.

Caught in thought, she looked back at him abruptly at his question. Pulling the sides of her haori back a bit, she revealed the twin blades sheathed hanging at either hip, their matching royal blue and gold hilts having been concealed beforehand. "My zanpaktou goes by Takahishou."
