"Poor sleeping posture leads to back problems, a serious hinderance in the heat of battle, that is all Sotaicho!" Honestly, at some times in her life, she really could not read that enigma of a Commander. With a sigh, she pulls the seat out for her desk and sits with a semi muted thud, reaching for her glasses. "Why did you allow Hei to even tamper with those kinds of things, Tomomi?" She never expected to see a Vizard in her lifetime, those sort of things were mere flights of fancy for those few enough to even know about them. "That goes against every moral law and yet.....bah!" She sets her glasses down and leans forward on her desk, feeling her headache grow from all this strife from within her mind. "Tch, underneath all that, he's our best shot with this Telepath, ain't he?"

 Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi chuckled to himself, "Oh, how sweet of you to think of my health, Nu. I shall take that into consideration after my nap." He puts the pillow under his head and laughs to himself a little more. He stares at the ceiling when she questions his methods. Sure, the Vizard project wasn't something to be tampered with often, but it didn't always end up like it did with Hei. He sighs, "Morals are set by our elders to ensure that the young do not steer wrong. The flaw is that to learn, one must make mistakes, in turn the Elders are keeping those who come after ignorant. If we stay ignorant, then we have learned nothing. This then turns to stubbornness, and then we slowly lose all ability to learn, and then... we die."
He lifts a hand and looks it over on both sides. He softly blows on the hand, "You know, he probably is the best shot. This being did seem apprehensive of him before he left. Maybe the mix of Shinigami and Hollow power frightened him... maybe the two were never meant to mix, as they were said to never be... maybe I made a mistake, at the cost of my closest friend. Even though I may lose, the board can always be reset, and my pawns truly never die. I simply must reset my board, and begin a new game... a game that could be someone, or even my owns, last."

"Our work isn't a game where we can do that, we don't have the luxury to." Stamping the last document, she leans back, the chair leaning back to support her. "Well, I try to keep my personal feelings and the law seperate, but..." Staring into his eyes, her eyes were serious, treating him like a kid once again. "This isn't a game where you can reset, we mess up and we die, no extra lives." Getting up, she balances herself on one foot while standing on her chair, her boredom knowing little bounds. "Do yer best, and we'll follow, until I see you stray from the correct path." Hopping off, she lands on one of the mats and sits herself down again, crosslegged. "As the Division 2 Captain, if I see you ever falter, then I'll kill you in your sleep." With a lopsided smirk plastered to her face, she laughs, her statement was true, yet she treated it like a joke. "So don't ever regret your choices, that's how most idiots die anyway~"

Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi stares at his hand, "Sometimes it is better to think of situations differently, so when the time comes, you can give up the things you love and hold dear more easily..." He sits up and rubs his eyes. He looks over to her as she begins on about if he strays. He smirks as she tells him she'd kill him in his sleep. Tomomi gives her a thumbs up, "Full permission, Nibantai-Taichō." He chuckles, "According to Hei, I'm probably quite the idiot. He doesn't say it often, but in the privacy of mine and his company only -- possibly in front of his sister -- he has mentioned it." He looks back to Nu and gives her a sweet look, "Would you mind possibly getting me a bowl of ramen? I am very hungry after my near-death experience, and I'm rather tired as well. Will you, please?"

"That's how we get the job done easier anyway..." With a loud groan, not even trying to hide her displeasure at being downgraded to his personal maid, she rises slowly, setting her glasses down carefully so they do not drop. "Using a captain as a chef, really Tomomi!" With one last theatrical sigh, she walks out of the room, closing the sliding doors behind her, until she reappears twenty minutes later.
"I think you just come here because this Division is funded better..." Sighing, she hands the man a steaming bowl and wooden chopsticks, herself with a bottle of water. "Nearly die and you want food, what kind of person are you?"

Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi chuckles at her theatrics and waits for her return. As she had arrived, Tomomi would be on the floor still. In his hands were a sketchpad and pencil. He had just finished very little of his drawing, but took the ramen over finishing. He takes the chopsticks and gets a little bit of noodles, eating on them and looking to Nu. He swallows, "You know, I did not degrade you to do my cooking. I asked you, in a sweet and kind voice none-the-less, "Would you mind possibly getting me a bowl of ramen?", and you agreed to it." He eats some more noodles, "And -- as you should know -- if I want to get some energy back, eating something is one of the best ways. Sleep is as well. As for what kind of person I am..."
Tomomi eats some more noodles, "That is hard to put in to words, as I am many a thing. I am complex while having simplistic needs. I am trained, yet I dare not say I am a master at one, or any, arts. I get by with 10% luck, 20% skill, 15% concentrated power of will, five percent pleasure, 50% pain... but 100% reason to remember the name." He gives her a wink with a click of the tongue. Tomomi goes back to eating the noodles.

"Yeah yeah, I know Tomomi..." Propping herself forward, she walks to her desk, looking through nearby papers. "Most of what I see is either aloof or hungry personalities, and both are not good qualities to have, not that I'm much to say anything about that." With a groan, she waves a hand at the memory. "The cool and silent Assassination Captain losing her focus, bah!" She needed to vent, and seeing as he insisted on staying in her office, she will put him up to it.

Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi smiles and chuckles, finishing up the bowl of ramen. He stares at Nu for a while, "Ya'know, you remind me of my sister." He puts the bowl down and crosses his legs, "Well, she wasn't really my sister, but she taught me everything I knew once I came to the Seireitei. She was also serious, but there was a comedic accent to the seriousness. Sister would make good jokes, drink hearty, brawl with the toughest of guys, and treated me like a little brother. I think she had a brother in real life, probably, ya'know? She found me, and saw that I might've been just like him. I probably acted or looked like him. It could've been neither, and just took me I was the first to appeal to her." He looks down and stares at the ground. He thinks back to his first days in the Soul Society. How strange it was to come to this place.
He thinks back to his sister, "Her name was Kaiko, it meant 'Child of Forgiveness.' She believed that we should not hate the Hollows for what they did, but forgive them. She said to me once, 'The Hollows are not self-corrupted. The souls can become lost, and easily corrupted by outside forces. Those who are self-corrupted are the ones commonly sent to Hell. Do not hate them, for some are but lost souls searching for a way home.'" He smiles, "She was drunk when she said that, too.. I remember because I had to drag her home. She.. was attacked.. the following day, that is. By a group of Hollows in the World of the Living. Her and the group she was with were killed. The Second Division allowed me to leave, as strange spiritual presences were around at that same time. I came upon the scene too late, and happened to catch the Hollows as they had departed. I was able to say goodbye to her. I gave her a flower I found next to the road. The flower was from a vase of a person who died in an automobile accident, and someone put it there... it turns out the Hollows used that ghost as a distraction, promising the child its brother, mother, and father back to life if it did what they said." He looks up to Nu, "Sorry, I got to rambling on with my memories.. Can't excuse an old fart like myself for doing that, hm?"

"Well, I can't exactly yell at you after you told me all that,ne? Everyone has their own sob story right?..." She sat down on a neay pad, suddenly tired. "I am the Captain of Division 2, assasination and jailing is my specialty, where members follow the law strictly. I do not know what the previous Captains have done with the rules, but I make sure that they are followed, so I really can't relate with you on the sympathy on hollows,but...."
With a groan, she fixes a loose strand of her hair and continues. "You are my superior, which makes your rules my own, if you want to change anything, try hard...and now that Division 2 is right behind you Tomomi..." Sighing, he flops to the ground, sympathy wasn't exactly her forte. "Got it?"

Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi smiled when she couldn't yell at him. He watches her sit down and listens. He watches her groan as she must fix her hair and continues. He watches her flop back on the ground. Tomomi chuckles, "I do not intend to change the rules one bit, but offer a bit of wisdom. We must protect the Humans. Even though I was once a Human, I can say this..." He folds his arms behind his back, "We are an ignorant species. We kill out of senseless fear of being killed. We die before we are even born, and I do not speak of in the womb. Waste their lives for pleasures of the soul and body. Even in all the wrongs, they cannot just be left like cattle to a slaughter. To err is human, Nu... to forgive is divine." He slowly drops backwards and his head lands on the pillow. He closes his eyes and does a heavy sigh.

"Who would want to be perfect?" Shutting the door quietly, she decides to head for her sparring grounds to let off some steam, as well as let the man ge his well deserved rest.

Sōtaichō ~ Tomomi Iwakuro
Tomomi stares at the ceiling, "I tend to be the fool that treads where even Angels do not dare walk." He thinks back on the past years. The years seemed to go quicker and quicker. He places his hands on his stomach, "Ouhi, let's get some rest." He closes his eyes and does a heavy sigh. Tomomi smiles, "Black hoof mare, broken leg.. eye on the shotgun shell.. Age old dog, hornet nest.. in the old church bell." He would sing aloud, passing time 'til he was finally tired. He taps his stomach for a beat, "Hundred years, hundred more.. some day we may see.. a woman king.. blood shot eye... Thumb down, and starting to.. weep.." Tomomi would slowly drift off to sleep.

A Hell Butterfly floated into the room and landed on Tomomi's head, then proceeded to convey it's message in Tsukiko's voice. "Scanners have reported a rapid disappearance of Humans. Actual humans, not departed souls. No increase in hollows has been reported, not a large scale one anyway. Thought you may be interested, Tomomi. We're leaving for the Human World as I speak." The Butterfly then fluttered it's wings and flew off and out of the room.

He sighs and sits up after the message has come. He wipes his eyes, "Of course, lov'.. I'm on my way." He stretches and stands. He would open the Captain's door, remembering to close it and lock it, and disappear afterwards.
