【Raine almost spat out his drink, forcing his lips together. He broke out into a breif coughing fit before finally regathering his bearings. Court my captain!? The very thought made Raine almost turn red. His cheeks flourished with a light shade of pink as he massaged his aching throat.
"Oh no- I couldn't possibly dream of stealing my Captain's heart away from her dearly beloved Toushiro Hitsugaya." He said with a chuckle. His voice was bright and teasing, almost like he was humming a lovely tune. He had teased his Captain about their rumored relationship ever since he first thought of the idea. Ever since that day, he had never let Ruka get through a day where he hadn't mentioned it. This was his golden opportunity for the day. He half-expected her to come flying across the room in an aggressive air-kick, but hopefully her positive demeanor would diffuse that urge. "But I am glad to hear that you will be attending the party." He finished off with a bright grin.
Raine was beyond curious. The manner in which this man conducted himself fascinated Raine. How could one be so blunt while still maintaining polite presentation. Perhaps the Captain would take kindly to Raine's pranks... perhaps... Raine could even ask him to help with making equipment for his pranks. There were too many pros and cons balancing on the scale within Raine's head. Would this man be an ally or a rival. Perhaps neutral? That seemed to be the most reasonable response. Raine stroked his chin-stubble absentmindedly as he looked over towards the door.
"I'll be joining you two, if you do not mind. Seeing as my doppleganger has gotten the hang of the paperwork-" Raine had no idea how it was possible but he dared not question his replica's abilities "-I have nothing on my schedule to prevent me from watching my Captain's techniques. It's been awhile since we've last trained, and even longer since I've actually watched from the other side. It will be a good learning experience on my part." Let your colors burn and brightly burst ༄
Into a million sparks that all disperse
And illuminate a world that will try to bring you down

 We're coming up on our deadline, everyone! Ruka Kusabana
Captain of Squad 9
Court her? Ruka paused in the middle of tying Suzaku's sheath to her sash in order to clap a hand over her mouth. She, too, was turning red. Not out of embarrassment like Raine, but in order to prevent the muffled laughter from spilling beyond her lips. She forced it down to a light shake of the shoulders green eyes twinkling with silent merriment. That was too funny- and the reaction way too priceless. If she had a camera-
Pause. Rewind. Eyebrow twitch.
There was about a millisecond between the words Raine had just uttered and her reaction. Then with a speed that just might have made Soifon green with envy she snatched up the copy of Japanese Folklore sitting on the edge of her desk and promptly hurled it at Raine's face. The book flew through the air in a graceful arc before it connected with startling accuracy knocking her Lieutenant back from the sheer force of the blow. The brunette huffed fingers deftly finishing the knot on Suzaku's drawstring before she exploded.
"Quit making that stupid joke! We're acquaintances! Acquaintances! We sparred once and so what if we both got colds?! It means nothing! We liked to talk what's so wrong about that?! With you and Rangiku always playing stupid tricks- Just because we're short doesn't mean-!"
And on the rant continued out the door and down the walkway complete with gesturing and just an overall steaming mad Ruka. Shinigami of their squad who heard her fury from afar immediately sighed, shook their heads, and adjusted their paths to avoid that of their angry Captain. While they knew she wouldn't hurt them the increase in temperature in the air around her was more than enough to ward them off. At some point it became apparent to the two remaining in the office that the Squad Nine training grounds had been mentioned somewhere in the middle of her tangent before she'd stormed off.
Don't give me those looks! We can finish this! [Exeunt]

Nyhil Dakkar
- - Captain of Squad Twelve - - Nyhil watched Raine's behavior with more regard than a moment before, curiously taking in his awkward behavior to the question. It had been simple enough as far as the twelfth squad captain was concerned. Nearly choking over a simple query wasn't something Nyhil witnessed with any frequency so it only furthered his inquiring mind. Though once his lungs had settled after the mishap the boy seemed quick enough to explain his intentions toward Ruka. Crimson eyes flickered between the pair, the slight laugh and the tone that accompanied the following statement made it's credibility questionable.
“I endeavor to be present at any social event where my presence is requested. Such invitations are notably rare.” Nyhil remarked, perhaps not understanding why he wasn't invited out more often? He was curious as to this remark of a 'crush' on Ruka's sake but he didn't speak of it. He'd only read through the file of this Hitsugaya once and he didn't know enough details to make any judgment. Nyhil preferred to meet people in person before deciding anything as to his feelings about an individual.
“If your captain has no issue then I do not object to your observations, that is the best manner in which to learn.” Nyhil nodded vaguely; as if approving Raine's desire to watch them. “Your Gigai is well programmed, I don't believe it was one I worked on. I'm always trying to refine my skill in that area...I wouldn't mind taking a look at him sometime.”
Of course, then the text met with Raine's face with an enviable accuracy. Nyhil glanced between the pair again and remarked. “I'll assume then that, despite apparent rumors I have previously been unaware of you are presently not courted? How surprising for such a lovely and capable young woman.”
Nyhil was concidering as he followed along the path, contemplating quietly his various options in both his social and combative futures. She had reacted with exceptional speed to her lieutenant’s joke – that was notable. However, she was not currently being courted by all accounts between the pair of them, which left him open should he choose to pursue her. He would have to consider it based upon her performance in battle. “You have a surprisingly relaxed attitude toward your subordinates Ruka, I am not accustomed to such familiarity, does it aid your position as a leader?” Location: Squad 9 officeOutlook: Light excitement Health: 100% Current Action: Preparing to sparOOC: Nothing quite like how quickly he alters topics.Nyhil's Theme: Not yet decided.I am the dawn of ages, I am the days seen through

I am the clouds that cover, Your way into the blue
I kiss with life to give. All this in spite of you!

【Raine massaged the portion of his head where the book had made impact. He crouched and picked up the book on Japanese Folklore from the ground. "-And I often wonder why books give me headaches. I thought I just read too much." He muttered with a short snicker. His bright turquoise eyes, unusually vibrant, looked over to Nyhil once more.
"I think Ruka won't mind me being around. We fought side by side in battle during the war. That put our companionship to the test." He admitted- glancing over to his gigai when mention was made of it. He studied his replica with mild interest before responding to the Captain's statement. "My gigai, yes.... That was a gift given to me by the previous Captain of your Squad. It has to be one of the most expensive and complicated things I own. I have learned to use them in battle as well, much to Ruka's dismay." He did not include the honorific at the end of Ruka's name. It was not in his nature to address a close friend of his with an honorific. Byakuya insisted that Raine learn how to address people as a noble would, formal and refined. Raine was of the Shiba clan. They were known for being unruly and unorthodox. Raine took pride in their unique manner of presenting themselves.
Raine slipped a small silvery looking maching that resembled a lighter with a cartridge attached to the rear from his kosode. By flicking a simple switch, a little pill popped out from an opening at the top and rolled into Raine's palm. "Here." Raine said as he handed it to Nyhil. "Feel free to take one for testing if you see fit. It expands once it has made impact with the ground. It does not feel emotions and will deflate if you wound it." Raine explained as he followed Nyhil and Ruka.
He soon fell silent as the two Captains exchanged thoughts in conversation. He fiddled with one of his notepads in the meanwhile- waiting for him to be addressed as they walked towards the Ninth Division training grounds.

She raised her head slightly and noticed the Captain of Squad 12 and Lt. Shiba were already there, should she go in there? It seemed as though they were having a conversation and Zoe didn't mean to intrude.... "What should I do? These papers need to be filled out but I don't want to interrupt the Captain. Oh good gracious what should I do?" She muttered under her breath in front of the office as she zoned out to her thoughts and just stood there awkwardly.

Captain of Squad 9
In the flurry of movement it took to leave the office she'd unintentionally missed Nyhil's comment on not having been, well, courted. She wanted to just arrive to the field and fight to get rid of some of the aggression but it was not to be. Her fellow Captain's question caught her attention before she could get very far and she paused long enough to glance over her shoulder. The brunette blinked in question a thoughtful look flickering across her face as the air around her (which had been rippling with heat) began to steadily drop in temperature.
"I'm not sure if it aids much of anything... I just.." she shrugged relaxing a fraction "I guess it might. I mean I know a lot of my squad but that should be a given for any Captain. If anything it helps getting to know people, seeing who they work best with and how effectively they can accomplish a task if they're assigned to a certain group or if they're better of solo. You get to see the relationships between the squad a lot clearer than you would at a distance." she paused, tapping the side of her chin and looking up at the ceiling "And I think that's about it."
Being calmer allowed her to focus on her surroundings more... including noticing the third seat not too far away from them now "Oh, Zoe!" she smiled and walked over grabbing half the stack of papers from her "You're going to trip walking around like that. Lemme help.. Sorry Nyhil, give me a second. Rain(ier) how about you lend a hand to a lady?"
She raised an eyebrow half-mocking as she spoke to her Lieutenant. Little bitter? Maybe. She didn't intend on keeping him locked up in the office but she could torture him. Just a little bit.
Don't give me those looks! We can finish this! ((or... not? XD ))

As Zoe was zoning out even more Captain Kusabana noticed her presence and took half the stack of papers from her, she felt a bit guilty for interrupting the Captain but It was too late for that. "I'm sorry for interrupting Captain Kusabana, these papers are mainly requests from the Editorial and Rough Drafts in need of approval and revision."She replied calmly as she looked at the Captain. The weight of the stack of papers wasn't really a problem for Zoe, but the whole tripping up part was a problem. "Thank you for the concern Captain. Also, a pleasure to meet you Captain Dakkar; I am Zoe Rimida, the 3rd Seat of our Squad."As she spoke a gentle nod was given since her hands were occupied at the moment. She thought of what she had heard, the spars sounded interesting, it had been a while since she had been allowed to fight at something close to full strength. She would definitely be asking her Captain for permission to participate.

【"Rimida-san!" Raine barked from behind Ruka, finally coming into full view. His bright turquoise eyes studied the stature of the girl as he bent his lips into something of a smile. It was almost sneaky, as if he were planning something in his head. To others it could appear intimidating as well. He glided forward to where the stack of papers were positioned and looked over them, before finally standing in front of the Third Seat and taking the rest of the stack from off her hands. "If I am not mistaken, the drafts are not due to be turned in until tomorrow. I thank you for bringing them in earlier than scheduled."
He brought them towards the desk and heaved them onto the wooden surface with a heavy thunk. "Hmmm... Well, these two Captains here are actually going to be sparring. Seeing as I have nothing to do..." He paused as he looked at the stack of papers and cleared his throat, correcting himself. "Seeing as I have nothing better to do, would you like to spar with me in the meanwhile? I've had no time to put my skills to the test since the war. I'm pretty sure I've gotten rather rusty by now. I figure we may as well make use of the training grounds while the Captains are there. It'd be great for us to take a few pointers as well- learn from observation y'know?"

Nyhil Dakkar
- - Captain of Squad Twelve - - A dangerous flicker of unadulterated hatred flickered across Nyhil's face at even the brief mention of his predecessor – gone so quickly it was difficult to tell if it had been there in the first place. He returned to listening politely if dispassionately a moment after the micro-expression and accepted the small 'pill' for later consideration. His gaze drifted toward the young woman (Zoe) arriving to the area as she lingered to the side. Perhaps she was trying to be silent but Nyhil glanced toward her approach before she'd ever turned a corner. With all the stimuli he didn't notice Ruka's lack of reply to his first question – he would assume later that she was free.
“Fair reasoning as to why it's called social chemistry. I will have to consider taking up your stand on such a matter.” Nyhil commented at Ruka's observations. Her observation made it sound a lot like when one first learned the science. Learning what would mix well and what would be explosive. Certainly the physics was much different but the general idea was much the same. Not that it seemed he would easily react so well with members of his own squadron. Nyhil certainly had an awkwardness that most subordinates wouldn't know how to approach.
“A pleasure Rimada-san.” Nyhil greeted absently, his mind having been moved back to the 'pill' in his hands. He was staring at it intently, as though that alone offered him some sort of insight into the inner workings of the 'device'. He paused as appropriate with Ruka or continued walking as needed, clearly someone easily distracted by things he considered 'shiny'. He would walk most of the rest of the path in contemplative silence.

The sneaky little smile of Raine; Zoe knew him well enough to know the meaning of it; He was up to something. As Raine complemented her Zoe pushed the thought away. "No need to thank me Lieutenant Shiba, the Editorial Department is working at a hectic pace and I just simply deliver the paperwork."She said as she scratched the side of her head and gave a wry smile. Then as Raine mentioned the spar between the Captains Zoe couldnt help but show interest. She hadnt seen her Captain in action in a long time. And then Raine asked to spar with her, a small glint of mischevious nature lit her eyes at the proposal. Zoe was waiting for a chance to unleash her powers. "I accept your challenge Lieutenant Shiba."She replied with a strong voice, the small framed woman was a 3rd seat but not for her power, she was misleadingly powerful and having never sparred with Lt. Shiba it would be advantageous for Zoe; While she somewhat knew of Raine's abilities her own powers were a mystery to most people other than her Captain and a few other high ranking officials. "I do hope you wont go easy on me just because Im a lady Lieutenant, I can and will hurt you if you underestimate me. A hint of darkness and bloodlust exumed by her words could be felt from her playful exchange of words with the Lieutenant as her deep crimson eyes lit up to a vibrant blood red color for a second, the lines on her face took a more twisted and dark look to them and then as quickly as her demeanor changed it returned to normal. This was something involuntary but it was welcome, the natural madness of her forgotten house was strong with Zoe and her brother Sestran and made for a certain X Factor of intimidation.

We're coming up on our deadline, everyone! Ruka Kusabana
Captain of Squad 9
"Chemistry, huh?" the brunette mused as she set down her half of the stack on her desk. She leaned against the wood for a moment mulling over the statement in good humor. What little she knew of chemistry was that when you mixed things it tended to go boom. The one time such a thing had been brought up in the Academy Ruka had in fact made things go boom (the room, to be specific) which was the reason that upon graduation she knew for certain that she would never, ever, ever, ever join the 12th Division.
The captain shook her head, smiling, and pushed off the desk to head back out into the daylight "It's all right, Zoe. As Raine said, thank you for bringing this in early. It'll definitely help us get this month's paper done in time." she grinned and patted the girl on the shoulder. The action was a bit heavy-handed but not in an unkind way, more like she didn't quite know her own strength.
The woman took a step back crossing her arms in amusement as she watched her third seat and her Lieutenant square off. Leave it to Raine, huh? Oh well at least she could let them fight in good conscience. Raine could control himself and Zoe was no lightweight either. She grinned and though it took a bit of effort managed to reach up high enough to playfully muss up their hair (not like Raine's could get any messier but hey it was worth the effort). The look on the young woman's face had served to unsettle her a bit though she didn't let that show.
"Now now play nice kids. You'd do well not to underestimate each other" she drawled a playful grin on her lips "In any case try not to overdo it. I like having you both in one piece. And if I have to handle all the department's work these last three days because you landed yourselves in Fourth Division so help me God..." she let her voice trail off there shaking her fist a bit menacingly with a steely glint in her eyes. Then with that said she turned on her heel and started walking again.
"And now... onward!"
Don't give me those looks! We can finish this! ((It's a joke, Raine. A JOKE. >_> )) ((@Sasori: It's totes okay dearie. XD)) ((...am I mistaken or isn't she in the Kaisen family right now? o.o; )) [Now this time... exeunt!]
