Welcome to Gaia! ::

Mikazuki entered the building with a brisk walk and a straight face. Her sword rattled by her side as she passed by the Feudal Japan-themed main area; noting the different arts and crafts, she noted that she would have to stop by the room again much later to gaze upon the pieces. Entering the waiting room, she noted that there was no other presence in the room except for hers.

She stared at the door for about a minute, gathered her resolve and crossed the room. Her hand reached out slowly for the door, knuckles faced up, her body right next to the door, as if to hear if there was anyone inside. Mika's hand stopped abruptly, having second thoughts as whether to continue or not.

Then, she knocked lightly, twice, just so that anybody inside would hear it.

"Captain? Are you in, sir?" Mikazuki asked through the door, her ear almost right next to it.

"Sir," began Mikazuki, entering the door and standing in front of her commanding officer in relaxed attention, "thank you for receiving me, sir."

She saluted quickly and lightly, keeping a straight face and tense body as she lowered her salute gently.

"I would like to request formal training in sword skills, Kidou accuracy and maybe some hand-to-hand combat."

((Same here. I totally understand your situation))

Mikazuki was silent when the Captain asked her a somewhat ambiguous question. She did not exactly understand its meaning and gave a slightly confused look, even though her Captain was not looking. Staring at the same window as the Captain did, his chair turned around and he stood up.

Walking past her, he asked if she was coming to follow him. She turned around and slowly sped up to follow the Captain outside of the office. When Mikazuki stepped out of the office, she neatly closed the door behind her, and continued on.

[Exits to Old Sanctuary] ((I don't see it? Where's the Old Sanctuary?))

Mashiro walked into the Captain's new office after a short knock. He did not know why he came to the office, but he felt pulled for some reason. Seeing that the Captain was not in, or at least he thought so, Mashiro made himself at home. The Captain's desk was retangular in shape, with a large chair behind it. The Blonde Shinigami sat in the seat with an enlighted sense of being. After all, all his Shinigami life Mashiro had always wanted to be a Captain..... "Captain Morimoto.... It has a nice ring to it.." Mashiro said as he looked at the celing. Images went through his head, and pleasent ones at that.....

Mashiro was walking around the 13th Squad Barracks with a white heori on, signifying he was Captain Class. With him was his Vice-Captain, Hatsume. As they walked around the bulidings, other shinigami waved at them "Hello, Taichou." they would say. Life almost seemed to halt in that moment, or was it because Mashiro was brought back to reality by falling out of the chair with a loud thud.

Mashiro peared over the Captain's desk to see Shinzou sitting in a nearby chair. " Hello, Shinzou Mashiro said as he brought himself to his feet. " What brings you here?"

Mashiro gave a slight chuckle as he sat in a chair next to Shinzou. " Ya, I know what you mean. Say, how are your matches going?"

Mashiro gave a slight sign of a grin. " I understand..... when I lost my battle with both you and Amatsu, it really hurt my pride as a shinigami. However, I myself did make it through our second round. The captain has yet to return with the results of it, that is the main reason I am here."

Evil decided to stroll casually to Mock's office. Sure, she could have shunpo'd, but she liked to walk as well and check up on other things. It had been some time since she had paid a visit to this part of the Sereitei and she wanted to check up on it as well to see how it was doing. It seemed busy Shinigami were going about their normal routine, for the most part ignoring her. She was fine with this as well. She disliked this bowing thing some people insisted on doing. It seemed out-dated and unnecessary to her. But, most of the Shinigami were from Japan, where that was a polite thing to do, so she didn't get too angry about it. While she was looking around she wasn't dawdling.

Mock had sent her a hell butterfly just asking if he could come to her office. She didn't know the reason why and the cryptic message intrigued her. Normally people came to her and she liked getting out of her office. She was procrastinating on her paperwork, but hey, what were Vice Captains for?

She chuckled lightly, having finally come to Mock's office. She knocked lightly on the door, wanting to be polite and not just barge in. She stood quietly and waited.
