6th Division - VC Office

Akiye frowned, "Really? That's rather strange of the Taicho..." She said, truthfully feeling bad for the Fukutaicho. Still though, this did ignite the author within her. 'Definitely a plot line I can use! Though what should something like this fall under....?' She wondered, obviously thinking about the X-rated scenes ahead of time, nearly blushing as she did so.

This could certainly be a good drama line she could write and draw for. She wanted to slap herself for not thinking about it ever before.

'Please forgive me Doujin-gods. For I have failed to notice such an easy and good storyline....'

Sonomi would certainly love such a plot as well, as it could lead to angry sex between their favorite yaoi pair. Yes, such a great plot...

"Maybe he was in such a hurry he didn't have time to tell you?" She wondered aloud, trying to help and also leech more information from the Fukutaicho.

YES! And that was his problem! How could the man do this to him?
Xarath sighed before clicking his tongue. Well, Masaru apologized, so he should not lose his head over this again.

"Maybe he was in such a hurry he didn't have time to tell you?"

"But... but that's no excuse." Maybe he was losing it right now, told her of all this, simply because he had nobody else to talk to. "I was worried sick and he just left me." he continued. Well he already started, he might as well end it. Besides... it felt good talking with a woman about it. Again he clicked his tongue before glancing back down on the papers, picking his pen, which he had let fallen on his desk, up again. "He knows not to do that. Knows how easily I worry about him." he murmured, this time more to himself than to her. He just had nobody besides that man left...

Akiye could honestly say she felt as if her mind had imploded on her upon hearing the Fukutaicho's words.

'KYAAAA~' She mentally squealed, keeping her outward expression thoughtful and understanding as she listened to Xarath. 'Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!!!! This is a freaking goldmine! THANK YOU DOUJIN-GODS! THANK YOU SO VERY...VERRRRY MUCH!'

This had her fangirl gears in automatic gear, she couldn't help it. What fangirl wouldn't freak the moment they heard one of the people in their favorite pairings say such a thing about the other? It had her absolutely wild on the inside.

Oh yes. Sonomi would be so very pleased with the recent findings. Akiye could already tell they had a full nights work ahead of them for this project. The prewriting would be so easy! Xarath was practically handing her adorable quotes on a silver platter!

It was almost too good to be true.

"I see." She said. "I'm sure he felt bad after hearing you tell him that, I'm sure he'll be sure to tell you next time. Right?" That was just the type of man Shirakawa was. She knew her Taicho hated making people worry about him, especially those that he really cared for.

"He wasn't hurt was he?" She asked, this could really add to the plot. "He's alright isn't he?"

Even if the 'fangirl-moment' had shown on her face Xarath would not have noticed. He was once more absorbed in the reports in front of him. Plain Hollow attack, nothing that would keep him entertained for too long.
Shame.

"I see."

Tongue click.

Just remembering his taichou's face... Xarath sighed heavily.

"He wasn't hurt was he?" She asked, this could really add to the plot. "He's alright isn't he?"

"Yes, he felt bad about it. Well that's what he said after I freaked out in front of him." He clicked his tongue, not even paying attention to what exactly he was saying, but concentrating on the report. "He also promised me to never do it again."

Another tongue click.

"He is alright. He is currently in his office bonding some more with Uyusei-taichou." he muttered before signing the papers.

Once he was done he leaned back in his chair and looked at the girl. "Unfortunately he was hurt." He picked up the papers. "I made sure that he got healed in 4th though." That said he was holding the reports towards her.

Akiye took the papers, her mind screaming at her from the information that was given to her. 'Ahhh, so he was hurt! Ooo, this is just too sweet!' She was getting so much more than she'd ever expected.

"He was?" She said, a tinge of worry in her tone. "I'm glad you were able to get him to go to Fourth. I hope it was nothing too serious."

'Ohhhh, thank you, thank you, thank you~'

"Thank you for signing the papers, Shiru-Fukutaicho." She said, giving another respectful bow, nearly dropping her sketchbook in the process, causing the girl to freak a little before her calmer exposure returned. "Heh, sorry about that."

Looking over the papers she gave a nod and smiled at the Fukutaicho. "I'll be sure these get delivered to their designated location safely."

"He was?"

Xarath clicked his tongue and nodded, noticing how a fuzzy feeling appeared in his belly again. Damn man, could have died.

Quote :

"I'm glad you were able to get him to go to Fourth. I hope it was nothing too serious."

"Ah." Well maybe he had not really escorted the male there, but threw a bitch fit and then forced Masaru to go there on his own.
That, the girl didn't need to know though.

Quote :

"Thank you for signing the papers, Shiru-Fukutaicho."

He nodded once more and murmured a "You are welcome."

Though before he could turn his head he saw her almost dropping her belongings. Immediately he leaned forward to catch everything just in case. Though she managed to hold everything before the papers scattered on the floor.

Quote :

"Heh, sorry about that."

Xarath shook his head before clicking his tongue. "Don't worry about it." he assured her and leaned back in his chair again.

Quote :

"I'll be sure these get delivered to their designated location safely."

"I am sure you will. Thank you." he said softly and gave her a tiny smile.

"Have a good rest of the day, Shiru-Fukutaicho." Akiye said before giving a final bow before turning around, a large smile spreading across her face when she knew Xarath wouldn't see it.

Once outside of his office she kept at a normal pace until she was far enough away from the main office before she sprinted back to the barracks, nearly squealing in excitement.

"This is just TOO great~!" She squealed in a quiet whisper.

'I can't WAIT to get to work! Oh the joys of being an artist~'

Quote :

"Have a good rest of the day, Shiru-Fukutaicho."

"You too." he said before clicking his tongue.

Once she was outside again he leaned his head against the chair's headrest and closed his eyes.

Yes, simple Hollow attack reports certainly didn't give him a lot to do.
Now he again didn't have anything to work on.
"And it's all Masaru's fault." he thought bitterly before opening his eyes again and leaning forward - resting on his elbows.

"Maybe I should just go back to my room. But it's too early to waste away there already."

After five more minutes of sitting in absolute silence Xarath decided that this simply wouldn't do. He just couldn't sit in this chair all day just because there was no work to do anymore.

Though what should he do instead?
He had nobody to visit or spend time with.

Going back to the teaparty was a stupid idea. He already told them he still had stuff to finish, besides... he'd only ruin their fun anyway.

And visiting her? No, he'd get too far away from SS. What if an emergency occurred? It was not a good idea.

He just... had nothing to do outside of work.

"I guess I could go training." he thought and clicked his tongue. Though doing it alone was something that didn't help him move forward anymore. "I need to find a training partner. Somewhere."

Xarath sighed and stood up. Well currently he didn't have one, so he better move that idea to the trashcan too.

"Guess I'll just go for a walk and see what happens."
