Ryo nodded and looked at Ashimitsu. That thought of what Sousuke Aizen would be doing to her fellow captain and the Captain Commanders Lieutenant angered her. "Do you have any tea, Captain?" she asked. Ashimitsu nodded, scooping the kitten off of his desk.

Tsukiro slipped off his captain's haori and bundled it on the couch, setting the sleeping kitten in the folds. Nekoro stretched and rolled onto his back, sleeping in an awkward position that made Tsukiro laugh. He moved over to the table where a there was a tea set and a kettle filled with water sitting on an electric burner plugged into the wall. He switched on the burner and leaned against the wall next to the table as he waited for the water to boil.
"Has Naomi Kato been told about Ukitake? Was anyone in his squad told the details?" He sighed. "Naomi cares a lot for him. As do the rest of his subordinates." |

Ryo looked to Ashimitsu awkwardly. "Don't you think that they would be the first informed? Where is your head, Captain? You mention Lieutenant Ise as if she was never taken. Now, you ask if Captain Ukitake's own squad has been notified of his taking. What is wrong with you? Get your head out of your ass, kid. And, pay attention. You are a captain, now. You can not afford to not know things." She shook her head. "Really, Tsukiro. You can not afford to be naive."

As the kettle whistled he sighed, switching off the burner and taking the kettle off. "Sorry. I've just... had a rough past couple of days. I've been mostly putting my head towards what needed to be done here. I forgot to make room for other things."
He poured the tea and brought two cups over to his desk. He pushed one over to Hirabayashi and kept the other. "How are they doing? I haven't been over there in a while." |

"They are dealing with it in the only manner they can. They are keeping busy." Ryo reached for the cup and gently blew on it. "We bear many hardships as captains, Ashimitsu. But, we can not lose sight of what is important. You have to try harder to stay abreast of current situations. Read your reports in their entirety. Don't just skim. If you have questions, ask. If you do not understand something, ask one of your fellow captains to explain." She looked to Ashimitsu before taking a sip of her tea. "We wish to only see you succeed. You have to do better."

Tsukiro raised his cup to his lips, hesitated then placed it back on his desk. His gaze moved over to the sleeping kitten. "Where did you get him anyway? And what made you decide to bring him to me?" When the kitten stretched again Tsukiro smiled. |

Ryo turned and looked at the kitten. "You don't ask someone where they've gotten a gift for you. You take it with a smile." She looked back to Ashmitsu. "Besides, I can't keep him. I am very rarely in my office these days. And, Sajin keeps growling at him when he comes to get me to spar with him."

Tsukiro laughed at the thought of Komamura growling at Nekoro. "I guess I was the most obvious choice, since I'm a cat person." He turned back to the captain. "Thank you. He'll have a great home here." He looked up, thinking to himself. "I should go to the market and pick up some fish and chicken for him. Can't keep a pet with nothing to feed it. Though I think I have some salmon and tuna in my pantry for tonight. Do you know what kinds of things he likes and doesn't like?"

Ryo raised the sleeve of her haori. "He will eat your haori...Hungry or not." She sat her tea down on the table and stood from his seat. "I'm afraid I have to go, Captain. I'll be back in a few days time, to check on you."

Tsukiro chuckled at the sight of her torn sleeve. He stood and bowed to her as she walked out. "Thank you, Captain. I will see you then."
When she was gone he let out a heavy sigh and moved over to the window, deciding to look outside now that his headache was gone. After standing there for a bit, he suddenly felt a tugging sensation on the bottom of his haori. He looked down to see Nekoro wrestling with his haori, the fabric between his teeth and claws. He picked him up and tapped his nose firmly.
"Clothes are not for eating or playing with," he said sternly, as if scolding a child. The kitten whined and he placed him on his shoulder, cradling him with is arm and patting his back. He turned back to the window. "Let's have tomorrow be better, okay?"
Nekoro purred as he laid his head on Tsukiro's shoulder.

"Breaking News":It was the next day after their return from the attack on Las Noches as Tsukiro sat at his desk doing the paperwork for the day. However his thoughts were far from paperwork. He could not help but think of the things that had transpired in his life just since the last year in a half, and now today, here he sat in a position that he had dreamed of since he was a small boy. Sitting his pen to the desk he sighed heavily, combing his fingers through his hair, but he could not help but think that something was wrong. Something was missing from his life, and it was not a something; it was... a someone. Picking up the pen again he finished the file before him closing it and placing it to the finished stack to his right. Reaching over to the unfinished stack on his left he grabbed another placing it in front of him. He flipped it open and stared at the page in front of him. Another heavy sigh slipped from him his eyes closing slowly as he spoke. "Its over--just let her go." He sighed again letting his head fall forward as a loud thud sounded off in his office. "Easier said than done dumb-ass." He stayed in that position for a moment then lifted up, pulling at his haori to straight it. "Alright!" He said aloud to himself, "pull yourself together. This is what she wanted. You're still friends at least." Tsukiro wined dropping his head back down. He hated when he was alone like this and thinking about-- her. He loved her far too much and would do anything to make her happy. Even if meant letting Ichimaru have her. However, the thought of that Snake being anywhere near her killed him inside a little each day. He wanted her back, and he was to the point he did not care how. He just knew where his heart lied, and that was with Kita. She was as big as a part of his dreams as being a Captain was. There was still time and he was not going to give up so easily. Not on her. Not on HIS Kita.

Someone knocked him on the head with a - CD? Tsukiro reached up and looked over at the person responsible. Kairo grinned. “A souvenir from Karakura and a token of good news. Karin Kurosaki is alive,” he paused, “and that hell butterfly will give you the next piece of information.” He nodded to the butterfly that sat on the corner of his captain’s pen. “Sousuke Aizen is dead.”
Tsukiro nearly dropped the CD in his hand, narrowing his eyes at his best friend. “That’s not a funny joke,” he growled. He extended his hand out and eyes widened as the same information was relayed to him via the soul messenger. His eyes narrowed as he refocused on Kairo. “How?” he said, voice grim.
Kairo nodded. “Aizen came to kill Kita after the battle in Las Noches. Ichimaru followed him there, and still blessed by the goddess, destroyed him. I watched as he broke Kyoka Suigetsu and pulled Aizen’s heart from his chest with his own hands. Koga the espada took his body away afterwards.”
He fell silent for a moment and then dared to set a hand on his friend’s shoulder. “It’s over, Tsuki. He’s dead.” He was quiet again for a few more minutes. He had some bad news too, but his childhood friend needed to digest this first.

Tsukiro was not to sure what to say, this news was surely good. Sousuke was dead. Finally, they were all free of that bastards torment. It was hard to believe, even after the thought of it for a few minutes. He looked to his lieutenant and best friend, slowly a wide smile crossing his lips. Before Kairo could blink Tsukiro was to his feet, grabbed his friend and hugged him as he laughed softly.
"Its really over!" He then released him slapping his upper arm firmly then clasping his hand to his shoulder. Tsukiro still wore a wide smile. "His reign of terror is finally over." He walked back over to his chair and sat down with a carefree bounce. "So what's the bad news?"
Kairo cleared his throat and looked at Tsukiro. "Kisuke let Loki go on Kita's behest. I think she needs his support now, though she won't say it aloud. Lieutenant Hinamori was taken captive while we were in Las Noches, but I doubt it will be long, considering our victory and their injuries, and Inoue returned to Las Noches on her own. Finally..." he paused, "Ichimaru is now in a coma for indeterminate amount of time."
"Damn it!" Tsukiro growled under his breath combing his fingers through his hair, his eyes adverting across the room. "All that trouble to catch that Bastard and he released him." He took a breath. "And poor Hinamori and Inoue. Anyone got any clues on why she would return to that hell hole?"
Kairo was about to speak up as Tsukiro sat up quickly in his chair. "What did you say about Ichimaru?" His eyes were giving the bookshelf across the room a pointed looked as his head whipped back looking at Kairo.

Kairo sighed. He wasn’t sure he should repeat this bit of news, not when his captain could take this personally, but then again, they were best friends. “Ichimaru is in a coma. He slipped into one soon after killing Aizen. However, according to Captain Ukitake, it is different than the coma that took Hinamori. Shinsou is alert and in Kita’s hands, and the captain believes Ichimaru will wake. It is uncertain when. The captain and the shopkeeper seemed to think it was something coming to him. I think that’s the reason Kita wants Urahara’s support, too.”

Tsukiro's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at Kairo, but his friend knew that his look was not directed at him. It was just his mood and state of mind. "He deserves more than a coma. He deserves to be behind bars for what he has done. Even dead would suit me just fine." He looked across the room, his fist clenching tightly as his knuckles turned white.
"A place I will see him before all is said and done." Tsukiro stood from his desk again and looked at Kairo. "How is Kisuke doing?"
