I think the biggest problem right now is that people aren't sure what to do, so maybe a new little fun RP will help ease the stopper on our creativity?
I dunno.... secretly I wanted to RP my new character, and it looked like it could be a while ;P It was the a bright sunny day, the sort of day where nobody wants to be kept inside. The sky in Seireitei was a crisp, innocent blue that was completely unmarred by even the hint of a cloud. It was what many would call a "perfect day," and Akiko was stuck in the Seventh Squad headquarters, frantically finishing the last of her paperwork. The cup of tea on her desk had long since grown cold; she didn't even want to take a break to sip the tea, for she was desperate to get out and to the grocery store. A young man had brought the tea for her, a low ranking officer whom many though liked Akiko. She was certain that they were incorrect, of course. After all, lots of people brought tea for others when they looked like they needed a break, or left flowers when they were feeling down, right? Yes, he was just a nice guy. She did not have time to wonder what others seemed to see that she didn't, however. Tonight there was a meeting of the Secret Society for Secretive Souls, and not just any meeting. It was the Annual "Secret Recipe" Chili Cook-off, and Akiko was determined to win. She had been perfecting her recipe over the past month, but had been so intent on getting her recipe just right, that she hadn't noticed when she used up the last of her peppers and various other "secret ingredients" the night before. Just her luck, the stack of papers to be filled out on her desk just didn't seem to get smaller that day. Apparently, a series of rather powerful hollows had emerged in the living world that day, and it was more than the resident Shinigami could handle. Such days made Akiko wish she were low enough rank to work in the field regularly again -- that way, at least, she wouldn't have so much paperwork to do. The field work for even a third-seat such as herself was few and far between, unfortunately. This was one of the biggest reasons that she wasn't a lieutenant -- she would have even less opportunity to fight. Setting her brush down on its stand, Akiko stamped the last document and heaved a large sigh of relief as she filed it. Grabbing up her things, she tossed a quick "I'm heading out!" over he shoulder as she leaped out of the doorway and made her way to the market. As she moved, she went over the list of ingredients in her head -- ...onions, tomatoes, shiitake... -- then tried to decide what extra she could buy to throw off anyone trying to discover her recipe. Like any proper secret recipe, she had only written the recipe once, in a bizarre shorthand, and burned it as soon as she had it memorized. As she picked the items from the vendors, she tried to buy a bit extra of each, so even if someone saw what she bought, the amounts would be wrong. "Right, that should be it," she said happily, more to herself than to anyone in particular, as she stuffed a couple cloves of garlic into her bag. OOC: Alright, well anyone can be a member of S4 if they want to. You don't have to be to join this RP, but you certainly can if you think your character would join/be bullied into joining. I didn't want to go too far without giving people a chance to jump in, so I guess I'll leave off here.... |
