God, she was hot. Really hot, and not in the usual sense of the word that applied to her.
She didn't know what the temperature was, but she didn't care. She was sweaty and sticky, especially in her little valley.
"Matsumoto, can you please do some work?"
She looked up at her captain, calmly working hard at his desk. Of course he could work in this heat — he had his own personal air conditioner!
In a sudden brainwave, she figured out how to cool the room down.
Putting on her best whiny voice, she said, "Heeey… I was wondering if I could get the afternoon off…"
Hitsugaya looked up. "You haven't even done any work!"
"But, Captain, I need to get ready to go drinking tonight!"
She watched as his eyebrow twitched and felt a drop in temperature.
"… You're going drinking tonight?"
Nod.
"And you want me to let you take the afternoon off to get ready to go drinking?"
Another nod.
"And I assume that after going drinking tonight, you'll turn up at work tomorrow with a hangover and still not get any work done?"
"Mmm… probably."
Matsumoto felt the room temperature finally plunge to a comfortable level and she sighed in bliss.
"Actually, Captain, I've changed my mind. I'm just going to take a nap on the couch. 'Night!"
Hitsugaya felt a headache coming on.
