Hello readers! I'm Chief Editor N, and this is the new Advice Column in the Hueco-Seireitei Times! We were forced, I mean asked to make this column to help the arrancars and soul reapers and to support unity between them. So, today we have a few questions from our staff, the rest of them are up to you, so send in some questions or I'll send Gin after you! Wait, I'm not allowed to threaten them? Ah… I strongly suggest you send in questions, for your own safety. What? That wasn't a threat, it was a suggestion!
Anyways, today we have managed to recruit Tesla Lindocruz and Kira Izuru to answer some questions today!
How do you deal with your superiors? -Terrified Rookie
With Captain Ichimaru, I found it easiest to simply supervise him to make sure he got his work done. It also helps if you know your superiors favorite objects and hang outs, I often found it necessary to bribe Captain Ichimaru with dried persimmons to have him complete his work. -Kira
I find it best to stay out of their way and simply let them do as they wish. When I interfere with Nnoitra-Sama, he tends to beat me up or yell at me. It works best to stay out of things and simply clean up the mess afterwards. -Tesla
Why do you put up with your Espada/Captain? -Confused Lieutenant
I actually get along rather well with Captain Ichimaru, he's actually rather decent if he likes you, and his pranks are very inventive. I consider him more of a friend than a superior officer truth be told. -Kira
Nnoitra-Sama allowed me to roam with him when we were hollows, and I owe him a great deal. Without him it's likely that I would've been eaten. I have grown used to him and I am fond of my superior. It makes me very happy that I can help him. -Tesla
What's the worst prank your Espada/Captain ever pulled on you? -Needing Ideas
Well, there are too many pranks to count, but one of the worst was when Captain Ichimaru hid a cat in my desk and trained it to follow me around. He also taught it to maul all other Captains. It was terrible when I had to go see Head Captain Yamamoto… Poor cat… -Kira
Once, Nnoitra-Sama tricked me into going to Szayel-Sama's laboratory for a check up. He tried to make me sample his Fraccion, and tell him what they tasted like. Luckily Harribel-Sama was passing by and saved me. -Tesla
Do Espada have to do paperwork? Is it difficult? -Drowning in papers
Well papers, I don't know about Espada but I know the Gotei Thirteen all have to do paperwork. I swear there are forms for anything and everything, I once had to sign a paper that increased our squad's drinking budget. Captain Ichimaru asks for the strangest things sometimes… -Kira
Yes, we also have to do paperwork. Of course, our work is minimal, and I do all of Nnoitra's paperwork for him, along with my own. It doesn't require much effort, though I have heard that Szayel-Sama has a horrible amount of paperwork to fill in for his research. -Tesla
What do you think of the Captains/Espada you work with? -Curious Squad Four Member
I suppose I can make a list.
Captain Yamamoto: He's a very respectable leader who knows how to get things done.
Captain Soi-Fon: She's very serious, but she always looks out for her squad. She's very good at solving mysteries.
Captain Ichimaru: My Captain is a handful, but he's very fun. I don't know why everyone thinks he's so creepy.
Captain Unohana: She's very motherly, and a remarkable healer. She's able to stay calm in all sorts of situations.
Captain Aizen: I've heard good things about him from Lieutenant Hinamori, but I haven't talked to him much. Perhaps that's a good thing, considering the whole traitor incident…
Captain Kuchiki: Very regal, come from a family of nobles. He keeps Renji in line.
Captain Komamura: I wonder why he always wears that helmet…
Captain Kyoraku: Perhaps he should drink a little less? Just a suggestion Captain.
Captain Tousen: I don't know him well. I do know he's blind.
Captain Hitsugaia: Apparently it snows when he sleeps. Who knew?
Captain Zaraki: I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT YOU! NOT EVER! PLEASE STOP ASKING SIR!
Captain Kurotsuchi: I will never wander near his labs again. I saw… Unspeakable things…
Captain Ukitake: He's very kind! He's always looking out for everyone, even though he's ill!
I hope that covers it. -Kira
My turn then?
Starrk-Sama: He sleeps most of the time.
Baraggan-Sama: He has… A unique taste in Fraccion..
Harribel-Sama: She's very kind to us Fraccion.
Ulquiorra-Sama: Is generally quiet and emotionless. He keeps Grimmjow in line.
Nnoitra-sama: He is very strong and determined. Nothing can stop him.
Grimmjow-Sama: His Fraccion really look up to him. I've heard he treats them well.
Zommari-Sama: He's one of the mellower Espada, and enjoys meditation.
Szayel-Sama: Scary as hell. I try to avoid his laboratory at all costs.
Aaroniero-Sama: He likes the dark. He needs it to shape shift.
Yammy-Sama: He eats a lot.
That would be all of them. -Tesla
Captain Zaraki and Grimmjow keep trying to fight me! Know any good hiding spots! -Totally not a strawberry
Well, Strawberry, I find that hiding in their own division/building usually keeps you safe. I mean, they don't expect to find you there. It's hiding in plain sight. -Kira
There are several abandoned buildings in Hueco Mundo, and I'm sure the Privaron Espada would be happy to help keep you safe. They really aren't fond of current Espada or Shinigami anyway. -Tesla
Do you like the world of the living? -Traveler
It's alright. I find it rather confusing, not to mention filled with danger for those with no experience. -Kira
I've only been there occasionally, to buy things for Nnoitra-Sama. I find the people there to be generally kind, and the food to be tasteful. -Tesla
Well that's it for this issue, so send in some questions so we staff don't have to make them all up! It's hard work you know!
Next time we'll have Yumichika Asegawa and Tia Harribel! Feel free to request for us to kidnap, I mean… Well, consider it surprise adoption! Yeah, to surprise adopt someone for the day to answer your questions! Ta!
