Today's evaluation didn't necessarily merit recruits to gain immediate ranks. Each division in the Gotei contained only 20 seated officers, while the rest remained unseated.
The evaluation provided the captain and lieutenant an opportunity evaluate promising members and assess each of their abilities. If none were noteworthy they remained unseated until they proved their worth.
Byakuya stood next to his lieutenant, observing the courtyard. Each of the recruits had introduced themselves, and Byakuya surprisingly noted a few propitious members.
"Say Captain, what do you think of Yanagi?" Renji asked, and he eyed the girl he sparred with this morning. He had to admit she was good, even fresh out of the academy.
Byakuya looked at the hazel eye girl. She caught his attention at her introduction when she greeted herself vivaciously with no fear nor stutter, a kind smile on her face.
Byakuya's eyes gazed at her and gave no indication he acknowledged Renji's question. Renji grin falter, but what did he expect from his captain.
After they gone through the regime demonstrating each technique they learned in the academy, Renji ordered them to line up and gave them each a number.
It was almost the end of the evaluation, and each of the new recruits were required to spar with one another, to further demonstrate their strength, allowing the captain to make a final decision for the recruits.
"Number 3 and Number 8" Renji called out in no particular order. Two men stepped out into the fighting grounds and faced each other.
Renji nodded his head, and gave them the go to fight.
Miwa sat back against the bench with the other recruits, and looked towards the spar. She bounced and shifted on the balls of her feet waiting in anticipation at her number; while others were called up after their fight. Miwa saw familiar faces in the grounds, noting that they trained together back in the academy.
"Number 10 and 16!"
Miwa jumped when her number was called, and looked to see who was her opponent.
It was someone she was not familiar with. He was tall, standing at of 6'5, whereas Miwa was a small 5'4. But she thought nothing of it. A weakness can become strength.
Miwa shifted into a fighting stance eye narrowed. Her opponent mirrored her movement.
"Begin!"

'Kami what the fuck is that?'
Azami stared at the mountain of paperwork standing on the lieutenant desk. She whipped her head towards Rukia, who held a smug smirk of satisfaction.
"Are you a shitty lieutenant or something?" Azami asked bewildered.
Rukia flinched at the accusation, before her eye twitched in slight irritation. "It was delivered this morning, before I was about to begin I was rudely interrupted by a fight," Rukia explained pinning Azami with a stare.
"And now you're going to help me," Rukia stated the smirk back on her face.
Azami gapped in horror, her eyes moving back in forth between the smirking Rukia and the large–
Wait did the pile just grew!?
Rukia was already making her way towards her desk, and pulled chair in front of it. Motioning for Azami to sit at the empty spot.
Azami cursed profusely under her breath, before roughly sitting down on the seat. This was not how she wanted to spend her day. But nooooooooo she just had to start a fight. Her cursed her stupid idea.
Rukia looked at the recruit, mumbling and glaring at the mountain of paper. Okay, maybe she'd go easy on her.
She gave Azami half of the paperwork.

Hanae woke up feeling refresh. No more the days, she had to stress over passing her classes, nor worrying about graduating the academy. Those were awful times, Hanae thought as she shuddered.
She was a studious student, did her work without complaint. Followed the guidelines, and studied. She thought herself to be average when it came down to ability. But deep down, Hanae knew she dislike learning.
She did wonder why she signed up to be a shinigami. Sometimes it occurred to her that it was just a spontaneous moment to join. When she passed, she just stuck around. Beside there were benefit when you were a shinigami.
She did hope her reason for joining was qualifiable. She heard plenty of her peers boasting to be the strongest shinigami, gain captains rank, or even protect the people they love.
But Hanae wasn't any of them. Her reason for shinigami had no meaning. She had nobody to protect beside herself.
Hanae finish getting ready and made her way towards the dining hall. She had a small kitchen in her complex, but didn't have any cash on her. She blessed the Kami, that the dining hall allowed free food, three meals a day for shinigami's.
"Ida-san!"
Hanae turned around at the sound of the voice. She saw the lieutenant rushing at her with a pile of paperwork, looking a bit stress.
"Lieutenant Isa! Good morning!" She chirped smiling.
"Good morning, Ida-san! I'm so sorry for this suddenness. But may you please drop this off to Captain Kyouraku, I have other work to attend to at the moment," Nanao stated, handing Ida the paperwork, pushing up her glasses, and bidding Ida farewell.

"Eeeh?"

Ten minutes into the fight, Miwa was slammed down into the floor. She ignored the pain, and thrusted her foot up, into Kaoru's face, and swiftly moved out of his grip. She had attacked him first, using hakuda first, stopping his movement from drawing out his weapon.
Kaoru rubbed his face, and took the opportunity to drew out his sword. He smirked victoriously after realizing what Miwa's intentions were, and charged head on with his zanpakuto ready to strike.
He struck down with a powerful force, almost knocking Miwa back to her feet when she had time to strike back with her zanpakuto.
She kicked him in the gut, to add space between them, before charging forward. The two engaged in a dance between zanpakuto's.
The audience looked in awe at the two skills the new recruits possessed.
Renji looked at Miwa, eyes flashing with encouragement, internally as he rooted for Miwa.
Miwa saw an opening, and kicked his legs, immobilizing him and forcing him to kneel. Her zanpakuto swiftly sung at him, coming to an abrupt stop beneath his neck. Both of them panting heavily from the intense practice fight.
"Alright, break time," Renji shouted. "After this we will tell you your results."

'Paperwork is fuckin' hell'
Azami thought as she looked over her piece of paper before stamping the section for Rukia's behalf. Apparently, Rukia wasn't the type of mindlessly sign her name on the documents and called it a day. Nope. She was the exact opposite of that. Rukia read the whole document, thinking about the decision before approving the document or not.
"I don't see why you can't just approve all of these document," Azami grumble as she sluggishly stamped the paper with the giant red approved marked on it.
Rukia raised her eyebrowed at Azami. "No that would make me an irresponsible lieutenant," she stated. She finished the last of the paperwork before looking at Azami who hasn't even finished half on her.
Rukia sighed before talking half of Azami's and quickly finishing her work with efficiency.
"Now what have you learned today, new recruit." Rukia asked, after seeing the taller female attitude.
Azami scowled wondering if the lieutenant purposed called her 'new recuit'.
"Paper work is shit, that's what I learned," Azami answer truthfully scowling at the devils work called paperwork.
Rukai pinned her with a stare, definitely not the answer she was looking for. "And what did you learn if you don't ever want to do paperwork again?".
"Don't ever start shit again, unless I want punishment," Azami answered this time correctly.
Rukia smiled. "Good you're dismissed,".
Azami widened her eyes before smiling widely "Thank fuck!"
She stumbled out of her chair in a hurry before the lieutenant could change her mind, and quickly she went out the door with a wave and 'Thanks Lieutenant!'.
Rukia shook her head and finished the rest of the paperwork, before calling one of the member to deliver it to Captain Ukitake.

Hanae walked the various hallway in a panicked state. She had to deliver paperwork the lieutenant suddenly assigned her with, and failed to tell her where the captain's office is.
She had asked a few members wandering around, but most of them were new recruits like her. So chances they knew where Captains Kyouraku's office was, were little.
Hanae sighed in distressed.
It was going to be her first time meeting the captain one on one, and she was going to deliver his paperwork on a late notice. Goodness what if he thought she was an incompetent member and decided to kick her out of his division.
Hanae stood there for a while imagining the horrendous things the captain would think of her while comically crying in the vacant hallway.
"Aaah? My my what do we have here?" a lazy voice drawled out from above her.
"Eh..?" Hanae looked around her, spinning in a circle trying to find the source of the voice, but she found no one.
She tilted her head before murmuring "Am..I..imagining things now".
Shinsui Kyouraku was sitting above the veranda enjoying a bottle of sake, deciding her deserved a long break from paperwork. When the female recruit stopped right below him and started comically crying clearly distressed. He saw the paperwork in her hand and assumed she had to deliver them to him. Then assumed she must've been a new recruit if she didn't know where his office was.
Kyouraku smiled in amusement after hearing if his voice was an imagination.
"Up here~" He called out once more.
Hanae abruptly looked up and saw her captain smiling down at her in amusement.
Hanae shook herself out of her trance before fumbling in shame and embarrassment.
"K-kyouraku-Taichou! I-I'm deeply sorry sir! I had to deliver these paperwork for you, but my incompetence failed you sir!" Hanae apologized bowing down to a 90 degree angle.
Kyouraku widened his eyes at the excessive apology, realizing he had to say something before the girl would surely drown herself in shame.
"Maah it's okay!" he laughed. "Just set them down in my office, and you are good to go," reassuring the poor girl.
Hanae nodded her head vigorously before making her way to the captain office and neatly setting the pile of paperwork down.
She looked over to the Captain and saw him sill seated down at the same spot sipping on a cup of sake.
She made her way to the captain hoping she wasn't interrupting.
"K-kyouraku-Taichou Thank you and have day!" said smiling down at him before leaving.
Kyouraku blinked and blinked again after she left. He caught a good look at her face this time. Unique lilac hair framed her face, her eyes holding soft light brown hues to them. She was a beauty her admitted.
He felt a red blush fanning his face, before dismissing it as the alcohol in his system.
He raised his glass to the air, murmuring "Kampai[1]" and drinking to himself once more.
