MINUTES

5.22am: The bi-annual meeting of the Sixth Division Seated Officers commences. The meeting is headed by Kuchiki-taichou and minutes will be taken by Abarai-fukutaichou, who will temporarily be our secretary. The secretary tries to run out of the room but gets pulled back by the chairperson of the meeting.

5.24am: Peace is restored. Abarai-fukutaichou begrudgingly takes the clipboard.

5.25am: Some low-ranked officer asks why this is taking place before the sun rises. Long silence ensues.

5.30am: Kuchiki-taichou asks whether anybody has any issues to be resolved. Long silence once again.

5.38am: Same low-ranked officer repeats question. He is ignored. Silence once more.

5.40am: Kuchiki-taichou asks whether anybody has any other issues to be resolved. He then leans over to check on minutes. An indescribable look crosses his face. For details' sake I will draw it out, Taichou please keep st—

5.41am: Kuchiki-taichou requests that the secretary, Abarai-fukutaichou, take the minutes properly. He then brings the one-sided discussion back on track.

5.50am: After a prolonged silence, some other low-ranked officer asks about our declining numbers of Hell Butterflies.

5.51am: Kuchiki-taichou looks at the minutes once again and asks the Secretary why he does not know the names of his fifteenth-seat and eighth-seat officers. Secretary curses and threatens to cast kidou.

5.52am: Kuchiki-taichou ignores the mumbling Secretary and proceeds to address the problem at hand. Some other officer suggests that a new post be given to Rikichi.

5.54am: Fourth-seat declares that Rikichi has messed up on every job he was assigned in the past. Fifth-seat informs congregation that there no longer are any job posts left for Rikichi.

5.55am: A very long silence as everyone contemplates a new job for Rikichi.

6.13am: An officer suggests that if Rikichi gets an office job, there should be nothing to fear.

6.14am: An immense expression of fear washes over everyone's faces. Secretary drops ink brush. Kuchiki-taichou's eyebrows knit together in a very comical way.

6.16am: The subject is dropped. Secretary drops clipboard. Kuchiki-taichou accuses the Secretary of doing it on purpose. Secretary denies. Officers watch with bemused faces. Kuchiki-taichou and the Secretary are not pleased.

6.17am: Cold War begins. Secretary refuses point-blank to take any more minutes.

AWAS

An array of inappropriate doodles spread over the rest of the paper. The Sixth Division (excluding the Secretary/Fukutaichou) is very sorry for all profanities and other unmentionable subjects that appear within these minutes. Doodles continue to the next page.

6.57am: Kuchiki-taichou dismisses the officers, snatches the clipboard out of Abarai-fukutaichou's hands and hits him viciously over the head with it.

6.58am: On the way out, someone comments that the sun has yet to rise.
