She had not been sure how it would be possible to feel any more anxious about her new position - going so far as to deliberate on what might be more intimidating than to be assigned the Third Seat of the Tenth, under Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya - she never once thought it within the realm of possibility, that she would share the seat with another. One who had been in the position, for quite some time. She closed her eyes, and took a deep breath - to bolster her resolve - before entering what was to become her office.
It’s gonna go great, or it will be a complete horror show. Either way, you can’t stand in the damn hallway forever. Move your ass, Ryoko.
She opened her eyes, and squared her shoulders - and strode with false confidence through the open doorway - to stand at the midpoint between the two desks that occupied the space, her hands balled up at her sides. Quietly, she cleared her throat before speaking.
“Uh....Hi? I’m...Takahara. Ryoko Takahara.” She swallowed hard, to clear the nervous lump that had developed in her throat, “I guess I’m...your new partner?”
