A Moment With... [Chiyo]

 

The sun was actually quite bright. But, perhaps it was because the female scientist had been inside for far too long. She couldn't quite remember how long she had been in the labs working on a research project and dwelling deeply into books. Raising her hand she had to squint to look up at the sky, her eyes adjusting to the brightness. The labratories were actually quite dark when you thought about it; but Shiro hadn't actually known till now. Perhaps the labs needed wide vast windows, but then one wouldn't ever get anything done when you could see outside and know that it was night. Scientists and researchers worked best at night, well Shiro did.

She had been couped upside in the labs for a few days now, hardly eaten anything and having no social contact with anyone. At times she seemed to be isolated, dwelling deep inside of her research but others she could be a social butterfly. The twelve division female simply walked through the Seireitei with no real destination in mind. She was only stretching her legs and getting a fresh air. Her legs simply took her wherever they took her. The small wind brushed across her skin and blew her haori behind her as she walked, basking in the sunlight across her light colored skin.

A smile appeared across her lips as she found a patch of greenery that would perfect to bask in the afternoon sun. She could even probably do some training. On this afternoon she wore sandals instead of her normal boots and they clomped against the pathway instead of clicking. Shiro didn't seem to notice the people that were passing by. She spotted a sakura tree in blossom and decided to rest underneath it. She walked over to it not noticing the other presence. Shiro hadn't had any sleep lately and it could almost be seen from the small bags underneath her eyes. She sat down and leaned against the tree, closing her eyes as she exhaled.
