Ukitake just stared at her with a near utter look of defeat on his face. This happened far more than he cared to account for in regards to this woman. Really, she'd be the death of him, at this rate. Perhaps literally.

"The couch is for consultations, Yoruichi, not your constant need for naps. Or pretending to nap. Or whatever it is you seem fit to do in my office." Really now.

[feline_covert_ops]

Hey, now. A little sleeping never killed anyone. Unless maybe they took something first. Or somebody broke into their room and knifed them. Not that she would know, or anything. Not like she'd ever killed anybody either way. Really.

She yawned elaborately before giving Ukitake an affected pout. "Oh, but couches are multi-purpose, Jyuushirou. And who says I don't do both?"

It wasn't her fault his office had a such a comfy couch.

"I'm pretty sure people start rumors over less," Ukitake sighed, moving further into the room to set down his work on the desk, giving a cursory look around the place. Seemed to be in order...

"At least you haven't raided my candy stash."

[feline_covert_ops]

That got a laugh out of her. Of course people started rumours over less. People were silly. And therefore entertaining.

"I'm sure you could do a lot worse in the rumour department than people thinking the two of us are up to some extracurricular activities in your office." Shame. She had none. And was that really such a terrible image to the man?

She pretended to look offended when he looked to see if she'd messed with anything. "I tell you, I am shocked that you think I would steal from an ailing old man."

Nevermind Ukitake was operating on precedent, here. It wasn't any fun to acknowledge that.

[sogyo_no_kotowari]

"First of all, it's the sort of rumor that can get the Professor's attention and I've had enough awkward talks with Charles to last me a life time. Second of all, you've done it before." The stealing candy part, he meant.

[feline_covert_ops]

"Charlie still drags you in for those?" Why yes she did just call the Professor 'Charlie.' What is this thing called being formal? "All right, all right. I'll stop."

No she wouldn't. But maybe she'd compromise and only curl up on his couch while she was a cat. As long as she remembered not to revert to human form, everything would be fine.

"My sources tell me that tunafish may just distract potential candy thieves. Might be an idea worth testing, you know." An impish grin here? You bet.

[sogyo_no_kotowari]

"Or at least make it known you're going to be in here and for what reason. When you just come here on a whim, it looks odd. Just as odd, in some eyes, as the mail slot full of love confessions from students I get every February. Or more." Which had been a thing even recently. Life was hard, okay?

"I guess I could get you a can of albacore every now and again, but it seems a bit silly seeing as you're perfectly capable of getting your own from the store."

[feline_covert_ops]

She glanced at him playfully. "You mean getting all that stuff in your mail isn't normal? Wow, the things you get used to."

Ukitake needed to remember who he was talking to, here. He wasn't the only teacher that got an overload of "admiration" from the students and faculty. It never seemed to stop. And she kept the really bad ones around for laughs.

Yoruichi finally sat up properly and shrugged. "I could also sleep in my own bed and get my own candy. But that's not as much fun."
