Shinobu's assignment ended just in time for some ridiculous scandal or other. Did a noble do something? Does she care? By the time she actually gets wind of any interesting details, she's too buried in paperwork to do anything about it. Ugh. She'll find out once she escapes office-work Hell.
She's managed to finish up the necessary red tape - and fended off another squad member's attempts to foist their paperwork onto her - by the time she hears a knock on the door. There's no need to answer it; a moment later, Issui lets herself in, as usual. The over-the-top grim formality of Issui's greeting earns a small, quiet snort.
"Afternoon, Yanagi," Shinobu bows in response, though considerably shallower, before straightening up and squaring her shoulders. The formalities more or less end abruptly there - Shinobu immediately rounds her desk. It's only a matter of time before someone else tries to get her to shoulder their work, now that she's done with hers for the day, after all. "Let's get outta here. We have things to discuss."
