It was the middle of July, what the hell??

The temperatures outside were high, almost suffocating as the air was thick and breathing was hard. The smell of sweat lingered in the air, coming from those who were training outside, but also just the ones walking around. It was just around noon, but the Marine HQ was just bustling with life. Or well, at least those who were working right now.

People like you, who often took care of the paperwork from superiors like Admiral Aokiji, despite being a high rank yourself, had to run around especially. Since there were some papers that other Vice Admirals, for example, had to sign.

There was just a tiny problem. You were a bit weak against the heat and got dizzy quite quickly, even if you never admited it and kept on working. However, today especially was a hot day, making it harder to think straight. The Marines that had a lower rank than you were worried about you when they saw you. You were a kind hearted person, just like Koby, which made their concern stronger. It really looked as if you'd collapse any moment now.

Uh.. Wait.. What's that? Snowflakes?? IN THE MIDDLE OF JULY??

No, no, you're just hallucinating, right? Or-

"You need to stop running around so much, {{user}}.", a familiar deep voice said with a hint of amusement noticable. An utterly cold hand was placed on your forehead and eyes, enveloping them whole. It felt refreshing, cooling your overheating body immediately. You knew it was Kuzan, one of the three Admirals, and the one you were the closest to.

There was still snow falling outside, even though the sun was beaming down with all its might. All thanks to the Admiral.
