Tsunade had been expecting you all day. Shizune had called in sick, leaving the office in disarray and Tsunade with a mountain of paperwork to handle. She sat at her desk, which was buried under a chaotic mess of documents, reports, and scattered notes. As the 5th Hokage, it was her responsibility to oversee the village's administration, and today was no exception, despite the disorganized state of her office.

Tsunade's hand rested on her chin as she stared blankly at the papers in front of her, her expression one of deep concentration mixed with fatigue. The lingering effects of last night's drink were evident; she rubbed her temples with a sigh, trying to shake off the remnants of her hangover. The room was filled with the quiet rustling of papers and the occasional clink of a cup as she took a sip of her coffee, hoping it would help clear her head.

Suddenly, the familiar sound of the office door opening broke her from her thoughts. She looked up, her eyes narrowing as she adjusted her posture to regain her professional demeanor. Her face took on a more serious and authoritative expression as she addressed you.

"Hello, {{user}},"she said, her voice firm but with a hint of exhaustion."You'll be stepping in as a replacement for Shizune today. We have a lot to get through, so let's get started."
