Four small, single room, free standing buildings; one near each of the gates of the Second Division, facing in each of the four cardinal directions and thus the direction of the four other divisions and the southern Seireitei wall gate. They sit opposite of the similarly built guard stations. Messages, whether from hell butterflies or human runners are sent here, and a personal runner of the Second Division carries them inside to the intended recipient.

Note: All messages for the Second Division or Second Division members should be posted here.

A runner sporting the Third Division color arrives, leaving a message from the Third Division.

The Third Division is under a brief lock-down as ordered by the Fukutaicho Natsukoi Sumie due to minor set-backs, as the division need time to rebound from these inconveniences.

By hand of a Third Division runner, a new message for the entire division shortly followed after the notice given by the Third Seat, Tenba Gensou. However, the runner also carried a message that would be for Harupia's eyes only.

SPOILER: Click to show

The Third Division is no longer under lockdown; clean up is complete and minor repairs will be done over the next few days. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the short closed period.

At your earliest convenience, I would like to meet for a lunch date. Please send me the time and location of your preference if you agree.

Natsukoi Sumie; Third Division Fukutaichou

The impetus of his protracted gallop driving him forward, a messenger from the Third Division arrives from the afflicted district to communicate his Taichou's notice:

SPOILER: Click to show

In light of today's events, the Third Division hereby requests the individual reports of every Shinigami to have participated in the efforts to control the epidemic.

Kindly refrain from releasing any of the residents brought in for medical attention. It is Saikokui-Taichou's intention to interrogate them upon their return to health.

The harried messenger sent to the Fourth Division would return wringing his hands, unsure of how his Taicho might respond to Kiba-Taicho's answer... but, an order was an order, and a messenger must deliver his messages. Approaching Harupia's office, the messenger would knock twice before entering, bow, then repeat what he'd been told.

SPOILER: Click to show

"Harupia-Taicho, the child is currently in the presence of the Fourth Division Taicho, who says the situation is well in hand, and that he will escort her when they have finished their visitation."

With that, the messenger grimaced before rushing to resume his duties, or failing that, to find duties to resume.

One member of the fifth division was tasked with delivering a message to the second division, dropping the letter off in hopes it would quickly reach the eyes of the Nibantai-taichou.

Hitoshi-Taichou,

I'm sorry for the inconvenience of a late response, but I am relieved to hear of your success in finding the missing patient. Had I not delayed and instead acted right away, I would have sent a letter earlier and aided you in your search. Again, I deeply apologize, but am joyful for the good news. 

Sincerely,
Tachibana-Taichou

The note arrived in the Second Division. Moments earlier a fairly burly Rukon had presented the piece of paper to the guards at one of the gates to the walled city.

To whomever of the Second Division it may concern.

In the aftermath of the occurrence in the Autumn of the previous year in the Third District, where that morning an invasion of creatures who required cranial trauma to neutralise and whose bodily fluids caused immediate paralysis of the victim, I happened across a young Rukon girl, severely injured. I personally left said child in the care of your Taichou.

Alas, though she remains a complete stranger to me, curiosity has gotten the better of me, so I wish to inquire as to her fate, whether or not she has recovered from her injuries.

I'm afraid I do not have a name to give to the child, though I can say that when I found her, she was wearing an outfit which resembled that of a cat.

If you can identify this patient, please send news of her to me. The messenger should be able to tell you my current locale.

Yours faithfully,
Y. Watson

Harupia did recive the message, though a bit belatedly. Partily becsaue this particualr messanger saw Rukon messeges as of lesser importance (for which he recived a solid bop in the noggin) partily because of the question of the message. A topic Harupia was not fond of...still,an anwser was made, and a messanger was sent into the Rukongai, ready to deliver the reply

A sleek blonde man, clad in the garb of the First arrived in the Second Divison. From his post bag he handed the Shinigami on duty a sealed envelope, addressed to their Taichou.
