Idea: I think it's time to move COmbat from Commanding Division to open the Gotei up to more types. Not everyone is a kido user or a stealth person so our current set up is a bit limited. Like I want to put Tatsuya in but he really doesn't fit a commanding role at present. So being in a branch that represents both makes little sense. I think if you focus on the core of just fighting and these acting as a front line sort of unit. Similar to how eleven used to act back in the day. I don't think this takes away from Ibiki either, some head captains like her have been a thing. I just think it's time to give the Gote a nudge as this will open us up for more shinigami who don't fit that mold. Anyways said my peace dice has been rolled. Note: I have no interest in Tatsuya being a Captain, I just want him to be in a place he belongs before that's brought up.

Gotei United Sign up Sheet
Character Name: Dhalia Crush
Character App: Crush
Gotei Position: Division 5 | General Member
Reasoning: Dhalia was inspired at a younger age to join the Shinigami. The Captain of Squad 5 nursed her back to health after an unfortunate event in the Rukongai, and she has vowed a life debt to Henrex.

Gotei United Sign up Sheet
Character Name: Tatsuya Oda
Character App: https://www.platinumhearts.net/t19005-oda-tatsuya-approved-1-3-shinigami
Gotei Position: Third Division Captain Rank
Reasoning: Tatsuya is an innovative man but doesn't have the skills but he does have the ideas. With training he could be better, his status as an older shinigami with skills was something many found useful. But his days on the battlefield have left him as sort of a strange man among his people who believes in unconventional methods.

[adm]It's been discussed with staff, and Shizuo has stated that he mistakenly approved Tatsuya for Research Captain, thinking you were applying Tsubasa, who often invested himself in research and tech development. In light of this being a mistake, as well as several points making Tatsuya unqualified for being the 3rd Division Captain, the approval will be revoked; however, Frost has said that it would be perfectly fine if he joined the Gotei in some other role (and probably some other division if you ask me).

You can talk to any of us on why this decision is being made, but here are the largest factors

Tatsuya is horribly ill-equipped for anything regarding technology and research. Many times in his application, he's stated to have insufficient understanding of any and all tech Tsubasa has given him, at most knowing generally what they do and how to use them.
Tatsuya has no vestments in the Gotei, his connections to them at most being Damien, Tsubasa, the Unabara Clan in general, Angel, and Kuro, the latter two being very recent.
He has otherwise never participated in the Gotei, been trained by them, been recognised as a leadership-level character, and all in all has not even largely partook in the culture and society even around Seireitei.
His largest connection to the Gotei is Tsubasa, who admittedly was the Captain Commander twice, which gives Tatsuya some credibility, but at the same time Tsubasa left the Gotei, twice in a bad manner, the first in bad hands, the second in no hands. So that credibility by association isn't very strong.
While it's fine for him to join the Gotei despite all the prior listed information, he still have very little reason--to no reason besides personal power--to be a captain at all, let alone in a division he has little experience in. There would likely be an exception if he was directly instated by Ibiki, as she ultimately has full and incontestable authority over the Gotei, but that was not what happened, and Ibiki doesn't even know Tatsuya yet.

All these things in mind, I'm sure after some work and dedicated effort to the Gotei, familiarising Tatsuya with the organisation and its members overtime would do well to rise him to Captaincy. Up until that point, he's not yet ready for the position.[/adm]

Gotei United Sign up Sheet
Character Name: Magnolia Everfrost
Character App: https://www.platinumhearts.net/t16792-animum-s-sacadila-magnolia-everfrost-semi-approved-0-3-sealed-0-2-bankai-0-2-in-shikokai
Gotei Position: Stealth Corps or fourth division. (any spots wanted.)

Reasoning: Magnolia originally came here because she was from the inverse realm. However she has explored the soul society, meeting henrex, or had instances of conversation with shunsui. However one of the things she has learned most during her time in the soul society is this-- she wishes to protect this realm.

Logically magnolia has huge drive to protect, and has the skills, power, and means to back up this need to protect the realm. She certainly isn't research division, but she has such a breadth of knowledge that she is capable of giving as a benefit to the organization that i think she would be a great fit in any combat, or realm enforcement or even stealth position.

Ultimately though because her mindset is protect the realm, she isn't really choosy on where she goes, or what she does--so long as she is able to do the goals that are set before her? She will be fine. So the TLDR is, i would think based on IC interaction she'd do best in either of the squads aforementioned in my preference, but if she's put in 1 division, or any other division because that is where she can be best served? That will be fine, because ultimately she is still fulfilling her purpose.
