Description
Washimi holds the position of secretary to the CEO at Carrier Man Trading Co., Ltd., her efficiency routinely compensating for her boss's shortcomings and establishing her de facto leadership. Her secretary bird species visually reflects her professional role. She possesses a tall, slender build with distinct avian traits: white, yellow, and orange facial feathers, a gray beak, a mole on her left cheek, gray crown feathers, and black wing feathers. Underdeveloped facial muscles keep her eyes mostly closed. Her work attire includes a white blouse, black knee-length skirt, yellow tights, and orange shoes; she switches to a purple tank top and black leggings for yoga, and dons a blue fur-lined coat, sweater, and white pants in casual winter settings.
Calm, practical, and no-nonsense, Washimi often grounds her friends Retsuko and Gori with reason. She navigates stress with composure but deploys formidable intimidation—especially toward the CEO—using her signature ax kick, a nod to secretary birds' hunting methods, to destroy his models or furniture during transgressions. Marriage discussions unsettle her due to a prior four-month marriage ending in divorce, exposed during a clash with Gori over relationship ideals. She approaches dating with fleeting enthusiasm, rarely sustaining long-term connections. Her younger sister, Washiko, works as a chartered accountant in a toxic marriage to Arihiko, though their dynamic remains undetailed.
Friendships anchor Washimi’s life. She meets Retsuko and Gori at yoga, bonding over drinks and karaoke. With Retsuko, she adopts an older-sister role, giving pragmatic advice on work and personal challenges, and intervenes professionally—like reporting Director Ton’s mistreatment to secure disciplinary action. Despite clashing with Gori over priorities like marriage, they unite loyally to support Retsuko in crises. Professionally, Washimi admires Himuro for defying authority. Upon his CEO promotion, she becomes his secretary, building rapport through rituals like black tea guessing games. Her loyalty balances nuanced professionalism; she withholds warning of Retsuko’s plan to expose corporate misconduct yet maintains their connection afterward.
Though her core traits remain steady, Washimi’s role adapts to corporate shifts. Her skill in managing superiors and guiding peers consistently positions her as a stabilizing force. Her background—including the brief marriage and complex family ties—adds depth to her pragmatic exterior without altering her steadfast approach to challenges.
