While Maka and them do normally treat their missions with severity, they also don't always. From what I've read past few days, there has been times when Maka and them also haven't treated them seriously. Though for different reasons, like just being entirely distracted and not thinking about the mission. Kid also had his Symmetry attacks here and there. Not to mention the disobeying orders countless times.

	While they are technically a military group, they are also treated as students while at the school. They aren't treated like military cadets. Also technically most of their missions they pick out themselves from the board of missions, so most of them are extra credit. Except for the urgent ones handed down by Death. Otherwise they essentially have regular classes mixed in with proper Meister and Weapon classes. At least that's what I've gotten so far from reading the manga. still need to finish it.

	Also Kouki I wanted to ask if you could draw up a picture for my weapon character like you did for loki, if you have time that is.
