"As a matter of fact," you reply, "there was the little issue of that lovely phone call I got earlier."

"About that. No matter what we do, Naka hears none of it. NONE. She beat herself up something fierce over that last incident, and we don't need a.repeat of that."

"Agreed," you reply. "But what SHOULD we do?"

"Hell if I know," Goto snorts. "I'm a Navy man, not a movie detective."

"This is a political problem, at the heart of it, right?"

"Kind of. These clowns like what those politicians are selling, so they wash each other's backs."

"You mean scratch?" Hamp offers.

Goto scowls."Learn to speak english with almost no accent and they still give you lip over an idiom."

"Excellence first. Ain't that some bushido shit!" Hamp replies happily.

"So..." you think for a moment. "So we could embarrass them - drive a wedge between them, make one party abandon the other and weaken their power base."

"Easier said than done," Goto replies. "With things as tense as they are, the Nationalists are on an upswing - the entire reason they're a real problem rather than just another bad joke."

"Tense?" you reply. "Haven't we been kicking abyssal asses left, right and center?"

"Settle, the only point of comparison they have is the last war, which was lost in a series of successful battles," Goto retorts. "And then there's the economic impact. It takes heavy escort just to cross the Sea of Japan as of late - and more often than not we need the PLAN to help us with it." He sighs. "The nationalists are having a grand time with that; 'Silver Rice from Chinese plates'."

You frown. "Silver rice? Nobody's starving yet, Goto."

"Nobody should HAVE to," he corrects you. "But with the big hike in food prices the lower income families are living off ramen -the government offers other stuff, of course, but the mindset is, we are all in this together, we must do our part for Japan - so a lot of people are cutting it fine rather than ask for help." Goto looks troubled. "Its how Japanese show their patriotism - like how Americans give freely in crisis, Japanese take as little as possible."

"And the nationalists are painting this whole thing Chinese."

"Of fucking course they are! Stingy bastards with their massive navy can only escort 'so much' a month!? What a humiliation for Japan, for her people to suffer for Japan's military weakness. And so on."

"So how does this change things?" you ask.

"It means they've circled the wagons," Goto replies. "EVERYONE has. You try to divide them now, they'll double down."

"... so we have to discredit them all," you say at length. "The Yaks, their pet politicians, whatever."

"Get them by the balls," Goto says. "That's my vote. Take something they need and threaten to vaporize it."

"Anno..." Yamato says hesitantly. "Uh, what are you talking about?"

"Getting you into the fight, honey," you say.

"And making sure the Yaks wait the fuck you say," Goto says in surprise as he whips round to you.

"Hate made you a deal, didn't he?"

Yamato nods mutely.

"Well, he called in his Holy Nation to sort it out."

Yamato stares at you for a second - and then she squeals in utter delight. She leaps at you, wrapping you in a big soft hug and pecking you on the cheek before bouncing around the room with impressive gusto.

“Eeeeeee~” Yamato sing-songs. “Oh I have to get him something nice as a thank-you!”

“Hey,” you and Goto say at the same time, with the same mild bemusement. “We're the ones doing all the work!” Goto adds.

“But he's the one that came up with the idea for you to steal~” Yamato continues. “Oh I have to get him something nice to thank him - uh, Admiral Settle?”

“Yes?” you think, already weight a recommendation of Hickory Farms against latex truck balls.

“What's the Corporal's - I mean the Lieutenant’s real name?”

You *freeze.*

“I. Uh. Name. His name.”

“Mmhmm. For the dedication engraving.”

You feel sweat beading on your brow. “Uh, it's... Corporal. He likes that one.”

Yamato pouts, her pink blush and crossed arms devastatingly effective. “Admiral, please!”

“Don't you - don't you put that evil on me!”

“What's evil about it!?”

“Do you realize what he'd DO to me?”

“What's so bad about it!?” Yamato asks. “Come on, tell meee~”

“No goddamned way.”

“Tell meeeeeee~”

“Get him to whisper to it on his pillow!”

Yamato gives you an odd look. “You embroider on pillows, you don't whisper, silly. TELL MEEEEEE~”

Goto's chuckling at you two when his phone rings. He picks up quickly, and you hear him talking in Japanese. He switches to English after a few sentences. “Yes, Lance Corporal, I understand English perfectly fucking well, and I'm telling you to leave your fucking goon squad in the fucking hall. Do you fucking understand my fucking English?”

“... that's English?” Yamato says, blushing a bit deeper.

“More like Marine,” Hamp replies, “and he seems to be a fluent speaker, too!”

After Goto slams his phone onto the cradle again, the door behind you opens tentatively - and you get a glimpse of a frightened-looking girl with black bangs. She peeks around the doorframe so fast you scarce realized she was there - and then she comes stumbling out into full view when someone behind her gives her a hearty shove.

“... Shigure?” you ask.

Shigure gets a good look at you and immediately looks at the floor. Through the doorway behind her strides Jintsuu, throwing her arm around Shigure's shoulders and hugging her tight for support. “Hello~”

“Hey,” you say stupidly.

“Shiggy!” Yamato exclaims, jouncing over to rub her head. “Shiggy, I haven't seen you in forever!”

Shigure twitches like an electric shock went through her head. “... Shiggy?”

“Oh, do you not like that?” Yamato says apologetically. “Kongou calls you that and it kind of stuck.”

“... Kongou talks about me?”

“She noticed she hadn't seen you for a few days and went around the base calling for you,” Goto says dourly. “Like you were a lost cat or some goddamn thing.” He pantomines - “Shiiiiiiigyyyyy~ Shiiiiiigyyyy~” She even went and made instant ramen with dried shrimp and tried leaving it under a hamper with a stick propping it up.” He groans and rubs his face.

“That seems like a lot of forethought for Kongou,” Jintsuu says seriously.

“It is. Hiei suggested it, damn her eyes,” Goto mutters wearily.

“She... knows I like that?” Shigure says, sounding dazed.

“No, she just harassed Yuudachi till she spilled.”

“Harassed?”

“Yuudachi was kind of torn up about the whole, *thing,*” Goto clarifies. “Wasn't in the mood to talk. Kongou doesn't give a shit about anyone's mood, so.”

Shigure shuffles her feet back and forth awkwardly. “Admiral Goto...”

“Yes?”

“I... I want to help again.”

“How so?”

“I know you don't trust me to sortie, but, if you could give me work-”

“You don't know shit about how far I trust you, if you think that,” Goto says sternly. “I did hear how some Marine stopped you from suicide by holding himself hostage.”

Shigure flinches at the words, retreating into Jintsuu's embrace as tears begin to fill her eyes.

“I'm not good with big emotional speeches,” Goto says sternly. “I'm just a paperwork asshole. But by the paperwork, that's a pretty strong fucking statement of intent, to use Marine lingo. I don't think you're a danger to anyone but yourself.”

Shigure seems to calm at that - and to your surprise, she even nods a little bit.

“Here, sit down,” Goto gestures. “I want to talk to you about-” his phone rings again, and he sighs as he jabs the speakerphone button and leans forward to snarl into it. “Asshole, I thought I said-”

“Admiral Goto?”

The voice chisels through the line; cold and hard and precise enough to cut glass. You feel a thrill of alarm zip down your back, and both you and Hamp are on your feet before you quite know what you're doing. A step away from the chair, Shigure is shaking like a leaf, clinging to Jintsuu like a life preserver.

“This is the HMS Terror, speaking for the sea.”

Goto's eyes darken like white-hot steel plunged into the cold embrace of the quenching bath.

“It has come to my attention that you have one of my ships prisoner. You have one hour to decide if you are willing to negotiate for the release of the IJN Shigure.”

Shigure collapses as the flat, empty voice slithers over her, the strength in her legs failing completely. Jintsuu sinks to a crouch before she catches the terrified girl's weight, clinging to her and looking up at you with desperate confusion.

An awful silence stretches for several unreal heartbeats as the room seems to spin and sway around you, the adrenaline rush hitting your system like a narcotic.

“She already gave her life for Japan,” Goto says sharply, heat sizzling in his voice. “Now Japan will give lives for her.”

The statement hangs in air for half a heartbeat.

“We pay our debts.”

He punches another button and the call disconnects with a small, anti-climatic *click.*

“Now,” Goto says, settling back into his chair. “Where were we?”

On the one hand, the nickname's kind of clumsy. On the other, having someone actually be delighted to see her — least of all Yamato herself! — should do *wonders* for Shigure’s mental wellbeing. I hope.

>>44828568

It began with a dare.

She told you about it later, half-drunk and whooping with laughter. Hachi put her up to it--you should go ask the little singer girl for a tumble, she said. No matter what happened, it promised to be amusing.

It was. It was the funniest joke you'd ever heard.

Back then, you were just Naka. You sang and danced, to teach yourself how to act human. It was accepted, then, your "quirk." Every girl seemed to have one. In the night, you watched the most famous movies in history, learning dialogue, charisma, projection, sniffling with your arms wrapped around your knees at the slightest hint of an emotional scene.

You were hurrying back to your room for just such a movie when she approached you. She had sauntered up, spilling out of her bathing suit, her blue hair shimmering and cascading like the water she'd just emerged from. A sloppy, toothy grin you would come to adore was plastered over her face.

"Hey there, singer girl," she began, all sweetness and light. "Want me to show you some things 'under the sea?'"

You were still bitter, then, but there was no Settle or Wainwright or anyone at all. So you smiled, and you satisfied your bitterness with veiled insults, never noticed--who would question the quiet, earnest light cruiser?

"Gee, Miss," you'd replied, pouring the innocence syrupy-thick. "I don't think I'm rated for saltwater cave diving!"

Forgive me if this has already been touched upon in a previous thread, but...

Has anyone realized that it is highly possible, if not probable, if the Abyssals are tapping into the multitude of undersea information cables? Which means that they can snoop in on the internet and such?

Just a thought.

You knew she was different when her expression fell--just for a moment, in unquestionable recognition--and then her grin came back even wider.

"Wait, was that an insult?" she asked, taken aback.

"Insult?" you'd parroted back, just as airy and dainty as you please.

"Oh my god, it was! Ha ha, you're a BITCH!" she exclaimed, eyes twinkling. "That's HILARIOUS!"

She'd smoothed down her bathing suit, unintentionally drawing your eye to the heft of her chest (the like you'd never have). The lack of intent gave it an appeal her initial offer hadn't. "Let me start again," she said. "I'm Iku. I usually prefer bourbon, but I'm willing to buy and try whatever it is you like."

"...One drink," you'd replied.

Before Wainwright, before Settle, before even Jintsuu, there was Iku. She was the first one who understood you.

She was the first one you hurt.

You got along instantly and famously.

The first night was spent drinking and laughing. Beneath the lusty exterior, she was brilliant--the most intelligent person you've met before or since. Overly-familiar, a bit touchy, very clingy--but when you said anything, she respected your boundaries.

A week later, on your second date, she nearly had you, but you'd gotten nervous and she immediately backed off.

...You were very curious, though.

"Sorry," you'd muttered, cheeks red, muffled by her pillow.

"It's okay," she said. "Really. Not like I haven't taken care of myself before."

You sat up. "Can you," you stammered. "Can you show me?"

Your back hit the mattress on your third night, without a care or a regret in the world. "Good girls," being chaste and pure, was just one more punchline in the great joke.

The whole world was a great big joke, and only the two of you were in on it together. You'd laughed that night. Sighed. Gasped, moaned. Neither of you wanted to stop. You were late to a training drill, and Iku had to be dragged out of bed by Hachi.

You caught on quick. A month later found her writhing underneath you as you showed her what you'd learned.

"Tell me your name, pretty thing," you'd purred, pushing in for the kill.

"I-KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

The two of you were compatible on every level--two minds that had never really found their like before now. She explored every topic she could find--mathematics, science, rocketry, radar, gardening. She was genuinely enthusiastic about your singing--pushed you to study choreography, lighting, color theory, set and costume design, pyrotechnics. She helped you develop your best routines.

But more than that, you could be yourselves around each other. You were Iku's caged songbird, and she was the hand pulling you out of the cage. Through mirth and melancholy, Iku was there, comforting you in your lows, spurring you further in your highs.

You drifted off to sleep in her arms, as you had so many times, exhausted in the best possible way.

"No one's ever understood me like you do," you murmured into her lips, basking in warmth.

It ended just as quickly as it began.

Iku was waiting for you the moment you returned from Hachijō-jima.

"Don't lie to me, Naka!" she said, voice raised and eyes teary. "I know what I saw!"

"It's not--you're wrong, okay? You're just wrong."

She slapped the battered printout in her hand again. "The angle of approach, your wake, the SPEED--"

"Iku. Iku! Stop! I wasn't trying--"

"YOU WERE!" Iku screamed, anger and misery in equal doses. "YOU WERE TRYING TO KILL YOURSELF!"

You were, of course. But you weren't ready to admit it, not even to yourself. It took months before you could. At the time, all you felt was a growing frustration--like someone who understands something but can't explain it. Like you had to do what you had done, and now you were being punished for it.

And as your eyes fell to the still of yourself taking on that abyssal cruiser, a crushing surety that you'd let Iku get too close. She was too far in.

For her own good, you told yourself, you broke it off. So you wouldn't hurt her again.

Hearing her crying and watching her duck and run every time she passed you in the halls, though, you were pretty sure you did.

>No Yamashiro cause she sacrificed herself to cover Shigure escaped at the Battle of Surgo Straits.

That's certainly one way to interpret that battle. Alternatively:

In fact, neither destroyer was in position. YAMAGUMO had blown up sunk, and at this moment, SHIGURE was on her way south, seemingly leaving the battle. In reality, SHIGURE's LtCdr. Nishino was attempting to determine the condition and whereabouts of the YAMASHIRO, which he assumed had been the battleship that had dropped out. Not realizing the flagship was the remaining BB, Nishino reversed course, and at 0327 passed YAMASHIRO on an opposite course, and then MOGAMI two minutes later. Nishino testified later that he was seeking to possibly transfer BatDiv 2's flag if necessary. For this purpose SHIGURE continued south for a time, but 0330 he thought better of it and reversed course again to resume the advance north. Ironically, he had approached to within 5,200 yards of the stricken FUSO, and a lookout reported sighting what appeared to be a battleship, but now offered no aid. It was not to be the last time that SHIGURE ignored a comrade!

>>44829649
Allow me to more precisely state my feelings on this then.
I really enjoy how you can manage to write in that special way that draws people into having genuine emotions about the writing in question.
But now I think that the quality these characters had, of being somewhat likeable, and very unlikeable, has now mostly just become straight up hateful, without anything to be sympathized with.
But then again, that might be just me, or that might just be the whole point.
I'm not very good at critique, I think, so sorry about that.

At just after 0350, enemy heavy gunfire finally opened on YAMASHIRO (It was actually 0351 for Oldendorf's cruisers, the BBs opening up two minutes later at 0353). According to Izaki Sato, the shooting was good, with the enemy scoring hits on the first salvos around the pagoda that started a fire near the bridge. YAMASHIRO returned fire with No.1 and No.2 main turrets, and the battle was on. During this time, situation of friendly units was uncertain, but this did not matter. However, the SHIGURE was by now thoroughly confused, having taken the YAMASHIRO for the FUSO and vice-versa. Her skipper Nishino Shigeru continued to vainly hail the "FUSO", with no reply. However, to the War College it seems likely that YAMASHIRO heard SHIGURE's chatter and took it as a reassurance that FUSO and SHIGURE were following at a distance behind.

It's not fair that the Abyssals get all the cool abilities.

While it's always nice that we have overwhelming numbers, industrial power, and destructive power that will eventually grind the Abyssals to dust, it would be nice if our normal ship girls could be upgraded somehow to even the odds on a more personal level.

>>44829825
Well, I can try.
The way I see Erebus is a very single minded person, who has doubts, but crushes them beneath the weight of her stubborn devotion to her beliefs.
She has a lot of love for her sister ship, but isn't really willing to subvert her.
She's cold-blooded when it comes to humans and the shipgirls, as evidenced by how easily she kills them off, and how quickly shes willing to just turn Buchanan into a bomb and be done with her, but then, while bombing a town, she cries in grief and rage about how humanity didn't know better, which seems almost childish.
So, a strangely childish, stubborn, cold blooded person with a soft spot for just one other, seems to be the summary I get of her and her behaviors, just from a few minutes of reflecting on it.

>>
>>44830022
Thank you for sharing! That sounds fairly close to what I'm aiming at; you'll see more in part five, when it manifests. I will say this though: Erebus isn't drowning her doubts in belief. It's just...easier to be angry, to give in to the hate, than it is to face her problems.
>>
>>44830062
From what I got, it's not that she has some moral obligation, it's that she'd rather just be slaughtering them.
I get where your coming from though, what with her crew having starved to death, so maybe that might be part of it.
>>44830068
I'm glad you got something out of what I had to say then, and I'm glad I got so close to the mark.
I'll definitely continue reading, and not just to see them get their comeuppence.

>>44830068
I'm not sure how to feel about Terror's casual use of her song after wandering into town. Considering how careless she is with modern norms, I'm hoping this comes back to bite her in the tail vis-a-vis security cameras or whatnot.

no you fucking faggot it did not routelock shit.

Here's a thing.
YES, there's people that have innate chemistry and understanding of each other. THEY MIGHT EVEN BE (literal, blood-related) FAMILY. DO YOU FUCK YOUR FAMILY? NO
They'll be your best friends ever but you don't necessarily form ROMANTIC attachments with such a person.
Sometimes you don't even WANT that, for various reasons.

Meanwhile . This, too, is a great opportunity to hook up. People in stressful jobs need a place to unwind, and a supportive partner is great for that.
THIS COULD ALSO BE A FRIEND.

>The Director of Naval Gunnery was particularly pungent in his assessment of the design, "The functions and requirements of carriers and of surface gun platforms are entirely incompatible ...the conceptions of these designs ...is evidently the result of an unresolved contest between a conscious acceptance of aircraft and a subconscious desire for a 1914 Fleet ...these abortions are the results of a psychological maladjustment."

Well son of a crap, I think the Abyssals are stepping their game up.

We need to hit back. These attacks and starvation are going to kill Japan, to say nothing of Britain! Plus... Fuck, ONE ship can kill a small town. What the hell even is this war? At this rate, we're going to bleed to death by a thousand cuts and it's going to be slow and PAINFUL.

Also, trying to get Harder? Hit Em Again Harder? Yeah, good fucking luck. That isn't Naka you're trying there. He's a sub and you're underwater. Do the math.

Occasionally I cackle at something that heralds hilariously hard times in the future for someone, as a result of his own actions. Like >>44829465 here! Oh this is gonna be FUN.

It's amazing just how many boatbitches Settle gets wet just by flashing a sword around some. Must be a martial Japanese thing.

Still waiting on that Australian ship we got promised months and months ago....you said we'd get one Planefag. HMAS Perth is a good ship...

Great thread today, goto got to show off and Yamato got to tell settle that he's an idiot.
