Hayashimo is even worse; she's being tended to constantly by a damage control team and Mustin has taken her under tow. It's a race against time now to get as far away from Iwo Jima as possible before follow-up air attacks arrive to pick off the cripples. Goto was tempted to make for Chichi-Jima to beach your two badly-wounded girls, considering the incoming F-2 CAP and the shattered runways at Iwo Jima, but you reminded him that the fucking abyssal shouldn't have been able to capture the island overnight at all, much less move an entire armada of attack planes onto it and make it operational. They don't play by the rules, and never have – no sense in giving them any more cheap shots.

Admiral Thomas seems to agree, since he got SAC on the horn two hours ago with AFGSC to whistle up some B-52s forward-deployed at Guam. Within hours, Iwo Jima is going to return to its natural state – a smoking rock in the ocean with scant trace of human habitation.

The ongoing litany of battle-damage and unit effectiveness is starting to blur before you, your hasty chicken-scratches blurring together even as you sketch them. You rub at your eyes miserably, and check your watch – it's only 3PM, for Christ-sakes. You did get *some* sleep, after all. Reaching for your coffee, you discover it empty – and Hate stalking away with a carafe that looks a bit fuller than it was.

Motherfucker. You knock the empty paper cup off the table spitefully and put down for Hornet: “Source of torpedo – presumed free-run from ditched Abyssal bomber. MORE BAD LUCK,” you finish in block letters and fling the pencil at the desk, too frayed to continue at the moment.

“I thought the fashion was to crumple it in your hand?” Naka asks, setting a fresh paper cup of coffee down by your elbow. You snatch it up and drain the too-hot liquid eagerly, happy to look away from your papers for a moment. “Thanks, hon.”

“Hon yourself,” Naka says with a sniff. “I don't rate a cup-crusher?”

You squint at her. “Are we talking Jaws or that professional asshole of memetic fame?”

She winks. “Both, if it makes me seem smarter.”

“Uhhuh,” you mumble into your cup as you drain it again, too strung out to hold up your end of the repartee.

“Sourcing all the attacks?”

“Yuh,” you confirm drearily. “Who got hit by what, fired from whom.”

Naka picks it up. “The F-18 was hit by friendly fire?”

“That's what you get when you dive into your own AA fire,” you say with a shrug. “An ESSM's blast-frag warhead is equal-opportunity. Course if he hadn't, we'd probably have Akagi on that list too.”

She frowns. “You going to do one for all our shots, too?”

You sigh. “Oh, right, that's what I was forgetting. Maybe I can delegate that to you?” you say hopefully.

Naka sets the list down. “Well, I know where to start – that explosion in the enemy convoy wasn't a Long Lance. I've fired enough of them, I should know. Wasn't big enough.”

“The sub-launched ones a-”

“Settle, *please,*” Naka says, not bothering to scold you further for lecturing an IJN warship on weapons of the IJN. “That was a Mark-14 if it was anything.”

“Well, maybe-”

“Which means he had to be inside the convoy, much less the escort screen. And nailed it with almost the full spread, which means he was even closer.” She fixes you with a direct, somber gaze – no winks, no v-fingers, no manufactured persona that usually slips out so naturally it fools even you. “Admiral, where's the manlet?”

My good fellows, I think we have the birth of a new naval doctrine right here.

"Somewhere during this period, I came across another small, telling anecdote that reveals more about the spirit of the destroyer’s crew. After the bombing in the Flores Sea, USS Houston lost not only her number three turret, cold storage locker, and crew’s head as well as three searchlights and two motor launches; her laundry was also destroyed. At that point the men of USS Edsall volunteered to provide laundry service for the cruiser. Bob Fulton told me that the last time he saw Edsall was when his clothes were being lowered over the port side of Houston’s quarterdeck to the destroyer. As he put it, “I don’t know where that brave ship is today, but wherever she is, my clothes are still aboard.”"

Because it's traumatic and potentially lethal to switch from ship to slut when you have heavy damage. See: Naka

"On the morning of September 20, 1939, Edsall was anchored off Zamboanga Island. A storm had blown through overnight and the ship’s anchor dragged. But her crew and commander should not have had to worry because of “the tremendous strength of the chains issued on destroyers,” which was proverbial. “A destroyer captain need have no fear of one parting. Even if he should deliberately try to break one, he will find it quite a job.”
The destroyer got under way at 0800 hours and steamed for six hours past the Bolods to another anchorage close to Marongas Island, off Jolo. In the course of this journey, the headstrong flushdecker suffered a casualty: “Chain broken at bending on shackle, resulting in loss of anchor.”"

More mechanical = Injuries won't bleed further or get complicated

More "human" = Injuries bleed, get infected, shock, etc

So when you have severely injured sluts it's a bad idea to get them back to human. I mean, Arizona partially did, but she wasn't in too bad a shape anyway, except for the live round.

Hey.
Hey guys.
Remember how planefag was being spooky about that abyssal sub we heli-dropped a torpedo onto?
I'm pretty sure she isn't quite dead.
The Mk 46 has a much smaller warhead than the Mk 48- if we consider the Leveling Effect and the Mk 14, the Mk 46 is more akin to a Hedgehog charge than anything else.
And it was absolutely possible for a submarine to survive a single Hedgehog impact- see U-853, who suffered a single hedgehog strike and then spent 16 hours on the bottom with her crew alive until we finally fucking finished her off.
Side note, if U-853 comes back as a girl she needs a damn hug
But yeah, that sub is probably crippled but she'll be back

No still but Roberts did have an ice cream machine that they stole from somewhere before shipping out.

[x ] Frankly? In enemy territory. We reviewed the footage and decided that there's no way he escaped the attacks we saw without getting his hull rung good a few times – he's probably got hull and/or engine damage, and that abyssal task force is still close to him, so he won't risk radio messages. We might not know his status for a while.

Taffy 3 were destroyers, destroyer escorts, and escort carriers which were little better than merchant ships with flight decks.

They'd all be around her size so she'd most likely put them in a chokehold and drag them back to base.

Except that was when the Abyssals were at a point of strength.

The most likely course will be a long string of eldrich curse words on how next time it'll be different.

Really bombing Iwo seems to be a bad idea.
Iwo can't exactly just vanish into the sea like actual Abyssal ships.

Right now we literally have whatever is on her trapped.

We can constantly patrol around the island with planes, keep her main airfields constantly under repair and then send in Marines to storm the place once more.

If there's some sort of commanding influence in it, capturing it alive, or even dead, would be a great intel boon.

You meet her stare evenly – Naka's a big girl and just as capable as assessing the facts, (and nothing but the facts) as you are. And she watched the depth-charge counter-attack on the drone-cam when you did, too. “No contact yet. Hasn't checked in, hasn't responded to queries.” You shrug. “A few hours is about forty-five short of 'considered overdue' however, so, eh.”

Naka nods. “True. I'm sure he's fine. Deep water out there, all those enemy ships to dive under, the noise of his sinking victim – et cet-era~” she says with a little lilt. “Or maybe some angry destroyers are keeping him pinned down so he can't make more mischief. A Netherlands sub pulled that on me, once – took a swipe at me and missed. Admiral had me and my destroyer division pin him down, and while we were busy the Americans snuck in the back gate and nailed the convoy we were trying to protect.” She shakes her head sadly. “Never enough destroyers, as usual.”

You lean back as best you can in the stiff-backed cheap plastic office chair – only the best for the flag-rank fuckers like yourself, eh? “Naka, I know I'm strung-out, but if I leave “Americans sneaking in my back gate” lying there, Harder's gonna kill me for it when he gets back.”

Naka's head swivels slowly to bear on Goto, who's staring blankly into the bright glow of a tablet as Kongou bumps a frosted donut against his cheek encouragingly. She's got one arm twined tightly with her Admiral's, and another wrapped protectively around the donut box. As you watch, Kongou steals a suspicious, narrow look at Hate and clenches her box a little closer before returning to her fruitless ministrations.

“... ah. Shall I pick something up, then?”

“That'd help.” You pick up your coffee again, but the cup's travel is interrupted by the flat silver shape of a hip flask. You follow the black-gloved hand gripping it up the arm to the owner, and give Naka a squint.

“Shall I spice it up?”

You blink.

“Uh. Sure, I guess-”

The sound of stainless steel crumpling is a lot brighter and tinnier than you would've expected. Naka's chin slices upwards as she gives you the full Card Crusher.

“You... you set me up for that,” you say blankly.

“Yep!” Naka says brightly. She tosses the empty flask away, spins on her heel, and to your utter horror she actually *giggles* before almost skipping out of the room.

“Hey.”

“You said that already!”

The scratchy voices are coming through your dented headset. You fumble with the controls and turn up the volume, trying to place the voice-

“You're pretty.”

“You said that already too.”

- Akagi.

“I like your eyes.

“They're brown,” Akagi says a bit dubiously.

“Brown is warm,” the voice replies. “Like bread. Warm bread. Soft. Soft-”

“WH-WHWHERE ARE YOU T-T-TOUCHING!?”

That's enough to make you set your pencil down and look up at the displays, where Akagi's personal camera feed is bouncing about in agitation. The gun-director of Mustin is more informative – the operator is zooming in very carefully on the large man in the rumpled flight suit as he dreamily nuzzles his head into Akagi's ample bosom. She's carrying him bridal-style and trying to hoist her morphine'd charge as far away as possible as Fitzgerald's gig takes its suspiciously slow time reaching her for the hand-off.

A small, whimpering sound is heard, which he apparently takes as an affirmative. “Yeah, can't blame her though. They don't even let boys talk to girls over there until they prove their honor by slapping a polecat on the nuts with a willow-branch or some shi- thing like that I guess.” A huff of impatience. “Hey, since your... hull isn't in the water... I think... think I could pick this up to ten knots?”

Another whimper, a little fainter.

“Neat. Sing out of the spray drenches your backside, I'll sling you over my shoulder-”

The whimper has faded to a squeak of such high pitch you can scarcely tell it sounded at all.

“Oh, hurt your middle? How strong are your legs?”

The faint, ragged breath of the microphone's proper owner is suddenly absent, a conspicuous silence in its wake.

“Think you could grip my waist with 'em?”

*Utter* silence, like the absence of crashing waves when a tsunami sucks the tide out to sea.

“No problem. You can ride on my shoulders if you want, I'll just hold your legs to steady you-”

Flipping through camera feeds at lightspeed with your little remote, you finally find a feed from Shiranui's camera, who is apparently watching the display from nearby. Northampton has once again taken Hornet under tow – and Hornet doesn't seem sure what to say about it.

In fact, judging from her hue, you're not sure she's *breathing.*

It's pretty good and more similar to oldcom, but it's nowhere near perfect.

Wait, if she's got one arm in his and the other on the box... THEN WHO WAS DONUT

>>42114724
Yes UNLEASH THE HATE.

Besides Iwo Jima was a pain in the ass to bomb the first time around, unless you're packing a ton of bunker buster bombs there's still enough bunkers and caves to keep the place from being completely cleared.

Such a clearly embarrassed Hornet is reward enough for me.

>>42114897

Nah. Having to mod to breach the sides of UFOs is pretty shitty, but oh well. It's still way better than Longwar.

As someone who lives within spitting distance of Noho, I am more than eager to see these events unfolding. Pissing into the wind with my vote but eh. Props to Pixelfag's art too, he looks like any one of the innumerable hipsters that sprout like mushrooms here in the Valley.

"USS Northampton, this is Admiral Russ Settle. Good to have you back with us. We’ll have a briefing and coffee for you back at base. Oh, and mind where you're holding the lady while you have her under tow; try not to touch any of her delicate bits unless you want her planting her boot in your delicate bits. Settle out."
