You shake your head and beckon Hamp out of the conference room quietly. With your bodyguard in tow you slip through the building as fast as possible, not bothering to make an excuse to Shoukaku and the rest - not *daring* to look Shoukaku in the eye. They all heard when Arizona put her fist through the plaster and Shoukaku isn't stupid. She doesn't miss much, and she'd notice the guilt in your eyes right away.

It's time to cut your losses and run like with your tail between your legs - before you fuck things up worse.

Afore long you're slinking into your office. Hamp pushes a few unpacked boxes in one corner together and promply reclines on them, somehow managing to look comfortable as he sips his damned Starbucks sideways.

Naka's sitting at your desk, face turned down to her paperwork. She doesn't seem to notice your entry till you're pulling out the guest chair to sit down across from her. She looks up -

- and you twitch, arresting the urge to spring to your feet again. Naka's youthful face is pale and drawn, faint dark circles of exhaustion showing through the makeup - but it's her eyes that stop your heart for a beat; so distant that their usual depths seem a mere crevasse now, yawning and empty.

She blinks, focusing on you - and then she's back. Tired, weak - but back. “... Admiral?”

“.. eh?”

She forces a smile onto her face and holds it there, just for you. “You look like you've seen a ghost.”

You force a chuckle of your own out. “You must be tired if you're handing me lines like that.”

Her smile warms a little. “Just charitable.”

“What've you got there?”
>>
Something about debts apid.
>>
I arrive.
>>
“The paperwork you requested.” She slides a manilla folder over to you - a bunch of filled-out forms, requisition requests on top, and the veritable ream of additional requests needed to get anything out of the chairfarce - they're remarkably tight-fisted bastards, even for the American military, and they frown on people making work for them as hard as anyone else. “The hell do you need cargo parachutes for?”

“Redundancy,” you say.

“Use your words, Admiral.”

“You know why me and my girls flew here in a C-5?”

“To bring Hate's ego in one trip?”

You chuff. “No other cargo, actually. It was insurance - if the shipgirls started sliding down the ship/girl spectrum in flight, the C-5 had a lot more wiggle room before the extra weight put us in the drink.”

“... so you're air-dropping shipgirls? I thought they shot that down months-”

You grin, shaking your head and holding up pinched thumb and forefinger. “Baby steps, hun. Baby steps.”

Hamp sits up in the corner suddenly, turning his head like a bird dog that just heard quacks.

“... Hamp?” Naka asks.

“Did you hear that?”

“What?”

“Skipper dodging the fucking elephant in the-”

“YOUSONFOABITCH-” you snap, but the damage is done - Naka's eyes are back to their usual glittering intelligence and they're boring into you.

“What. Did you do,” she says flatly.
>>
I am now here, and testing something. Cause drunk me is curious
>>
You lean on your desk with one arm, sitting sideways to avoid looking at her directly. “I had a talk with Arizona-”

“-and took her to task for giving me what I deserved-”

“-no.”

Silence.

“... do I have to buy a vowel, or are you going to tell me?”

“You haven't guessed it?”

“That *was* my guess.”

You heave a hearty sigh, turning over six variations of 'it's your goddamn fault for pointing it out' and discarding them as the exact wrong thing to say to this girl, especially THIS girl. “I... broached a delicate subject.”

Naka blinks - you imagine her bollio buns turning in time with her internal gears. Which she might actually have, even - strange thought. “Settle, did you broach the topic or capital-letters BROACH it?” she says seriously.

It takes you a second to process the reference. “Uhm.”

“Good,” she says firmly. “Because she's wound tighter than any bunker I ever saw. At this rate you'll get your license?”

“License to ladykill?”

“To own and operate your balls.”

You squint at her, irked despite the welcome chance to sidetrack into banter for a few seconds. “Kid, I was digging my balls out of the rough before you were reborn.”

“You sure you didn't drop them in the sand trap?” she grins.

“My first deployment was in South East Asia, so no. It was definitely in the rough.”

“Jungles? Me Tarzan, you Jane?”

You shake your head. “More Old Testament.”

“You ordered the earth to open up and swallow the Marines competing for the pussy in port?”

“Let's just say that in a south-east Asian liberty port, the experience is biblical, but the burning bushes look a mite different.”

Naka spent a war in Southeast Asia herself - her expression sours with a kind of impressed disgust. “*Admiral!*”

You grin brilliantly. “Scandalized?”

“Hardly. You can't outbantz the bollios.” She leans forward, face serious again. “How did she take it?”

Oh God, what are you doing?

Hamp makes a long, low whistle in the corner that terminates in a “kerchewwwaaarrrr” sound. You bite your lower lip, eyes rolling upwards to seek God's patience as he drags out the sound effects, complete with a power slide over a cliff that overlooks an active volcanic caldera, from what you can tell.

Naka pays him no heed, her eyes fixed on you - she's holding eye contact too long and without blinking; the stare going past intimate and straight into uncomfortable. “You told her she shouldn't pursue you, didn't she?”

“She's putting me on a pedestal,” you say firmly. “I played hero once, and she's only been back three weeks now, and one thing leads to another, yadda yadda.”

“Did she clamp her hand over your mouth to cut off the stupid?”

“No-”

“Try to kiss you, then?”

You feel a strong urge to let your face fall into your palms, but you don't feel *that* embarrassed about it - not with Naka. But for her eyes... “She asked me if I'd given Shoukaku that speech before, or after I started walking around base with her on my arm.”

“She's stupid,” Naka says instantly.

“The hell she is,” you say, a little heat entering your voice - this is not the lambasting you expected - no, the criticism you *deserve.* “I've been a fucking hypocrite and-”

“You sure have been,” Naka spits. “Talking to her, of all fucking people, about putting YOU on a pedestal, you dumb FUCK.”

You blink.

“She's a walking talking Alamo, all she needs is Hood's Union Jack to drape over Leonidas's shield to be the Perfect Walking Martyr.”

You remember the conference room going quiet as Arizona entered - Admiral Thomas approaching her with hat in hand - and the blood drains from your face.

“-and you fucking talk to HER about pedestals? Your country LITERALLY put her under a memorial, you silly bastard.” Naka's expression doesn't quaver, the flint in her tone never reaching her face. “And she IS traumatized, Settle - not talking? There's no spiritual reason for that, I think. *She* was wanted. *She* was valuable even before she became a symbol. Even an old battleship is useful, and even moreso as an icon - look at Hood. She didn't come back incomplete. If I see one more internet discussion board theory about her fucking bell, I'm going to scream. It's got absofuckinglutely nothing to do with her bell.”

You open your mouth.

“Ever tried pen and paper, Settle?”

You try to speak with air you can't find.

“If you did, it didn't work. It's nothing physical, her vocal chords are there. She *cannot find the words,* Settle. She'd never ask, it's not her way, but you reached out to her and before she can reach back, before she can even *look* at you differently or too much you shut her down?”

“The abyssals got to Goto over the fucking PHONE, and now we know they can operate on land-”

“So what happens when you bite it?” Naka interrupts. “We've all got to love someone, Settle - did you ever consider that you're putting HER in danger?”

“How the fu-”

“Why do you humans watch us girls with weapons at the ready?” she snaps. “Why are ports with museum ships guarded by coastal ASM batteries with a clear LOS to the museum berth, well over minimum launching range? They put radar reflectors on the Missouri, did you know that? Right where everyone can fucking see them. Because you're afraid we'll turn, Settle. There's no way to be sure who's coming back and which team they'll be pitching for. Do you think denying her a good reason to play for Humanity is helping? Even if you DO bite it, she'll fight on just to avenge you!”

It's an easy trap to fall into, to assume that just because Naka has serious issues, that she's wrong in her analysis. Even when she's talking about her own situation. "You can do it, Naka!" "You're worth having around!" so, so, easy and inspiring to say but that doesn't mean it's correct.

That might have some merit.

We don't want to be all "FUCK humanity" around Naka of all people lest she take our example and run with it.

And yes, it is blatantly hypocritical to tell Arizona what we did that turn around and say this.

>>44679482
>Arizona is our direct subordinate.
Ship girls are new territory and play by different rules. That's why things are so lenient around them. People are scared and don't really know what the fuck is up.

If you can convince God that not doing RELATIONSHIP with Arizona would be bad for her mental health, then rules could get bent, rewritten, or whatever.

It's a classic paradox. Shipgirls are neither ship nor girl but some combination of both. How much of each depends on each girls circumstances. The more traumatic their ship lives, the more issues they have as shipgirls. Further, you can't separate the two parts -- they're shipgirls, not ship/girls. We've been making the mistake of assuming that their minds work the same as their bodies -- that there's a line between ship and girl and its a matter of figuring out which side of the line they're on at any given time. There's no fucking line anon -- they're both ... at the SAME time!

Now, that would fuck with my head - and I'm a pretty intelligent and mentally sound guy. Now put that problem on a traumatized shipgirl ... and you'd have some serious issues.

As I said when we first got introduced to Naka's issues in the hospital, I really feel like she should be put in an upgrade program.

She felt obsolete back in the day and feels even more so now, but I don't think it's beyond our capabilities to do something about that.

It feels like everything we've done so far isn't really addressing that issue.

Yes you can do a lot to help the war effort as an idol without fighting directly, but that may not be what Naka actually needs as a person. Maybe she'd feel better about doing stuff like that if she also knew that it was something she wanted to do as opposed to the only thing she could do.

Solution: treat them like both. We failed to respect Shiguire's ship part TWICE and it almost got us killed twice! We're treating Arizona too much like a ship, and yet not enough like a ship.

On one hand, we're treating her like a subordinate, and applying the anti-fraternization rules like she works for us. She's a fucking battleship - she doesn't work for us. At best, we're her partner in this war -- she's plays tactical while we play strategy. Neither works without the other.

On the other hand, we're acting as if she would be better off without her feelings. Naka's right. That's bullshit. She's not a robot, she can't/won't just turn her feelings off. And if she could, wouldn't she just be an abyssal?

I'm not saying go dive into the girls pants. I am saying that we've disrespected her as a ship, and as a woman. So let's man up, and admit that her feelings and opinions on our relationship (whatever that relationship may end up being) matter just as much as ours. She gets a choice in this too ... and we're trying to take that away from her. Do we really want to be taking choices away from the U.S.S. Arizona -- the ship that didn't get a fucking choice because she was caught in fucking harbor with her (metaphorical) pants down? We owe her some damn respect, and we've done nothing but show disrespect I a limits everything we've done - from ditching her as a bodyguard to this.

So, are we big enough to admit we've been treating her wrong, and fix this shit?

I think the problem with Naka is that she can't see, to find her purpose. She can't sortie, since Fubuki alone packs twice the firepower at half the displacement, and even if she has the idol thing going, she's not doing as herself, but as a bubbly-as-fuck walking, talking traffic cone-dressed shipslut that never has a problem even if she has a lot of problems. I think the biggest problem is that she knows how much she wasn't wanted. She found out that they tried to send her back, hell, the people doing the summoning apologized for not sending her back in her face. I think she needs to know that she does have a place in the world. The upgrade program thing sounds like a good idea. She can't do anything, so give her something that'll allow her to do shit.

Same thing goes for Naka. We want to actually help Naka, we look at her and say "Naka. You think you're becoming (or already are) an abyssal, and that scares the shit out of you.

So Shokaku. Missed midway because of repairs from Truk. IJN lost four carriers.

Damaged at Batthe of the Santa Cruz Islands. Out for repairs. IJN and IJA gets smashed because of lack of air cover.

Gets sunk, and later that year her sister get overwhelmed and sunk. Of course she's clingy - she's afraid of being left behind -- but is too scared (and proud) to admit it!

Harder is terrified of feelings because subs aren't supposed to have feelings! They sneak up and shoot other ships in the back - including unarmed merchant vessels. A conscience and feelings are a liability in that job. Like many submariners of the time - he tries to cover that up in humor (including black humor) but then gets in too deep and actually realizes that he is developing feelings -- and worse yet they're for a former enemy that not that long ago (form his perspective) he would happily have torpedoed in the dark with no warning! What he needs is to understand that it's okay to have those feelings towards his comrades, his friends, and maybe even a girlfriend. Those feelings make him stronger as a shipboy - not weaker (as they would have when he was pure sub) because they give him something worth fighting for. Subs aren't used to being part of a team - so having friends (and maybe even family) he's willing to fight and die for makes him stronger.

I'm just annoyed at how things went with the very first conversation with Arizona.

Ironically - we actually did the right thing with Hornet (who was so afraid of being useless that she was ready to throw herself on the first grenade that was within reach) by showing how much we valued her as an individual ship, and as an individual girl. Thus far, that seems to have worked. Same concept applies to all of the others. Command is about people - understanding their hearts and souls -- not just their weapons and capabilities. That's how Napoleon, Washington, Lee, etc. could do what they did. Their men had faith because their leaders understood them. Shutting ourselves away from our ships emotionally is a recipe for disaster. As long as we are willing to send them to die when we have to (and they wouldn't respect us if we weren't willing to do just that) then we can be in command, and still have be friends/family/lovers/whatever.

I don't know about you anon, but I'd still send Arizona or any of their others to die if I had to in order to complete the mission. I'd feel like shit, but I'd do it if I had no other practicable choice.

As long as we can have feelings and still do our job, then we can do this. The day we can't (either because we have too much feelings, or not enough), then it's time to quit. But otherwise, it's time to stop acting like we too are either the admiral, or their friend. We can be both, and vary where we are between the two based on what needs to get done at that moment. We can't stop being both officer and human any more than they can stop being ship and human!

Okay, since I'm talking a lot of what is likely just shit -- I might as well go for gold.

So Goto. Goto is caught in kinda the same spot we are. He's got quite a bit of self-loathing because he is still willing to send his shipgirls to their deaths - and he feels like a conplete bastard for it.

Conversely, he feels like a shitty commander because he does feel for certain ships more than others. You can't tell me he wouldn't feel Kongou's death more than [insert random shipgirl here], and that worries him.

So, to try and balance that out he lets Kongou get away with all kinds of shit, but doesn't outright encourage it. That way he can feel like he's being a good neutral commander -- without treating her like a machine.

He needs to figure out that he's allowed to have different feelings for different ships as long as it doesn't effect his command judgment. As long as he's willing to send his favorite ship to die when required just as much as his least favorite ship - and doesn't cry about it until AFTER he's given the order -- then he is still very much fit for command.

Ok, I took upon your suggestion, and combined Whiskey with coffee.

>>
>>44680726
Mixing booze and caffeine is only dangerous insofar as the caffeine can cover up some of the effects of the booze, potentially making you think you're less drunk than you really are and thus inclining you to keep drinking beyond the point of what's safe.

If you had no intention of drinking yourself to your limit anyway, you should be fine and dandy. It's not like, say, alcohol and sleeping pills, where there's an actual synergy between the two that amplifies their effects.

You pinch the bridge of your nose and close your eyes (closing off THOSE eyes, thank god, if only for a moment,) and breathe deep, surrendering to the onslaught. It *IS* Naka, after all. “So just what the fuck do you expect me to do about it? Start boinking my own underling? While Shoukaku fixes to chop my nads off for running around on her?”

Naka's awful, disturbing stare finally relents, her usual wry amusement on her lips. “Do you want the pretty version, or the Naka-and-Settle version?”

“Duh,” you retort.

“Why are her ankles not around your head right the fuck now, you stupid round-eye?”

It seems she was scandalized enough to try and get her own back. “And fucking her with my magic dick's gonna fix all her issues just like that? Maybe I should bottle my jizz and sell it for a hundred dollars an ounce.”

Naka shakes her head. “Some things have no fixes. I should know. What she wants is *resolution.* Validation. Comfort. And what YOU need is a reminder that whatever you think, you still have a few more days left in the sun.” She rests her head in one hand, elbow propped on the desk, rubbing her forehead. “Go. Go make a big stupid glorious mess and a political shitstorm with a talk show host calling you Satan on top. Write an email about it, I don't care. And I doubt Arizona will either.”

From the corner you hear Hamp slurp at his Starbucks again. You cut him a hassled look. “How the hell do you make that sound... *affirmative?*”

He grins lazily, still reclining. “It's a gift.”

You turn back to Naka with a scowl. “Just one thing, kid - what makes you think I like her like that? I've just been doing right by my people - which includes you now I might add. That does not equal wanting t-”

If a panel of observers were to rank Naka's glare on a rank of 1 to Bitch Please, they'd rank her at Tommy Lee Jones. You recline in your office chair, pushed back by the pressure of your face ablating under her withering expression. Your palms come up in weak surrender. “Christ.”

“I'm starting to feel like him these days, yeah.”

“Stigmata are not self-inflicted.”

“Neither are nail wounds.”

“Oh, please,” you reply. “You're not getting nailed by anyone.”

Naka is shuffling the forms together on the desk and tapping them into the manilla folder - they do need to be sent over to the chairfarce base with the next shipment of Kind Of Secret But Not Really documents. But it's also a convenient excuse to vamoose and let you process the conversation. After everything that's passed between you, this kind of conversation isn't awkward or upsetting, but weight is weight, and this shit's *heavy.* She understands that, as she understands most things.

But she's not the only one with a rangefinder - and as good as her optics are, you've got the Admiralty Table she lacks.

You wait for the last second quip, which she delivers just a mite too early, before she's within a single step of the threshold - “Just because I'm flat doesn't mean you can project on me, Settle.”

“Burn and dodge,” you say primly as you get up.

Naka halts in the doorway, turning to give you a puzzled look - she'd know about photo-shoot photo-shopping, of course, but can't fathom where you're going with it.

“Burning me, dodging Harder,” you say. “Ta~ta~” You wave with your fingers as the door slowly hisses shut on her nonplussed expression.

Hamp is lying on his side, head propped on one bent arm, Starbucks in the other. You glance sidelong at him.

“Well, that was the show. How about eats?”

"I need to talk to you," you tell Wayne flatly.

He stares at you over the faint din of the base officer's club, lousy with good, strong, dignified people a little too deep in the drink for their station. It's the day after a battle, only natural.

Wainwright is one of them, and the handful of empty glasses (tradition about avoiding mixing alcohol doesn't have any traction with him, it seems), peering up at you, expression slightly clouded. "Aw, hell, really?" he asks, a mild slur muddying his thick American accent.

"Yes, really," you reply, pulling up a chair and falling into it heavily.

"And this couldn't wait, huh? You know I'm off duty now, right?"

You nod, leaning forward and lowering your voice. "Yeah, I waited for a reason. If I told you while you were in the office, you'd be obliged to turn over what I told you to your bosses."

That shakes a little bit of the drunk off him. "Christ, Naka," he groans, looking down at a half-finished plate of what looks like wings. "Okay, what is it?"

"I can't see out of one eye and I'm turning Abyssal."

He chokes on his drink, a sputtering cough turning into a laugh. "Really? Come on, if you were anyone else..."

You wait patiently for him to catch his breath. He looks up, meeting your eyes, your contact lens removed and perched carefully on the pad of your index finger.

"Goddamnit," he mutters, wiping his mouth. "Of course you were serious. God fucking dammit, Naka."

"I'm sorry," you growl. "I didn't want to..."

>>
"Yeah. Yeah, I know," he says, waving you off. "You know I came down here to forget about you for two hours? Just... stop worrying about you, try to come at it fresh."

You can practically feel yourself wilt, despite your best effort. "I'm sorry, Wayne."

"No. No, you did the right thing and we both know it. C'mon."

"I know I'm putting you in a real shitty spot here," you continue. "I just--you were the first person I thought to find." You continue on apologetically as you reach the clinic door, Wayne fumbling for his keys. You burn with hangdog shame over ruining the poor bastard's night just so you could endanger his career. "If--if you need to report this, do what you need to do, it's just--"

He holds up a hand, pushing open the door. "One condition. Hourly reports. Hourly. You go to lie down, you tell me first. You miss a report... I gotta assume the worst."

You nod, the nervous energy ebbing away and leaving you feeling hollow and empty and...

Tired.

>>
>>44681066
No, her advice was to use our dick so that both of us have something to think about besides our problems. Vital difference.
>>
>>44680939
naka's advice is coloured by her longing for love
love that she doesn't deserve because her stats are so awful
she wants it but she can't even ask for it. so she fills the void with bantz and cutting.

And now I'm on the hope rides alone path if we're gonna bed Arizona...she's kinda fucking boring.

Naka has a similar problem to Hornet - but we appear to have actually convinced Hornet of her value. We just need to convince Naka that as long as she feels - she can't ever truly be an abyssal.

He leads you in, letting you take a seat on an examination table while gets his things. You catch your head bobbing forward as you almost nod off on the hospital bed--the same one you were itching to get away from for so long.

"Naka?" Wain snaps his fingers in front of you. "Stay with me."

"I'm just--" you teeter. "I'm just so fucking tired, Wainwright. I can't remember the last time I slept right."

He leans in, pulling down the bags under one of your eyes with his thumb (then grunting and wiping it clean of makeup with a wet towel and doing it again). "You know, with a concussion, you're supposed to keep the patient awake."

"I'm not concussed," you reply. "Please, Wayne, let me just lie down for a minute."

He exhales through his nose. "If I do, are you gonna wake back up again?"

"I'm still me, god damn it!" You snap, digging your fingers into the cot. "...For whatever that's worth."

Wainwright watches in silence for a moment. "Means a lot to your friends," he says quietly.

"...I know," you whisper, head hanging low. "It's all that's keeping me going."

-----
>>
>>44681076

Literally Naka is basically telling us to do what she does: find reasons to ignore her problems until we are completely unable to.

Because it worked so well for her too amirite?

"If you care for them, leave."

"Fuck you," you hiss, palm over your eyes.

Your twin pulls your hand away by the wrist, coming nose to nose with you. "You're being selfish."

"I'm not. One of you." You seethe, trying to wrest your hands away, ignoring her talons digging in.

She closes her eyes, in annoyance--of all the fucking gall, SHE'S annoyed with YOU--her skin so pale that the light of her eyes shines through her eyelids. "You're not one of them. So what are you, Naka?"

You chuckle darkly. "Does it matter?"

"It does to you. And it does to them. And you know it. So stop being a petulant child and accept me," she lectures.

"They still care about me," you insist. "I still care about them."

"Then why aren't you gone yet?" She puts her hands around your shoulders and gives you a little shake. "The longer you stay, the worse it's going to hurt."

"Fuck. You."

She grins savagely, knowing she struck with that one. "It's going to be even worse for Harder than it was for her."

You snap. "Fuck YOU!"

"You destroyed her life when you left, you know that? And for what? Her only crime was being smarter than you."

"That's not--"

"She knew more about you than you did. She knew this--" she gestures down at herself, "was inevitable. She still knows more about you than you do," she observes wryly.

You thrash underneath her, but you're stuck fast. Her smile turns cloying and sweet, and she rests her talon on your lips softly.

"I know you care about them. But you're killing them. It's what you do. I'm sorry, Naka, but it's the truth. You're just going to drag them down with you."

"Shut up," you mewl pitifully, eyes squeezed shut and tears rolling--from one eye, at least.

You feel her arms wrap around you, resting her head against your chest in a black metalline parody of a warm embrace. "I know it hurts. I'm sorry. I promise, when you're finally ready, nothing will hurt any more." You feel her talons stroke your hair, her other hand gliding across yours. "Do you hate me, Naka?"

"...No," you admit miserably.

"Why not?" she asks, voice lightened with the patience of a saint.

"You are... what you are," you confess. "I--you're wrong, I know you're wrong, but... I don't know."

"You're a good person, Naka. You just want to help. You can have that--you can have everything," she promises.

You want to believe her. You want to believe her so, so much.

Herm. It appears I may have been onto something. Who wudda thunk it?

So, I threw a lot of shit out and I welcome thoughts on it . We've been losing sight of the big picture 'what are ship girls' thing, even though Naka's basically been throwing it in our face. I think it really is, as I mentioned above, that shipgirls are girls with a ship's soul/spirit/whatever while Abyssals are ships without souls. Not to turn shipgirls into the Dragonborn or anything, but it does make sense.

"Hey."

You look up at Harder's intrusion, quickly adjusting your gloves to make sure your hands stay hidden. "What?"

He looks... uncharacteristically subdued. Evasive, almost. "It's about your, um..." His voice drops to a conspiratorial whisper. "Your crew."

Your what? You frown, signalling all hands to report to--

God damn it, Div.

Your pilot is missing--along with his floatplane. The E7K Alf should still be resting unattended somewhere in the byzantine labyrinth of pipeworks that make you you. You can feel its absence alongside the presence of all of your crew.

All except fucking DIV-.

Harder lifts his cap, revealing wayward pilot, plane, and all. "You've really got to get a handle on him," he mutters, looking aside.

"Yeah, good luck with that," you grumble. "Div, get OVER here."

"He keeps visiting, and..." Harder coughs. "My cook keeps letting him in."

"Letting him IN?" you breathe.

"Yeah. Keeps putting on a spread for him."

You flinch. "Harder, I swear to god, never use the word 'spread' around me again unless you're talking about torpedoes."

"Hey, it wasn't my idea!" he insists. "This is weird for me too."

"Okay. Okay, sorry. Div..."

You more or less seize the plane like a wayward child and unceremoniously return it and him to your complement, Harder looking away politely the whole time, coughing awkwardly. Div squawks and complains the entire time, which you pointedly ignore. Quit DOING that, you order down at him.

"Sorry," Harder mumbles. "It's--you know how it is."

"Yeah. Yeah." You groan, massaging your temples, momentarily glad your skin has gotten a litle more pale. According to Wayne, he can't even get a drop of blood out of you any more.

Arizona wants resolution. She might think she already got it. What with the previous confrontation we had.

>>44681066
What I mean is that, trying to solve it with Settle's dick at this point might be the worst possible option. Note that Naka didn't address what it'd do to Shoukaku at all.

I'm inclined to think that, in this particular instance, the best choice might be to ignore the advice about what to do and just take the advice about what Arizona feels about it. Which is "Resolution, validation, comfort".

And I'm pretty sure we sank the romance possibility tonight. Because, as PF confirmed, Arizona's heart/feelings are currently in a thousand little confetti.

"So..." he claps his hands against his legs, hoping to banish the flustered moment with a burst of noise. "What were you doing in here, anyway?"

"Practicing for the concert," you explain. "Only a few days left."

"Ah, cool." He pauses for a moment, mulling something over before he decides. "...Can I watch?"

You smile a little. "Well, you can listen, anyway. Sure. Any requests?"

"Sma--"

"Anything that isn't Smash Mouth," you interrupt dourly.

"Dammit. Okay, um... you ever watch the Wizard of Oz?"

"Actually, yeah," you reply brightly. "It's a favorite. Somewhere Over the Rainbow?"

It only takes a minute to garner an audience--you give Willie a reassuring smile as she slinks into the room, followed a moment later by Fubuki. It feels good to sing, again--whatever you think of the job, you've always appreciated the human voice. And the acoustics in this room--you don't remember them being this good, but you sound fantastic, if you do say so yourself.

Your voice resounds back in your ears, giving your words a melodic reverb; you're not unfamiliar with hearing your own voice by any means, recording and editing your own music, but you've got a nearly chimelike, crystal tone as you almost harmonize with yourself.

God, it really does feel good today. Maybe you've just needed to do something with yourself again--you work skillfully and soulfully, feeling just a hint of satisfaction and delight in a job well done.

You bring the the song to a close find Harder staring at you, practically unblinking. You allow yourself a little grin, still riding high. "Like something you see?" You tease. "Maybe I should start charging. A kiss per song, maybe?"

"Okay."

Your heart catches in your throat as Harder steps forward, filling your vision as he bows low for just that, hat pulled down over his eyes. You giggle in surprise (and fluttering nerves), and put up a hand to stop him. "All right, all right! Stop, I was kidding."

"Okay." He steps back again robotically, earning a half-lidded smirk from you.

"You can be done without, Harder."

"Understood."

You blink as he calls his fitout, and manifests a Mark 14 in his hands.

A moment later, the familiar whir of gears of heavy guns tracking fills the room behind him.

You start in shock at Fubuki and Willie, teetering slowly back and forth in place in fitout, their guns slowly swiveling towards Harder as he primes his Mark 14 and turns it around in his hand, raising a fist overhead.

Oh god, what the fuck, what the fuck--"Stop stop STOP!"

They all stop.

You stare in growing horror, a cold, icy dread filling you. None of them are moving, talking--they're barely fucking breathing. Harder sways on his feet, arm cocked to swing down and smash the warhead from the side, pointed at his face.

Oh god. Oh god... "Put--" you choke. "Put your weapons away."

"Okay." The weapons and fitouts disappear, the three of them all teetering stock-still.

Your voice trembles as your stomach starts to ache, tears beginning to spring. This can't be--this can't be real. "Harder? Are you--can you hear me?"

"I can hear you."

You shudder, heart pounding painfully hard as your legs start to shake. "What--what's your name?"

"USS Harder," he replies calmly. "SS-257."

Oh my god. This is happening. This is really happening.

"F-Fubuki. Willie. Y-you... go outside, okay? Forget this happened. Go play and go back to normal."

The two of them nod in silence--Willie fucking SALUTES--and they file off. You cltuch your chest, practically feeling the rust underneath your shirt as your heart starts to pound, nausea starting to overwhelm you.

"Har--Harder," you gasp.

"Here."

"Y-you..." you swallow. "You came in to watch me sing. I mixed up an L and an R and ran away embarrassed before you could say anything. That's all you remember, okay?"

"Understood."

...Wait. You can still-- "Harder."

"Here."

Your heart catches in your throat again--this time your chest constricting painfully tight, a lump building that you fight to talk through. "F-forget..."

Say it.

Just tell him to forget he likes you. Say it!

SAY IT, YOU TRASH! JUST FUCKING SAY IT!

You can GO if you do! All you have to do is make him not care!

...You can't. You fucking can't. You're too cowardly.

"...When I leave the room, go back to normal," you cough, tears rolling free.

You barely hear his "understood" behind you, ears popping and head swimming as you leave at a sprint, arm wrapped around your face to cover your mouth.

There's a problem with that. At that point, Naka was probably thinking that all she's good for is her pretty face and voice, and we know she doesn't care about her pretty face. What would happen if we took away her voice?

Bad things. Suicidal things. Abyssal things. Quick! Somebody make Naka feel like she's needed! The fucktards who summoned her did a shit job at doing that.

Same point I made above on shipgirls not being a starlight dichotomy. Naka doesn't has an abyssal half, she has abyssal traits. That doesn't make her an abyssal anymore than her rig makes her a ship. As long as the core of who she is remains good - then nothing else matters. Thinking otherwise is angoodnway tondeive yourself nuts - which appears to be what she's doing...

Talk to Harder. TELL HIM. He'll either sink you, or go out of his way to help you. Either way. you don't have much to lose at that point. Your singing is what jazzed him, so don't sing. write everything on a gaddamn paper if you have to, just find some fucking help from someone you know cares about you!

Also, you might wanna tell Fubuki and Willie that they can go back to normal too.

So what you're suggesting is that neither "interpretation" is any more valid than the other?

Naka who is sharp and an incredible liar and performer who sucks at combat and "Naka" who is literally able to control people with her voice and is literally a rusting, waterlogged piece of scrap are just diferent manifestations of the same "real" Naka?

Or maybe we should give him a pat on the back. Naka needs to realize that what she did was an accident, but if she could learn how to control it, if she could use it on Abyssls, then she just became twice as valuable as the Fubuki class combined.

Hmm. I do think it's got a good chance at being canon, but it also conflicts with one writeup, I believe. It's the one where HMS Campbelltown shows up and does a boarding action on,I think it was HMS King George V?

There's no real evidence about her actually sucking in combat, she's obsolete against warships made after 1920 not incompetent.

Her sister proved it, Naka might not be able to be useful in a battleship slug fest where she first got injured but she wasn't supposed to go up against battleships in the first place.

And Abyssal Naka was spotted commanding a fleet of Abyssal destroyers, clearly she isn't seen as useless by the other side.

In that case...

Planefag. You're welcome.

Hate. Sorry, bro. Nothing personal.
>>
>>44681962
Just that ill-fated (for her) battle sparked off the powder keg of issues Naka had.
>>
>>44681750
Exactly. She's assuming that there's a clear line between shipgirl and abyssal and once she crosses it she's done. That's just as fucking stupid as us assuming there's a clear line between ship and girl and they've got to be one or the other at any given time. They can be both -- she can be both.

Are there any other writeups coming? Or is that the thread for tonight?

Fucking excellent.
Antagonists that run on instinct are boring.
And while baddies that have their own good reasons for what they do and make for interesting settings, fucking nothing beats a villain that you can enact relentless, remorseless violence on.
Righteousness is the best feeling in the world.

You don't bite the hand that feeds.

Not the anon in question, but while I've got a few reservations on the Buchanan schtick, I'm grudgingly calling myself a fan of this. Having enemies that have understandable reasons for being the enemy, yet also an enemy you have no qualms about killing is good. They've shown that quality in spades, so far.

>>44682057
...I am legitimately uncertain of what you mean by this. I say this with no sarcasm or ill-intent: can you explain what you mean?

Possibly explain it like I'm drunk, 'cause I am.
>>
>>44682033
Not him, but I'm not fond of how supernatural you're making it. Ice from nowhere, a ship turning into some sort of giant shark? thing, etc, are all much further into fantasy territory than anything in the quest or the other bits of writefaggotry.
It doesn't really feel like it's the same setting anymore when that happens.
>>
>>44682044
Two British Age of Sail ships came back as boss abyssals, use research station in Shangri-La to listen in on boatslut nightmares and whisper little abyssal sweet nothings to Naka. One abyssal gets drunk. Oh, and a Clemson-class destroyer gets mind controlled via crazed abyssal fairies.
>>
>>44681947
That's the part of the series about Vanguard
>>
>>44682095
Noted. I was looking to play both with the Abyssal's primeval cheatery and with the stories of the Erebus & Terror themselves, but I'll cuss & discuss with PF as I continue in this vein. Staying within the feel of the setting's a prime concern for me.

I 'preciate the feedback.

And it's a gulper eel; other Abyssals have shark-like traits, that black chitin, etc. Erebus has a maw, to match her undying hunger.

Agreed. I think I have at least a little better idea is how shipgirls tick. We'll see how Planefag decides to play it - but I'm hopeful we might be on the right track.

No no, they're fucking perfect.

I'm a big fan of the Dresden Files.
One of the reasons I'm a big fan is because I love the idea of something that thinks and feels, yet still manages to be totally unrepentantly evil, and then that thing gets torn limp from limb by good people that are just so fucking furious that something like that can exist.

If you wanted a sympathetic villain then you're so goddam out of the ball park that you're on Mars.

If you were going for a "Hey look at Erebus! She's one of the bad guys! This is what she does and what she thinks about it! HATE HER!" kind of thing? Grand slam my nigga

Assuming planefag doesn't bail on this quest like his others, the thread where we removed that bitches citadel via her asshole, I'm going to be spamming macros like this every minute and a half, shit I might need a collage.

I've been advised not to. There is a feeling that there would be...errors of translation.

>>44682391
Either way I'm guessing you weren't aware of my writeups up till this point, specifically the one where I use Campbeltown.

Honestly? Not even a little. My apologies, my friend; Naka-chan got me into the quest wanting me to read Nakatime, and I read the actual story to have context for Nakatime. I have read literally no other writing besides the main quest and Naka.
>>
>>44682089
aright lemme pick a bit at random.
terror is entering the broadcasting station and stops to check its page on wikipedia.
you should shrink the infodump, or write what she sees and thinks instead, keeping us attached to her.

english language class PTSD is kickin in so that's all the effort i'm gonna expend.

don't forget that anything you see on 4chan is just an expression of opinion and personal tastes.

Fair. Never been the best at exposition; I'll take another look at this when I'm sober and see what I can do better on it next time.

this is too much mindfuckery for one night. First Naka and now this? i shuddered as i took in that poor destroyer's fate. Killing her crew destroyed her personality? that's bad. I can only hope that another boarding action can allow the ship's fairies to regenerate otherwise...
>>
>>44682893
We'll have to see, I'm afraid. Terror and Erebus have plans for their prisoner; otherwise they would have just thrown her into the crush outside and watched her die.

Please stop bullying Naka, I can't take it anymore

Yep, I'm already really looking forward to the "conclusion" of her character arc.
