Flight ops on the deck are active- even now, you can see a pair of the so-called echocats- nearly thirty years old now- rolling forward to the bow cats, while one of the aircraft handlers directs you to a spot near an elevator before directing you to shut down. Rumor has it the venerable tomcat is in it’s twilight years, and is soon to be phased out. You doubt it, personally- the thing has a lot of noteriatey, and there’s proposals on the board that will keep it easily up to speed with the newest stuff coming on line.

He unlatches the built in ladder along the fuselage and climbs up once it’s locked down, helping you get all your straps undone. “Welcome aboard the Saratoga, sir!” He greets you in a shout, his head close to yours to be heard over the noise of the deck. “The CAG wanted to see you down in her office as soon as you got aboard!”

You nod- that doesn’t surprise you at all, honestly.

He drops down off the ladder shortly before you climb out of the cockpit, reaching down to grab your flight bag on the way out. You pause for a second at the bottom of the ladder, looking back up at your

The Fenrir is a big aircraft- almost as big as a greyhound or sentry, and it shows. it’s also very much an elite showpiece assignment- and one you’ll never, ever get out of. Fenrir pilots are Fenrir pilots for the entirety of their careers, per naval doctrine. There’s less than thirty of them in the navy- one fewer, now, even- and they only go to the top graduate of advanced flight, usually about two a year. If that.

Part of you knows you shouldn’t be surprised you got one, part of you is still shocked you pulled it off- there was a lot of competition for the job.

The blue shirted aircraft handler waits patiently for you for a second before speaking. “This way, sir, I’ll show you where her office is.”

You nod, letting him open the hatch in the side of the island and close it behind you.

“Glad you made it when you did, sir.” He says, conversationally, motioning to you that it’s ok to pull your flight helmet now. “Rumor had it we’d be taking up whiskey point without a second fenrir onboard, and CAG wasn’t happy at all about that.”

You nod, following the man through the unfamiliar corridors of the ship. You’ve been aboard a carrier before, of course- you did a cruise aboard the coral sea, same as everyone else, in the T-45 Goshawks of the training squadron. Of course, the Fenrir is a different monster entirely.

It takes a couple minutes to make it to the CAG’s office, located in the island structure. The hatch is closed, but the plaque on it is kind of familiar- it simply reads “Cdr. Bishop, CAG”

“In there, sir.” He says, motioning.

You nod, knocking at the hatch twice. You have to wait almost a minute- you’re actually about to knock again when you’re told to enter.

Inside, the office is fairly dark and spartan- the only decorations you can see are a framed picture of the famed ‘eagle flight’ of VF-3- two wyverns and two ravens- in their wartime colors, and a degree from the USNA, similarly framed. Behind the desk sits a woman you’d guess to be in her mid twenties, if you didn’t know better, her auburn hair just barely long enough to cover her ears.

She looks up at you as you close the hatch and snap to attention, nodding once. “At ease.” She says, standing up, her flat expression unchanging. “Hello Morgan.”

[x] Commander

“Commander.” You respond, earning a slight softening of her expression- about as close to a smile as you’ve ever seen her get.

“What did they tell you before you left?” She asks- from anyone else, it’d be almost conversational.

“Not much.” You admit. “Just that I’d been tapped as a replacement and I’d receive my RIO aboard ship.”

She nods. “You will, just not yet. Garcia’s RIO went down with him.” She says, her voice betraying little emotion about losing a crew.

“What happened?” you ask, and she shakes her head.

“No telling, at least not yet. Looked like he flamed out on his port jet, stalled, and that was it. Not even time to eject. But we don’t know and you shouldn’t guess. His squadron won’t take it well.”

“My squadron, now.” You point out, and she nods again.

“That too. I’ll introduce you. Follow me.”

You step out of the office and back into the corridor, which seems deserted. She’s out a second behind you, closing the hatch behind her. “This way.” She says, simply, starting in the direction of the ladderwell. Looks like you’ll have time to ask a couple questions, if you want to.

[x] Ask her about the squadron

“What can you tell me about the squadron?” You ask as you follow her down to the hangar deck. The inside is packed with parked aircraft- mostly F/A-27s and F-14Es, with a handful of Wyverns and, back on the far side, the ship’s other Fenrir.

“They’re not taking it well.” She responds. “Don’t expect to be popular. Garcia joined them about ten years ago, he’d been there longer than most of them had.”

“Ten years? That’s a long time for a wolf driver.”

She nods. “He’d flown hornets before that, was one of the last pilots the navy converted to the Fenrirs from a standard type. There’s another flight crew in the unit, the other Fenrir, and four witches.”

“Only four?” you ask. She nods again.

“We haven’t operated at wartime staffing in a long time.” She points out. “Two steelwings and four witches is standard for a composite unit anymore, especially with the newer striker units we’ve got.”

You nod.

“They had a good wartime record.” She says, leading you through the hangar deck to another ladderwell near the bow of the ship. “And have kept a good record since then. I expect you to help them maintain it.”

“Of course.”

“They’re up on close patrol.” She says as you walk down the ladderwell another deck before getting off. “And I don’t know where their other Fenrir crew is. You’ll have to take the empty locker and draw linens for your rack on your own. Your squadron leader is Commander Kristen Piper. She’s been in for about ten years, but this is her first cruise as a squadron commander. She’s taking the loss particularly hard, don’t hold it against her.”

“I won’t.”

“Good. Here’s the squadron berth.” She says, opening the hatch to a fairly open room- Six racks, in three sets of two, are set along one bulkhead, while another six rest along the opposite. Each side has three lockers built into the wall, and there’s a table in the center of the room, bolted to the deck, along with four chairs. A flat panel TV hangs from an arm on the back bulkhead, an Xbox hooked to it. Otherwise it seems fairly empty- the curtains on each rack are thrown back, revealing unmade bedsheets, and two of the racks- the top and center on the left- are empty, their matresses uncovered.

Stasya looks at her watch before turning to leave. “The skipper is probably in her office, if you want to go see her. I don’t have time to walk you up there, but it’s up by the bridge, you can ask for directions. Drop your gear in the life support shop before you go up there, but she’s reasonable enough that she won’t chew you out for wearing your flight suit around the ship unless you’re grounded.”

You nod.

“You have any questions for me before I leave?”

“Do you know how long it should be before I get my RIO?” You ask. “It takes time to integrate a crew and-”

She nods. “I know, I’m plugged too. And I’m not sure. Best guess is we’ll have someone from the replacement pool later today or early tomorrow with the next greyhound flight. And before you ask, no, I don’t know who it is. But I’m sure your guess is the same as mine.”

“Yeah.”

“Well, at least you got along with them well enough that flying with one of them won’t be so bad.” She offers. “I have work to do. Get yourself squared away. And don’t forget to go see the skipper.” And with that, she leaves, the hatch clicking closed behind her.

You suddenly feel very out of place, standing in the empty squad bay with your flight bag in your hand. You start to notice the little personal effects on the racks- an Ipod on one, the headphones a tangled mess laying on top of a copy of “The Eagle of Alaska”. Another rack holds a battered teddy bear, one eye gone and the other replaced with a shining metal button that’s been worn smooth by age. A deck of cards and a couple witch comix copies sit on the table, while the Xbox controllers sit on top of the console, the athletic tape wrapped around them worn down by use.

The locker you pick- one of the two with the door hanging ajar- smells of Lysol, having probably been cleaned out shortly before you arrived. You stand there for a second after dropping your flight bag in there- your sea bag will follow you down shortly enough, once it’s unloaded from the cargo pod in your Fenrir.

It’s quiet in the bay, too much so for you.

[x]Go draw linens and shit from the supply office

Normally, bed linens would have been left folded on the foot of the rack, but you’re guessing that no one bothered to go replace the ones that would have been there in the short time since the accident.

It takes you a while to find the supply office- The Nimitz-class Saratoga, CVN-74 is significantly bigger and slightly harder to navigate than the Coral Sea was. Eventually you make your way to the supply office, located fairly closely to your squadron bay, thankfully enough.

The petty officer on duty in there looks you up and down, and manages to remain professionally bored as he hands you the requested sheets- two sets, since you figured you’d draw your RIO’s on the way down anyway.

“You’re Garcia’s replacement?” He asks, his voice rather neutral.

“Yeah.” You respond, tucking the folded sheets, in their packaging, under your arm.

He shakes his head. “He was a good guy.” He says, after a second. “Damn shame.”

“Do you know what happened?”

He shrugs. “I was off duty up on the island watching when he came in, yeah. He came in too low and too hot, started yawing like this” He says, using his hand to illustrate. “You could see him try to correct, but then he lost the centerline engine and you just heard this thud and nothing. Big old column of water came up just after that and they hit the sirens.” He shakes his head. “He was a good guy. Good luck with the squadron.”

“That bad?”

He shrugs again, the action seemingly one of the only ones he can make. “He’d been there a long time, most of them looked up to him like a father. Big boots to fill, even for a Bishop.” He says, reading the name plate on your flight suit, his eyes going kind of wide. Even now, twenty five years on, the Bishop name is a good one in the navy.

1/2

“Laroux-Bishop.” You correct.

His eyes narrow as he looks at you again. “Laroux? You don’t mean-”

“The mother of night is my mom, yes.” You respond, used to the question by now. It was merry hell for you at Annapolis because of it too- with parents like yours you were expected to excel in everything you did.

He shakes his head and finally grins. “Ain’t you gonna be the popular one, then?” He says.

You’re mostly covered between this stuff and the stuff in your sea bag, so you shake your head.

“Well, if you think of anything, let me know.” He says, walking past you to open the hatch to the corridor.

You nod, stepping out back into the corridor in time to almost step into a pair of witches- identifiable by their conspicuous lack of pants, heading the same way down the corridor as you.

They both stop, looking at you and the linens under your arm- putting two and two together. Neither say anything and turn around to go back the way they came.

Well, Frank had something to prove a lot of the time. His gran said men shouldn't fly, witches said mixed units shouldn't work, his commanders and enemies said he should be dead.

Morgan Leroux-Bishop (if I read that right earlier) on the other hand has high expectations put on him because of his parentage. He's obviously done pretty well, but is that because he's actually as good as people think, or does he push to meet those expectations?

He can't take too much after Maman, he's in the sky after all. But, y'know, maybe being able to go from friendly to terrifying is genetic.

This actually brings a question to my mind though, I don't really recalling it before, but are witches actually big on bloodlines? I mean, their abilities are hereditary seeming, but I don't recall if like they ever went out of their way to matchmake per say. They hold grudges, that's for sure. Do you think young witches are literally out there hunting for the seed of Laroux-Bishop?

[x] let it go- they just lost a guy they looked up to by the sounds of it and you’ve gotta give them time

You decide to let it go- they did just lose a guy, and you guess it’ll take them time to get over that enough to feel like you’re welcome. You’ve heard stories from your mother about when they’d lose someone and how it always felt like the replacement was intruding when they showed up, and weren’t worthy of sleeping in the same rack.

Of course, she always also pointed out that regardless of how they felt, they still had to fight alongside the replacement, and that eventually they were family, too.

Carrying the linens back to the squadron bay, you find them still empty. You put one set at the foot of the bottom rack, taking the empty top for yourself. It only takes a few minutes to make the bed and get it squared away.

Stepping back for a second to cast a critical eye over your work, you’re happy enough with it- it probably wouldn’t pass an inspection at Annapolis, but they tended to use calipers for measuring there, and more than once you got in trouble for being a sixty-fourth of an inch off. Personally, you felt you’d done damn good for having to eyeball it.

There’s a knock at the hatch that interrupts you- it’s standing open, so it’s someone that doesn’t belong here. You turn to find a seaman standing there with a seabag slung over his shoulder. “Lieutenant Bishop?” He asks- you nod without bothering to correct him. “This is yours, sir.”

He sets the seabag on the deck just inside the hatch, “Chief Williams would like to see you sir, when you get the chance.” he adds. “He’s on the hangar deck, they just moved your bird down there.”

He hesitates a second more before speaking again. “If you don’t mind, sir, what’s it like? Being plugged in, I mean.”
Plugged in, or even just plugged- the term for having the VDNI implants like you do- is a bit controversial. It’s almost never seen in the civilian world, and still very rare in the military. The newest generation implants, like yours, are smaller still than the earliest generation, more powerful and capable- and once they’re mated to a fighter, they’re extremely hard to get to work with anything else. In theory, they give you an unprecedented level of control over your aircraft.

In practice, though, you still use conventional controls more often than not, instead using the link to simply expand your situational awareness. Even the new models can’t eliminate the mental fatigue of controlling everything through the link, and, while you don’t deal with the migraines dad complained of occasionally, you do still use more than your fair share of aspirin.

[x] you’re indifferent- you knew what you were getting into when you signed the release forms.

You shrug. “I knew what I was getting into.” you say after a second.

He nods, seeming to accept the answer, such as it is, and turns to leave. He stops as he does so, shooting a glance your way, before stepping to the side of the passageway to allow two girls past- more witches. The first- a taller girl with a slim figure and short cropped silver hair stops for a second in the door when she sees you, while the other, a tall brunette, just glides past you, as if you aren’t there.

You give the silver haired girl a grin- kind of relieved to see her. “Hello, Ana.”

“Morgan?” She asks, sounding surprised. “Why- “ She shakes her head. “What are you doing here?”

“I think you know.” You respond, gesturing at the rack.

“Does mom know you’re here yet?”

You shrug. “She’s aware.”

Her eyes narrow. “You haven’t gone to talk to her yet, have you?”

You shake your head.

“Don’t be like that, Morgan.” She says, walking into the squad bay finally and starting to pull off her flight gear- unlike you, hers isn’t all controlled items, and some of it just stays with her. “You’re only our half-brother, but-”

“I’ve been busy.” You offer, cutting her off. “I only just got down about an hour ago.”

“you flew in?” She asks, and you nod. “San Diego?”

“JBLM. My bird is brand new.”

“So you took the Fenrir.” It’s not a question- she, like her mother, doesn’t necessarily like the VDNI hardware, and the fighter that requires it.

You don’t respond, just standing there.

She sighs, closing her locker and turning to face you again, walking over finally to enfold you in a hug- one you return. “I’m glad you’re here, Morgan. I really am. But I wish it could be under better circumstances.” Her shoulders slump for a second and she has to blink away tears. “C’mon, let’s go see mom.”

She doesn’t give you the option of saying no, instead grabbing you by the wrist and tugging you out of the room to follow her. It’s nice having one of your half-sisters here, kind of. You’re glad, though, that it’s not one of the snakes.

>>2135548

Jesus Christ how horrifying.

And that's it for the night!

I'm going to keep my options open re: Pateron, but at this point I don't expect that to go anywhere. That's alright, I kinda like my job, if I can get out ahead of the fabricators it'll be smooth sailing! haha. Course, we could go to war in Korea, but let's not get on that topic!

I'll answer any questions you guys have as long as it's not going to be a spoiler (this early, I can't imagine anything would be, but you never know). We'll shoot for one run a week, on Saturdays (Tuesday is out- I have to be up at 0445 to make it in on time right now, but maybe if and when we drop back to 40 a week we'll see what happens)

In the mean time, I hope you guys enjoyed the (short) intro here, we'll be playing through a bit more of Morgan's character in the next thread, and getting going again! I'm going to try and apply some stuff I learned since 89, so hopefully this all runs better and is more enjoyable overall for you guys!

Anyway, till next time gents!

Is Stasya and Lilla seeing anyone?

Did Wendy finally find a man?

I could just go back in the archives and check, but Ghost I don't suppose you could remind us all on the final tally of all the Bishop clan?

Do you already have names for everybody?

>>2135560
How many kids do Frank's brothers have? Or is that being left up to mouse and merc?

Glad you're back, ghostems. What's the US space navy look like so far?

At least we aren't going to experiment with VDNI mindlinking shenanigans.

Last thing we need is to have Newtype sex.

>>2135582

We don't have a backseater yet, don't get ahead of yourself.

>>2135567

1. Right around Morgan's 10th birthday- by that point it was clear enough and he was starting to ask questions.

2. Lilla is married, Stasya isn't and, if rumors are to be believed, never has.

3. Wendy is quite happy doing what she's doing! She's one of those irrepressibly happy people, and it's wondered how she can be so happy when she's clearly very lonley- lives alone, and when she's not on the road, she doesn't really have anyone to see, outside the Sharks and Joe.

>>2135569

Three adoptees: Stasya, Lillia, and Natalya.
Ice had two, Slider had five, Katya had one.

Plus there's Morgan, who kinda bounced back and forth between households as he got older.

so, ya know. lots!

>>2135592
Whatever happened to the Bishop brothers?

>>2135560
Cheers boss

>>2135578

Correct. Anya wanted to stay with Colonel Lee and work on his warbirds, and eventually agreed to be adopted into his family after no surviving records or family could be found. She's still there, in California, though the colonel is gone.

>>2135580

You'd have to ask them.

>>2135581

Very limited. the Fenrir is technically aerospace capable, but it's not SSTO. There's an 'advanced' shuttle program in operation, some larger stations in earth orbit, and a tiny research station on the moon. Musk has launched his first mission to mars, but there's no manned presence there- yet.

>>2135594
>inb4 one of them is still fighting the war of '89 because nobody told him it was over.

Ouch, I do hope Stasya will have someone like Ice's grandmother.

How old (estimated) are they, and does Lilla have children?

So Wendy is banging the sharks and joe?

So what was the backlash about finding this out. I imagine Frank was very upset.

>>2135597
Have you been reading any quests while you've been away? If so then would you recommend any of them?

>>2135592

>we are now playing a man with 3 onee-sans, 8 imoutos, 1 Maman, 1 Fronk, 3 "Aunts", 1 Jessica, 2 Uncles, 1 Merlin, and is cousins with the sherk family.

Yeah, so stoic and always has a knife seems about right.

And if Stalin's Psionic Lich should rise from the tundra and point his bony finger of Soviet Doom at us, we should respond with "Meh, I've seen worse at Thanksgiving".

>>2135592
Is the Colonel's daughter a spinster now? IIRC she was still looking. And is Anya married as well?

also Natalya?

>>2135597

>not an SSTO
...but can it into space with, say, drop tanks? Or A2A refuelling?

>>2135600

Stasya and Lilya are in their 30s, and neither have children yet. Frank keeps saying he's not old enough to be a grandfather yet. Lilya laughs at him when he does. He worries about Stasya never finding anyone though.

Wendy isn't seeing anyone, currently, and as far as anyone knows, hasn't ever.

about finding what out? He knew about Morgan- Maman wouldn't keep his son from him, even if she did keep her promise. He didn't exactly agree with her plan to keep his lineage quiet, but eventually agreed when she convinced him it'd make Morgan's life easier, at least in the short term.

>>2135601

Kinda-sorta, but not really. I still follow Maverick hunter quest, HC is a great writer and I wish I could be more like him. I follow KCQ, of course, and am an active writefag for that, but Deme hasn't run in a gorillion years.

past that, honestly, not really. I used to follow a bunch on /tg back when we were there, but since the move I haven't really had a chance. Pilot quest looks.. eerily familiar though, haha!

>>2135597
I'm currently in the sleeper berth of my truck, as my old man does his shift, rolling along in Wy, burning through my roaming Data to read this.

And it's nice to see you wiring again, man. Like a warm blanket.

Hope you feel better soon, Ghost.

>>2135611
Good to have you back Ghost, I always enjoyed these quests.

How good is Morgan at evasion and keeping a straight face? or are we fleshing him out with our votes?

>>2135611
I meant about having a bastard. I imagine that dinner talk between Katya, Ice, and Slider was interesting,,,,

Huh, I guess Stasya has high standards when it comes to men?

Oh and did Maverick created or adopted spawn of her own?

>>2135611
I've actually read a bit through Pilot Quest, and I also think that it's a bit familiar. But the players had the choice of USAF or USN and he rolled with their choices. So I can't really chalk it up to plagiarism.

>>2135603

The colonel's daughter did eventually marry, and inherited the ranch under the condition she also let her sister stay. Anya eventually did move- about 700 yards closer to the flight line, in a house built for her on site.

She's unmarried, but has a long term boyfriend in the shape of a CAF volunteer mechanic and airframe guy. No children. (She's... touchy, about sex)

Natalya is single.

>>2135606

It gets to space on a booster, same as the shuttle. the sara carries a pair of the boosters, just in case.

>>2135619
Hah. It's the same old issue, though I appreciate it. I'm glad I could provide some entertainment- Driving through Wyoming sucks. I'll never forget that stretch of 90 where I lost about... four hours just staring at the console of my pickup.

>>2135625
Kinda glad to be back! I've been agonizing a lot about doing this again, but got some wisdom at work about it from my crew lead.

Morgan can be really damn cagey if he has to be- consider who he grew up with!

>>2135626
Ah, yes, that. Yes, it was.

Stasya has astronomical standards when it comes to men. That and honestly, she hasn't bothered looking.

Mav did indeed eventually adopt- she and youngspawn had plenty of opportunity to do so postwar- there were quite a few war orphans.

>>2135635

Oh no, no, I don't mean that at all! haha. Just some of the names and faces, is all- honestly I kinda enjoyed what I read when I was checking it out.

>>2135636
So how is Frank's married life doing? Is it stable?

Is Natalya the same as Staya, astronomical standards?

and who did Lilla marry, and Frank's reaction and did he put him through the wringer?

Ah, I missed the whole quest! Good to see you running again, Ghost!

So what were the other fighters than the one we chose? What are their roles/capabilities?

>>2135636
Did Anya suffered similar shit that Raikov did?

>>2135638

Frank's married life is stable and happy, yes. A bit busy- several of the girls still live there when they're not on a cruise- but it's a stable, healthy home by most standards of measure.

Natalya is really very otherworldy and tends to freak potential mates out too badly to find one that sticks around. She chalks it up to people being weird, though, and doesn't waste too much time on it.

Lilya, perhaps predictably, married a pilot, and eventually moved to the east coast after she left the navy (He's still in). Frank didn't actually do much- he didn't have to, as the threat of three angry witchy mothers kept him on his absolute best behavior with her.

>>2135646

the F/A-02G is the Wyvern in current squadron service, where it's replaced the A-6 and F-14. it's the navy's primary high-performance multirole fighter, and incorporates most of the 'regular' improvements made to the Wyvern-Merlin during the war, plus about twenty five years of technological improvement since then.

The F/A-27 is a 3/5ths wyvern- it's smaller, lighter, and slightly less capable, but it's also cheaper and somewhat easier to mantain. it forms the bulk of the navy's multirole inventory, and replaced the Hornet almost entirely. It's a single seat aircraft.

>>2135649
Arguably worse.

Huh, Does Frank worry about Natalya as well in this regard?

Also funny thought, do Lilya and Stasya are still good at causing fires? when trying to cook?

Also what is Bridgette's status in the Bishop household?

>Arguably worse

Whelp...is she taking help?

Wait.. Ghost div is back in action. and i missed itgah

>>2135636
Are you planning on reading more quests now that you're back, or are you gonna keep up the hands off approach?

>>2135681
What is the social dynamic/hierarchy/relationship between Stasya/Lilya/Natasya with the rest of the siblings?

>>2135693
He does a bit, but his stance is 'if she's happy, then I can't complain'. Natalya, of course, even after all this time, is incredibly hard to read, so he's never sure.

They eventually learned to cook, Lilya eventually becoming quite good at it, while Stasya is capable of feeding herself and occasionally cooking something decent, but tends to not when she can avoid it.

Brigitte is considered an Aunt... one that Ice and Slider may be somewhat standoffish with, but it otherwise welcome to visit occasionally.

Anya isn't getting professional help for it, no. She considers it to be fairly minor, as does her boyfriend.

>>2135700

I might- the big issue there, as with running, is one of time. I'm pretty wiped out after work, and tend to get home tired enough to just shower, eat, and vegetate for like 2-4 hours before racking out.

>>2135681
Nice to have you back Ghost

How's Merlin doing?

>>2135711
So Frank doesn't Believe Stasya is happy?

Huh, i thought the opposite would have been the case. Considering what I remember rereading the sessions.

Though I'm starting to get the feeling that Stasya is a father-con.. Father-complex?

How is Morgan treated among the '"Aunts' does he hold anamosity towards Frank? or is it awkward.

>>2135693
Did the CIA ever find out whether Konstantina's kid might be Frank's?

Is she still obsessed?

>>2135711
How are the other nations of the world (specifically Europe, the former USSR states and Japan) doing?

Guess its time to re-read 89.

I cant remember all the dynamics.

Frank - Gnome -
Merlin - best copilot ever - NOT FOR LEWDS - messy breakup? - Magic Missile
Ice - The BOSS - ropes - Russian Princess
Slider - Snek - the sidekick - vanilla - pranks - projected punch
Katya - wingwitch -
Wendy - British sub - The Bosses maid - Not A Doormat.
Bridgette - Scary witchy woman lady form the swamps
The twins - um... Rescued via outflying.
That russian girl -

>>2135713

Yeah, has Merlin made the world Macross and/or Gundam yet?

>>2135762
She certainly got the skintight/form fitting uniforms part down.

>>2135713
glad to be back! I hope I can do this more often, but we'll see. Maybe I'll win the lottery! haha.

Merlin's doing... well. I've had it commented at me that, everything considered, she came out of the war remarkably intact. Haha!

>>2135742
No and yes. You'd do well to keep Morgan away from her... or not.

>>2135746
That's a bit much to cover in a short post. the USSR hasn't recovered entirely, but it's well on the road to recovery. Putin is still in charge, but there's more trade with the west, and somewhat greater freedoms. His biggest worries are the post-war flight of Russian witches and that the country's GDP is still rather small compared to the west.

>>2135762

Merlin has turned out a few more striker designs. one of them is a space-capable variable unit, yes.

>>2135769

>You'd do well to keep Morgan away from her... or not.

>"COME BUTCHER-CHILD, EMBRACE MAMA STALINKA"

And this is just another reason why Morgan sleeps with a knife.

>>2135769
Why will she kill Morgan or try to seduce him? or offer her daughter to her.

Has Frank met them or has Natalya kept tabs on her? like pen pals or something?

>>2135769
Since its 2016, how many movies or short series/netflix shows shows of Frank's exploits?

Are there any focuses besides and Eagle of Alaska book, like him adopting Lilya and Staslya, or his romance life in movies or tv-shows?

Do he and rest of the family watch these and what are their opinions?

>>2135580
>>2135594
As was stated in the epilogue, Rex has twin sons who (un)fortunately may have picked up his penchant for attracting younger witches. One decided to continue his parents tradition of serving in the Air Force while the other one ironically seems to be becoming one of the next big football stars.

In terms of his professional life, at this point Rex had finally been badgered into taking a commission after he got too old to continue field work. He works as a trainer for PJ recruits now.

So as someone who didn't see 89 through to the end, yet knows a good deal about modern military aviation, what should I know about the technology advancements that have been made? Clearly, we're in some sort of advanced fighter that we control through help of implants, but what is there beyond that? How have missiles advanced? Presence of lasers or other directed energy weapons? Railguns or the like? What fits on a plane? Are we just using a standard AMRAAM equivalent and a Sidewinder equivalent?

>>2135806
If I remember correctly, we have a few SUPERWEAPONS from Ace Combat such as the Stonehenge Railgun Defence Systemwhich was made to counter Alien invasions.

>>2135806
Lasers, EMP weapons and railguns have shown up, if i remember correctly. Also some sparkly magical bullshit that Merlin developed that allows Ace Combat missile counts to be possible.

Can you share anything about Jessica? Is she still in Japan?

>>2135780
Well, that'd depend on how you do, wouldn't it? Haha! if the son surpasses the father...

And no, Frank's never met her child.

>>2135790
A fair few. They tend to cover all the major points in the war for frank- Alaska, Berlin, Crete, Poland. They do watch them when they come out, and tend to provide color commentary.

>>2135806
More or less. The AMRAAM is still in service, along with the Sidwinder replacement, the AIM-95D AGILE. Dogfighting has a much larger place in setting, due to the presence of witches- fighter on fighter combat tends to be very fast and very lethal as a result. DEWS and Railguns exist, but are in very limited use as both require a witch to operate.

The Fenrir you fly we'll get more in depth into next run!

>>2135879
Deme REALLY likes his tenticles. and Maids. And tentacles with maids. I am more ambivalent.

>>2135918
She is! Jess is kind of the national 'big sister' figure to Japanese witches in general, and IJN ones in specific. She's surprisingly well-regarded (For a westerner), but her days of actively flying off a carrier deck are pretty well over.

After it's formation, the ROKAF inherited a lot of former IJN and IJA aircraft and equipment- stuff that had been assigned to Korean units or left there. They currently operate primarily tomcat E models, though they're also buying F/A-27s and working on their own indigenous fighter program. the North korean airforce operates largely chinese types, with a handful of fandances.

>>2136158

too lewd.

>>2136201

Well, prosthetic are just that- there's no augments yet. Most prosthetic devices aren't 100% capable replacements yet, but they're close- call it 95% of natural function at this point. the big one right now is that damage to the spinal column isn't necessarily a debilitating injury. VDNI is incredibly rare outside the military (and inside it as well- only the Fenrir requires it in USN service)- there were a few F1 racers that had it, before they were banned, but that's effectively it.

>>2136147
Huh any particular favorites adaptations among the family, do they tend to prefer the more accurate ones or something like Michael Bay with lots of explosions and Frank kissing one of the girls with a American flag in the background.

>>2136147
>Deme REALLY likes his tenticles. and Maids. And tentacles with maids. I am more ambivalent.


What about if ice or Wendy is wearing a maid outfit?

So half-siblings are off limits to lewds, right?

Last thing we need is a child whose DNA comprises of 50% Frank.

>>2136670

If we want to make a pact that sisters are not for lewds now's a good time to establish.

Ghost is not helping with this image though. Also now I learn if /qst/ does spoiler tags

>>2136704
>inb4 second cousins are fine due to sufficiently diverse genetics.

>>2136670
>>2136704
I wonder how many of our other squadmates would turn out to be our relatives. Frank's clan is already huge and Ghost might introduce more sisters just to mess with us.

>one squadron witch who's confirmed not a sister
>two more are unknown
>our RIO is probably a witch (due to Fernir being based on Wyvern-Merlin) - unknown

>>2135592
How did Natalya got adopted anyway. Wasn't she some top secret super witch?

And why did she choose frank? Or her logic?

Did she get along with status and Lilya because of their Russian bias?

>>2136754

Well, the ship we're on is veritably crawling with relations all things considered - we've established two sisters on board, and since Ana said mom (and if I remember the end of '89 night) Ice is the skipper.

I'm going to guess there aren't any more sisters on ship, but given how Morgan expressed anxiety I would not be surprised if we also find a Snek-child on this boat. Which would be terrifying. Only slightly more terrifying than if there is a shark-cousin aboard.

>>2136803
Yeah I think theres at least one snek on the boat, could be coincidence but I notice that theres a stuffed bear in the squadron berth - slider also had a stuffed bear.

>>2136839

Alright, let's think about this logically. If we're going generation xerox here, the squadron should contain at least:

x1 Russian Princess (already seen)
x1 Snake
x1 of Maverick's adoptlets
x1 relative of Goose
x1 Katya-spawn
x2 Sherks
x1-2 Foreign national ads

I feel like we need a bingo card

And our new RIO is a test-tube superwitch grown by Merlin to protect the son of the house of Bishop.

>>2136670
We can't lewd them, but we can watch them be lewded and/or lewd the same person.

>>2136919
We will be the scary half-brother who can and will stalk them in the night to keep any lewdity limited to hand-holding.

we're also half-brown, giving us an intimidation advantage

>>2137111
Meh. I'm not sure we'd be that closely protective. If they hurt our half-siblings, sure, but probably let them do their own thing.

Your spoilered text actually raises the question, just how brown is Morgan? I suppose it would be interesting to play a browner protagonist.

>>2137111
>>2137169
If I remember correctly Bridgette was just tan, so eh.

>>2137179
Did you completely miss the whole Cajun and deep into voodoo? It'd tend to be an indicator that she's not just tan.

Brigitte was also an animu catgirl so that's not saying much.

We should assume we are similarly anime brown until Ghost clarifies on the chart.

>>2136612
Depends on who's watching. The quints love the Michael Bay shit, Frank has no opinions, Katya and Ice live the sappy love story shit.

>>2136630
I make no comments.

>>2136771
Natalya was a top secret super witch! Same program and template as Konstantina, next generation unit. And you guys played Frank, you know how he was/is

things were rough between her and Stasya and Lilya for a while, yeah. They still don't talk too much.

>>2136803
Pretty well- the Bishop clan actually put the navy in a bit of trouble regarding crews and staffing. there's not that many compostite squadrons, even fewer all witch squadrons, and there's a lot of bishop witches...

>>2137190
I always pictured Maman as Dark Vanilla- so Morgan is probably closer to Bedouin dreams or so?

>>2137259
>Katya and Ice live the sappy love story shit.
I can just imagine them telling Frank to take notes when the actor playing him comes up with a good romantic one liner

How far in 2016 are we at the moment?

Will there be Friends?

>>2137309
Korean War when?

Fuck yes. Strike 89' rides again, although it is 16' now. Ghost I got a question for you, what's the cause of the tensions that would require the U.S in this timeline to start moving on a war footing. Is it the norks trying to build up a nuclear arsenal like OTL?

>>2137309
>>2137318
All in favor of Morgan crying like a bitch over Grape-kun's death when the time comes?

>>2137328
So, Korea was part of Japan up till the early 90s- After that, the emperor granted them independence (While also taking as war reparations the rest of Sakhalin and part of the Kamchatka peninsula from the USSR.)

While, initially, Korea was united, a civil war in the middle 90's ended in the two state situation that exists IRL. the Norks are slightly better off- they still receive significant support from China- but the south Koreans are still considered to be the dominant force of the two.

However, North Korea (In setting) has been making a lot of noise recently about 'expelling the imperialists' in the south and reuniting the nation, and, as a result, the president has ordered two carrier battle groups to the sea of Japan, with Japanese blessing.

An idea I know will never go through.
Perhaps Morgan has NO desire to wind up with a harem like his old man? Like, is actively opposed to the idea, after some bad experiences when he was first dating? Witches be crazy, and all that.

>>2137346

Have we had as much trouble in the Middle East in this timeline?

I ended up making that bingo card after all, though I felt like I was reaching after a while. Feel free to make suggestions (or just make your own the website's right there)

>>2137259
What's sider's opinion on the movies, does she get any screen time at all now that I think about it?

Though I find it amusing each movies has a heroine focused and the kids compare and contrast which was snappier that dad did.

Also thanksgiving must be awkward for the girls then but then again Natalya was a bit weird

9/11 happened, and there are OIF/OEF vets among the fleet, yeah.

>>2137422

Slider tends to laugh at them- and yes, she's represented in a few of them.

Thanksgiving for the bishop clan tends to be odd, simply because it's one of the only times a year the whole extended family gets together.

>>2137451
I can imagine.

Where does Frank live? Is there some estate now?

Oh and is Rufus's dead or is he some immortal dog that haunts slider and her children at night?

>>2137451
How have Frank's parents taken to having so many grand kids?

>>2137470
I'm more interested their reaction post war when he brought three kids and three girlfriends and one is pregnant

>>2137345

>sees Tsuchinoko for the first time
>immediately reminds him of his snek siblings

>>2137457
The family lives in a fairly large compound near Wildcat lake, Wa- The Sara is homeported out of Bremerton. However, they also have an apartment in Dallas (Frank works for chance-vought, which still maintains their plant there). They'd originally planned to get land in Wyoming, but that fell through when Tabitha got command of the Saratoga- they all agreed it was more important to them that she be able to accept the job, which meant moving closer to the base.

Rufus, sadly, is gone- Died in 2003.

>>2137470
Slightly overwhelmed by it- they knew they'd have a few, with four kids of their own, but they never expected quite this many!

>>2137704
>Rufus, sadly, is gone- Died in 2003.
Any puppies?

>>2137733
Nope. No lineage of the great dinosaur-dog remains.
