Well, this is the ace from that hive that just wants to fuck everything up. We're probably good if we don't stir, since there's nothing to fuck up about something that's already dead.

Now, if the assimilation hive comes to pick up spoils, we'll be in trouble, but that won't happen because other hives steer clear of the overly destructive one this one is from.

"O" is "Oscar" today, but it was different in WW2. What was it?

> You need to get out of here.

No. You are not dying here.

You turn over onto your chest, yelping in pain. You start crawling- no- dragging your way away from him. You hear some rocks break and explode. You look back. A spear-like leg has broken free from a pile of rocks. No, no. You continue crawling. Come on. Come on.

The entire pile bursts. Menelaus jumps at you, hissing and clicking in your ears as it jumps on top of you. It spears you through the shoulder. You scream as you tossed aside onto a rock, breaking and cracking more bones.

No. Darn it. No. You struggle, but every bit of your body refuses to move. Menelaus skitters towards you, slowly baring its great stinger and two sword-like appendages at you. Now you know why the people of the Ostmark call him the Impaler.

You shut your eyes. This is it.

Commander Maxine Bucholz. Sorry.

You open your eyes. Menelaus stands over you. This huge, insect-like, scorpion thing which has been known to slaughter people left and right, and even kill Neuroi if unattended is not killing you.

Its eyes glow red, then turn upwards towards the sky.

What is that? Is that Rachel? Is she back for you?

Menelaus swipes the ground before you, then skitters away into the darkness.

You look up to the witch. It's getting hard to breathe. Your vision is blurring.

Go on. Reach out. Every last bit of energy you have is put into raising your hand, to reach out to her. She has to help you. She hovers there, observant. Don’t do that! Help! You try to muster the will to scream it, but then she simply flickers away.

No. No!

Her blank face suddenly comes into your view. She places her cold hand over your mouth.

It’s Neuroi.

No. Fight! Don’t pass out. Fight, fight!

Don’t pass out. No. Your vision gets darker, and darker. No. No. No. No.

No.

You sniff the air. Is that… cheese? You sniffle at the air again. Hm… There’s also the smell of white sauce as well. Same they use in Venezia. It smells heavenly. You open your eyes to hard concrete walls. You look down. Your wounds are healed. You feel amazing in fact! You feel like running a marathon now!

You look to your left, to see a little kitchen of sorts set up on a counter. Carla Buscaglia is cooking something in a big old pot. She wears an apron over her blouse, and her typical peaked cap of the Venezian Air Force is tilted on her messy hair as usual. She whistles a bit as she cooks, then looks over at you.

“Ah, you’re awake!” She places her hand over her heart. “You scared me a little. You’re just in time actually!” She grabs a plate of pasta, then takes a large spoon and pours a hefty amount of white sauce over it. “It’s my recipe! The last airlift brought in a healthy amount of foodstuffs so don’t be picky, alright?”

You blink, confused. You were just about to die earlier. She sits by your bedside, with a fork. “Come on!” She pouts mockingly at you. “Do I have to feed you like I do Karen? Fine, if that is what it takes!” She plants the fork into the pasta, then brings the hot food over to you. “Here comes the train, choo-choo!”

You open your mouth and let the train come into the tunnel. It appears to be a train of delicacy considering how amazing this is. Carla always did seem to have a knack for making good food out of nothing. You open your mouth to say “What happen?” before you get shut up by more food coming into your gullet.

“Nope. Don’t talk, eat.” Carla is stern as she places the plate onto your lap. “I’ll explain.

“You’re back at the Flak Tower. It’s been two days since you left us, and that meant we were short two witches and a Jeep Jockey. In that time, we managed to open up an air-bridge of sorts between Venezia and this here Flak Tower, get more supplies, reinforcements, and other things in. Jeep Jockey was recently airlifted out, going back to serve with the Army Air Corps in fact. In other news, we still haven’t found the gun, and for all intents and purposes we’re considering it lost to the Neuroi. General Blackstone and Army Group South have been sending in reinforcements and other materiel to help strengthen the place but its only a matter of time.”

You nod. “Okay. How did I get here?”

“It’s the damndest thing,” she says. She shrugs at that, finger at the brim of her hat. “We just found in the forest nearby when the radars picked up a Neuroi signature. You were lying under a tree beneath that very blanket in fact.”

You look down. It’s just an old, scraggly grey blanket. You wouldn’t use this at all, this is a peasant’s blanket. But yet…

Carla sighs. “Anyway. Doc says there ain’t a scratch on you. In fact, you’re at peak condition.” She pokes at your chest. “Which is why you need to eat.”

You huff. “I’m not a child, Carla.”

“The way you strut, I wouldn’t have noticed,” she says happily. She giggles a bit.

Everything went to shit and it was our fault wasn't it?

> “Where’s Karen? Aren’t you two normally together?”
> “How’s the rest of the Wing been?”

You start breathing in pasta at an exorbitant rate. You have indeed found yourself quite hungry. “Sho-“ You swallow deeply. Nope, a woman does not talk with her mouth full. “So. How’s the rest of the wing?”

Carla shrugs. “Doing fine, a little demoralized though considering yours and Rachel’s absence. Uh…” She purses her lips a bit. “Well, Rachel actually got demoted for her little adventure, but nothing else thankfully. And Hermine actually got promoted!”

You blink. “Really?”

“Yeah.” Carla snaps her finger. “Rumor is, Bucky’s grooming her to be a Squadron Leader. I don’t blame her, she’s quite the Witch.”

You sigh. “Well… I suppose it’s nice Lieutenant McCawlay got off lightly.” You notice something off however. Something… missing. “Where’s Karen?”

“Oh, her?” Carla says, “She’s out a patrol flight with Foobs and Daisy.”

“Without you?” You have to admit. It’s actually quite strange not seeing Carla without Karen.

“They have to leave the nest at some point.” Carla sighs. “I must admit to you, Rookie. I didn’t have anybody to mentor me when I was in her boots.” She smiles, wistfully. “It was just me, my Striker Unit, and a whole lotta Roy to deal with. Wish I could’ve been closer to the other pilots of my old unit honestly but what can you do?”

You nod. “Yeah. I suppose.”

“Yep. Plus, that little crash with the Baltimore didn’t help matters,” she says. “Thankfully, nothing lasting but… eh.” There’s a knock at the door. “I’ll get that.”

Carla stands up and walks over to the door as you continue cleaning your plate. The door creaks open to reveal a very mad-looking Commander Bucholz.

Uh oh.

She looks at you. “Sergeant. I see you’re awake.” She looks down at Carla. “Could you give us a minute?”

Carla nods, looking at you with a “you’re so boned and I’m sorry I can’t help you” look. She quietly slinks past the Commander and into the hall. The door shuts behind her as the Commander walks up to your bed.

…

You look down. It just now occurred to you that you’re actually quite naked under these sheets. Every little happy feeling in your muscles is now gone. Gone like the wind.

“So. Sergeant.” Commander Bucholz wears only her service blouse, with rank on the collar. Her usually neat hair is scuffed and dirty. “Do you have anything to say for yourself?”

Only question here is who will have the dubious honor of being the first person to execute a Witch.

>>34440579
I'll take the first one, most definitely. The second one won't happen because Rachel wouldn't have dropped a rank, she would have dropped a head.

>>34440573
Daphne isn't so shallow

Plus hair grows back

>>34440681
The entire relationship hinges on Daphne getting off on Rookie's hair and Rookie being slightly creeped out. She IS that shallow, anon.

> “I accept any punishment, ma’am.”

“Is that so?” The Commander takes a chair then sits by your bedside. She leans forward, looking you in the eye. “Truth be told, I really wish you had failed. It would have made punishing you more easier.”

You tilt your head. “Commander?”

“Not only did you, Lieutenant McCawlay, and the Corporal steal a Kubelwagen, some ammo, and several guns, you also left a gap in our squadron. The Corporal, he’s Army Air Corps, I believe his wound and his return to the rear area is punishment enough. Lieutenant McCawlay, she is a veteran of many battles, I cannot afford to lose someone like her. You… you on the other hand.”

You swallow deeply, here it comes.

“You three saved over 7,000 prisoners.” Oh. What? “All of them have been returned to duty. Not just that, but you have secured a vital linkage between Karlsland and the Ostmark, however small. This cell now has a fighting chance against Hive K-2. And it’s all thanks to you three.”

Well. You smile a little. Well! This is-

Rookie, pls. Get your mind out of the gutter.

>>34440944

“But.” She crosses her arms. “It remains to be seen about your punishment.” She leans back, her glare melting into a more saddened frown. “You know, when I saw Johannes walk over the hill, carrying an MG-42, messy and dirty like a hog. I thought I was dreaming. But when he held me and I held him. He started crying actually. And that made me cry. And it also made Karen and Daisy cry as well.” She pauses a bit. “I don’t know what would’ve happened if he were to shed this mortal coil.”

You nod at that.

“Sergeant. You’ve made this a very tough decision for me. Lieut-“ She groans a bit. “Flying Officer McCawlay took the blame for all of the actions that occurred. However, I still believe you should be punished because I believe you followed her of your own accord.”

With that, she reaches into her breast pocket and pulls out a folded piece of paper. She takes out a pen as well. “This is a letter from the Academy. Stating that I have the right to end your service with the 509th JFW at any time. Once I sign this, you will no longer serve with us, and you will be returned to the Academy. The last plane from here leaves today in fact.”

You stare at the letter. It can’t be.

“I want to know why you did this. And I want the honest truth.”

> Why?

>>34440969
>"I couldn't leave Rachel behind"

>>34441233

Either way, I'm looking forwards to it like you wouldn't believe.

> Why?

“I did it for you.” The Commander blinks, sitting up. You continue with, “Seeing you torn up over Johannes… and all that. I just wanted to help you. It is my duty as a witch to help everyone, and that includes my Commanding Officer.”

…

Commander Bucholz takes your hand, slowly closing her fingers around yours. “Sergeant. I’m touched. I really am.” She frowns. “But it’s not always about me. It’s about the rest of us. Johannes…” She sighs. “I-… I could get over him, eventually. I wouldn’t be able to get over the loss of two of my best witches.”

You bite your lip. She called you one of her best!

Then she leans over, and softly places a kiss on your cheek. You feel the heat rush upwards, ready to burst. After parting her lips away, she lingers there, her hot breathe caressing your ear. All you can do is sit there.

And with that, she plants the letter on the bed, and signs it. “You’re going back to the Academy.” She folds the letter up and places it back into her pocket. “I’ll give you a few hours to get your bearings, and pack your things.” She quickly stands up and walks out of the room.

…

Carla pokes her head in. “So. How bad?”

>>34441460

>>34441460

>>34441568
... Shit, you have a point. Maybe that'll come after the episode where the Neuroi come back, Rookie grabs a set of strikers and fights despite being sent home, and Bucholz rescinding the order to send her home and deciding a different punishment is in order.

>>34441568
It's a deserved punishment.

>>34441460
> “Bad.”

Have we told anyone about the Neuroi?

Are humanoid ones known about yet?

>>34441650
Rookie didn't really get a good look at the Neuroi that "rescued" her at all, so there's not much to report. She probably doesn't even know who actually helped her, since it's unlikely they would do so.

As for the humanoid ones... they should be known, since this takes place after the first season (Gallia has been retaken).

>>34441650
They'd probably just write it off as a hallucination.

> “Could be better.”

You blink, shaking a little. “It… it could have been better, Carla.” Carla comes over and takes your plate. “I am to return to the Academy, and leave the 509th.”

Carla frowns. “Oh… oh dear that’s-“ She tips her hat upwards. “That’s quite bad. I think.”

You shrug. “Well, the Academy isn’t so bad. I like it there, I’m the Class Representative. My roommate Rosemary should be finishing her rotation anyway. Maybe we’ll see each other again, that-“ Your vision gets blurry. “Th-that would be nice.”

“Oh, sweetie…” Carla leans over and hugs you. You grind your teeth, sucking in air as you try to hold yourself together. “There there…. Let it out.” She pats your arm. “It’s okay. It’s okay. Those who say crying is for children are children themselves. “ You bury your face into her chest, sobbing quietly into her apron. “There, let it out.”

“I…” You shudder. “I-I don’t want to go!”

Carla continues hugging you, quiet. Your only comfort.

A few minutes pass. You start feeling a bit better. Carla says, “You know. I think the others should be back from their Patrol. Maybe go say goodbye to them?”

…

…

You sit in the back of the Mack NO truck “Brandenburg” where some of your personal effects were stored. You pack the items quietly. Everything from your books, to your tea packets, to your spare uniforms, and even the blanket that you were found in. You sigh.

You pat your breast pocket. Hm? You reach in to find a stack of baseball cards. DeSoto’s baseball cards. You place them back. Maybe you might find him again when you return to the Academy. What else, what else?

Your sidearm, of course. You search around.

… Where is it?

“Looking for this?” You look back to see the gigantic Johannes Bucholz. Now dressed in Fallschirmjaeger uniform, and carrying an MG-42 over his shoulder. He holds out your revolver to you, smiling a little. “I cleaned it for you, figured I would return it.”

You take it gently, smiling. “Thank you…” You check the rank on his shoulder. “… Corporal.”

“Please, call me Johannes. Call me whatever you’d like in fact. I owe a great debt to you,” he says. “My sister must be very grateful to you as well.”

He'll find out on his own, maybe that way he'll go to bat for us and convince the Commander otherwise.

>>34442393

>>34442451
That won't help: probably the biggest reason Bucholz is sending Rookie back is to protect her.

>>34442517

>>34442617

> Go back to packing your things

You nod. “She is. I’m sure. I know she missed you very much.” You turn and go back to packing your things.

Johannes says, “Well… okay. Do you need any help packing?”

“No, thank you, Corporal.”

…

“Well, okay,” says Johannes. “Could I at least know your name?”

You smile, then turn back to him. “I’m Sergeant-“

“Bucholz!” Johannes turns to someone out of your view. He sighs, rubbing his nose.

“I’m sorry,” says Johannes. “I must go. But you must write to me. I will write to you, okay?” You nod. He’s got somewhere to be at least. He seems like a nice man at least. You can understand why losing him would crush the Commander. Once everything is done and packed away, you throw the strap of the bag over your shoulder, then hop out of the truck.

Right in front of Hermine Graf. She smiles at you. “Hey, honey.” You sigh as she clasps her hands in front of her, polite. “I uh… heard you were leaving us.”

It's not her fault.

>>34442881
We've given her more attention than she deserves. Let's actually ignore her for once.

>>34442824

>>34442878
She stole the Commander from us!

And our cheese! Was that her or did I make that up in my head? Whatever, her fault anyway.

>>34442824

Yeah, no

>>34442824

>>34442964
Fuck that. Graf is an annoying character, and not in an entertaining way, and I'm tired of German shoving her down our throats. I want her to fuck off.

>>34442824
> "Yeah."

>>34442964
I want Rookie to have a bitchy side, she's been through a lot and she doesn't like Graf anyway.

>>34442990
That's just, like, your opinion man.

>>34442990
I want you to fuck off

>>34442824

>>34442990
You again?

I'm tired of you.

> “Yeah.”
> Walk past her

You nod. “Yeah.” You then walk past her.

…

“I know you hate me.” You stop, then turn around. Graf stands there, arms crossed. “Now, I know you’ve been through a lot and you might not want to talk, that’s fine. Just…” She frowns, looking down at the ground. “I hope you do well at the Academy. I’d like for you to stay if at all possible.”

You frown back at her. “What do you want from me?”

She shrugs. “A friend. A rival I’ll take too.” She smiles a little. “I’m whatever you’d like for me to be.”

You huff. “Figures. Can’t decide whether or not you want to be nice, arrogant, or some strange combination of the two.”

She offers her hand. “Just take care of yourself.” You look down at her hand.

> Don’t shake her hand

You look down at her hand, then shake your head at her. She looks surprised, for a second at least, then places her hands behind her back and nods. “Very well. So long then, honey.” She smiles warmly at you. “Next time I see you, I expect you to outrank me.”

You roll your eyes at that, then turn around and walk away. Graf. Damn her.

…

…

On the makeshift airfield is one little plane, a C-47 Skytrain. The pilot and the co-pilot discuss things with Commander Bucholz. “Listen,” says the pilot. “We gotta get into the air now, our window is closing so if you have anything left for us to take, let us know now.”

Commander Bucholz nods. “I have a girl who needs to go back with you all. You should have some space.”

The co-pilot says, “It’s a Dakota, we can take anything in there.”

You walk over and then salute. “Ma’am.” The Commander nods, reaching into her blouse pocket and then handing you the letter, along with a separate piece of paper. “What’s this?”

“My letter of recommendation,” she says. You smile at her a bit. “Just in case you need it.”

The pilot says, “Well, come on. We gotta get moving.” You nod, then start to follow him aboard.

“NO!” Daphne flies right into your path, arms wide. “You can’t go!”

You blink. “Daphne…”

“I won’t let you!”

The Commander narrows her eyes at Daphne. “Fairbanks. Move aside.”

Vera steps in as well, taking your arm. “I will not let the Rookie go either, not without a fight!”

Karen takes your other arm. “Rookienee-san did nothing wrong!”

Well… technically you did.

Daisy, Rachel, Graf, and Carla step in behind Commander Bucholz, surprised. Commander Bucholz says, “She is to leave.”

Daphne says, “The Rookie is my friend. If she goes I go.”

We haven't died yet. That has to count for something.

>>34443955

Oh, I have read MMQ. But that's a different kind of story, and I actually like the plot of Rookie being sent back.

>>34443619
>> Stay quiet
stare at our feet

try not to cry, fail, cry

>>34443904

He has a point, though. Graf does nothing of note, yet gets praised all around, promoted and groomed for a position she's done nothing to prove she could handle, while the soldier that rescues just about 7000 soldiers to be reinstated back to duty gets kicked out of the squadron and sent back to the academy. It's jarring because we never see her do anything that would actually earn that kind of treatment or unreal praise.

>>34443999
>and I actually like the plot of Rookie being sent back.
You are retarded.

How the fuck does it make any sense or improve the story? You honestly think "Your a Strike Witch, and on the frontlines doing your part! Except now your not, fuck off you got replaced by your rival and now your career is over and your friends are going to fight on without you blahblahblah"

Fuck that noise

>>34444010
Who gives a shit.
I just hope we don't magically get to stay because pretty please, this is the most engaging the quest has been so far and that'd be cheap.

>>34444010
Fucking exactly, classic DMPC mary sue bullshit and we have to have it shoved down our throats while we get told to fuck off and go home.

>>34444044
You are one of those "I picked the option that would get us killed because I though it was interesting" faggots aren't you.

Fuck off

>>34444010
The fact that it's from Rookie's POV probably helps reinforce that viewpoint.

Rookie dislikes Graf and has an inferiority complex.

>>34444042

Not that anon, but I agree with him. It's obviously a short term thing unless you actually think this is going to turn into "Strike Witches: Shitcanned forever edition"

>>34444010
Her first appearance?
How about actually following orders?

>>34444042
It's almost as if there are consequences for going AWOL, endangering the mission, stealing military property, and repeatedly ignoring a superior's orders. We did good work here and that's the only reason we're getting quietly shuffled off instead of court martialed.

>>34444044
>Who gives a shit.
I fucking give a shit, because I enjoy this goddamned quest, where clearly you don't give a fuck.

>>34444010

She killed big neuroys and didn't disobey her commander officer and risk things up because she was selfish.

>>34444076

I don't fucking trust Schteel with PLOT after MMQ.

>>34444094
Except this is a fucking STRIKE WITCHES QUEST, that shit is what fills the anime for fucks sake.

>>34444010
The guy you're talking about here. Rookie getting sent back to the Academy is, in a way, an extremely light punishment. I mean, Academy is basically their officer training school, which means Rookie will come back as an officer rather than enlisted. The main part of the "punishment" is that she has to leave her friends and the Commander behind.

And really, Rookie deserves some sort of punishment: she did help rescue a huge amount of soldiers, but did it through disobeying tons of rules and orders.

And I'm not going into Graf right now because I made it clear several times why I don't like her, and you don't really seem to have the same reasons I dislike her.

>>34444080
She's also not a dirty fucking snitch like Rookie is.

>>34444075
No I'm not. I simply think that not only would a short separation from the crew help both Rookie's and their characterization, but also that if you're gonna take the whole insubordination thing this far it'd be really dumb to go back on it now. I mean, I can't fathom why anyone would think a spell away letting the characters ruminate on the whole situation and allowing for some interesting potentual development for Rookie would be worse than 'lel just kidding is all fine!'

If you don't trust the QM, don't follow the quest.

It is as though none of you watched Strike Witches.
This shit happened to Yoshika no less than two times, too, and she always found her way back to the 501st. Who says Rookie won't do the same?

>>34444137
>that shit is what fills the anime
You mean like the part where the protagonist went AWOL, was confined to her room, went AWOL again, and was barred from further service and used as a reason to disband the 501st?

>>34444173
I follow this because I was enjoying it, then Graf the Magnificent turned up and that ain't happening anymore, but goddamnit I want to enjoy this

>>34444137
Did you bitch this hard about the PTSD soldiers getting maimed and worse on our plane-mission? Cause that was far less SW than this which, as anon noted, is fully in line with the literal plot of the SW anime itself.

>>34444174
FUCKING THIS

The kind of shit we pulled? Its a fucking Tuesday for Strike Witches.

It's fucking EXPECTED IN GODDAMNED CANON

> Stay quiet

You look down, staying quiet for now.

Commander Bucholz says, “Fairbanks. Move aside.” Daphne, Vera, and Karen are as immovable as stones on a beach. “Do not make this harder.”

Vera says, “We will defend her to the end.”

The Pilot of the plane yells, “Hey, have your heart-to-hearts quicker. We gotta get the hell out of here!” He crawls back into the plane.

Carla looks over at Karen. “Karen, come on. The Rookie knows what she’s doing. Let her go.” Karen grips your arm tighter. “Come on, Karen.” She looks up at you, and you give her a knowing look. Karen gently lets go then stands by Carla.

“Vera.” Graf is quite stern with her. “Come on. Commander’s orders.” Vera puffs her cheeks out, glaring at her. “Don’t make this harder on her.” You shake your arm a bit, pulling it free from Vera. Vera looks down, then kicks at the ground and walks away.

The last obstacle is Daphne. She still holds her arms out, determined. “Please don’t leave.”

Quick teary hug.

>>34444240

Hug the shit out of her

>>34444140

Well, I'll admit that it's partially because she seems to be getting a lot of praise and now even promotions over doing nothing, at least nothing the PC hasn't already done, but also because she doesn't seem to be written to infuriate the PC. Rather, she seems to be written in a way to be as infuriating as possible to the players as opposed to the character we're playing. She hasn't really given the actual character a reason to hate beyond "you should hate her" being sort of mentioned in the narrative.

>>34444240
Seconding >>34444258

Don't do anything, don't walk, just hug her and cry

That's also a problem, though. Not seeing the reason, and the reason not being revealed to us, just makes the promotion all the more jarring since it was just kind of dropped in the middle of us being told off for disobeying orders. It's polarizing, and seems more like it's meant to inspire hatred from the players' side of it rather than that of the Rookie.

>>34444240
seconding >>34444347
>Walk up to the Commander and kiss her hard, full on, tongue and all

>>34444283
I don't really find her infuriating at all. I'm not a big fan, but more because I don't really find her interesting. And the idea of being mad she got promoted seems strange to me when, while she hasn't shown a lot to us since her appearance, she by all accounts follows the rules and whatever she did that got her promoted in the first place happened out of our sight precisely because we DID break the rules. In the end I wouldn't have minded if she didn't get promoted either though, doesn't seem very necessary.

>>34444240
>> “I have to.”

>>34444240
> “I have to.”
> “We’ll write each other, okay?”

>>34444174
I'm actually expecting Rookie to stay away a tad bit longer, and for something to happen regarding Best Girl.

>>34444283
I'm just going to quickly reiterate why I don't like Graf and stop, since German has had his fill of Graf nonsense for today: introduction was screwed up, inconsistent characterization, half assed backstory thrown in to justify Rookie's dislike for her, poorly executed Mary Sueishness, and won't stop bugging us. It's mainly that last part that's pissing me off right now, since I'm trying to accept that she won't be leaving.

>>34444347
>>IF WE LEAVE WE DON'T HAVE ANY DIGNITY
No, getting dragged kicking and screaming by MPs into the plane is leaving with no dignity.
Being forced into the plane at gunpoint is leaving with no dignity.

>>34444405

every goddamned fucking time she is onscreen she is getting praised for doing fucking nothing, for having a stick up her arse, and worst, the Rookie gets fucked over just by her sheer existence

I have to say, I'm not really impressed with the direction this is going. The officer that takes full responsibility for everything gets a demotion, but we get kicked out. What's up with that? It seems like we're getting the bad end of this deal by comparison, some seriously disproportionate punishment all things considered.

My guess is that

>Rumor is, Bucky’s grooming her to be a Squadron Leader

is hinting that she'll be made lead of another squadron, which would write her off or at least diminish her role in the quest.

>>34444469
That officer is a decorated veteran, we're an enlisted scrub.

>>34444347
>IF WE LEAVE WE DON'T HAVE ANY DIGNITY
What's the logic here?
We accept our perfectly fair punishment (which from a non-meta standpoint is as much a benefit, given it means Rookie gets a safe period training for officer rather than risk her life as a Witch) without excess complaining, sounds like the dictionary definition of dignified to me.

>>34444240

> “I have to.”

You know, considering the tone, that kiss thing doesn't really seem like the best choice here.

>>34444240

No kissing.

George Washington and Everyday GI Joe fresh off boot go on an adventure. Guess who gets the short end of the stick?

>>34444498
>That officer is a decorated veteran, we're an enlisted scrub.
We ain't a scrub anon, we're also a decorated veteran...

But instead, we don't even get to stay with the fucking squadron, we get told to fuck off, pack our bags and go home, while the LT stays with the squad and keeps fighting.

For fucks sake, at least let us fight for it.

>>34444240

It's probably that one anon who's going nuclear and insulting everyone who disagrees with him and screaming about DMPCs.

It REALLY is as though none of you watched Strike Witches.

>>34444347
>Walk up to the Commander and kiss her hard, full on, tongue and all
Do this, because fuck all you cunts if we have to take this shit GS is ramming down our throats without letting the Commander know our feelings for her, It's way past time we did.

>>34444572
Bucholz obviously sent us off because she was worried about Rookie getting herself killed, not because she 'deserved' it or the like. And it's pretty hard to disagree. I imagine there were other factors involved regarding Rachel.

>>34444598
Marseille worked because she was only on for one episode, she was legitimately a foil for Barkhorn and Erica, she had personality, and her character was consistent.

>>34444598
I really didn't care about her one way or the other but I'm so fucking tired of people screaming about how much they hate her that I've started defending her

>>34444572
We are a scrub, you can probably count our shoot downs on one hand, and we have a single award for the stunt we pulled at the academy. Rachel has fought on multiple fronts, seen multiple campaigns, that's what I mean by veteran. Someone needs to get punish, and be seen to get punished, and given the call between her and us, it's us that they can afford to loose for a bit.

>>34444599
Jesus if you're that upset just leave and come back later with a cooler head.

>>34444598
She FAR more likeable and better in Afrika Doujin. Like, far better. Maybe having Kei on her side keep her on check.

Fuck you german

>>34444598
If we'd reacted to Graf the same way Erica reacted to Marseille, I'd bet it would have gone a damn sight better, but /tg/ does tend to grab on to any bad impressions and massively over react to characters. People still talk about Rookie the snitch for fucks sake.

>>34444694
Vell, fick ya too englishe.

>>34444701
>People still talk about Rookie the snitch for fucks sake

That's mostly a bad joke and excuse for Rookie to get bullied.

>>34444701
The worst part of Graf is the people that hate her and won't fucking shut up about it

>>34444701
Rookie the snitch is actually endearing in that it's a negative trait for a main character. And plus she snitches on herself.

>>34444572
I have a sneaking suspicion that we're going to come out of the academy as a commissioned officer; we're a Sergeant now, which I believe is an NCO. It might end up being for our benefit; a sort of officer training course.

>>34444499
>We accept our perfectly fair punishment (which from a non-meta standpoint is as much a benefit, given it means Rookie gets a safe period training for officer rather than risk her life as a Witch) without excess complaining, sounds like the dictionary definition of dignified to me.
I agree.

What I don't agree with is suddenly going "oh no, this means we can't ever have a chance with the Commander, oh well lets chase dick"

Fuck that, we either kiss her now and let her know our feelings, or the moment we get back, we tear her clothes off and fuck her senseless on the runway right then and there.

>What I don't agree with is suddenly going "oh no, this means we can't ever have a chance with the Commander, oh well lets chase dick"

Maybe I missed it with that one anon calling everyone faggots, but no one said anything about chasing dicks.

>>34444762
>"oh no, this means we can't ever have a chance with the Commander, oh well lets chase dick"

That's just ridiculous, now, and I loathe Graf myself. Aside from the Belle mission it's stuck to the feel of SW, and all of them aren't going to die because Rookie's not there.

I'll miss Daphne the most

>What I don't agree with is suddenly going "oh no, this means we can't ever have a chance with the Commander, oh well lets chase dick"
Where the hell did this come from?

> “I have to.”
> “We’ll write each other, okay?”

You hug Daphne. Her arms are out anyway, you might as well. “Sorry, but I have to. You write to me, okay?”

Daphne stands there, refusing to hug you. “I’m not hugging you because you’re not going.”

You break from the hug, holding her by the shoulders. “You come visit me, okay?” You adjust your bag and a bit then step past her and onto the plane. You turn back again to face the entire squadron. Daphne is in full tears now, with Daisy coming to care for her.

Commander Bucholz stands there, then gives you a salute. You salute her as well. The rest of the squadron give you a salute as well, as best they can.

The C-47 starts up, and you step around to take your seat around all crates and other cargo in the plane. You sigh, leaning back against the wall of the plane. Well, back to the Academy. Maybe if you’re lucky, you’ll get rotated into another Joint Fighter Wing, or into a Tank Squadron.

The tears streaming down your cheek won’t let you go without a fight though.

I wouldn't worry too hard on that front, after MMQ Schteel said that he really didn't like running suffering and that which is why I suspect it came to such an abrupt end and he's said before that he intends SW to be more action/ adventure/ yuri and generally pretty close to the canon style.

>>34444782
>No said this, no one here is going to do this, are you fucking stupid?
Anon, go and reread what anons have been saying ever since we started the rescue, thats exactly what they've been saying

>>34444797
>Problem is, with the way GS railroaded MMQ, I am seriously concerned about him killing the Commander and our friends off offscreen, while Graf endlessly skyrockets as usual

Seriously, anon? I think most people knew that MMQ was going to basically end in a reenact of All's Quiet on the Western Front. Schteel also acknowledged that MMQ was nowhere close to his best.

Do you have any faith in Schteel at all? If not, why follow a quest like this? People can save themselves a lot of trouble by dropping quests when a QM loses their trust.

Would have worked with that Avatar quest fellow anyway.

…

…

The low hum of the propellers keeps you awake. You’d like to take a nap, but it’s far too late now. So much has happened now. Why would she send you away?

Maybe it was to protect you?

Maybe she really does love you? It would be fraternization given rank and everything.

“Hey, Joe.” The pilot looks over at his co-pilot. “I’m getting some turbulence.”

“Probably nothing,” says Joe. You can feel your ears twitch a bit. Why would she just leave you to-

Wait.

You look out the window.

…

It’s that thing. It brings up its arm, then unfolds a finger from its hand over its mouth. It appears to be telling you to be quiet.

Go reread the posts in the last two threads.

>>34444898
> Stay quiet
>Wave at it

>>34444898
>“There’s a Neuroi!”

She's gonna kill everyone

>>34444898
>> Stay quiet

>>34444873

We didn't even try to kiss her after all those votes...

Fuck this I'm out.

>>34444898

Don't panic.

For the love of God, don't panic.

>>34444898
>> “What are you?”
Check for other Neuroi

>>34444898
> “What are you?”

>>34444898
>> Stay quiet
geez. Before we got Daphne staling our hair, now we got Neuroi-ko stalking us.
please no install core on witches here. Not on blue board

>>34444797
While I disliked MMQ, tragedy was part of the concept there and not here, and also GS is probably not keen to revisit it any time soon either.

>>34444898
> “What are you?”

>>34444898
>Stay quiet
Wave. Watch. Double check that we still have our sidearm on us, just in case.

>>34444797
Looks like someone didn't know what the premise for MMQ was - A premise completely different from this quest.

>>34444898
> Stay quiet

>>34444898
>> “What are you?”
Check our sidearm and make sure there aren't more Neuroi out there

>>34444941
Good

Panic? Panic.

>>34444873

Fucking seriously?

After all this shit, you go and do that?

Thanks for killing any hope and ruining our dreams

>>34444941
Good riddance

>>34444898
> Stay quiet
Well if Best Girl is asking us to keep her a secret...

>>34444941
Thank god

>>34444941
Don't come back.

>>34445001
Are you some kind of mentally challenged poster anon?
Rookie imagining what her future posting might be without any knowledge of Bucholz' recommendations or indeed Schteel's intentions for the plot doesn't indicate where things are going.

>>34444884
Well this fucking thread ain't at all consistent with that

Since before the rescue, actually.

>>34445001
Rookie's being dramatic and self pitying, don't take that as word of what's going to happen.

Don't celebrate too early: I'm still here.

FREEZE

Yes, yes it is.

>>34445063
It really is anon.

Don't the door hit you on the way out.
