Hate's right, of course – you're shooting blind, but judging from his reply, you hit the mark. Lance Corporals (and their equivalents) are the soothsayers of any base; the wizened sages who consult tea leaves, SMS messages, facebook rumors, the way birds sit on a wire and the way PFCs chitter and jitter when they see chevrons walk through a door. From these auguries they usually know what's coming down the pipe before the damned commissioned officers do. Hate already knows there's an e-mail in circulation; he just doesn't know if YOU know yet.

But that's okay, because you're angling at a slightly different point. “Lets just call it... Shrodinger's Marine,” you say easily, bracketing air between your hands to determine the box you're about to put him in. “We leave him in a box, which happens to contain an 'orphan' lower.”

A silence stretches between you both, and Hate finally raises an eyebrow.

“That's it,” you reply. “There's nothing in that box but the lower.”

“Then that's not Shrodinger-ish at all,” Hate replies instantly, “because there's only one... oh.”

“Yeah,” you reply.

“Well,” he replies. “Yeah. Pretty... pretty much that.”

You nod thoughtfully, thinking.

Agh, I wasn't expecting this today!
I've been compiling a list of things that will possibly appear in Shipslut quest, but it's nowhere near complete, I've still got several more goddamn navies to get through. Here's what I've got atm.

Likely to appear/ships we'll need
Anything that served in the IJN
USS Atlanta CL-51 (Anti aircraft ships, bitch!)
USS Oakland CL-95
USS Iowa BB-61 (Abyssal? Who knows, something fucky is going on.)
USS Enterprise CV-6 (Abyssal? She never died a hero's death, and was denied the chance to become a museum ship, but after all that she did for her country, she was scrapped! I'd be mad as hell if I was The Grey Ghost.)
USS Langley CV-1 (Aircraft carriers, bitch!)
USS Lexington CV-2
USS Ranger CV-4
USS Yorktown CV-5
USS Nevada BB-36 (Famous battleships, bitch!)
USS North Carolina BB-55
USS South Dakota BB-57
USS Missouri BB-63 (The Jap butthurt would be too immense to pass up. Not to mention, she stood by and watched as Arizona rose again to leave and fight, would you deny her the chance to do the same?)
USS Pennsylvania BB-38 (She was denied her chance to fight with her sister in WWII, would you deny her the chance to fight with her now?)

Important ships
HMS Dreadnought 1906 (THE Dreadnought battleship.)
USS New York BB-34 (You tellin' me you don't want to see these old ass tugboats come back to life?)
USS Texas BB-35

Modern Ships likely to appear
USS Gerald R. Ford CVN-78 (Should be finished by 2018, not due for full service till 2019, but hey, abyssals! The Gerald R. Ford-class is the new hotness.)
USS Nimitz CVN-68 (It's the fucking Nimitz.)
USS Winston S. Churchill DDG-81 (It's the Royal Navy ship, except it's actually American.)
USS Kidd DDG-100 (Because Admiral Kidd. Imagine, Arizona being rescued by the ship bearing her Admiral's name.)

Time to play shipslut quest while going through EVERY FUCKING NAVY THAT PARTICIPATED IN WWII.
I'm wise to your bullshit, Planefag, I will predict your moves before you think of making them!

“So how's Willie doing?” you ask.

Hate shrugs as he continues to tuck in, already eying your plate dangerously. “Same ol. She's literally a fucking boot, you know?”

“Hate,” you say patiently, “you're talking Marine again.”

“Fukkin New Guy,” he clarifies. “Willie's case, she's a fuckup and she knows it, and that makes her so shaky she can't not unfuck, I mean, she can't fuckup the-” he pauses, holding up a finger to ask for a moment. “She can't not fuck up,” he says, “so she can't unfuck herself.”

You nod – you're familiar with the problem. Moreso than you'd ever admit, in fact. “Y'think you could do anything about that?”

He shrugs. “Ahguess. She's okay but she drives me up the fucking wall sometimes, you know?”

You nod sagely, studying Hate closely. You can almost see his invisible antenna twitch as he realizes the wind has shifted. “Oh, Skipper, you're not gonna-”

“We have to do *something,*” you insist. “Unless you wanna start cutting up a box worth of grid squares and spooling up some goddamn shore line to go with that paint.”

Hate quirks his mouth, conceding the point – pranks like that have steeply diminishing returns, and that sounds dangerously like work.

“So we either need to bolster Willie's confidence in her performance somehow, or at least teach her how to hold her own against those damn torpedo cruisers,” you say, tapping your fork on the table in annoyance. “We've already got enough damn problems to deal with already, bringing American ships into Japan and expecting them to work together – and I can't fight their battles for them. She can play it prison-rules style or Elegant High-Class Bitch style, but either way, she's got to fight back."

Hate murmurs inaudible agreement. He's sitting up straight now – this is business. “Well, I could teach her some shit, no lie...” He sighs. “Dunno about combat drills, though. The dipshit starts shaking the instant she enters the range – only good thing to say is, she hardly ever muzzle-sweeps. She's got a hard time focusing on surface targets when she transforms and rolls out or whatever. Keeps watching the sky.” He frowns. “Do we really need her combat-ready?”

“Hate,” you tell him seriously, “there hasn't bee a war yet where the Admirals had half as many destroyers as they needed, much less wanted. And she's a Fletcher class – she's more modern and better-built than half those Japanese ships strutting around here. Yeah, we need her.”

Hate sighs with resignation, and you see him summoning his full strength. You can almost see a sketchy aura around him as he readies one last gambit to avoid this future that he asked for.

“I can give her some one-on-one or whatever,” Hate says slowly, “but... I was assigned to look after Sammy today.”

A cold stone of dread sinks through your stomach.

“... is this the true power of a Lance Corporal?” you say in meek awe, and Hate grins like the lazy motherfucker he is.

“She's been getting awfully antsy about meeting you, too,” he says, twisting the knife. “She's bitching that all the big ships are getting the attention.”

Which they are. And that's not her fault – it's yours. Because you really, really don't want to be in the room – or on the base – when the inevitable happens.

“Oooooorrrrrrr,” Hate drawls, “you could start delegating authority, like you're supposed to.”

“You-”

“You need more than a pet Corporal, skipper,” he says dourly. “As fun as it is to have most of the responsibilities of a butterbar without the pay grade, there's more than two people can do.”

“We've only got-”

“And how long is that gonna last?” he says. “Even if the CNO doesn't order us to start summonings... they're just showing up. The Corgis, for example.”

You blanch. “How many, now?”

“That'd require me rounding them up long enough to count,” he says, his eyes lidded with resigned loathing. “Sooner or later, skipper.”

You sigh. “Well, what do you have in mind?”

“Put Harder in charge of teaching Willie-”

“Areyououtofyourfuckingmind!?” you exclaim. “That's almost as bad as putting her with Sammy!”

Hate's eyes widen... and then he strokes his chin thoughtfully.

“You can't be serious.”

“Naah. Naah. Think about it.”

… you think about it. Sammy, well escorting a destroyer is LITERALLY her job. They'd make a decent ASW team; not even Willie can fuck up depth charging too much, and she's too flighty to be an easy target for torpedoes. She seems to jump if the crickets sing too loud, even. And with Sammy at her side... yeah. She might not earn respect, but she'll stop taking shit really, really quick.

Harder is... marginally more sane. More importantly, he knows things about destroyers no destroyer can know – he might be able to teach Willie from a unique perspective, which might give her more confidence. He's newly manifested, though – there's lots of unknowns in there. He might teach her something... weird.

“Just remember, Skip,” Hate says, watching you think. “I dunno who's gonna teach her High Class Subtle Bitchery. I'm a smoke-grenade-in-the-sealed-shitter kind of guy, you know?”

You give Hate a lazy smirk. “I've got that covered.” You *did* graduate from Annapolis, after all.

>>39075741
Nope. If you managed to get an oblique angle hit, the detonator would detonate.

The problem was that a fucking contact detonator should be able to detonate if it hits straight on. You shouldn't HAVE to do an oblique angle attack.

“Sammy,” you say after several seconds of contemplation. A slow, wicked smile spreads across your soul as you contemplate the hidden genius of Hate. Yes. Sammy. If there's anything that can give Willie confidence in her strength, it's the ant that moved the rubber tree plant to a deserted back lot and then fucking burned it alive while calling its entire grove out as pussies. Sammy is also... problematic to pair with an uncertain girl like Willie. Sammy has certain expectations of destroyers; expectations Willie isn't going to match. But if Willie can hang onto the tail of that comet for just a little while, it'll do her a world of good.

And hell, maybe they'll even hit it off.

You snort at that, and shake your head. No chance in hell. You turn your attention back to Hate, who's waiting with an innocent look. “Go ahead,” you tell him.

“Go ahead what?”

“Go ahead and do whatever you're being smug about.”

“... smug!?” he says with entirely too much surprise. “But sir, I was just thinking about what other delegations of duty we might make to assist you. You might want to assign a secretary ship.”

You sink into your chair as that entire impossible phrase soaks into your poor, benighted soul. “A what.”

“Secretary ship,” Hate says. “Goto's got one. 'Parrenlty they're so short on staff with security clearance for this crazy shit – that's also WILLING to work with 'em – that he had to assign a shipgirl-spirit-thangmobobber to handle some of the paperwork. I could interview candidates for you.”

*That* snaps your attention back to reality. “Wait, just what-”

“Oooooh, yeeeaaaaaaaaaah,” Hate croons under his breath, leaning far to one side, his eyes tracking someone in the room behind you. “Here comes a candidate now~” He pops out of his seat, slaps his cover on and double-checks it for a jaunty cock that shades his eyes just-so, and rollllllllls away from your table – it cannot be said that he was walking, for the speed of his footsteps seem to hold no bearing on his motive speed; like he's skating across the floor. In the distance you see Tatsuta and Tenryuu just approaching the food line as Hate closes in.

Smooth son of a bitch. Once upon a time – no, once upon a time you were a pencil-pushing, rank-climbing dildo, and now that it's lost the charm, you're too old to want that life, and not young enough to attract a wife. There's a french phrase for it, but you prefer the straight translation - “life is shit.”

With a sigh, you pull your cell phone out of your pocket and consult the day's calendar, already updated by The Alleged Secretary... maybe Goto's, if what Hate said wasn't shiggidy shaboody gonna git that booty excuses. According to it, Sammy would be available very soon, Willie already is, and nothing's scheduled for an hour or so – discretionary time to let lunch settle, or something.

Time to get going.

Same here. I want to be a writer, but "Journalist" sounds more like an actual job than, oh, literally any other degree my University offered.

While scrolling through today's schedule, you see that the CVs have scheduled practice at their own dedicated range. Yokosuka has one of those rarest and valuable of training facilities; a torpedo range tucked away into its own corner of the harbor. In this seabee crews have added wooden pilings decorated with large targets; almost looking like a long-range rifleman's shooting range at which the CV's unleash their odd “flights” of aircraft.

You tap your phone against your leg thoughtfully, and decide to pay them a visit. You'd like to see how they all stack up skill-wise, and you haven't seen Hornet since you arrived on-base. You worry about how much she broods; it doesn't do to ignore any of your ships for too long.

You retrieve your (damned) cane, deposit your half-finished lunch and Hate's emptied plate in the proper receptacles and you're just limping towards the door when you spot a girl in an unusually dark outfit heading for the door – a destroyer, based on her height. Her head's on a swivel, and she's got a brown paper bag in her hands, the rolled top twisting in a nervous grip. She slides up to the door, glances around, and slips out silently.

>>39077266

She looks a little like the glimpsed streak of terrified ship you saw bolt out of that tree last night – apparently the Corgis still have her scent. You fumble for your phone and jot down a note before striding out into the bright noon sunlight.

The training range can be heard further than seen; the high-pitched buzz of tiny engines ripping through the air like swarms of pissed-off hornets. Exactly like pissed off hornets; that's really what they *are.* There's no rangemaster present for some reason; just three girls bending their bows at the distant targets. Hornet is the furthest from your vantage point behind the wooden divider that forms the makeshift archery shack put up for the CV's use. It was knocked together from whatever was on hand; and there's a large knothole near one corner that allows you a decent view.

Hornet is furthest from your vantage point; her dark braids contrasting with Akagi's long, flowing locks. Kaga's nearest, her eyes sharp and focused, studying the results of the last run.

>>39077536
Well well, who's this?

At last, they reach for their practice arrows as one, nock, and release. The Japanese carriers move swiftly, almost fluidly – nocking the arrow with the bow above their heads, drawing and releasing in one motion as they come down. The arrows whistle away into the snarling buzz of practice planes as they repeated the smooth, well-rehearsed motion; moving with the grace of well-oiled machines honed to a razor's edge.

As their flights of miniature planes streak away towards the distant targets and mock-up ships painted on white boards, Hornet's aircraft follow – a straggling stream. As you watch she whips another arrow from her quiver. Unlike the Japanese CVs, she's holding her bow in front, turned at almost a 45 degree angle to one side. She nocks up, sighting down the shaft carefully before releasing. Her archery style is less formalized and rehearsed, and it shows in the poor cohesion of her launched strike.

The CVs stand silently as they watch their planes attacking. Kaga and Akagi's strikes hit their assigned targets perfectly, but Hornets trickle in, each of them attacking whatever the hell they see first. Kaga audibly sighs as she watches some of Hornets torpedo bombers bore straight in at a simulated ship – a small model anchored to the bottom – without bothering to split into two groups, or catch it at 45 degree angles. She glances at Akagi, who to her credit does not glance back.

Hornet stands stock-still, staring out at the targets. She's regal and quiet, but she's no Arizona – she can't hide her misery at the sorry display.

It does match what happened historically: Hornet was sunk before the US really mastered massed carrier operations (as opposed to the single-carrier operations envisioned by prewar doctrine). All Hornet really needs is the practice she never got before she was sent to the bottom.

And if Kaga or Akagi starts shit instead of offering to help? You can always point out that the first Japanese airstrike against the US carriers was elegant, graceful, coordinated, and 3/4 destroyed when the haphazard, piecemeal American air strike arrived.

Actually, you're forgetting the Battle of Coral Sea. They needed a night attack (which resulted in a few trying to land on the American carriers) AND a day strike before they got to the Lexington. Also, Swede Vejtasa was a boss.
That besides, neither strike on Yorktown actually killed her outright despite the reports of Japanese scout planes. Yorktown-class stronk.

But think of how happy she will be. Ashigara would love to be your secretary.

>>39077972
Probably should have clarified "first airstrike at the Battle of Midway". You know, the one that got 3/4 destroyed on the carrier decks of the Japanese fleet.

Hey angelfap, Abraham Crijnssen. aka the Dutch Ninja Ship, when?

>>39078096
Yeah, probably. Sorry for being overly-critical I guess. It's just...Engineers. We have an obsession with being technically correct.

>>39078085

Ain't seen her around before. Might have to keep a fuckin eye out.

>>39078085
She's not a bad choice, but there's also better ones.

Since our Admiral is kind of old as fuck, we need someone who acts mature too.

Go get the Houshou, Admiral!

It is useless as an anti-ship warship. Effective as a run that might have been, it'd be useless against the Abyssals. What's it going to do? Hide at them?
