“TEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATIME TEEEEEIIIIIITOOOOOKUUUUUUUU!”

You and Harder leap for the door as one, planting your shoulders against the flimsy hollow-core door (nice bid on that contract, assholes,) and lean against it without much hope. The doorknob makes a delicate tinkle as the cheap lock snaps under a shipgirl's grasp before the door opens a full three inches under Kongou's first attempt. You hear a feminine hmph! of frustration, then a deep intake of breath.

“Nooooo,” you intone desperately.

“KOOOOOOOOOON-”

“NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOO-”

“-GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-”

“NO NO NO NO NO NO NO-”

“DEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!” she cries, hitting the door with her shoulder. Harder is knocked across the room into a pile of discarded cardboard boxes, and you end up on the floor, back against your desk. Kongou stands triumphant, hand outflung in her characteristic pose, the splintered door hanging in two sad pieces behind her.

“KONGOU! HAS BROUGHT YANKEETOKU TEATIME!” She tugs a small cart in behind her loaded out with a full tea service - it seems to be silver, even. You see another brunette head peeking through the crack in the door, flashes of gold hinting at a similar rangefinder-headband like the one Kongou wears.

“And Haruna,” Kongou adds as an afterthought. “Come on, Haruna~”

Haruna comes, carrying a big basket loaded with what look like scones. She gives you an apologetic smile and helps you up as Kongou begins industriously clearing your desk - she's careful with the computer, but she's already shorn it of all its cables and tossed them in a jumble to one side. Before you can spin up your brain to form an objection, Harder rises like a thunderhead, a half-crumpled cardboard box over his head. He tilts it up slowly to reveal a thunderous expression.

“KONGOU.”

“That's my name, don't wear it oooouuuuut~” she sing-songs.

You watch Harder's youthful frame seem to expand with barely constrained rage, his cold eyes clearly calculating the optimum angle to launch his attack.

“Harrrdeeeer,” you say placatingly.

“She. Started. It,” Harder growls, his eyes narrowing on his target.

“Whoooo won the war?” you say soothingly.

Harder pauses.

“WHOOOOOOOO won the waaaaaar?”

“... we did,” he grumps, and lets go his wrath with a sigh. “I guess getting my asshole kicked square would make me a bit daffy t-”

“Are you Harder-san!?” Haruna interjects, dropping her basket of scones on the desk and dashing over to the hapless Gato boat. She leans over, hands on her knees to study Harder from disconcertingly close range. “Oh my, you *are* cute!”

“CUTE!” Harder exclaims. His brow furrows in thought. “Who said I was *cute*!?”

Haruna tilts her head. “I think it was Taka-”

“I'm not CUTE,” Harder decides vehemently, planting a finger on Haruna's forehead and slowly pushing her away. “Seriously.”

“TAKEASEATTEITOKU~” Kongou trills, seizing your arm and slinging you in an arc around the desk before you can squawk. You land in your chair, spinning three times before Kongou seizes the armrest and stops your motion facing your desk - now sporting a lacy tablecloth, with a full English... whatever they call it spread out before you.

“Ready to eat, yankeetoku?” She's leaning over the desk, hands still on your chair-arms, giving you a great view down her blouse, if you were inclined to look. You recline in the chair, springs creaking slowly as you retreat to a safer distance and give her a halfhearted nod.

“Good!” She plops down onto a makeshift chair made of two stacked boxes jam-packed with books. Haruna pulls up her own pile of boxes and joins her, graciously accepting a tiny teacup as Kongou pours one for you.

“Aren't you going to sit down?” Haruna asks Harder curiously.

Harder glances down at the desk from its left side, glowering over the everything, arms crossed... well, crossly. He cuts his eyes at you, silently asking if he should give these two battleship's the bum's rush. You tilt your head slightly, and he pulls up his own stack of boxes with a grump. Haruna places a teacup upon his lacy placemat and he flicks his eyes down his nose at it. Haruna tries to hand you yours over the desk, but you're too busy scanning the room. At last, you think to bend over and check the knee-hole of the desk, where you find Willie curled into a tiny ball, a terrified look on her face.

“C'mere, kiddo,” you say, holding a hand out to her. She gingerly slips her tiny hand into your big paw and you tug her out. When she catches sight of Kongou and Haruna over the desk she scampers about to hide behind your chair, peeking over your shoulder.

“So, ladies,” you say, steepling your hands in front of you. “To what do I owe the honor of this visit?”

“Goto blew her out th-”

“TEITOKU IS VERY BUSY TODAY SO I DECIDED TO SHARE THE JOY OF TEATIME WITH YANKEETOKU~” Kongou cuts her sister off brightly. You take a tentative sip of your tea and find it's the black kind; a nice strong flavor that always struck you as Coffee Lite. At least Kongou has good taste. Kongou matches your sip, and Haruna follows hers. You all turn to see Harder holding the tiny teacup at eye level and scrutinizing it suspiciously. He lifts his dubious gaze over the porcelain to the two smiling battleships.

He cuts his eyes sidelong at you and raises an eyebrow. You lift your shoulders in a tiny shrug and take a careful sip of tea.

Big sister worhship of Kongou + her terrible curry.

Both Haruna and Kirishima are the more normal of the sisters, but if the anime is right, they both have their odd streaks.

You're sorely tempted to inquire after Goto's method of removing Kongou from his office - it sounds amusingly pyrotechnic - but given recent events, it'd be wise to take the pulse of the base, as it were - get an idea where morale stands among the shipgirls.

“So... Kongou. How's life been, lately?”

“Really boring!” Kongou objects. “I didn't get into that big battle because I was still being fixed.” She pouts cutely over her teacup and sips at it with agitation. “Carriers hog all the big fights. I'm a fast battleship! I can keep up with the fleet! At least when Kaga's with them!” She hmphs and sips at her tea nosily, then snatches a scone out of the basket. Instead of eating it, she brandishes it at you. “And someone was playing music way too loud in the dorms this morning! It woke me up, dess!”

“I thought it was a nice song,” Harnua giggles. “I even looked it up.” She produces a slim smartphone from her pocket and taps the screen a few times. After a few seconds, the phone's tiny speaker begins producing tinny sounds.

“Thatsverynice,” you grumble as soon as you recognize the band, snatching up your khaki cap and smacking it down over Haruna's phone to muffle the blasted noise. “So, everyone's feeling okay?”

“FANTASTICO, DESS~” Kongou exclaims brightly, winking and giving you a big thumbs-up. “When Kongou's on duty, no imuoto goes unloved!”

You slide your gaze over to Haruna, who's looking down at her tea, her smile quickly fading.

“Well... that's nice,” you decide.

“Yankeetoku need not worry about us shipgirls!” Kongou declares, thumping her chest proudly. She pours you some more tea and sips her own contentedly. “So, Yankeetokou and Teitokou are getting along really good?”

“Yaoi,” Harder adds dourly from his end of the desk, still nursing his tea with a grimace. Harnua blushes and claps a hand over her mouth, and Konogu slides him a flinty glare before turning her sunbeam smile up to 200%.

“Yes,” you offer carefully.

“Aaah, of couse, Teitokou is such a wonderful Admiral, who wouldn't like him?” Kongou declares. “It's so great that you're getting along!”

Kongou might be... Kongou, but that repartee with Tatsuta the other day showed you she's not as oblivious as she seems. Even she can read the atmosphere a bit. She's angling for something.

No need to talk around Kongou like she's a little kid. Much like Naka, she doesn't need to keep up appearances in front of us.

Basically, do a polite but firm GAIJIN SMASH through the wall of stereotypical Japanese bullshitting about how nothing's wrong.

>>
>>43473544
10-20 years, usually. You can command a ship as a Lieutenant-Commander (~10 years in), but it'll probably be a really small and shitty one. Then you get to be a full Commander and move on to a frigate or destroyer, then up to Captain (age ~40) and command a DD or cruiser.

Note that you can't command a supercarrier this way. By law/regs, only aviators can be the captains of US carriers - part of the compromise that let naval aviation ever happen

It depends on the ship.

In the USN, Destroyers and Subs are commanded by Commanders (O-5), so like 18-20 years of service.

Cruisers are commanded by Captains, so something like 22 years.

Carriers are commanded by Captains, but the thing for them is that they are aviators that reach a point in their career in which the choose to either command an Air Wing and continue onto aviation commands or move onto command a deep draft ship (like an oiler) before moving onto commanding a carrier.

After a set amount of time. And there are certain percentages that pick up to higher ranks.

Well, remember that because of the minimum times, and passing over=discharged system, a given batch of officers/rank fillers tends to shrink over time.

IIRC, something like 90% of O2s make O3. But every jump in the latter shaves out more and more. Until only like, a few percent of the original annapolis class make the flag ranks.

Well... actually, they DO carry more than one WING. They usually have a fighter wing, an attack wing, an electronic-warfare wing, an early-warning wing, and maybe one other wing.

There's way more than that in a usual air wing.

Today there's usually 4 strike fighter squadrons of 10-12 planes each (Hornets, Super Hornets, and eventually Lightings.

A squadron of 4 E-2 Hawkeyes,

A squadron of 4-5 EA-18G Growlers

Plus a variety of helicopter squadrons which would tend to number alltogether some 21 choppers but some of them are based on other ships in the task force.

The Carrier Air Wings used to be bigger, because you know Cold War and all that.

Not... quite.

US carriers typically carry about 75 airplanes. (In the Cold War, it was about 95, but they reduced plane count for better operating conditions and reduced manpower requirements.) US carriers operate in Carrier Battle/Strike Groups of one carrier with its escorts.

In WW2, when the US did operate carrier task forces with 2-4 carriers per TF, US fleet carriers carried about 90-110 planes, light carriers carried about 50 planes, and escort carriers carried about 30 planes.

Slow down Kongou. He needs a waifu and she's probably it, but she's being overbearing. Too much "TEA TIME TEITOKU" and not enough actually, y'know, being there for him. The important part isn't waking up in the morning next to him, it's what happened on the way to that night of burning love.

The truth hurts, but letting this go on longer or telling her lies will only make it hurt even worse later on. And of course, once the war is over, and Goto is out of her chain of command or she's out of the JMSDF, the obstacle to her burning love is removed. So, she just needs to win the war to win Teitoku.

What's the option for "tune the volume down"?
>>
>>43474041
You can get a theater rank, which goes away when you leave the theater. When a draft is on (which I assume it is), you can also have a 'regular' rank and a wartime rank. For example, Custer was given the wartime rank of major general right before Gettysburg, but after the war he reverted to Lt. Colonel.

In a long war, you would get your regular promotions as well as you're theater promotions. During the civil war, the former was a "regular army" rank while the latter was "volunteer" rank. Thus Custer was a Lt. Colonel in the regular army, and a brevit major general of volunteers during the war. The higher rank is the rank you go by while you have it.

During WW2 it was regular army and "army of the United States" - the latter equivalent to volunteer rank.

So Settle could have been a Commander with a DD, then given a brevit promotion to full captain, and the theater rank of rear admiral. If that's what happened, then after the war he would revert to Captain, unless they made the rear admiral rank permanent.

I hate to be a bastard, but let's treat this like adult time. His hands are tied, and not in the fun way, until the war ends or she's not in his chain of command. Not to mention that he can't afford to be playing favorites. That's just the way it is, shitty as it may be for her.

But, add to that that he does have feelings for her, and that if she'd just turn down the volume a bit and stand by him then when the time comes she'll be perfectly positioned.

I've felt this coming since the Bonin Islands - Kongou's smarter than she lets people believe, and she's noticed how Goto's trying to support everyone and can't - so she wants to support him in turn.

But there is truth in Option 1 as well - make sure she controls her expectations.

I fully support this ship, and Goto seems like he won't be seduced by a little woe-is-me ploy. Hell, she might even have tried that before for all we know.

She can keep being all genki and shit, just ease back on the clinginess and let him come around.

Then add something like "I saw you with him after that phone call. I saw you after you visited Naka at the hospital. You've got more emotional range and more discretion than you pretend to. So just... ease off on the physicality a little. You know better than I do where the line is between "Goto grumbles but it makes his day brighter" and "Goto is genuinely uncomfortable"; stop telling yourself you don't, and stop worrying that if you let up on the effusive public displays of affection you'll miss your chance.

No. In the World Wars, it was true - the American method of defense is to have a civilian population that shoots sporting arms constantly, so they already know how to handle a gun; thus a small core of professional military men can train them to march in a line and obey orders in a few weeks without worrying about lots of weapon training. There's even a government program (Civilian Marksmanship Program) that sells milsup rifles to members of shooting clubs at-cost to promote the practice of sport shooting amongst the American public for this exact reason. It was the ultimate evolution of the American militia concept.

Post-WWII however, things changed quite a bit due to the Cold War. Aside from the rising importance of mechanized forces (aircraft, ships, highly sophisticated tanks and artillery equipment,) the constant risk of all-out war with the Soviet Union made the old US reluctance to keep a "standing army" painfully obsolete. That, and we're fucking rich. Training is mostly a matter of time and money, and time == money, so just shorten that to money.

And trust me, we've got plenty of fucking money.

Find out for yourself - Compare the number of weeks a Bundeswehr, Russian, Canadian, UK and American soldier will spend in training before being assigned to a proper unit.
Also consider that the raw quality of American manpower is sub-standard; That is, that basic physical fitness is uncommon, rather than assumed. Us fuckers are fat.

The best part is, it's entirely possible he did that - the SEALS have had so much media dicksucking in the last decade or two that a lot've them actually believe that their shit doesn't stink. I can just see a SEAL doing that.

Pretty good, from what I hear. Or at least not abnormally poor. The big thing with Vietnam (and also WW1!) was that it was a very experiencable war. That is, that it came at a time when the ability to transmit information was reaching all-new heights. World War 1 was the first war that the middle and upper classes really experienced, so they wrote about it. Vietnam was the first war of the Mass Media-era, so people watched it happen on Colour TV.
Neither Vietnam nor World War 1 were conspicuously terrible, they just had conspicuously widespread exposure.

What works for Arizona won't necessarily work for Kongo, they're two different people. Hell, I could see the quiet routine even putting Goto on edge due to how different it is.

SEALs are generally trained to handle any situation.

Depends on who you fucking ask. SEALs are really, really fucking good at their jobs. they are not fucking mythical awesome FPS characters that can go room to room with a fucking sniper system effectively.

>>43474758
>Do we have no solutions for it at all?
Lots. They're just not pretty. Remove the building with explosives, make the building uninhabitable with flammenwerfers or chemical weapons, avoid building-to-building entirely by starving them out...
>>
>>43474683
Room-clearing is a relatively simple activity where you move from room to room and hope whoever is in the next room is polite enough to shoot you in the armor instead of the face before you shoot him. Training to be better at it only takes you so far.

World War I was pretty fucking terrible, both in direct casualties and in the impersonal nature of their delivery. Also, in the seeming pointlessness of most of the fighting on the Western, Italian and Balkan Fronts for most of the war.

Vietnam, meanwhile, made America confront the fact that our claim to be morally better than the other side was, at best, only kinda-sorta true, and only when being a bastard wasn't quicker and easier. We spent the next forty years trying to forget that look into the depths of our national psyche.

Actually, World War 2 had a lot more casualties. World War 1 just sticks with people because a lot of it was slow trenchfighting; Back and forth, rather than strategic gains and losses.

Multiple solutions:

-- Carbine-length rifles, like the ones the Marines resisted adopting until just recently because they're Marines.
-- Pistols.
-- Removal of the problem entirely (also known as "Allah's Waiting Room.")

Conspicuously absent from this list: BOLT-ACTION SCOPED RIFLES.

So strike witches quest was a situation where the magical women in the military got a shitload of special treatment even though they weren't comeasuably more effective than conventional forces.

The professional soldiers did, but the professional soldiers have historically drawn lower-class, who are also usually illiterate. World War 1, when it got into the real swing of it, was recruiting from the literate, educated middle-class, who had never done (or wrote about) this whole 'war' thing before. The point I'm getting at is that WW1 was the first war that was really well-documented, as it happened, from the ground level. Before that, people sat in earthworks, died for stupid reasons, got fucked by their own guys and generally had a horrible time of war, but they couldn't write about it.
>>
>>43474968
If you look at the German body count, though, the Russkies have a point.

America provided the industrial backbone that supplied the Allied war effort, but in terms of who did the fighting and the dying it was mainly the Russians.

The results are probably kind of like when a cat thinks they're hidden in a box despite their tail sticking out.

Yes.

What about Iowa? How do you think she'll react to your friendship with Yamato?

Kongou turns to Settle for relationship advice much like Harder did.

Haruna is awkward.

Harder wants to wreck Kongou.

Willie is terrified.

Apparently Settle will give the WORST ADVICE LOL PLANEFAG TRAP CARD ACTIVE

It was so much fun to write.

>>43475365
I am not, but I hope you enjoy the writing anyway and I wish you and your family well.

>>43475385
Thought about it. Neither reallly made it in before the current WWII cutoff.

>Planefag claims we took the worst option.
To be fair, he's almost certainly fucking with us.

didn't they end up selling warrior to the fuckin argies because it was built without any cold climate protection and the mechanicals and crew spaces would freeze into uselessness every winter?
>>
>>43475470
At least Bonaventure served us well.

Hopefully by the time it comes up my hour will have come.

True, but assume the worst because it's almost certain to happen at some point or another.

Writer of >>43474377 here.

Kind of wishing I could write faster. Probably no way to write fast enough to beat the initial flood of votes, though.

They never really had more than one active and they were both technically escort carriers, not full sized.

You do realize you will not be allowed to die until you knock her up with a kid or ten.

Spoken like a man who knows he's gonna get spitroasted by two sets of massive naval artillery strapped onto a pair of ladies.

How is it that a threesome with the two best/hottest superdreads in history is a BAD thing?
>>
>>43475566
At this point both are looking at eachother as just another way to not act if you actually hope to get anywhere near your admiral.
>>
I don't know about anyone else, but when I voted I was thinking about Bonin, where Kongou was helpful but didn't distract or otherwise waylay Goto and everything was fine except for the hostile island and the experience of being bombed.

Are people really naive enough to think a choice automatically gives waifupoints if the waifu in question is mentioned by name?

Yeah, to the bottom.

Tell that to Hate's pelvis.

That’s how.

I'm sure Hate can take 18 inches like a boss. He's a marine after all.

So who would be in front and who in the back?
>>
You have the option to take 16 inches down your throat or up your ass, or 18 inches down your throat or up your ass.

Which one do you pick to go where.
>>
>>43475716
They'd take turns.
>>
Okay, caught up. Thanks for the update guys.

... Well, now I can't wait to see just what kind of trap card it was.

Especially when the Truth would have been interesting in terms of character development for Kongou.

>>43475621
I don't. But then again, I missed the vote.

Of course, it might backfire on that front and cause a massive misunderstanding/additional emotional damage with Arizona, thereby losing "waifupoints".

... Which seems plausible, considering PF called it a Trap Card and the previous disastrous interaction with Arizona.

Consequences of actions, etc.

>>43475712
So long as Hope Rides Alone becomes Settle's theme song, I'm down with it.
>>
>>43475504

... fucking, so what if it is?

>>43475581

Pretty sure Slepnir tops that though.
>>
>>43475716
yes
>>
>>43475721
[REDACTED] will use one of her spare cannons as a dildo, so 18 inches in both ways.
>>
>>43475721
both at the same time
>>
>>43475747
If she takes off her clothes she can make 35.5 knots.

and you KNOW she would do it as well
>>
>>43475747
Wrong. Iowa always tops.

>>43475747
Slepnir can't out run her bullets and shells Lt. Hate.

So you plan on knocking Odin out and stealing his horse and fleeing?

Man, you are the very picture of courage, valor, and sheer grit stubborn that spits death in the eye when it comes for you.

How the fuck do you plan on getting in when you'd flee from certain doom instead of ride it out?
>>
>>43475744
it dosent matter to planefag as long the salty tears of waifufags are harvested.
>>
>>43475747
I always wondered who'd win in such a fight. Modern(-ish) technology or old Norse magic.

... That said, you are aware that, according to the old legends, Ragnarok already happened and Valhalla is gone, right?

>>43475810
Well, Odin would thoroughly appreciate that mindset, considering he spent all of his time trying to advert Ragnarok.

>>43475819
True. Still, I can't help but wonder.
>>
>>43475810

You don't understand, the speed is so I've got freedom of maneuver on her. Once I've got that, it's fucking over.
>>
>>43475819
Just waifufags? Those are just the start of his quest for tears.
>>
>>43475836
But what happens if YAMATO INTERRUPT takes place at the same time? You'll be caught between the Big Stick and the Hotel.

True. But the interesting part is how we get to the tears.

There are old wizards, and there are bold wizards, but there aren't any old bold wizards?

>>43475870

You ever hear of the angry marines?

Look them up. They have a weapon I'm having Crab fucking fabricate. Power sack full of power doorknobs. We don't know what the fuck a power field is supposed to be so we're just going with a sack of doorknobs.

Best fucking Idea ever. Anyway, they've got the best fucking rule for magic bullshit. it's called GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HEAD. Fucking applies here too.
>>
>>43475809
This is some strange shit man

>>43475917
>They have a weapon I'm having Crab fucking fabricate. Power sack full of power doorknobs.
So Crab is a Tech Marine of the Angry Marines Chapter? This makes so much sense...
>>
>>43475917
>weapon I'm having Crab fucking fabricate
do tell me more LT
>>
>>43475917

Hate is a proto-angry marine.

It all makes sense now.
>>
>>43475909
How about Murakumo?
>>
>>43475917

How the hell did you enlist Crab into your fucking shenanigans? Did you give her some design points on her newest version of the Treefucker?
>>
>>43475917
Well, at least you finally know where you belong.

Right at the God-Emperor's side, waiting for the final battle with Chaos.
>>
>>43475945
no

>>43475917
You sure you don't want a Power Bat?
>>
>>43475917
>We don't know what the fuck a power field is supposed to be so we're just going with a sack of doorknobs.
How drunk were you when you asked someine to 'fabricate' a sack of doorknobs
>>
>>43475959
Dess?
>>
>>43475945
No, damn it, just no, and I'm saying this as someone who isn't Crix.
>>
>>43475953
the general fucking rule with Crab is he'll build it if it sounds interesting or fucking crazy enough to bother with. A sack full of doorknobs is just insane enough to fucking interest him for like, fifteen minutes.
>>
>>43475976
dess dess desssss deesss desu dess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>
>>43476001
Isn't that just about the time needed to order both the sack and the doorknobs?
