“He didn't get it.”
Hate raises an eyebrow and slouches a little harder against the wall. “No shit, Sherlock. He wasn't even a fetus when it was filmed.”
“But it's a classic!” you protest.
“Classic piece of shit.”
“You fucking philistine. The camera work in that movie was fantastic. That was some goddamn *art,* you knuckle-dragging simian.”
“Skip, it was a *Marine.* Just because it says 'Navy' on our paychecks doesn't mean we're into the whole made-up sadomachoistic gay sex thing, okay?”
“Yeah, Marines always top in their gay sadomachoistic sex fantasies.”
“Ahem.”
You both turn to find Admiral Thomas's secretary glaring you down. “The admiral will see you, now.”
Hate raises his hand like a kid in class. “Oh, me, me!”
You give him a lidded-eyed Look by way of response.
“For Speaker For the Dead!”
The secretary tilts her head to study Hate from beneath her eyebrows. “BOTH of you.”
Hate lowers his hand, face blanking as he processes this. “It's YOUR fault!” he decides, stabbing an accusatory digit at you.
You try to slow your pace subtly, but Hate's onto you, easily concealing his wiry frame behind your bulk. With a sigh, you stride into Admiral Thomas's office standing as tall as you can - you can't see this ending without a good ass-chewing. Even in the most favorable light, you deserve several.
Admiral Thomas and Goto are both sitting behind his desk, peering at his computer screen in wonder. They both flick an intense, scrutinizing look at you, then back to the monitor.
You and Hate both salute crisply. “Reporting as ordered, sir.”
“Sit your asses down,” Thomas instructs, eyes still riveted on his computer.
You and Hate share an uncertain glance, and sit.
Admiral Thomas pins you to your chair with a keen look, then begins reading aloud from his monitor. “Presuming him unfamiliar with Western martial arts, I executed a false lunge. Thinking me fully committed to the attack he sidestepped the line of attack, captured my weapon with the off-hand and countered. Blocked this with off-hand to his wrist, headbutted him to gain time and dropped my sword. Took control of his knife arm with the default krav maga counter and used his blade against him, pushing back till we went to ground. At this point he ceased to offer resistance. After checking the immediate area for further threats, I contacted base security and reported the incident.”
He falls silent, turning that penetrating look onto you again. You shift eyes to Goto, but he's wearing the same expression. In desperation, you glance sidelong at -
- for fucks sake he's the LAST one to be giving you that shit!
“... sir?”
“I know I asked for an After Action Report,” Thomas says slowly, “but this...”
“......... sir?” you repeat at half the volume.
“Rear Admiral Settle, last night you *butchered* two experienced killers - with a *sword*,” - he shoots a look at Hate - “and you wrote it up attack for attack like you were describing weapon releases after a surface action.” He leans back in his chair, still studying you. “Doesn't that seem odd to you?”

>Technically, this was a surface action.
"Somewhere off Christmas Island—an anomalous little fillet of land, with a steep crown and a narrow fringe of reefs, rising up through the blue-black swells of the Indian Ocean some two hundred miles south of Java—the seabed abruptly drops to unimaginable depths: twenty, twenty-two, twenty-four thousand feet. The ocean’s very surface sags by several meters along the great Java Trench. And within another two hundred miles or so south of Christmas Island, lost amid submarine canyons, contorted basins, and imbricated sediment, wedged in a deep shelf, or perhaps lying on a frigid abyssal plain, is a slowly disintegrating hulk of blasted metal.
It is not likely that Dr. Robert Ballard, or, for that matter, any other specialized, well-funded oceanographer, will ever probe those waters in search of this crumpled wreck. The seas are too dangerous, and the Malay Barrier (as it was once known) to the north is ringed by volcanic islands with a history of geologic violence."

"It is easy to imagine the crumpled wreckage, covered with rusticles and wrapped in cerements of silt, thousands of feet beneath the slate-gray Indian Ocean four hundred miles off the green Javanese shores, far from those spring flowers. She was, is, a half-forgotten American warship, already elderly in World War II, a veteran of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans and the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Black seas, and finally a member of the U.S. Asiatic Fleet’s Destroyer Squadron 29: USS Edsall (DD-219). Her remains reposed in utter darkness for more than sixty-five years."

This quote is instructive:
>In fact, military experts say, submarines dare attack battle ships only when the crews of the latter are unwary or their gunners are bad marksmen.
In WWI torpedoes were still extremely short-ranged and unreliable, which is why the leading U-boat ace of the war scored most of his kills by stopping ships on the surface, letting the crew depart in lifeboats (per old-fashioned Prize Rules dating back to the age of sail) and scuttling the ship with a boarding crew and/or his deck gun. Someone cheeky enough to attempt a submerged torpedo attack on a battleship would almost certainly be obliged to close in on the surface at night unless they found themselves SMACK dab in the enemy's line of travel, since those old boats were pathetically slow underwater and had limited duration even by WWII standards. Worse, their depth control could be a damn iffy thing (that was still a problem that came up in WWII at times, esp. because of battle damage,) and the big CG changes of firing torpedoes from those smaller WWI boats could often threaten to make your boat porpoise - or worse, force you to blow ballast and surface because she decides she's going down now, thank you very much. So needing to motor the fuck away on the surface till you could get lost in the dark and fog was a thing.
>>43597458
Have you ever played Austria-Hungary? You kind of have to rely on torps to survive. It sucks so much early game, but come late game it is pretty scary how good they get. Just build massive dd swarms backed by kitikami knockoffs and wait till night.

Something our Armed Forces have been trying to uphold ever since.
Sure, we've let down our guard and gotten subs every so often. And there was someone's attempt to bring them into the fold via Edmonton, but what can you do?
You flick your eyes between Goto and Thomas uncertainly.
“Uh... why would it? It's not the first time I've been in combat. Not the first time since I got to Japan, even.”
Thomas pans his gaze to Goto. They trade expressions before Thomas hands him a a couple 1000 yen notes. Then Thomas turns his monitor around so you can see it. “Settle - watch this.”
He clicks a button, and the paused video onscreen begins playing. For differing dark Yokosuka sidewalks snap into view with some esoteric camera/date information superimposed on one corner. Through one you see two men striding down the sidewalk with steady purpose. In another you see yourself, dress whites looking yellowed in the sickly light of the sodium security lamps as you lurch along, swaying and quite clearly drunk. You and your soon-to-be assailants leave frame and meet in the bottom-right corner, the two lazily unlimbering their weapons as you sway gently towards them.
You hear Hate twitch when your cane connects with the first one's solar plexus, your inebriated sway vanishing in a heartbeat as you spring into them. His chair's arms squeak under his hands when he watches you block the second attack, and from the corner of your eye you see his eyes light up when the sword gleams in the sullen light.

She is probably getting enough rope and chain together to strap Settle's gimppy ass to her, permanently.
The fight is much, much faster than you remember; and much shorter. The security camera doesn't include sound, but you twitch involuntarily when you watch yourself bring the sword's hilt down on the first man's face - the solid, grisly *feel* of cartilage crunching beneath your blow is still with you.
Then the rush, the flip, and for a few long heartbeats - the face-off as you and the remaining man size each other up. The camera angle gives you a good look at your own face, half-lit by the street lamp. You remember the calculation, the summation, the decision, the attack - but not the lean, savage set of your mouth.
“Scary,” Willie had said.
No shit.
“The first responding officers, the hospital ER doctor, everyone concurred that you were quite obviously inebriated that night, Admiral,” Thomas says quietly. “Did that have anything to do with your... demeanor?”

>[x] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
What I don't get, is why Arizona slapped settle after the yakuza slaughter. Can someone.....please explain?
>>43597809
[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597865
Because all she wanted to do was to get married.
>>43597809
>[ ] It's all Yakuzas under the landfill at this point, sir, so what is this really about?
We weren't even being particularly bloodlusting or anything, we just defended ourselves.
[X] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597809
>[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>[X] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597841
And she didn't need to say a single word.
>>43597877
Really?
She was pissed that he was so reckless to take a walk while drunk like that instead of calling a driver like he told her she would. She was worried about him.
>>43597877
Settle had promised he that he would call for a ride back to his apartment
>>43597877
Because after having her serve as our bodyguard all day, after repeatedly putting ourself in harms way in her presence, and then telling her we would be fine if she went to bed...
We proceeded to get drunk and wander off into some assassins. Naka shares the blame, but still.
>>43597877
because we didn't call to get her to escort Settle even though she's his bodyguard.
>>43597841
A girl? Being reasonable?
Naw.
>>43597881
>>43597877
We went on a walk without her permission
>>43597809
[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597877
Battleships dude. They want to protect that admiral booty.
>>43597910
How do we get her back?
And how do we give her enough authority to whoop our ass if we endanger ourselves needlessly again?
>>43597809
>[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597902
Oh Ok thanks! I've never been drunk enough to have a big effect, so I don't fully know every little detail about the aftermath.
>>43597809
>Settle gains the nickname Highlander
>THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE
>>43597915
And she was going to do so after she got better.
>>43597809
>[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597906
*snaps fingers in remembrance* OHHHH now I remember! Thanks!
>>43597809
>[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597809
>Other?
If anything, Sir, being a bit drunk likely saved my life. Had I been completely sober, I might very well have overthought the situation and gotten myself killed.
In other words admirals - there is no way I could have reacted to the situation with sufficient alacrity to defeat two professional opponents who had the advantage of surprise while sober.
>>43597928
>How do we get her back?
This isn't a fucking VN, we didn't 'lose' anybody. She was upset, we were drunk, we'll both be adults about it and move forward.
>And how do we give her enough authority to whoop our ass if we endanger ourselves needlessly again?
She's basically got that already, she just doesn't use it
>>43597934
Oh, yeah, planefag is pretty damn good at depicting inebriation sometimes. Impulse control is looking back and thinking "I could have told myself not to say that, but, well, I didn't"
>>43597809
>[x] It's all Yakuzas under the landfill at this point, sir, so what is this really about?
somebody gave base passes to fuckin terrorists and you're here bitching a sailor out because he got drunk?
And somewhere in Russia, Ivan is screaming at me saying: HALF DRUNK?!?!? WHY NO FULL DRUNK??!?!!!!??!! IVAN IS DISSAPOINTED
>>43597997
Russian-Japanese Dad
>>43597997
Hush Ivan, naval superpowers are talking
>[X] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597993
I.
What.
Wait this is for chewing us out right? Why is Hate here?
>>43597877
>>43597980
But I'm pretty sure we were too drunk to have a tiny little non-drunk angelic Higgins shipgirl telling us the right thing when in reality the tiny-little-drunk-volatile-Higgins shipgirl had Budlight in each hand and was screaming and rooting for us.
>>43598056
He gave an office a weapon and expected it to end well?
>>43597553
He didn't serve in the military, is what I'm saying.
>>43597809
>[X] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43597860
>kebab
Shouldn't that be yakitori?
>>43598071
>the tiny-little-drunk-volatile-Higgins shipgirl had Budlight in each hand and was screaming and rooting for us.
Best girl.
>>43598087
*officer
>>43598056
Hate's the FORCEPRO officer
>>43598087
Hate gave us the weapon. Not the admiral.
>>43598097
There is little difference between Kebab and Yakitori. Both are scum that must be removed.
>>43598105
>Higgins comes back
>When she gets frustrated, instead of counting to ten she just quietly recites https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZe5J8SVCYQ to herself
>>43597809
>[ ] My demeanor had everything to do with my drunkenness, not the other way around, sir.
>>43598129
>Hate gave us the weapon. Not the admiral.
Reading comprehension. Nobody's implying that the admiral gave Settle the sword.
>>43598129
Yes. That was what was meant to be read from it. He asked why is Hate here. Because he gave an officer a deadly weapon and expected it to end well.
>>43598151
My mind is full of fuck.
How do naval engineers do this?
Oh you anons know what would be great.
The Yaks try this again, but hurt Goto instead somehow or maybe because he hasn't remove Gajin. The Japanese Shipgirls reaction.
[X] It's all Yakuzas under the landfill at this point, sir, so what is this really about?
really sad we didn't use the technically it was a surface action line
>>43597773
Arizona moved on dess!
She decided that a two-timing admiral wasn't worth it dess!
>>43598125
Which means that he's got no room to be smug. Much as those Yaks should never have got inside the base in the first place, the fact that they actually got within murdering distance of Settle means that, to the brass, HATE FUCKED UP BIG TIME.
>>43598208
kek
>>43598208
Good for these girls.
But Arizona will never abandon uncle Sam.
>>43597847
technically the first turkeyhandle didn't have a hisui voice
also why do you have to bring that up man

An LP of RtW I'm currently following on SA (run and played by Grey Hunter, SA's most prominent grog game player, known for playing both War in the Pacific and War in the East in real time one day at a time and never missing an update, even making a special one for his wedding in the vein of his other updates during WitE, as well as countless other grog games, plus his atrocious spelling mistakes, as well as inadvertently sinking the Royal Navy in any historical game he plays, to the point where he sank most of it in Steam and Iron playing as the Kaiserliche Marine, but couldn't win the game because the developers set the German victory conditions to be so impossible to achieve since they figured that no one would be able to beat the RN).
Give me a good naval game that allows me to pilot a capital ship. I am less inclined to command a fleet.
>>43597847

>>43598208
Nonsense.

His France is currently getting overwhelmed by AH in the mid 20's because he doesn't have the tonnage to break their blockade in the Med, because he recently lost a war to GB and they placed a naval restriction on him, as well as sinking or seizing most of his BBs to the point where he has the smallest fleet of them in the world, and the ones he does have left aren't all that modern.
Also, both goons (who are giving input) and Grey are terrible at designing raiders and Battlecruisers (his most modern BCs died to turret explosions when GB's better designed and more modern BBs and BCs opened up during a fleet, convoy harassment/protection, or raid battle of some sort and punched through their weak turret top armor. That class of BCs were even named the So Suez Me class, to celebrate France taking Egypt and Gibraltar from GB in a previous war that they fought, in which he was able to starve out GB to the point of revolution toppling their government.
He couldn't break GB's blockade of him in Northern Europe in that previous war starving him out, and a revolution toppled his government as he couldn't sink GB's merchant shipping fast enough to force a surrender with his dwindling number of submarines and raiders that kept getting intercepted. But he still was able to keep three possessions that the army seized on its own during that war: Hong Kong, Malta, and Cyprus.
>>43597993
They're bitching him out because he was fucking crazy
also yaks ain't terrorists, they're just filthy crims
>>43598208
Good. Without shipgirls trying to get Settle's torpedo we can prioritise more important things. Such as slaying abyssals and blowing shit up.
votes called woot

Well, I best take a break and eat dinner. Also question, is it more fun to be drunk during a quest like this?
>>43598293
This isn't much of a bitching out, not yet at least
>>43598310
>Well, I best take a break and eat dinner. Also question, is it more fun to be drunk during a quest like this?
If you're reading? Yes.
If you're writing? VERY YES.
>>43598208
>Shoo off Shoukaku and Arizona
>Murk some yaks like we're a terminator and it gets recorded
>Next time we bump into Tenryuu she's ram rod straight and respectful
>It can't be resisted. "Fu. Fu. You sacred?"
>Que red-faced sputtering
>We are catapulted onto the secret best route
Everything is falling into place.
>>43598296
Also, how do you like my version of Settle's conscience?
>>43598310
Well, drinking does destroy brain cells.
So yes, I'd call drinking essential for proper enjoyment of this quest.

Okie! WHERE MAH OKTOBERFEST BEER

Is there a link for this somewhere? Sounds fkin hilarious.

Anon, it's like you don't want to reset this twisted game.
>>43598323
>>We are catapulted onto the secret best route
But Crix hasn't written the Momboat/Settle date omake yet!
Shoukaku and Arizona claiming Settle as their Admiral when?
