A strange sense of unreality slips over you as Arizona drags you into the room by your wrist, pinned in her viselike grip.
This is fine, you think.
This is fine.
You seem to drift over the polished floorboards as Arizona takes up position by Goto, bumping into him with her hip, sending him bumping into Kongou till they both have shifted to share center stage. She lifts her free hand up and gives the camera a little wave, then smiles that shy, sweet smile you've only seen once or twice.
You find yourself staring eye-to-glassy-eye with the webcam; the tiny little portal that's beaming your image to literal millions of people. You're halfway through a silent prayer for the server to crash from overload when Arizona raises your right hand for you and waves it.
“Hi,” you say intelligently. “I'm Rear Admiral Ryan Settle, United States Navy, and my career is over.” And then you laugh, freely and naturally, because it's so gravely true that it becomes funny again. Arizona flips your palm towards her. “And this is BB-39, Arizona.” Arizona waves and smiles again.
The steady torrent of chat queries has slowed to a trickle. The Internet itself seems to be drawing breath.
And then they unload.

I'd guess roughly quarter of them are apologizing for their country sinking her, another quarter are running away from perceived Yankee!Vengeance, the third quarter are asking/stating lewd things, and the final quarter are split between nationalists going crazy over an American BB and admiral interrupting Goto/Kongou, and people actually asking legit questions.

Nonsense.
Shipgirls aren't servants, and they are not bound by command seals.
I doubt they're even covered in prana circuits.
So Shiki can't kill them.

How well known is it, outside of yokosuka and USN scuttlebutt, that Ari is a mute?
>>46257257
It's that 'my career is over' bit that would catch my attention.
But now that you've brought it up:
>Hi, Arizona. What is it like, being human?
>Kongou sung for us, a trigger for a diplomatic shitstorm though it was... I'm sure you have a lovely singing voice as well, Arizona...
>I go to the memorial every day, and say a prayer for victory and peace. Stay strong, Arizona.
