You suppose you can't complain too much- the rest of the squadron has been taking almost constant combat missions, with Ice adding another three kills to her records, leading the group. Slider's got the next most with one- and even with zero, you're hardly unusual. The once mighty soviet air force has taken a real beating in the region, it's numbers badly depleted. These night raiders are almost the last of their real effective forces, and represent what they're mostly limited to- fast, small raids on a few important targets.

The problem that has the guys on the ground howling is the target choices the Soviets are making. Fuel depots. Even the night CAP has been useless, with AWACS getting, at best, intermittent contact as the soviets come in right on the deck. Even witches haven't been able to do anything- night witches tend to lose them in the weeds, and witches with talent for speed can't operate at night, especially not right down in the mud like that.

Without spreading out their limited air offensive, they've managed to slow the advance to a crawl- there's just not enough fuel at the front for the allied army, and these night bombers are damn good. Good enough the scuttlebutt says they're a group of specially selected and trained night witches flying modified Su-34s. They come in fast, on the deck, and they're in and out before anyone knows they're there, practically. So far, nobody's managed a successful intercept.

Then again, you haven't gotten a crack at them yet either.

“Sir Bishop, can I ask you something?” Wendy asks, her voice carrying across the short distance from her rack through to your open cockpit.

You look over at her- she doesn't look worried about anything, which is a relief, just kind of concerned- which you figured from the tone in her voice.

[x] Sure, shoot.

You settle your head back against the under padded ejection seat and nod. “Sure, shoot.”

“Well-” She pauses. “I've two questions, if that's ok.”

“It's fine, we've got nothing but time right now.” You respond, trying to get comfortable. With your helmet off, that's really not going to be possible- the ejection seat isn't exactly the most ergonomic thing ever, the canvas and thin padding not exactly designed with pilot comfort in mind. You make a note to talk to someone about that.

“I'm sorry if you're not the right person, but it seems as if everyone else does this sort of thing with you, so-”

“Wendy, it's alright!” You exclaim, chuckling. “What's bothering you?”

“Oh- well, I wasn't sure if I really belonged here.” She says, sounding kind of downcast. “You've all been wonderful, certainly more than I've ever had before, and more than I deserve, but you're all expected to be the best, and I've not even any flight time I didn't have to sneak. The last time I was able to fire Tessa- I mean, before the matron London assigned me to miss Kazanski was last year. I'm not carrier qualified and these-” She indicates her tornados, their rebuild completed almost the day you left Barin- “Aren't the same quality as anyone else's. If I'm being honest, I should accept the offer to use new strikers, but...” You look over in time to see her shrug, helplessly.

“So you're worried you're not good enough?” You ask, trying to be gentle.

She nods. “I- yes. I'm aware you've a reputation for helping people, and I'm sure my situation looked bad enough you'd help me, even if it would have hurt the squadron overall.” She looks over. “No one has complained, and everyone has been nothing but friendly and nice, but-”

Drop a hint? A hint? It was far from a fucking hint.

Something like that, yeah.

But it does work in calming down an emotional and/or PTSD witch.

Or a helpful Youngspawn could relay it

>>35372662
But doing it right before a mission while on alert is hardly a good time for it though. That is, if you're implying we do headpats for Wendy.

>>35372625
The down side I can think of. It might not work on Slider. Snake familiar and all.

>>35372553
When have we ever given Katya or Ice headpats in this quest. One of them is our CO for crying out loud.

>>35372699
I was thinking post mission, or if they have a break down mid-mission. Not sure if Wendy is ready for the head pats. Many head pats are reserved for Merlin

[x] Maybe that's why I wanted to get you with us initially, sure, but I'm not the only one you've impressed.

You nod. “Maybe that's why I wanted to get you transferred initially, but I'm not the only one you've impressed.” You say.

“You're not?” Wendy asks, sounding slightly better.

“Not at all. You shoot as good as the best of the rest of them, your skill as a flier, the basic stuff you need to know, is better than perfect, or nearly that, and you've kept training most of them have forgotten. Like now, for example.” You supply, pointing at the NODs attached to her HUD piece. “Most of them can't fly like that, and leave nights to us pilots and the night witches. But here you are, right? Just by you being here, it means that Katya and the twins don't have to be up overnight with Merlin and me every other night, and that counts for a lot.”

“Plus,” Merlin adds from the back, “You don't have to unlearn any bad habits in order to learn ours.”

You grin. “Yeah, what Merlin said. You don't have to learn anything differently than how your old unit did things, because your old unit never taught you. Stupid of them, really.”

You see her nodding, agreeing with what you've said- maybe because she believes it, maybe because she wants it to be true and isn't going to question it. Either way works for you for now.

Until Ghostdivision gives us a choice where the only way to save more than one of our love interests is to do something that kills us.

“So what was your second question?” You ask.

She hesitates. “Well, I-” she pauses again, then nods to herself. “I've never been in combat, not really, anyway. Training when I was in the academy, but nothing since then, and even that was routine, by the book. I- I was wondering what it's like?”

“What a dogfight's like?” You ask.

“Dogfights, ground attacks, all of it. Combat.” She says. “I've no idea, and I’m kind of scared, really.”

You're about to answer when Merlin speaks over you. “Frank, ops is on one. Looks like someone has something.”

You put your helmet on, connecting the umbilical while Merlin runs through the restart checklists- truncated ones, you've already done a lot of the steps, all there really is to do is fire up the turbines and detach from the APU.

“ops, tiger.” You say over the tower frequency, using your flight's briefed callsign.

“Tiger flight, we've got a group of bogies to the north being painted by AWACS, a witch, and ground radar. We need you to go check it out. They're low and fast, pushing south, towards the outskirts of Warsaw. AWACS will take over once you're airborne.”

“Tiger flight copies, rolling.” You announce, letting Merlin light the fires while Wendy drops into her strikers, her L85 strapped across her chest. She looks over at you, maybe still after an answer.

[x] It's the easiest thing in the world, my friend. Follow my lead and keep 'em off my back, ok?

You tap the side of your helmet, signaling that she needs to be on the flight radio- she nods and shoots you a thumbs up, clicking her mic at the same time.

“It's the easiest thing in the world, my friend. Follow my lead and keep 'em off my back, ok?”

She nods, clicking her mic again- a good wingmate speaks as little as possible, and that's been drilled into her.

She still lines up on the runway first- jetwash is a concern more for her than for you, your big turbofans more than able to deal with ingesting the relatively tiny amount of jetwash a striker puts out without the slightest hiccup. You begin your takeoff roll as she lifts off the runway, the roar of your jets drowning out everything else for a second.

Wendy slides into place off to the right of your fighter- Witches typically stick closer to their fighters in formation, needing less time and distance to react and maneuver. You spare one brief glance out the canopy at her- she looks determined.

Merlin gets the vector, putting you on a more or less northeastern heading for Olsztyn- just recently taken by joint force north, made up mostly of Brits and Germans. With any luck, their mobile AA assets will be able to help, but you kind of doubt it- maybe ground radar, but no missiles.

“Tiger, we're losing the contacts.” the AWACS warns. “Last known vector is one seven five, airspeed one thousand knots. Cherubs eight, maybe.”

“Maybe.” Merlin mocks privately to you. “Frank, want me to find them? They'd be in range with last known heading and position thunderhead gave us. I can data link with every radar site in theater too, there's no way they can hide from us.”

Oh, BTW fapfic anon, I have another writing tip I found that will be helpful. Complete your work, Then copy paste it into another writing program, like wordpad. Save it and then keep that open and open a clean page in your original writing program. That or print out a physical copy. Then rewrite it from the copy. You will see problems and be able to fix them

>>35374326
I can't set up a fic for shit. This gives me a nice starting point.

>>35374380
Or you can take a 10 minute break and get your mind off it by doing something else and come back to it with a fresh set of eyes like normal people instead of some retarded convoluted process...

>>35374349
Wait so what about your other stuff? Because your stories have turned some of the most unlikable characters in the plot into believable personalities that one can really relate to. Whether or not your stories are canon makes a big impact on my view of them.

>>35374429
Different writer here, that process is actually very important in order to remove bias and look at it in a fresh perspective.

>>35373576
I've never even looked at this quest before, but I just noticed that this character apparently serves on the CV-60 Saratoga. My dad operated the steam catapults on that carrier in the late 80's.

Not really relevant, I guess but whatever.

Storiessss

Any ol' sailor has stories enough to sink a ship.

>>35374444
Rollercoaster and the lewds for it
The current Ogawa story I'm working on

These are, afaik, canon.

The other assorted one shots I'm not so sure about. A lot of 'em were done in a hurry, spur of the moment kinds of things.

The 'Needs' stories are non-canon across the board, but I did write them with their personalities in mind.

[x] Do it. I want to find these guys before they do anymore damage.

“Do it.” You order. “I want these guys before they do any more damage.”

Merlin doesn't respond, instead busying herself building a massive composite radar image of the region from every available radar source, and one AWACS witch up on night patrol.

Even with the sudden, massive flow of data, the contacts are spotty- until Merlin adds your own set. Keeping it in scan, and without locking them up to give you away, she's able to get all four- and transients on several more.

She's quiet in the back as you close the distance, though, as the range counts down, she does speak up once. “Frank? Don't try to use the AMRAAMS. They're too low and I'm having to work to keep them on the radar. It's like it wants to forget they're there. I don't think AMRAAMS could track that low, and if I tried to guide them, I'd lose the radar picture.”

You're getting close enough now to engage with AMRAAMs though- and the alternative is your massive stock of Agile IIIs. While you're not at all worried about the shot- even if you miss, it'll force them off their heading and hopefully delay them some, giving you more time to work- IR seeking missiles, like the Agiles, would give no warning, and you don't think they know you're here yet. The surprise could mean getting enough of them to shut the attacks down for good.

[] We'll use the AMRAAMs, I'd rather slow them down and force them to go defensive.
[] We've got plenty of Agiles for this, let's not give them a chance to defend themselves right away.

Anon, the result of getting out of one mindset and perspective and into another is very simple, its a matter of knowing your own mind and tricking it, and there are very easy ways of achieving that, when I write up design docs for work I can put on one or two pieces of music and relax for 2 minutes with my eyes closed and thats it, but I've trained myself to do that, all about mind over matter

Let's go with the reliable attack. My read on this situation is that they have some form of IR stealth going on here, so the AMRAAMs aren't likely to get a lock this far out.

One that comes to mind was the time they were ashore somewhere - Greece I think - and they were drinking as sailors tend to do. Anyway, one of his friends was like "I'm gonna go hit on that girl over there." and my dad was like "I dunno, man. I think that's a dude."

The abridged version is his friend punched a transvestite in the throat and they had to drunkenly run back to the ship as they were being chased by a dozen angry trannies.

>>35374528
>[X] We've got plenty of Agiles for this, let's not give them a chance to defend themselves right away.

Merlin said no AMRAAMS, so no AMRAAMS.

>>35374556
It's not a problem of writers block or anything, but coming at it looking for all the flaws. If you do it too soon, you still see it as you had intended, and thus correct. You have to get out of that in order to fix it. In my experience, the best way to completely eradicate it is looking at it on a different medium. After a short break, of course.

>>35374528

What is with servicemen and transvestites.

Used to be a desk pilot, scheduling training for reservist soldiers coming in for retraining.

I had to handle the paperwork to charge a bunch of idiots propositioning transvestites a bit of a way from the base and then beating them up when said trannies refused. In full uniform. And name tags and shit.

>>35374744
Your average E-3 will go for ANYTHING.

>>35374684

[] We've got plenty of Agiles for this, let's not give them a chance to defend themselves right away.

You elect against using the AMRAAMS, instead closing in on the bogies from above and behind- hopefully undetected so far.

“Frank, we've got a problem.” Merlin warns, frowning. “Those contacts aren't single aircraft, it looks like groups of three. So there's not four bogies-”

“There's twelve. We've still go this.” You say, trying to acquire them visually.

Wendy spots them first- twelve aircraft, sure as shit, flying impossibly close, airshow formation style, low and fast. At least mach 1.5, probably a hair faster, their afterburners glowing in the night.

“There. Tally ho, twelve bandits. One o clock low, heading one seven five. Tiger flight is engaging.” you call, diving into them, Agiles selected.

The twelve fighters- Fullbacks, again, Su-34s, so the rumors were right about that, don't react until you're almost slotted in for your first missile shot- and they break, pouring on the coals and splitting into three groups. Merlin is broadcasting a general air defense warning- with their location pegged like that, there's almost no way they'll pull this off.

Still, each group breaks onto a southerly heading- but other than speeding up and dipping even lower, they don't make any defensive moves.

[] Order Wendy to engage them, they're trying to set us up. We'll pull overwatch.

[x] We'll continue to engage, order Wendy to give us over watch.

“Wendy, they're trying to bait us. Keep a watch out for bandits, ok?”

Wendy clicks her mic in response, separating about a hundred feet laterally and up, almost textbook spread to cover you.

The four fullbacks of this group are really pouring it on- enough that Wendy is struggling to keep up. Still you're able to close when you get the warning from her. “Tiger one there's a bandit on your left! He's firing!”

The vampire blasts through the space just vacated by you, snapping around in a hard turn. It's fuselage is a midnight black with deep crimson trim- and one, baleful red star on the vertical stabilizer.

And it's got three friends.

You watch as a gaggle of witches separate from the fighters, dropping away with violet plumes dancing from the exhausts of their strikers.- parasitic witches aren't unheard of, but that ride can't have been fun.

You're actually glad it's you- you're pretty sure that'd have killed any other pilot.

“Tally ho! Four steelwings, eight sparkles! Get some fighters up here!” You bellow over the GUARD net, slamming the wyvern into the merge with the four soviet jets.

“Sir Bishop?” Wendy sounds- well, scared. You're outnumbered, and even with a general air defense alert up, those bombers might still get through- and there's no way you're going to ignore four vampires and eight witches to go after them- you can't.
