Kitakami reclines in the back seat, elbow atop the door and chin propped in her hand. Her dark eyes regard you unfavorably in the rearview mirror. “You're an idiot.”

You sigh, resisting the urge to glance askance at Arizona - even she's not taking your part this time, you know damn well. “You have a better idea?”

“I was handling it. Like you *asked* me to. And then-”

“Yeah, Kitakami, god's chosen destroyer diplomat,” you return, slamming the stick into first gear and popping the clutch, sending the jeep back into base traffic with a squeal and a lurch. “Because that was working so well. She was about to blow your head off.”

“You'd rather she blow YOURS off?” Kitakami returns, looking away dismissively. “If she can't handle some bullying then she's no good in a real fight. She's useless, period.” She shrugs. “Why sacrifice yourself for that?”

So.

Eisenhower was fond of dividing tasks up based on if they were urgent and important, important but not urgent, urgent and unimportant, or not urgent and unimportant. For each group he would then do, decide when to do, delegate to someone else, and delete, respectively. We should do the same thing.

Urgent and important tasks now are corralling the corgis. Important but not (too) urgent is getting some psychological help, both for the girls and for ourselves and Hate.

Amen to that. FIRST! We round those corgis up and... Whatever is closest to court-marshaling them. I vote stripping them of their 'ship' bits, donating those to the egg-heads at the labs and sending the de-militarised corgis to the pound.

Next step will be making nice with Hate. He's the key to all this and we either need him on our side, brought into line (as if THAT'LL ever happen short of the infinite power of Christ and the Joint Chiefs...) or back stateside.

[X] I'm an idiot.

>>42743330
The catch with Hate, I suspect, is that he won't be mollified with words. Dealing with him will require us to have a definite plan. Something for him to actually do and feel like he's not just sitting on his ass and dicking around with the dogs. The easiest being of course, letting him go to Iwo, if the JSDF haven't left already. Or letting him show off his project, giving it complicit and unspoken approval. Additionally, we've seen the corgies require constant supervision. So maybe someone to split the load with him. That requires A) finding someone else who can find the dogs and B) knowing that Hate will have more free time to do....iunno but he's a resourceful sumbitch.

Consider the following:
>Hate
>Saw plenty of shit in the sand- the kind of fighting where everything's fucked, your enemy is everywhere and nowhere and impossible to pin down, etc etc.
>And then, at LA, he got pulled- literally- into probably the most clear cut fight of his life. Something straight out of the history books where his enemy was there, he was on his gun, and he could have and almost did die happy from that honest exchange of murder.
Since then he basically hasn't had ANY fights, honest or otherwise. He's Bored, not in the funny marine way but in the "still reeling from the high of having purpose he felt on Iowa's deck" sense. The happiest he's been is when he's been working to unfuck Willie and beating up fat japs, and that still doesn't compare to an actual fucking fight.

Is that our fault and/or problem? Not necessarily. We really do need him not-dead-on-a-beach, though we also need him sane of course. Here's hoping his bullshit from Yamato works out because that's basically his best bet at a ticket to avoid going stir crazier.

Well, he's a lieutenant now, right?

Which means he's in a command position.

And the corgis require constant supervision, right?

So how about we make Hate the head of a team of corgi handlers? Create a way where we can control the corgis reliably, so we have small corgi packs working together as an even larger pack?

We also turn a blind eye to the Marines' inevitable attempts to use the corgis like the shipgirl's water shoes so they could go board abyssal boats

>>42743562
Extreme, yes, but they attacked an allied ship, while they're PERFECTLY capable of knowing better. They risked critical allied assets and could have destabilised the entire Pacific alliance! They are to be subject to the uniform code of military justice; that's what the -uniform- part means! No-one, no matter how critical, is above the law and by laying it down on them, we secure the peace of mind of our other assets and let rowdy elements know they will not escape punishment in the future.

Hate is an officer of the USMC, and if he released the Corgis he is guilty of dereliction of duty. Settle has also fucked up a lot lately, though putting himself in danger to save Shigure is arguably what his duty was. In any case I think recent events justify a "come to Jesus" moment with Hate and Settle where they can unfuck themselves and start acting like professionals.

>>42743660
Did you also forget the fact that Settle gave them a direct order to stop and they ignored it?

>>42743766
10/10 keep it up buddy

>>42743759
What do we do if it was Sammy?
Unfortunately, I think >>42743665 is right; though they look like people and dogs, these are actually ships and they get treated as such.
So we don't have the authority to decommission them, and I'm not sure if we even have the authority to do any real punishment except to punt it up to Admiral Thomas.
As the person in charge of the 7th Fleet, he might have enough authority to mete out punishment.

But anyway, since they're ships, not people or dogs according to how the USN is treating them, I'm not confident that they could be court-martialed.

>Saw a bit of shit, not nearly as much as Hate but not green
>And then, at LA, literally everybody on his bridge except for him died. He gave orders, he lead, but apart from the pain in his leg it's men and women who fought and died all around him to make it actually work.
>And then he got paraded around as a goddamn hero for surviving when his decisions got his people killed. Even when they were the right decisions. Even when they were the best he or they could have done, they died and he didn't.
So now he's got a complex as big as Yamato about people dying for the sake of his orders. Even if they're the right decisions, even if they're perfectly willing to go into harms way and are capable of it, he still wishes that he would have been the one who died on that bridge, not everybody else.
Hence why he has trouble helping it when the opportunity to shield a battleship with his broken human body. Fuck, he even did it with Kaga and Akagi.

Hate interprets that behavior as basically waifu white-knight faggotry, as opposed to survivor's guilt. Settle interprets Hate's exasperation with the situation as petulant jarheadery, as opposed to wanting the chance to make a fucking difference like he did as LA and lacking any way to do that

>>42743822
>Did you also forget the fact that Settle gave them a direct order to stop and they ignored it?

If the Corgis can't be trusted to follow orders and not attack Allied personnel, then they really need to be somewhere else. Yokosuka is one of the most heavily defended naval ports on earth so their presence is not strictly required. Getting them transferred out to Puget Sound or somewhere they won't go after allied ships/personnel would be quite justified if we can't bring them to heel.

That said Settle is a Rear Admiral. Surely he can get more personnel assigned to his command to help Hate deal with the Corgis?

>>42743845

This is a pretty good analysis, all things considered.


It doesn't help things that Settle's been mostly around ships, though.

Of course he doesn't. If it gets him a clean fight between himself and obviously uniformed enemies, what does he care if he's leading platoons of men to die, right?
Or that we don't have any facilities to keep an Abyssal contained, let alone any of our own shipgirls/PT's.
Or that bringing a captured Abyssal back to base before we try to understand how they capture land facilities could end up with all of Yokosuka turning into an Abyssal base.

He's made it clear on numerous occasions that while he's a LT, he'd rather just be a shooter. Kinda like how Settle is a Rear Admiral and yet keeps acting like a Captain and going on (internally at least) about the weight of responsibility. Also, the only options I can see to handle the corgis and keep them under control, are either Willie or Sammy and either of those raise interesting questions for what happens down the road.

Going from this, Hate is still absolutely correct that Settle's getting too worked up and personal with his command decisions- I'm not saying we should aspire to being a watch-wearing dildo or anything, but laughing maniacally and throwing your headset across the CIC because you're upset are not good behaviors for a commander to have.
Getting SO FUCKING MAD that you summon a heavy cruiser also isn't healthy, but the results can let that one slide

And Settle is still totally right that Hate slinking around like a bitchy cat because he has to do things he doesn't want to do isn't helping ANYBODY when we're stretched past the breaking point on manpower as it is.

In conclusion, thank fucking god for Wainwright and Wo-ass

>>42744178
Canon has its place, but when the derivative work's primary THING is that it changes many elements of that canon you can't rely on it so heavily

>>42744178
When the canon is as nebulous as Kancolle, it doesn't.

Kancolle canon also has it as a rule that only Axis ships come back as shipgirls and that Allied ones come back as Abyssals.

>>42744220
>Thank fucking God for Wainwright
Now I'm starting to think Wainwright is Doctor House without a limp and with twice the snark.

I think we should just ship all the corgis somewhere else.
PT boats are good raiding craft, but not significant in fleet engagements. And keeping them around to basically do nothing when they've shown the willingness to not only attack allied personnel but also disobey a direct order from a rear admiral, combined with the fact that you can't really discipline them means that they're going to wind up causing trouble.

At the very least, we need to get someone other than Hate who's not a shipslut to babysit them.

>>42743853
You know, speaking of survivor's guilt, that may potentially give us an in with Shigure in case we end up pursuing that plot thread further personally. I'd wager most of Shigure's issues (below the obvious shunning stuff, which really is just an exacerbating factor) are rooted in survivor's guilt, so we can maybe connect with her over that commonality.

Someone hasn't been keeping up with the game. There's plenty of Abyssals that are definitely Axis and even IJN (protip: the IJN was the only service to ever field torpedo cruisers).

The big reason the Allies don't come back as kanmusu is that American AA would completely break the game...

>>42744256
And then a week later Planefag has an abyssal harbor attack and we'll be hitting ourselves for getting rid of them.

Also Sammy would be livid.

Oh, also-
We shouldn't be using "going Abyssal" interchangeably with a shipgirl going rogue and killing people. There are concrete physical differences between Kanmusu and Abyssals- the chitinous nightmare hulls, the pale skin and shark teeth, the body horror of some of their noncombat hull-bodies.

A shipgirl going rogue/crazy is still an extremely real concern and something to be avoided, but let's not say it's the same thing as transforming into one of those Things without good evidence that there's actually a connection.

But as it has been pointed out, the USN will likely cover this up. As an example, the shooting down of Iran Air 655; the captain, who was characterized as unnecessarily aggressive by his fellows and who basically broke all the rules, was neither disciplined or removed from command, and still got his Legion of Merit medal.

I am curious now, who actually gets to make that call to decommission ships at the end of their service?

>>42744256
Optionally, we find out more about the Abyssal supply routes and staging bases, which has been hinted at several times by Deme to be a bitching idea. Not to mention they're great for pinning down subs, as we saw in that press release Goto was heading up last thread. Or swarming small Abyssal destroyers, again, like we saw video of in that press release.

“Shipgirls are more than weapons,” you snap, shifting into second and roaring past a slowpoke actually adhering to the base speed limit. “You've already fought one war for us. We owe you something for that, even if you never fight again.”

“Yeah,” Kitakami says dryly. “But you owe cruisers and carriers more, right? Since you sent the destroyers into that meatgrinder to cover them, and all.” Your hands squeak on the steering wheel as you crush the faux leather in your grip. “Did you hear there's a war on, Admiral?”

“I fired the opening shots,” you snap back, shifting into third as you thunder back towards the north docks, back towards the party - and the small motor launch that'll take you to the nearby island shore where the ship-girl range is set up, facing the distant targets on the breakwater. “And that ship was more than a *weapon* to me, too.”

“More than weapons?” Kitakami marvels, looking out over the scenery sedately. “...Maybe. That doesn’t change the fact that we're built to kill, head to toe. She didn't even need a cannon at the rate you were going. Probably would have just ripped an arm off.”

“What was I supposed to do? It's my JOB!” You snap, wrenching the wheel around, causing the rear tires to skid around a curve as you near the docks.

“An attack dog is more than a gun, Settle, but you don't see me petting them,” Kitakami returns levelly as the Jeep screeches to a halt just past the party pavilion. Several people both human and shipsloot look up, voices raised in greeting, but you stomp right past them, heading for the motor launch. Tossing your cane down from the dock, you leap after it, swearing a blue streak as your right thigh explodes in agony on landing. Your snarls mingle with the outboard's as you crank it violently. It catches with a throaty roar. Seizing the tiller, you gun it for everything it's worth as you slam it to one side, whipping the boat's nose towards the open bay, and open up the throttle. The outboard screams with power, kicking up a massive rooster tail as you race absolutely fucking nowhere.

The engine sputters to an idle as you turn to look back over your shoulder, knowing damn well you cast off the line. You find it hooking around the stanchion and over to Arizona, who's standing well clear of the spray, the line wrapped around one hand. She's giving you her usual level-headed look plus a slight narrowing of the eyes. She tugs on the line gently to say that she'll reel you in if you don't feel like kicking it into reverse for her.

Honestly, going by last thread, maybe we should. At the very least, we should probably steer well clear of any shenanigans, no matter how harmless they may seem to be given our knowledge at the time, because obviously our knowledge is woefully limited and anything goofy we do can and will become seeds for Planefag to reap a harvest of tears from later.

Well, prioritizing and then sticking to the priorities would probably suffice.

Arizona is Settle's bodyguard. She is in place to protect Settle from angry shipgirls, Abyssals, Yakuza assassins, Chinese commandos, or any other threat that might come his way. Allowing her to do her damn job is in fact one step on the road to behaving like a professional.

And I think the best bet with Hate is to apologize as a friend, and then make it very clear that the Admiral is speaking now when he orders him to get the Corgis under control.

>>42744792
It was *nice* rack. NICE rack.

On a more immediate note, grabbing all the spare shipsluts and assigning them to round up all the dogs right now while we go talk to Hate would be ideal.

>>42744829
>"Mythical creatures don't count, Hate."

>>42744834
Anons, we need to convince each other what is our end goal for this conversation.

I believe the immediate goal is to round up the dogs.

The long term goal is for him to cooperate as a part of the team. Whether that means giving him more opportunity to fight, when it is safe or not, or to train the dogs.

>>42744849
My boss let me be "manager for a day" once. Killed my dreams of climbing the corporate ladder dead.

It's very clear due to the actions of people here that Settle has a habit of going full retard, and if Arizona can grab Settle next time some of the people here decide to go full retard then so much the better.

And in a tense confrontation with Hate Settle can't afford to go full retard.

We're getting on a boat and leaving Yokosuka. Unless the Corgi's are actively following us, I doubt Hate brought any with him. Kinda would ruin his whole 'I'm not doing this dogsitting shit anymore' schtick.

And we shouldn't give him anymore ammunition than absolutely necessary when going into this.

And another reason: Before Arizona or any of the other shipgirls, there was Hate and Settle. It just doesn't feel right bringing other people to this.

>>42744889
Sometimes I wonder why anyone wants to lead.

>>42744834
The problem I have with the Iwo Jima strike team is, why would we even send in humans?
Even if Hate's weapon turns out to be workable, what about armor?
The fact that Abyssals are firing what is essentially artillery right at anyone coming at them?
The only thing that can stand up to that is an actual ship or a kanmusu.
It's not like combat armor is going to be able to stop shots fired by an Abyssal.

And even if combat armor does stop the fire from an Abyssal's fairies on the ground, we aren't there for the fairies, but for an intact Abyssal.
So really, what is he going to do?

Guys, guys.

Well, I bet big E would be.

This whole clusterfuck literally started with Settle going and pulling that shell out of Arizona himself

Shigure left of her own volition bro, Hamp didn't need to do anything.

>>42745025
We could get her to help.

I bet Willy D probably will be good with the dogs. She can hear Mikasa after all.

>>42745025
>Shokaku can now speak corgi apparently

He's implying Shoukaku made her unwelcome at the party, I think?

>>42745031
We're talking about Arizona not Fap Angel

>>42744520

Because. Don't question the truth.

>>42745002
Shiggy doesn't seem to get along with the Kongou sisters.

>>42744981
>A way for humans to even the game.
All that does is give humans a way to hit an Abyssal before getting turned into a fine mist by return fire.
Not to mention, the only way to make these weapons is by taking them from our own shipgirls, meaning that for the time it takes for the gun to grow back, that shipgirl is going to be down a cannon or three.

I'm leery of turning soldiers into kamikaze units that also weaken our own ships at the same time.
Sure, if we had a few weeks or months where we wouldn't have to deploy our battleships, this might be a good idea. But we don't know when we'll need to sortie, so it seems like it's not so good.

>>42744952
Weren't the tops of her turrets painted orange?
If so, orange.

>>42745058

I think I read on the Wiki it was to represent her decks and such being smeared with...ash? Or something, to lover visibility.

Either way, I APPROVE.

>>42745055
That, yeah. The corgis just being unfortunate with her being alone.
Though if I'm misremembering and Shigure wasn't even there when we showed up with Shoukaku, well, then I'm just flat wrong

>>42745010
Well, that's just me man.


I think it'll be very effective, nonetheless.

>>42744952
>no option for "bandanna red"

This poll is shit and you are shit.

>>42745068
Just take them from Chikuma or the outdated ships.

Remember your XCOM spirit anon. Initially we did things to our troops that was suicidal, but in the end we fought on the same level with the aliens.

>>42744888
Can agree with rounding up the dogs as short term. Long term is repairing the gulf between Hate and Settle I'd think. Which begins with giving him "real shit to do" to paraphrase him. Giving him Sammy or Willie to train to also tend the dogs is a good move. I think asking after the project might help in the I-Am-Speaking-As-Your-Friend bit, but again gives unspoken implicit approval which is something we should be super careful about.

>>42744938
It's not that he doesn't give a shit about the boats! It's that he thinks he is doomed to be a doggy daycare as opposed to doing what he was trained to do. Ya know, trained, bled, sweat and sacrificed to be Really Fucking Good At Breaking Shit, and here he is tending a firing range for a bunch of shipsluts, and taking dogs for walkies while his friend/CO dicks around with carriers (or fails to) and has issues all across base.

That's literally disney channel levels of teenage derp right there. Given Japanese culture and her own personality, the worst you could expect is Shokaku avoiding her.

Sure, I can get behind that.
But if we do, we should tell Hate that this is what he's endorsing, what he is agreeing to.
Leading people to die just so we can test out some new weapon on the enemy.

It IS what is done in war, but I'd like to know if Hate understands what he's saying. I think he just wants the glory and doesn't care about the lives of others.

Then he'll argue that he should be allowed to go alone with just other shipgirls with him in the assault. Which I'd let him if he can get someone else to keep the Corgi's in line.

Gotta question. Write up about Kaga mentioned Kongou singing a nightcore version of the national anthem if I recall. So does that mean Kongou has, or has attempted to go clubbing?
