But he'd more than doubled the list in the few months he spent working with shipgirls. The girls' unique biology—if you could even call it that—allowed for, as Akashi like to put it, "New and more interesting ways of hurting yourself From well-meaning but unthinking doctors trying to put several thousands tons of steel war machine though an MRI, to patching destroyers after they ran their little turbines too hard, to… well just about anything Tenryuu got dared into doing, the stories were as endless as they were insane.

Think you need to close the quote at the end of "hurting yourself", if that is where you wanted that sentence to end.
 
For some reason I can't stop hearing Musashi in this voice:

 
Not when the kitty releases deep charges anytime he is disturbed from its sleep.
Well, it can be worse.

Several K-class blimps were used for weapon effects tests at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) during the Operation Plumbbob series of tests in 1957. K-40, K-46, K-77 and K-92 were expended in Project 5.2, events Franklin (Fissile) and Stokes (19 kt, XW-30 device).[9] The tests were to "determine the response characteristics of the model ZSG-3 airship when subject to a nuclear detonation in order to establish criteria for safe escape distances after airship delivery of antisubmarine warfare special weapons."[10] The "airship operations were conducted with extreme difficulty."[11] The Navy was trying to determine whether the airship was capable of delivering a nuclear depth charge. The Navy wanted to know if the blimp could be among the aircraft to deliver its planned Lulu (W-34) nuclear depth charge.


Whoever introduced that girl to lolcats would die.
Wait until someone tell them about Red Alert and Kirov airship.

So, will Akron and Macon get some really thick lipstick*, sharpen their teeth until they're pointier than a Re-class*, and start carrying ludicrous amounts of bombs?

(*For reference, this is how I represent the shark-maw nose art thing, as seen on Yamal. Which would be pretty comparable to the KIROV REPORTING shark-tooth nose art. Yeah, I made a Yamal shipgirl somewhere because good god I am way too fond of that warpaint, like, holy actual fuck I should not enjoy it as much as I do)

Facepaint is probably more authentic way to represent it.

"Once we're there," continued Jersey, "Heermann and her sisters are gonna ride a train back with the Major. Meanwhile, the rest of us are gonna steam for Everett to be reconstituted into a combat element."
I don't remember Amtrak establishing service between Anchorage and the CONUS.
 
ya know having three taffies in the escort group is going to bring some bad luck...for somebody.

and we still haven't seen Sammy activate 'Mini-BB' mode on somebody yet.
 
You know I was thinking about San fran and I honestly wonder what she's going to be like. Other then Wash (who's clearly suppose to be Jersey's complete opposite) the American shipgirls all seem to have personalities tied to their service careers, which in San Frans case isn't good news.
 
Wash's personality is based on her career too. The most notable point of that career was sneaking up to Kirishima utterly unoticed, hammering her with several volleys from point-blank range, then fading into the night without taking so much as a single hit. In her entire military career, she was only ever hit once by hostile fire (by a shell that failed to detonate after passing though her radar array.)

She's a ninja because... well, she was. She's a calm professional.

Beside when she and South Dakota were in the same port...

Their entire crews, including the officers, fought each other. And if the records are true it was WASH crew who usually started it.

The MPs finished it.

I meant the complete lady part. I always felt Jersey acts like your stereotypical loudmouth American because of two things. Stereotypical new jersey and serving at the beginning of the "merica, FY" era that started under Reagan. I suppose Washington might not act like that due to being decommissioned before that era but she almost seems to act like some DC high society type...which on second thought seems like a play on her classes tendency to be considered the most beautiful battleship class ever built.
