Jintsuu called you, didn't sh-*sendai'd*
Well... she was involved:
Just chuckling, the black haired boy grinned at her. "Finished it up a few days ago..." Suddenly, he grinned. "I do have one piece of news that my cousin Jane told me about. She apparently heard about it from Jintsuu-Oba."

More then a little intrigued, Hermione nodded some. "Go on... what did you hear from her?"

Glancing around, Harry leaned towards the screen. "Apparently Jinstuu set up this guy over in the US with her sister, Sendai-Oba. And after their first blind date, Sendai-Oba's become... interested in the guy. So now she's been after him for a week or so."

Several seconds passed before Hermione winced. "What the heck did that guy do for Jintsuu to set him up with Yasen-Baka?" At Harry's look, her expression turned deadpan. "Yes, we've heard of her even in the Royal Navy." Becoming thoughtful, Hermione hummed a bit. "What's his name anyways?"

To her surprise, Harry shrugged. "No clue. All I know is that his screen name online is 'Elderly Ferrous' or something like that. Jane can't get much more then that from Jintsuu-Oba before she starts cackling."

Hermione blinked at that with Harry returning her blink. After yet another blink, Hermione shook her head. "Right, note to self, don't annoy Jinstuu."

Expression turning blank, Harry snorted. "That's great advice for any of the Sendai class really." Moments later though, he frowned. "I wonder what they did to annoy Jinstuu-Oba that much..."

On the screen, Hermione only shrugged a bit. "Honestly? It could have been anything." Frowning, she shook her head. "Still, siccing Sendai on him is probably a bit much..."

In reply, Harry only shrugged a bit. "Probably."
:p
 
Reread the Northern Princess bit, and had some idle (somewhat cracky) thoughts.

Forgive the quality, definitely not my best work.

"Jersey, what if you carry Heermann?"

"I can do that?"

A third voice, carrying a sharp Dutch accent interjected, exasperated. "Of course you can. But leave it to me."

Jersey's head snapped to the left, as the new ship spoke from her port. But the stocky, powerfully built kanmusu had already ignored her, as she began to slip into the water next to Heermann's shattered hull, gently shouldering Johnston and Hoel out of the way, as she slid beneath Heermann and firmly, yet tenderly, wrapped her arms around Heermann, murmuring quiet reassurance to the badly battered destroyer as she began to slowly rise back out of the water.

Then, the newcomer turned back to Jersey,and raised an eyebrow. "Well? I assume you have a dock in mind?"

Jersey's jaw flopped uselessly for a moment, before her brain caught up and her temper exploded to the forefront.

"Who the hell are you!? And where the hell did you come from?", she shouted at the… unusually shaped ship.

The slightly Asian woman simply grinned sharply as her fairies finished wrapping support webbing around Heermann's shattered hull. "Surprised you don't recognize me. I carried Sammy B. home in '88."

Admiral Williams' voice came in, utterly resigned. "Well, I think it's safe to say no one expected this one."

"I'm the one and only Mighty Servant 2! Come on. There's work to be done." Gently stroking Heermann's hair, Mighty Servant set course for Adak, escorted by a very confused Iowa and a pair of equally confused Fletchers.

So, I've been both really busy as of late in addition to dealing with a stupidly extened AC repair process (that still isn't done) and a bad case of writer's block. As a result, the next Lady has been extremely slow going. Even Ari's been able to outrun it with half her boilers cold.

As an apology, I have some Mutsu of the distracting variety to share.
 
Mutslug a cute. Yamashiro surprisingly so too.

Too battleship for me. Prefer cruisers. But very cute.
 
Now all we're missing is pancake eating Marine using a ka-bar. That would be a sight that's hilarious and amusing in of itself.
 
LIttle does she realize this information is being radioed back to Wash. Purely for... reporting purposes. Yes, let's call it that.

So really, when the marines claim they're doing " 'land survey' for fortifications"... :p


What does malfunctioning ordnance translate to in girl form...?

Either AP shells can't AP much if there's no A where they land, or 'performance issues; happens once a while'.
