I relate, Shira. I can relate.

Considering the mood I'm in now, I may write some form of cute. Maybe that Haruna+ Quokka thing that kept coming up back in the day.
 
Not sure if it's been said but the Abyssals are stepping into a much bigger mine field then I think most of you are aware of.

1. Pearl Harbor as a land formation is very old, even if it didn't start as a harbor proper
2. Oahu has the traditional burial grounds of the Hawaiian Royal family
3. From what I remember the Hawaiian pantheon is pretty benevolent to the people

If When the Abyssals touch the burial grounds they will make a lot of spirits very very angry.

'Byspitz knows she fucked up cutting up Ari's wreck. I doubt she'll be expecting a legion of Hawaiian warriors to show up and drive he into the task force's guns

Heavy armor and big guns might help a bit against angry spirits of Hawaiian warriors, but they don't help much when you're deck-deep in surprise Pāhoehoe. ;)
 
Abysmark and Tirbyssal are just out making everyone mad. On the other hand I half expect Tosa to start forming alliances with shady human governments. Or at least protection shakedowns. So many captives per month and your shipments get through...

That's too nice. Needs to be aa
*Some surviving Marine*: The Volcano...

SHE AWAKES!

Wouldn't be surprised to be honest. If shipgirls, the gods of the sea, and Abyssals are around; then it wouldn't be too far fetched to think that other things might be around as well.
Besides, volcanic ash will also do a great job of wrecking crap too when you get right down to it. Not to mention that Hawaii has had, from time to time, pyroclastic flows/surges.

It be interesting to see, but i believe they too much conceptually-evil and#or insane for it.
Anyway, more realistic is not shakedown for convoys, but going to any non USA/Japan/China shoreline and transmitting that she will bombard a city in a hour (before you can realistically evacuate meaningful number of people), unless n captives are delivered.



 
Jersey and task force pull into range of Pearl. Suddenly a volcanic fissure opens, filling the dry docks to overflowing, engulfing Abyssmark, her unholy offspring, and the H class. Tirbyssal tries to escape when a vent opens that blasts two of the battleship row mooring quays into the air, which fall on her, pinning her down in front of the lava flow.

Johnston: Yeah! That's what happens when you mess with Pearl! Oh! Sorry, Miss Kaga!

Kaga: No offense taken. They got their just reward.

Shinano: (adjusts her glasses) Was...was that part of the plan?

Musashi: I, Musashi, was not expecting this....

Heerman: Hey, Jersey, what's wrong?

Jersey: This, this is awesome, we just have some nazi cleanup to do, but,.....this fucking sucks! This must be what Pennsylvania felt like at Surigao Strait! No wonder she's such a screwed up ball of rage!

Hoel: Hey, guys, lets let Jersey take lead on the remaining Abyssals. I think she needs em more than we do.

Quite a few of the girls picked up new family members with the Ohio class SSBNs and it looks like even more family will be appearing with the Virginia class SSNs. Too bad there can't be more family photos like this.

*Iku meets SSN New Jersey*
Iku: Ooh, so you're the other New Jersey...maybe you'd like to play with Iku and her torpedoes...
Jersey (BB): *Sneaks up behind Iku and clobbers her* Yeah, no...not happening. *to SSN Jersey* Stay away from her.
Jersey (SSN): Umm...o...k...?

:D
 
A Texas Reunion

A clear, hot, Summer day on Galveston Island. Texas (BB35), Texas (CGN39), and Texas (SSN775) are having a picnic.

BB35: Lil Tex is just so sweet, (Gestures to the blond sub girl building an intricate sand castle) but she is so feisty. Always looking for something to get into.

CGN39: She's a lot like you, Mom. A real fighter.

BB35: Don't know if i ever looked for trouble like she does. Not that I don't mind a good shootout, and neither do you. Honestly she reminds me more of stories about my mother, the old Texas.

CGN39: You never knew her did you?

BB35: Nope. She gave up her name for me, but...she was gone before I was commissioned. Now, old Saratoga, not our Sara, but the ship that held the name before her knew my mama pretty well. She was her flagship in Cuba. Told all kinds of crazy stories about her, and how she was always insistent that she was the first American battleship.Of course all those girls back then were a little nuts.

(From behind them): Nuts, huh? I'm thinkin' Armored Cruiser New York was probably a little senile before you got to know her, mi hija.

The two Texas girls turn and stand to see the strange voice behind them. Even the sub-girl turns and looks. The woman before them is not quite 5 feet tall, with a moderate bust, and not fat by any means, though not an hourglass figure either. Brown eyes and long black hair with just a few strands of grey to belie her age, with features showing a mix of European and Native American ancestry. She wore a simple blue cotton dress and a blue Navy uniform jacket that had gone out of style before the Great War, topped with a tan cavalry style hat bearing the badge of the 1st US Volunteer Cavalry.
Around her waist was a worn leather gunbelt decorated with silver hammered pesos, and carrying two equally worn short barrel Colt Peacemakers in .45 Colt and a bone handle Bowie knife.

BB: (smiling) USS Texas, Battleship One, at your service.

BB35: Mama? (Runs and hugs her)
CGN39: (hugs them both) Grandma!
SSN775: (joins the group hug) This is so awesome!

Overhead a siren begins blaring. A voice announces, "Abyssal forces have been identified within 50 miles. Seek shelter immediately. All ship girls report for orders."

SSN775: Alright! Time to sink some Abyssals!

BB: (running after the sub girl) YEEHAAW!! Come on girls! Lets see if we can't send them Abyssal-spanish bastards* running!

BB35: (realizing her old Spanish-American war vet friend had been right, turns to the red haired cruiser beside her) Oh, dear lord. Tessa, lets see if we can't beat the abyssals and keep my granddaughter and your grandmother from being sunk.

CGN39: Copy that, Mom. Lets go get 'em!



*- for reference, Gen. Joe Wheeler, a former CSA general, who commanded the US cavalry in Cuba in the Spanish-American war would, on occasion, mistakenly refer to the Spanish Army as Yankees.
