[X] What. This can't be- Oh. Okay. You understand.
-[X] Turn to Kongou "I get it, you don't want your admiral to meet me. I did faint from seeing a new ship summon herself, it's cool. I shouldn't bother them, no need to meet Willy D. I-I'll go bug Iowa or *sniff* head back to the docks *sniff* I think pipes leaking or-or something, bye."
[X] Start walking back to the docks as naturally as you can after finding out even the Japanese think so little of you, trying not to cry your little Fletcher heart out.
The best way to counter a troll is to act as emotionally affected as possible. Guilt trip time!
 
Sure this works too. It's better to keep the vote unified. Besides Willy is a drama queen.

Well, this looks interesting...

[X] Blink. Rub your eyes a moment. Ponder that this might be a test, or a joke to set you at ease, or to distract you from anything else in the room.
-[X] Thank the Admiral for his concern. Also, thank him for the timely aid in battle. Scan the room for things from which the mask may have been intended to distract.
-[X] If or when he asks if you have any questions, ask him:
--[X] Why have America's shipgirls been sent here instead of serving in American waters when they are so difficult to summon... unless, maybe, that is the reason? For Japan to research why this is?
--[X] If your reputation is likely to cause trouble?

Poor Porter is developing a complex...

Well, we're actually giving her one, I feel a little bit guilty for not feeling at all guilty for finding this hilarious. Besides, I'm sure plenty of shipgirls/kankou/whatevrs have plenty worse complexes than we do. As does the Admirality, apparently. Or maybe it's just the Japanese? Oh God, this deployment is probably drive Porter completly bonkers! HAH!

Probably? We've been awake for 5 minutes and we already think they are insane. For good reasons too. I don't believe there is any posibility of this not happening. :rofl:

Oh, @cswvna I ended up changing my vote. I'll strike-through my previous one.
 
What are the chances that this "Admiral" is just some mook filling in for the real Admiral? Hence the disguise.
 
I can't help but wonder; is this all a dream? Are we just having a very vivid coma fantasy or something?
 
AHAHAHA! VICTORY ONCE MORE!

Now look at my message counter.

Edit: I should elaborate. You aren't the first to ask that, so I stopped manually answering the question, and turned it into a sort of retroactive trolling of anyone who bothers to ask.

It's extra funny, because the answer is right there the whole time! hehe

I don't think I already voted. Anyway, much as I can appreciate drama, this feels like it's not the time for it. The whole "fool me once" mantra--and since we supposedly are meeting the Admiral for the first time, insulting him in order to be dramatic is not the best of first impressions.

EDIT2: Fuck, I don't even know anymore. Let's give them one chance of having the benefit of the doubt. If it turns out that this guy is NOT the admiral, THEN we can go to the planned melodrama vote.

That's the point of my vote, that's not the admiral.
