Harry And The Shipgirls: Prisoner of Shipping (A HP/KanColle Snippet Collection)

Reader mode
-_-
>_<
*inhales, pinches nose, and somehow refrains from saying anything*

To drag things back to plot...

We just saw Niiyodo being quite pleased about the mini-vacation in Wanko's territory. Considering the timing, and certain lulls in the fighting, both Percy & Supprin likely are 'free' from their duties. Percy due to having worked on some of the Tasks iirc, while Supprin is - iirc - more or less on reserve/inactive duty atm. Niiyodo might want to go out on a minor limb here and use her not-inconsequential influence with her very obvious soon-to-be, to see about slotting in her soon-to-be in-law sisters & brother, to that vacation spot.

Amii would love it because the heat will invigorate her and remind her of home, yet be just as 'exotic' a destination as England. Supprin will be close to her office in case things go pear shaped, but still far enough away to relax. That or "I'm literally within earshot in case my chosen relief screws up by the numbers, so nobody really needs to panic", and so can enjoy a weekend away.
Ooyodo gets to warm up, possibly getting some schadenfreude at Goto's expense, and can try on a few of her very-obliviously-is-cosplay cosplay outfits without prying eyes around to blow her secret. Percy gets some desperately needed sun, warmth, and eyecandy.

Niiyodo gets headpats from sis & Harry for not just initiative, but forwards thinking/planning.
 
.... why is wine getting more attention than talking about the final stand of a JMSDF ship on Blood Week, or the potential political shitstorm in the Pearl of the Orient?

Disappointing

Just to confirm, JDS Yuudachi is/was the Murasame-class DD, which would have been 6 years old on Blood Week.

What might also be impressive was her taking out abyssal destroyers with her torpedoes, given these would be lightweight antisub torpedoes that don't pack that much explosives and are meant to crush submarines with shock damage.

Guys... Maybe less wine talk, please?

PS: I am trying to see if I can write some stuff that involves the early years of the Abyssal War.

yikes. I check in for the day and everything is on fire.

I'm sorry for not being more attentive and vocal. I just don't feel I have much to add these days.

@Harry Leferts I'm guessing (kinda blindly) the plan was to lead into the return of Smol Yuudachi either as a natural-born or maybe as Yuudachi 1's first with Fubuki? Either one would be neat.

@mikelima777 more early war stuff would also be cool.


It would be awesome if someone would write the moments when various nations' first shipgirls appeared and the reactions. Once again, I lament my own lack of talent in that arena.

Japan we saw with the piece.
USA possibly... Arizona or Pennsylvania appearing in the defense of Pearl Harbor. Either or are welcomed with open arms.
Germany. Bismarck, perhaps? Deutschland? Someone with a great deal of sense of duty, or the wish to redeem themselves from their service to the nazis. Far more cautious than the Americans, since y'know nazi ships.
England, who else but Hood? Not counting Victory since she seems to be on this plane for much longer since she is friends with Dumbledore...
Receives a hero's welcome. Since... Well, it's freaking Hood.
Italy... Who might be Italy's first shipgirl? Certainly not Aquila... maybe Vittorio Veneto? Also a great deal of caution.
Russians... Gangut, perhaps? Aurora? either or seems to be a good fit. An odd mixture of caution and hope I would expect here.
China... I know too little about their fleets, of who would heed the call. Isn't it canon that they got mauled pretty badly by the abyssals and the armed forces fought tooth and nail? Also, their summons were pretty late.

Sorry if this is rambling. It's pretty late where I am.

We saw Japan I know. Hood or Dreadnaught for Britain. For Germany I kinda like the idea of Bismark, alone or accompanied, sailing in through a fog bank like the the Sabaton video, and turning the tide in some desparate battle. I don't really know enough regarding Chinese ships to say. Same with Russia
 
I'm thinking that Canada may have one of the largest numbers of self-summons, mainly as a reference to how most of the Canadian Military in both World Wars voluntarily enlisted.

But keep in mind, most of the Canadian shipgirls would be Frigates, Corvettes, and the like. Haida probably was one of the largest Canadian shipgirls to self summon. Then there are Sackville and Acadia.

TLDR, The Canadians get more than average self summons following Blood Week, but alot are ships smaller than destroyers.

PS: Ships I recall getting self summoned

UK: Belfast, Hood, Warspite(?)
US: Iowa as a natural born, and possibly Enterprise as well.

China: I don't know if any did self summon on Blood week

I think Sammy B Roberts was also self awakened as a natural born.

As for Blood Week itself, we did see the actions involving Nathan Drake and then Captain Fairbanks surviving the initial attacks.
 
USS Taylor: "Could you imagine the memes if I had been the one back first? I have enough issues without being labeled 'the shipgirl the escalated against the abyss."

I did a brief snippet of Enterprise being Summoned through Resonance when Celshiro/ChocoAddict did the first Summoning via Ritual that Shimazu did.

She was out of it for a few weeks after putting up the BArrier that protects the city, needed at least a month to workout the kinks and preformed that summoning in the early hours of November

Do you remember which thread that was?

I hope it wasn't my post? Because if so, "It's never what you'd expect that catches people's interest..." wasn't intended to be mocking, just commentary on how fickle the thread's interest can be.

I literally pointed out that it was a derail that really had no such reason, you made that comment... and then promptly decided on helping to continue the derail. And when I sarcastically made the comment about how, obviously, the subject of cooking wine was both more interesting and relevant compared to shit like what happened in Sasebo during Blood Week, what happened?

Said post got a number of "😆" reactions, followed by someone posting about how that means that I should instead focus on food.

So excuse me for feeling more than a little bit annoyed and frustrated.

That would have been my post. And I apologize for that. I severely underestimated how irritated you were and i didn't quite think things through when posting that. Again I sincerely apologize for that.😓
 
As for Shigure, I'm wondering/trying to recall where the other members of Nishimura's fleet are, aside from Mogami.

Specifically Michishio, Asagumo, and Yamagumo.
 
Hey, @Pinoygamer, correct me if I'm wrong, but you world-building didn't have shipgirls self-summoning in the Philippines during Blood Week, right? I don't remember any of your work indicating so. Did we just, basically, defend ourselves on our own during this period?

Canonically we saw Dreadnought appear AFTER Warspite & Duke, so counts as a self-summons.

Warspite had just given orders to 'nail the White Ensign to the mast/hull' (aka, die fighting, rather than ever surrender), in the middle of a battle, and was feeling very hard put, when 'mom' appeared and dropped a perfect salvo on her attacker(s).

I....think(??)....it was either insinuated that her parasol either has a hidden sword in it, or it was actually shown as her using it, in that same chapter. TMK though, it's never been brought back up.

Enterprise I believe was in the USA's 1st summons attempt and not a self-summons.

This reminds of what I posted over on SB about why the JDS Yuudachi was given the nickname after her sinking of "The Mad Dog of Sasebo":
____________________________________________________________________________________

That said, it is not hard to imagine why she got the nickname based off her WWII predecessor's.

If you were on one of the nearby ships/boats or aircraft, or on shore, and you see her coming out of the gloom and smoke. There's massive fires on her from bow to stern, most of her superstructure is shot to hell to the point where sections are nothing more than twisted, blackened metal, her bridge is a wreck, and she's obviously taking on water. Yet, despite that, she is still fighting and dodging falling shellfire and bombs as well as torpedoes in the water. Her flagpole at her stern falls with the Naval ensign, only for crew to rush there, grab it, and hoist it back up before tying it into place as a "Fuck you". And even as she is dying, she is killing the foes around her. And then you see her final charge, where she rams, and runs over one corrupted Destroyer, smashes another to the side, possibly doing the same to various PT Imps also in the harbor, and then finally rams a Heavy Cruiser, digging deep before firing point-blank into it until both of them go up in an explosion.

And... even as her back half sinks, there is the tattered Naval ensign still flapping in defiance as it goes under.

Needless to say, she deserved the name.

Fubuki's going to have to get all the reinforcements for the delivery room to keep the Taffies from surprise adopting her...
