Chunni/emo/poetic(?) abyssal is nice,i like it.
EDITED
[ ] Find a meat person to hug thank. Melee and/or symbiotic like BB hime's perhaps?
[ ] The fires onshore are pretty. Maybe you can help it along? Probably aircraft/cannon/missile
[ ] Join in by sending a "boomy thing" at one ship. Cannon/torpedo
[ ] Use a "ratatatat!" at ships in general. Machinegun,AA gun
Hmm symbiotic is nice but then i prefer carrier,or maybe torpedo. That said
[X] The fires onshore are pretty. Maybe you can help it along?
well depend on the situation i may switch to hug/torpedo.

Like i said,this is just beginning,so nothing of note particularly happen,which in turn attract not that many people.
Let's just wait till we start reaching the story 'kay? or atleast we know how the characther looks/where are we/interaction with other people.
TURN - A (Not So) Safe Harbor 1.2
[X] Find a meat person to hug thank.
Part of you really wanted to join in the destruction occurring around you.
That side of you wanted to gleefully stoke the fires into a burning maelstrom, send explosive shells towards the defenceless moored ships, and pull out a thing which went "ratatata!" then spray bullets at their fragile hulls.
Conversely, the larger part of you was too busy to indulge in such flights of fancy. Instead you were mournfully mulling over the vague memory of having dropped your last "ratatata!" things into the waters quite some time ago.
In your defence it had been a pretty heavy thing to lug around while you sailed through the fog and you'd thought that you could maybe get out quicker if you had less weight slowing you down...
"Oh, for the armaments lost and the opportunities found.
How my dark, dark heart weeps black tears at th-"
The sound of gunfire interrupted your soliloquy, causing you to frown briefly before you realised that in your quest for eloquence you had been ignoring your surroundings. That was likely a bad habit and one you promised yourself to get out of.
After all it was only an unappreciative audience who ignored the performance and, with burning buildings and sinking ships, this was quite the show.
Unhurriedly you headed for the nearest wharf where you could see any sort of activity going on. There were meat people moving, small flashes of light, and in general signs that someone there would be the one you could thank for the ongoing destruction.
Vaguely you recalled that there was a sort of thing you did to show liking and approval to someone. It was a very vague memory though, but you were pretty sure that it involve reaching around the meat person. with one arm on each side then not crushing them to death.
It was a difficult maneuver in concept but, with practice, you were sure that you could manage a 'hug'.
While you might not be the fastest thing in the seven seas the harbour wasn't precisely the Atlantic ocean either so it took no time at all for you to reach the wharf from your starting point. The wharf (or maybe pier, the words seemed to overlap) was lower to the waves than the roads at the side of the harbour had been and several small craft tied up here, but of greater import were a cluster of figures ducked behind a set of crates.
With their back to the water this makeshift cover didn't really hide them from you, but it seemed to be doing its job as every so often one or another popped up to fire off a shot. You weren't at all sure who they were trying to shoot, but given how hard they were trying it had to be important to them.
"Greetings from the black heart of the ocean depths!"" You said brightly from right behind them, using your very best eerie voice which just happened to vibrate off the droplets of ocean spray which were making your hair seem a mess. "You have earned my approval through your earnest acts in si-""
The sudden sound of your voice had caused the four men to freeze in place for a moment, obviously paying close attention to your words as they should, but you hadn't gotten through your introductory speech when they dove in all directions.
You blinked, quickly checking the skies for any kind of incoming bombers or barrage which would have caused them to scatter, but nothing presented itself. Looking back down it was apparent that two of the four were running away, one was laying down and leaking red on the pier, and one had scattered in entirely the wrong direction.
Picking your way through the boats (mere future flotsam and jetsam in your opinion given how unarmed they looked) you knelt down on the waves surface. Carefully you took hold of the struggling meat person, who had apparent taken the phrase 'dive for cover' a little too literally or just gotten confused about which direction was which in the dark, then lifted him up out of the water.
"Now that was silly of you." You informed the man, trying not to accidentally break any bits of the fragile thing as you transferred him back onto the dockside. "I'm pretty sure you aren't a submarine to try doing that..."
You were a scion of the darkest waters, a great woman of the seas and death. You were majestic and wilful. And you definitely didn't shriek then drop him in disgust after he coughed a mouthful of something onto you.
"Eeeww!" You scooped a handful of actual sea water up to wash off the 'stuff', "What did you do that for?"
You didn't get any immediate answer as he continued coughing, but as he cleared his lung you kept trying to clear whatever he spat off of your chest.
His voice was hoarse when he finally spoke, still down on all fours, "I.. Thanks for saving me?"
"You are welcome?" You answered, spitefully leaving off the reverb that you'd worked so hard on. Someone who spat on you like that didn't deserve to hear your voice in its full majesty. "I saw the fires and stuff so I came to see if you needed any help or anything."
"Ah...Thanks for the save." He hesitated then admitted, sounding rather sheepish, "We weren't the ones who were putting out the fires or anything. We were trying to have a protest, show that we wouldn't be pushed around, but some people got carried away and then the Teeth showed up."
You nodded even as you thought over the words.
Obviously he didn't want to be mistake for those who were stopping the destruction and gratuitous property damage seemed like a good way for a land-based being to demonstrate that they weren't a push over. That made those 'Teeth' (Perhaps it was a type of meat person?) obviously those who were trying to prevent the damage
"Do you need any help?" You wouldn't have wanted to butt into someone else's fight and accidentally ruin some ongoing strategy they were running. "I don't really have any weapons just now, but I'm stronger than I look."
As well as heavier, but you were not going to admit that. A lady never admitted to being a little over her ideal displacement.
"Well, since you're a cape," A quick glance down showed that you hadn't suddenly gained anything covering your glorious body, but you made the intuitive leap that he was talking about a class of meat person like 'destroyer' or 'cruiser'. "Maybe you could do something. You probably know what you can do better than I would though..."
He shrugged, "I can tell you about what is going on. Whatcha wanna know about though?"

...Worm..really? ...can we go to the other world? brr this world scary.
And aparrently we lose all our eguipment..though we do have local..contacts? Pretty sad,b-but not likes i want to blow the whole area just for the luz or anything like that.
Well anyway probably original event or at least we are not in any event that happen at canon worm.probably.
Are there any capes here i wonder?
Somehow i think our Emo-Chuuni is abit(much) socially inept(understandable),but also have somekind personal..issues (which is usually normal) and amplified with her amnesia (not good)
Well for the votes
[X] "How do I tell who is on your side?" (Cooperate with 'allies'.)
I prefer have more information,though i lack the abilities to make write in or cohesive question..let alone emo+chunni style...
By the way GM, what do we know about ourselves or any knowledge really? Do we know about the abyssals and detailed info and them? Do we know that we are abyssal? What's our stance to humans? How much do we know about them? Probably just some fluffs really but i am curious.

That was what the last vote was for... but nope... people voted for hugs and no need for weapons.
[X] "How do I tell who is on your side?" (Cooperate with 'allies'.)
We are a magnanimous ship, and though this meat person spit on us, we shall help this worthy cause.
Well, sit. But it's pretty much the same?

I actually missed the part that said it decides weapons. I just wanted to MC to hug people. She's been alone in the fog for lord knows how long, afterall. Also, Hugs. Everyone likes hugs.

/me shrugs... Tanuki thinks that torpedoes/missiles or machine guns would have been sweet... but people felt it wasn't.
The protagonist's memory is still vague about things that she hadn't focused on during her long journey through the fog so, generally, something has to jog her memory for it to really come up. Given the lack of other Abyssals or shipgirls certain memories about them will be harder to bring up than others.
Three voting options which would have you with fighting stuff and instead people went for the other one.
I am a bit confused about your reference in regards to local contacts though.
Exactly.
Um, I thought it had been stated in a sufficiently blatantly manner that I'm bemused that it seemed to have been missed...
Arkatekt
Harbinger of Shitluck
Yeah, it wasn't any issue with where it was. I was just being inattentive and skimmed right over it without it registering. Entirely my own fault, but I'm glad it pleases you to know it happened.
(Still would have gone for the hugs though. Because Hugs.)

Well we now have have a source of information,and "allies",for now which not bad at all,and with local contacts i mean that,locals of this world (not that we know about it)
anyway trying to make write in.
[X] "How strong they are?" (frontal assault with focus of the stronger one)
-[] Check your appearances. A lady's appearance must stay prime,especially in this dreary stage of firefight, find a mirror,or any reflective surface,or even quick look directly at our clothes will do. It won't do if we are a mess,the audience won't apreciate it.
Yes that's an important one for me since it seems we:
1. Human enough so not mistaken with case 53.
2. Not mundane enough to be mistaken as normal people.
is this acceptable?
