Finally back at this! Sorry for not posting for so long

Welcome back, Sleet Clans!
I would like to point out, though, that Amy is not attempting for Novaya to get another suicide attempt in. The Novayans are just over-reacting.

[Legatia]

I have my computer back as of now- if you guys could fill me in on what I missed I'll be able to respond soonish.

The Himi twins are making food seen on the party list as Shinosaki tries to tell them to make snacks and drinks instead, as Chrysantheme is to blame for the suggested food for the party and movie night. Meanwhile, Chrysantheme and Shiroiyuki brought an Ocelot to make Novaya happy, all the while the two girls were screaming at his face to be happy.

That, Amy still holding him close, and a few other things:

- Rhiannon got Prophet to the Scrap Shed, where he went to work immediately, before getting Lewis and Searc settled in at the Cruiser Dorm, showing them the most important places as well, before checking up on Prophet - who by then had finished a reel projector, helping him with cleaning himself up.
- ARY Lanza Blanca began to move towards base, unbeknowst to the base.
- Novaya, now accompanied by Nevlamas as well, cries into Amy's shoulder (which got her accused of trying to get Novaya to try it again with the suicide). More and more people come to the restaurant.
- Stilly cried herself to sleep in Diamantina's arms and is currently sleeping in her bed, while Dia and Sergei sew together.
- Abyssal Movement in the Shipwreck Islands was detected by Tokai, who reported home. In general, the Abyssals are awaiting the arrival of a Main Force.
- Whona and K 591 continued their patrol, so far without interruption except for the crates, so they should be able to return in a bit.
- Weather Forecast: Rain in the evening and the night, coming from the North, going southwards, likely going to stay for the night and finish in the early morning hours. No storm.

Did I miss anything?

So, you've heard me talk lots about Brightbell's band fairies IC, how they're sorta integral to her social life outside the few actual shipgirl friends she has at this point. Well, if you ever wondered what they looked like, yesterday I drew them all! (I'm not sure if male fairies even exist in KC, so if not just envision them as all girls with hair cut to resemble their original counterparts).

I'm quite sure, that there're no male fairies in the original game, but that shouldn't stop us.
Anyway, those seven are just cute. I can hear the jazz from their instruments and see the fairies of other vessels (especially SDF-vessels ; )) dancing to their tunes. Well done!

Thanks! I purposely designed each one after their instrument while I focused in on them while listening to my usual jazz playlists. In real life, (in Regria) once the war ended, they actually moved on to become a relatively famous band in the musical world, and sometimes (before they died in real life), they actually came to the museum surrounding Brightbell herself after her decommissioning. There, they played tunes that they did or even composed themselves on the ship, and did interviews, Q&A, and signatures. They've got quite a legacy behind them, actually!

I see - very interesting story. Maybe some of their CDs found a way to the Free Lands? ; )

I'll release a map of the area with the Abyssal Installations marked on it, as well as an ORBAT of the Abyssals, later today, so that we know, at least OOCly, what we're up against (it will already include the reinforcements, EDIT: Might take a while more, though, but it will come).
So, plans for day 3 include our own second supply convoy, patrols and a few other things, including expeditions (if the flagship is willing).

[Higher Japan]

If i haven't mentioned i'll be mainly unable to post for the week or so unless i have a computer at the hotel due to vacation.

No problem - have a nice trip!

...So, anyone alive...?

[Yekrenia]

...So, anyone alive...?

I'm very much alive, ma'am.

[Kraicia]

...So, anyone alive...?

Aye, what I’ve been missin’? H’ve I forgot to heark’n any errand writin’?

Umm, I'm not sure what else you're asking, Kracy, but I think you should ask that question to the OP (Selkie).

Present and accounted for... just waiting for CDS, actually.
So, summary so far, from Day 2:

- After the election did not turn out in Horizon's favour, the Arkanan decided to put herself up as an independent element and was consequently thrown out with the option to return if she were to abide to the flagship's, Coriolanus' orders. They then proceeded to begin with mapping operations of the mine barrages (maps they would have access to from the start, by the way) and surveillance of the activities at base.
- A patrol of Whona and K 591 departed, finding a few crates from yesterdays supply convoy in the water, collecting them, before returning. Unbeknowst to them, Abgrund, the Arkanan sub, shadowed them with unknown intentions, which caused the Arkanans to declare her a rougue asset.
- Being brought together by a training excercise, many of the ships fire at each other in a more or less free for all, with Stilly going up against Dia and coming out with a 16inch-paint-shell to her chest at point blank. Meanwhile, no definitive 'winner' of the excercise can be made out, but a lot of dirty clothes. Over the course of the day, which Stilly spends with Diamantina, she comes to admire her as her sempai (although she has no idea, what that means), but still crushing on Gibson Grover. While trying to fix her dress, Dia discovers, that Stilly suffers from PTSD, allowing her to sleep in her bed, while she fixes the dress with Sergei visiting.
- Amy exchanged recepies with the Supply Ships, resulting in something very delicious.
- Following Novaya's Suicide Attempt, the Novayans devise a plan to cheer him up, namely a movie night, with Coriolanus approval (an event to raise the whole base's morale is always good), getting the preparations underway. As they are at the restaurant, the twins having called to dinner with many attending (Nevlamas, Fyodor, Amy, Novaya, Whona after her patrol, Searc around the same time), Chrysantheme and Shiroiyuki begin to devise other plans to cheer their friend up, only to discover other methods might be helpful, too (Amy allows him to cry into her shoulder to let it all out, Nevlamas listens to him, Fyodor starts a conversation about Manga), only to turn batshit bonkers (sorry, Novaya) in the process. It is proposed, that Coriolanus gets a report about the behaviour of the two. Shinosaki restrains them with a watergun, conversations continuing. Meanwhile, Rhiannon gets Prophet to the scrap shed to build a movie reel projector, which he manages to do, making her thank him by washing his face and something else (snogging the living daylights out of him), but that is interrupted with a report about the Novayan Situation.
- Out at sea, the battleship Lanza Blanca makes her way towards the base, waiting for the night. She is detected by the Abyssals, who proceed to move in her direction, seemingly hunting her - however, as she is running on fumes, she cries for help from any allied unit. The Abyssals are in the process of receiving their own supply convoy and LB has vital intelligence. An Armoured Cruiser Princess (played by Mestovakia) sets herself up at the Shipwreck Islands and is discovered by Higher Japan's Carrier.
- New additions in the thread: Carrier Prophet, Light Cruisers Lewis Point and Searc, Battleship Lanza Blanca (on the way, hunted by Abyssals). A few more new characters have yet to make their debuts.
- Weather: Rain hard enough to prevent flight operations, but not strong enough to be counted as a storm. Will pass during the night.

Did I miss anything?
I am thinking about skipping ahead to Day 3, if no one minds, adjourning the movie night for another day due to weather.

[Regria]

That may be an option, but I was looking forward to seeing Rhiannon come back and be pleasantly surprised by the instrument playing of Brightbell and fairies, first. :L

[Legatia]

My apologies, had a lot lately. I'll post soon, though I might need reminders for those I need to respond to.

Going to bed would be the last step of the day anyway, so she will be surprised and ask for an encore. ; )

Glad to have you back.
As for the request: Higher Japan would be one of the most pressing ones. Shinosaki also has a report for her once she gets going from the restaurant or the other way around (be aware, Coriolanus might need a bottle or barrel of wine). Other then that, no one immediately jumps to mind, but if there are, please speak up.

[Yekrenia]

I’ll continue my posts when everyone else reaches nighttime. It appears I have jumped the gun with my posts, so I wager that I should sit and wait patiently. If not, then I must be in a hurry for action.

Alright - no problem. If anyone jumped any gun, it was me.

[The Cross and Davids Star]

Finally, I got a post up.

[Legatia]

Mine is up as well. Cori is enroute to the dining hall, if anyone needs her.

[Novaya Equestria]

Expect Shinosaki to report Cori of what's happening, and Chrysantheme and Shiroiyuki going bonkers trying to think of plans to make Novaya happy.

[Sterkistan]

Oh yeah that's right. It's a holiday week in America. Explains the absences.
