Oh boy oh boy oh boy I get one of these!
So! You know the saying, “All Shipgirls Are Created Equal,” right?
Wellllllllllllllllllllll. I’m not surprised if you haven’t heard of that one. I came up with it just now. Aren’t I so clever, haha!
Um. Okay. Well, truth be told, not all shipgirls are created equal. Some of us are a lot better at some stuff than some others. Some of us are really good at shooting stuff and picking out a target on the fly. Some of us can’t hit the broad side of a barn without significant assistance.
You can guess which side of that particular spectrum I’m at, hahaha…
Anyways, we’ve got a bit of that Rifleman’s Creed there. Don’t get me wrong. Every shipgirl can fight. We’re all pretty good at it (in theory). Even I’ve managed to score dozens of solo mission kills and I’m flatly one of the worst shots in STEC.
But, you know, there’s a lot of jobs to be done. So, when there aren’t Abyssals to be fought and I’m not practicing or training, I’m volunteering my time to the finer arts of writing! Most of these days I write borderline scandalous romance fiction centered around my friends. When I get tired of this stuff, though, I head down to STEC’s informational warfare section down in Intelligence to help out.
I think they like me a whole lot! I mean, I notice whenever I show up, the little guys scramble to get everyone in charge involved to make sure there’s something I could do. Nowadays, though, we’re involved in some pretty big research projects of public opinion. So, instead of writing fun stuff, I’m mostly stuck writing boring but practical briefs instead.
