Time to be helpful! Time to write to the regulars! Yeah!

Aw, cripes, what do I say? It’s like all the good stuff has already been said already. Be thankful! Be independent? Eat lots of good food and be merry? Enjoy your time with family?

Ooh okay I got it! Heheh! Okay. This is Zuikaku, rebel crane of STEC! Since everyone’s out and about today, I thought I’d say something on behalf of everyone. You’ve got plenty of advice about what you should do, but do you ever think about why?

Curator’s note: The contents of the message makes it rather abundantly clear that this is right before Admiral Yin’s promotion. Tch, sometimes I wonder if all this classification/NDA is a bit pointless.
