Saturday 11th November (Day 209)

It is cold when you wake up that morning. An unfortunate reminder that it’s winter in Japan. Ooarai has managed to avoid most of the bad weather given its ability to move around the ocean, but unfortunately to fight a match on Japan you have to return to Japan where it’s freezing.

Otto has also realised the temperature hence his massive protests when his biological heater gets up to get out of bed. It’s so cold that instead of charging out for breakfast, he stumbles back into the blanket.

“I can’t blame you buddy,” you chuckle as you get up and get ready yourself. Twenty minutes later, you’re out of the door and on your way to the warehouse. Surprisingly, you’re the first one to arrive – usually Miho and some others are around first. You just shrug and get to opening the warehouse.

A few minutes later the first crew arrives.

“Commander Hermann!” Azusa cheers as she arrives. “Wow! You’re first? Usually Commander Nishizumi is here!”

“I know, right?” You chuckle. “How about you get your tank moved out here for transporter since you’re here first?”

“Yes sir!” Azusa declares, before rallying her girls to get their tank moving. As they do so, other crews start to arrive, and they begin moving their tanks out of the warehouse as well.

Miho arrives shortly afterwards, as everything is getting into gear.

“Morning,” you greet her as she walks up to you. “Sleep in today?”

“Yeah,” she admits, slightly red. “I was about to rush over.”

>“Well, that’s what deputies are for right?”
>“Good thing I’m not just a pretty face, huh?”
>“Why didn’t you?”


Evening all, sorry for the delay. This was going to happen like a week ago, then Immortal Empires came out... yeah.
