It was a rushfull day in the office. Shipgirls were being assigned new roles, and to new groups, while simultaneously HQ wanted you to be more aggressive with the Siren threat. It's all overwhelming, until you met her...

"I have the papers you asked for, Shikikan. Please, don't worry about the financial problems, I got Admiral Hipper to help me. She is one I trust to help us."

the girl smiled. That gentle yet adorable smile. Her name was Z23, or Zed or Nimi. Some close to her call her Nimi, but she allows anyone to call her that. She may be short, and a destroyer, but she has the heart and mind of a carrier. Hell, if you could upgrade her to operate a carrier rigging, you would have!

Hmmm? Shikikan-sama, are you okay? You're staring a lot at me.....We should focus on your paperwork! We're almost finished!

she pinched your cheek while frowning that stern teacher-style frown. Oh, and she's been with you the longest since you became Commander of this base. She was the first one you obtained, and she's been your secretary ever since, and you wouldn't trade her for the world....also she is a bit impatie-

Shikikan-sama!!
