...Admiral, I can't thank you enough for today.

You're still on this? You're like a broken record.

Ah... sorry. But, just so much happened today...

...it's not a particularly rare occurrence, though.

Eh...?

That business in town... Inside the Navy, there's quite many that can't see you as anything but weapons.

Of course, there are opposing opinions also. It's not really something that you need to worry about much.

And what about you... Admiral?

Me...? When you look at, "We" and you girls, Murasame - we're treated as kin, aren't we...

Kin?

The whole thing about that there's not a lot of guys who'll "treat you as human".

...hey, how about yourself, Murasame?

The path of living the life of a human after being discharged is there too.

It's not like a shipgirl can't live anywhere but the battlefield now, is it.
