Hey, Yura, are you sure this is a good idea? I've gone through Takao's case file and she's... not exactly stable to begin with. Did she really, ahem, copulate with a guy until his pelvis actually broke and all? Even I find that hard ot believe, and I've gone around, so to speak. Sure, I get that it'll be good for her, but do you really want to unleash that kind of a catastrophe here in Yokosuka?

Regards,
Wainwright

Wainwright, I'm not exactly pleased with the whole thing either. Takao may be stable for now, and she's doing well under treatment, but there are no certified psychiatrists, let alone psychologists in your area and the world's pressed thin. My charges have already been pressed into service with the Singapore Armed Forces, and I'm doing all I can to help them adjust to modern life. Add to the whole diplomatic incident that will happen if another Musashi happens, well, I'm forced to do as I'm told.

Truth be told, I'm actually glad you're willing to help me. I could be forced to take on more patients and there's only me. My coworkers are forbidden to get near my charges and it's irking me to no end.

And as for that rather sensitive question, I have spoken to the parties involved and it did happen. On the first day she appeared. I am already breaking doctor-patient confidentiality by even saying that, you know.

Yours truly,
Yura

Thanks for the damn high praise, Yura. It's only a fluke I'm getting on with Naka like ducks to water and she still won't listen to me, despite everything I've said. I'm honored that a professional like you sees me that way. I'm not even trained to deal with this. I just weld things and make people feel better before they die. For some reason, the higher-ups think that's enough to handle shipgirls. And from what I've seen, you girls are...weird.

Regards,
Wainwright

Wainwright, one way of get people to talk is to talk about a common interest. You and Naka share an interest in music and while I am surprised at how quickly the both of you became friends, that is not really, ahem, professional, so to speak. Still, if it works, I don't see a problem with continuing it. Still, I hope you and Takao don't, well, go further than friends, because you might just break your pelvis. And one broken pelvis is more than enough on my plate to deal with.

Again, thank you for minding Takao while she's at Yokosuka, and I'll check back with you in a few months to see how she's faring.

Yours truly,
Yura


BACKGROUND:

Yura is a trained shipgirl psychologist, probably the only one known in the world right now. Her charges are the heavy cruisers Takao and Myoko, and the destroyers Hamakaze, Urakaze, Tanikaze and Isokaze. They all have issues with reintegrating with modern life. Well, Myoko has sort of reintergrated, but she's handicapped. As in, wheelchair-bound. Takao's a nymphomaniac, and 17DesDiv have their own issues that can't be covered in a short note.

Yura's in charge of all the shipgirls who are either unable to or have issues reintegrating into modern society. For now, she has six shipgirls and the international incident known as the IJN Musashi, who holds dual citizenship (Japanese AND Filipino, don't ask about the latter). Musashi doesn't need treatment, per se, but she's Musashi's, erm, chaperone, for lack of a better term. Singapore keeps the existence of shipgirls a state secret and while all of the Singapore Armed Forces know and are downright friendly to her (psychology being a field that needs people), they are forbidden to actually talk about her. Or help her regarding to shipgirl issues.
