Panel 1
TTK: Ughhh... I'm so tired these days... I just can't get enough sleep...
SFX: Sink

Panel 2
Asashio: Commander looks pale...

Panel 3
Asashio: A large-scale event on top of dailies...
I can see how he'd end up like this...

Panel 4
Asashio: As the secretary ship, I have to maintain the Commander's wellbeing!

Panel 1
Kasumi: And
since he's exhausted, he's lost his appetite...
[Sigh]

Panel 2
Kasumi: But you're sure he's hydrating properly, right?
Asashio: Yeah...

Panel 3
Arashio: Then he's not getting enough...

Panel 4
Kasumi: Electrolyes.

Panel 5
Kasumi: Restore his mineral balance and his appetite will return.
Asashio: I see.

Panel 6
Asagumo: But the problem is, how do you do that...?

Panel 1
Asagumo: He's not getting enough from his regular meals, so...
Yamagumo: Snacks?
Asagumo: Will he eat snacks when he can't work up an appetite?

Panel 2
Michishio: What about salt candy? 	* Quite a common home remedy in Japan, along with copious amounts of Vitamin C

Panel 3
Michishio: As long as you get them in his mouth, he'll get better, with or without an appetite.
Kasumi: That's it!

Panel 4
Arashio: If Asashio's making the salt candy, then it's Asashio-candy!	* "Shio" also means "salt" in Japanese
SFX: Shiiiiine
Asashio: So we'll be able to get him to eat it, even though he's fatigued!

Panel 1
Narration: She quickly prepared some for the Commander to try.

Panel 2
TTK: Thank you!

Panel 3
TTK: I'll chew through as many as you want, since you made them!
Asashio: I'm honored that you think so highly of me.

Panel 4
Kasumi: So...

Panel 5
Kasumi: It didn't have much an effect, you say...?
Asashio: Yeah.

Panel 1
Asagumo: Maybe there wasn't enough electrolytes?
Yamagumo: Commander's an adult male, after all...
SFX: Ponder, ponder

Panel 2
Asagumo(?): We need to make sure he gets enough for his body weight, right?

Panel 3
Asashio: Yeah.
[Mhm]
Kasumi: [Nom]
But too much is bad for you too...

Panel 4
Ooshio: Electrolytes come out in sweat, right?
Won't we be able to figure out if he's getting enough if we just lick him directly?
Arashio: !!!

Panel 5
Arashio: That might be true, but, well... tsk tsk tsk.
Ooshio: If we put the Asashio-candy and Commander-flavor together...

Panel 4
Asashio: L-Lick..

Arashio: How wonderfully pure...

Panel 2
Asashio: C-Commander?
TTK: Huhh?

Panel 3
Asashio: That candy yesterday was... lacking...

Panel 4
Asashio: ...and, uh...

Panel 5
Asashio: in order to d-determine the c-cor... correct concentration...
I need to determine... the concentration in the Commander's sweat...

Panel 6
Asashio: Would it be alright...
if I checked by licking you, Commander?

Panel 7
TTK: What!?
[Jump]

Panel 8
Asashio: [Shock]
TTK: O-Of courssssse...! In fact, I want you to...!
[Woaaaah]

Asashio: Right... well, then... if you'll excuse me...
SFX: Blush

Panel 2
TTK: A-Ah... yeah...

Panel 3
TTK: There, the muscle around back...	* There's a dick joke here, but I have no idea how to work it in.
Hahh... hahh... Asashio sure is serious about her studies...
[Pant, pant, pant]
Asashio: [Shake, shake]

Panel 4
Asagumo: Huh? Where's Commander?
Goya: He's testifying before his superiors about that recent incident, dechi.
