Y/N: < Good Morning to all of you!>

Shangri-La: < Hey, Commander! >

Memphis: < Morning, Commander. >

Y/N: [ Walks onto dock and looks on city in backround ] [wispers] New york cit-

In that moment NJ hugs him tightly.

NJ: Welcome in America, Commander Y/N~! Don'tcha love that kind of stuff~?

Y/N: [rolls his eyes, slightly uncomfortable] You didn't change at all, New Jersey.

NJ: Don'tcha say~

Shangri-La: New Jersey, you should give commander some personal space!

Y/N: [smiles awkardly] I'm not against hugs, but I agree with Shangri-La.

NJ saddens a little.

NJ: [ Release Y/N from hug ] If you says so.

Y/N: Thank you. [ Back up a little and look on them ] I'm happy to see you all.

All shipgirls: We are happy too.

After looking around, Y/N notice something.

Y/N: It changed so much, from what I remeber.... It's so modern now.

Memphis: In recent years, base gone trough complete modernisation, and now it's Eagle Union R&D main center.

Y/N: Eagle Union at it's finest! [Giggles]

Memphis: We can show you around, if you wish.

Y/N: I would be glad if you could.

Memphis: Let's go then.

Some minutes later

They walks inside huge building. NJ wanders after them.

Memphis opens doors to main hall. There is many prototypes, from torpedo launchers and torpedoes itself, to Battleship turrets.

Y/N: O my!

Memphis: This is where we build new wepons and test their durability.

Y/N: Incredible... I mean, R&D here was always ahead a little bit, but now, It's just something else.

NJ: [Giggles] We are glad to hear that!

As they walks futher into building, they reach Roofed shipyard with 3 drydocks. 2 of them are free, 3rd is Occupied by Iowa.

Y/N: Let me guess, you still makes kansens here?

Memphis: Yes. Currently we work on Iowa-

JN: My big sis~! [Stands near Iowa's ship]

Memphis: But it's going very slowly. She's not easy to work with.

Y/N: When she will be ready?

Memphis: Hard to tell. Year? Maybe more, maybe less...

Y/N: Better than nothing. [Looks around]
