Anya stifled a yawn as she sat at her table that she shared with Ishigara and Sofia as they watched the fleet enjoy dinner for another night. However, this night was somewhat different than the rest.

The presence of Tirptiz, the blonde Battleship sitting with Mississippi and Musashi certainly reinforced that fact. And Stras sitting with Nagato and Hyuga only still kept it in the foresight.

But aside from the apparent random visitor's to base, or the luck of the draw that had transpired during the last summoning, things certainly still had a way of going off the rails.

Anya eventually let the yawn overcome her, covering her mouth with a hand as she let her dinner settle within her, her other hand planted firmly on her cup of tea. Looking to the woman, Sofia arched a brow.

"Someone's tired...." The Captain said. Anya nodded, taking a sip as her yawn calmed down.

"Yeah. I didn't manage my time with the Gato sisters effectively between awake and asleep. I need to get that fixed before I even think of teaching the carriers the basics of rifling." She said. Sofia nodded as Ishigara looked to the Admiral.

"But what about Berlin and Paris? Should they not be made aware of what has transpired here?" He asked. Anya nodded at that as she sighed.

"Yes, they should. We'll have to get in touch with someone from their navies. But I'm not exactly sure how to do that. For right now though, we need to figure out where those two will be sleeping tonight. Because for the most part, I don't want them anywhere near each other tonight." She said, staring at her tea as she rested her head in a hand. Sofia nodded as she looked to Ishigara.

"Your dorms wouldn't possibly have the space to house one of them?" Sofia asked. Ishigara nodded.

"We can handle as such if that's what she wants. Yamakaze will need a room as well, and basing this off on how well they got along today, I do not see issue with allowing the two to room together if they so wish. But that still presents the question of where Tirptiz will sleep." He replied. Anya nodded.

"She can have a room to herself or she can room with some of our girls if she wants. I know North and Wash have space for one more. But we'll have to see what they want to do." She said. Ishigara nodded as he watched the fleet for a moment before looking back to Anya.

"So what about the rest of the girls? Such as Hoel and Yancey?" He asked. Anya shrugged.

"It's not hard for me to imagine Lo and Kit talking Saratoga into letting Hoel sleep in their room as well. Yancey may have to pick a new room, but I'm willing to be Dionysus will join her in there." She said. Ishigara nodded as Sofia looked over the fleet another time before looking to the two Admirals.

"We need better organization of the fleet. As it stands right now, we have no way to identify them besides names. We need more than that." She said. Anya arched a brow.

"You mean like sorting them into divisions and the like?" She asked. Sofia nodded.

"We would be better able to deploy the girl's more effectively with smaller numbers. We would've been screwed had another assignment come up while the other sorties were going on." She said. Anya pursed her lips.

"I think that has more to do with the fact that six of the girls we had on hand didn't have their riggings." She said. Sofia shrugged.

"And they still don't have them."

"They do." Anya answered. "They were transported aboard the Missouri. That and extra clothes for the six. But I'm going to have to let Hayfield know about our new three and let him know the total situation here. Maybe we can get a German team put together and have them start some designs before their girls start showing up in force around the New Year." She said. Sofia nodded.
