    I made Super Original Super good fanart of Sinterklaas Canarias for Leningrad.

    Is a proud German Captain such as yourself, Pac, attempting to win the eternal love and devotion of communist Leningrad? I approve ?

    I have a question!  I wish to know what the myth behind the morgana is!  What sort of stories have belles and people made up to explain the origin of our mysterious foes?  This sounds like a perfect one to be presented by the equally mysterious U-29!

    I support this question!

    How often does the emotional connection that drives a Belle to select her Captain lead to romantic entanglement? Is jealousy an issue when a Captain has multiple Belles in his service? Be interesting to hear about this one from a Belle I'd think. La Motte-Picquet perhaps? Been enjoying more Belles turning up besides some of the fan favorites in the various updates. 

    I support this as well. It would be interesting how belles in general feel about the connections they form with their Captains and it would be good to get a blast from the past in Le Motte Picquet.

    Amazing!

    It seems the Americans flew Lancasters over France. Mahan approves. :) 

    I couldn't help but notice the II- what happened to Mk I? :)

    That poor crew.

    Also, it's an honor to have Mahan's approval!

    Which military rank do the Belles hold in the various navies?

    Are they even recognised as persons or just things? How do the officials react?

    And on further notice do the sailors react initially?

      Hide contents

    Especially if a white US or UK sailor or captain served on a ship whose Belle is non-white. Does the US navy expand segregation to a Belle level, where black people are only allowed to serve on black Belles? *popcorn*

    It was already said it's a great honour to harbour a Belle, but my latter questions aim at the "first impressions".

    Black sailors could serve aboard white ships (though, only as cooks and valets). Ultimately, I believe the sailors would be caught up more in the supernatural aspect of Belles than race.

    This one was originally told by u/galadon over on Reddit:

    Three WW2 Generals from the allies were arguing over who had the bravest soldiers.

    The British general called one of his men over.

    “Private! See that nazi tank in the minefield there? Go destroy it.”

    “Yes, Sir!” The soldier replied and started running.

    He ran across the unmarked minefield until within range of the tank with his anti-tank weapon, took aim and fired, destroying the tank all the while under heavy fire from the enemy trenches.

    “See, British soldiers are the bravest.”

    “That’s nothing” said the Russian General

    “Comrade! See that enemy soldier manning that machine gun there? Run across the mines into the trenches and kill him with a knife.”

    “Da, Comrade General!”

    The russian soldier bravely charges across the minefield under heavy fire, jumped into the trenches fought his way through many enemy soldier then being shot many times from the machine gun nest before reaching that soldier and slicing his throat after a bloody brawl.

    “Nobody more brave than Russian soldier.”

    The American general, unimpressed said “Let me show you all what real courage is.”

    He calls one of his men over.

    “Private! See that enemy command post over there? I want you to run naked across the minefields, fight your way through the trenches, go to the command post and kill the commanding officer bare handed!”

    Without hesitation, the American soldier flips him the bird and says

    “Go xxx yourself, General.”

    “See! Now that takes some real balls!”

    Fanfiction = reliable source of accurate lore

    If this math computes, I urge you to never sign a contract without legal review. Yes, I'm a VB fic writer but I wouldn't exactly pass off The Improbable Captain as a reliable source of lore no matter how meticulous I may be - and trust me I am. My fic is a fun flight of fancy - a great yarn about being in the right place at the wrong time. Or is that the wrong place at the right time?  It's not meant as a VB tutorial. I urge anyone looking for a such a tutorial to run, not walk, from my little drabble. 

    I think there is a bit of a misunderstanding. I don't believe they were implying that the fanfics are reliable sources of lore but instead that the lore had influenced the fanfics and common points arise from reading them. The Belle's manifest from the Morgana fog. They usually choose a captain to follow themselves regardless of rank or position. The belles use the actual ships to fight and not direct combat as seen in KC. These are all bits of lore that influenced the fanfics that can be seen by reading them. It's the same way that I wouldn't say that WW2 movies are reliable sources of information but that someone can learn common themes from WW2 from them. Mainly in the 1940's, two sides involving all the major nations of the war at some point, etc.

  8. Our first post-interview updates will be about answering a Lore based question about the world, story, a paticular belle, etc. This thread is meant to house those recommendations in a single location. I personally recommend a question involving the Morganas but unsure of what exactly. Anyone else?

    Hood is indeed glorious and best ship named after an admiral as everyone knows. Much better than that fascist ship Admiral whatsherface :P

    I believe you mean Mahan is best ship named after an Admiral.

  10. This one's old and kinda well known but funny to me none the less.

    A German Coast guardsman stands the radio watch when suddenly a distress call comes over the speakers in English.

    Unknown ship: Mayday! Mayday! This is the passenger liner Elizabeth, we are taking on water! Repeat, We are sinking!"

    The German Coast Guardsman remembers as much english as he can to decipher the message before responding.

    "Vhat are you sinking about?"
