I stood there, looking at our newest arrival. She smiled as her large, bushy tail stood behind her, and her ears looked so soft. I wanted to caress them. The white of their floof contrasting sharply with the jet black of her hair. Even her tail had a stark white streak through it, shining with an exquisite lustre in the sunlight pouring in from the open windows.

She blushed as I continued to look at her, and I was surprised to see how short her skirt was, showing off her lovely thighs. Her dress hardly contained her ample bosom… I was having a hard time thinking she was just a destroyer. Though I knew one thing…

I was in love. From the moment I laid eyes on her, when her sweet voice rang out in greeting, when she returned my gaze, her lovely golden eyes resting on mine. Suruga sighed and pushed me forward.

"Shikikan, I'm so happy to be here! Suruga is here too, that's great! Um, so… I might just be a destroyer but I was a flagship, once! I think… my best contribution will be… ah… love! I love you, Shikikan! The others, too," her voice just… so sweet, so soft. It was an actual comfort to hear it.

"Naganami, I, um… it's so… ah, jeez…" I stumbled over my words, and Naganami took the initiative, bringing me into a tight embrace, her tail wrapping itself around us. Her head rested in the space below my chin, pushing up as I returned her embrace. Her breasts were soft against me, and my heart was pounding.

Her tail, though… it was so incredibly soft. Beyond soft. It's warmth infused me as she wrapped it around us, and we stood like that until she reached up and tilted my head down, giving me a tender kiss before backing away.

A noise made me turn to see Suruga standing there, blushing furiously as she watched us, "Suruga, are you ok? I'm sorry if this is…"

"N-no! I swear, I'm not jealous. If anything, I understand now what it looked like when we were first together, and how it looked like you were being taken away despite knowing that would never happen. Plus, I've got you inside me… forever," Suruga smiled and shook her head, relaxing. "What I want… is to feel her tail."

"Ah! Of course, though… I want to see your tanuki side first," Naganami teased her. I was learning quickly that this shipgirl was having quite an effect on not only me, but others. I watched Suruga hug her tail, and smiled. She even let her ears show. It was sweet, but I felt a sudden ache, a need for the short, stacked shipfu that showed up in my life. Naganami looked at me and held out her arms, and accepted my kisses with glee, returning them just as easily.

"I have to ask… I don't think I've ever been this taken with a shipgirl before, at least not since Suruga," I admitted, Suruga too busy sighing into Naganami's tail to hear.

"Oh, Shikikan… I feel it too! Though let's not be too hasty, ok? I'd like to get to know you better, learn each other in every way we can…" She bit her lip, we returned to our embrace, kissing as my hands wandered, caressing her rump, squeezing its soft flesh and…

My hand brushed against her exposed slit, and she moaned softly into my mouth. I was surprised, but she took her own hand and held mine there as I rubbed her, focusing on her clit as she grew gradually wetter.

She didn't care for undergarments, apparently, even with her short skirt. I pulled her closer as my fingers entered her, and she broke our kiss, looking up at me and panting heavily. Her hand caressed the bulge in my pants, and I looked over to see even Suruga was taking notice as I fingered Naganami.

"Shikikan… it's good… inside of me… ahh! Let me show you how I can take care of you in other ways?" Her severe blush and soft skin were driving me crazy, and I picked her up, cradling her as I looked at Suruga.

"Suruga… I have to," I told her, and my shipfu nodded.

"I want to join, though… I want to be there too," she demanded, and I nodded, looking at Naganami.

"I want to make Suruga feel good too," she said, and we quickly made our way back to our quarters. In no time we were nude, my member pressing against Naganami's soft skin as we kissed, Suruga behind me, her lips fluttering against my neck.

I could feel both of them pressing against me, and Suruga reached around, taking hold of my cock and stroking it softly as I caressed Naganami's soft, perfect skin. Their heat poured into me, and I felt as though my loins were on fire.

I brought Naganami to the bed, laying her down and penetrating her, my member parting her slit and sliding into her as a key fits into a lock. Suruga sat beside me, kissing me as I thrust, Naganami's cunt squeezing me as she moaned, and I felt her hands reach up and take mine.

Suruga rubbed her clit, teasing herself as she watched her Shikikan and who she knew would soon share their bed. As Naganami pulled me closer to her, I felt her legs wrap around me, squeezing me against her with every thrust, her desire absolute and all-consuming. Being with her filled my heart with unadulterated affection, and unsurprisingly I felt our souls meet as she poured herself into me.

I accepted her soul, and as our lovemaking grew more fevered, her lips pressed tight to mine, her tongue swimming in my mouth as I groped her breast…

I felt a sudden sensation of completeness. I felt… whole, and I had just one shard left of myself to give, one hidden piece, small and special. It was nowhere near what I had given to Suruga, but I wanted, no…

I needed Naganami to have this last piece of me. I knew she was special, and that she was as integral to my future as Suruga. While she could never take Suruga's place… she could stand at our side.

I moaned, as, wordlessly, she came, her eyes wide as I felt her juices flow over my member, her cum covering my crotch as I thrust deep inside her one last time as the heat inside me overwhelmed my senses and my manhood swelled. My climax was sudden and violent, hot seed filling up Naganami as she moaned and squirmed, her womb filled for the very first time.

In that moment, I gave her my final shard, and her eyes lit up with realization, tears of unimaginable joy streaming down them as the pieces of her soul she gifted to me fit perfectly into the missing spots, and now…

A light, a heat filled me as we lay together, eyes only for each other, my head resting on her tail like a pillow. Suruga on the other side of me, spooning me and caressing me, fully aware of what had just happened and as needful as could be.

Naganami nodded, and I turned around, smiling and kissing Suruga, making love to her with a passion new to both of us. I felt myself inside her as we reached out and touched in a way that was once unique only to us…

Suruga, though, had eyes for Naganami as well, and climbed on top of her so I could take her while she kissed the lovely destroyer, luxuriating in her tail as it wrapped around the three of us.

I bent over Suruga, my arms wrapping around her and fondling her breasts while I pounded her, my lips urgently seeing out her lips, the scent of Suruga and Naganami together overwhelming me. I pulled out of them and, heedless of my cum trickling from Naganami's slit, pressed my nose in between them, inhaling their pure musk as my cock twitched, aching to be inside Suruga again.

Yet, I couldn't pull myself away. I felt such comfort, such love, such irresistible, pure desire when I inhaled them I failed to tear myself away! It was only when Suruga begged for me to be inside her again that I could acquiesce, and their scent stayed strong in my nose as I continued to fuck Suruga. Naganami's hand reached up and took hold of mine, gripping them as I approached my climax.

Another white-hot sensation coursed through me as I filled Suruga, and for the first time, I felt the three of us together. Naganami was there with both of us, her soul shining with her pure, sweet love.

We lay together, basking in the afterglow of our lovemaking, Suruga and Nagami on either side of me, my arms wrapped around them and holding me close as their soft breathing lulled me to sleep.

No words were needed to know what happened, to know that I was no longer in danger of losing them, and they of losing me.

I slept the sleep of a man who was finally complete.


Sniff.

Sniff. Sniff. Sniiiiffffff.

"Shikikan! We're in the middle of the hall, someone might see…" Naganami moaned softly as she braced herself against the wall, her legs trembling and her juices glistening on her dripping slit as I buried my face in her ass, my nose pressed tightly against her anus.

I just couldn't help myself. She smelled amazing, and her tail wrapped itself around me as though she was trying to hide this lewd act from any passing observer. I only inhaled deeper, spreading her ass and squeezing it as her intoxicating scent drew me into a lustful trance.

"Your ass smells amazing, Naganami! I've never… I've smelled nothing so good in my entire life…" I moaned softly, my cock throbbing in excitement as Naganami filled me with desire.

"I can smell your happiness too, Shikikan… I… ahn… your tongue is…" She wobbled a bit as I finally licked her cute little asshole, my tongue teasing her pink flesh. I leaned back to watch it flex a little before diving right back in, my tongue penetrating her as her soft sounds of pleasure grew an octave with sudden excitement.

Her habit of not wearing panties was just… beyond exciting, and the day before yesterday we had fooled around in a broom closet, then another night of passion with Suruga. Yesterday, I had taken her in the shower, multiple times, before Suruga had even woken up.

Though I had Suruga before, during, and after she was waking up, my member deep inside her rectum one way to say good morning! Well, anyway… Naganami's scent was always getting me worked up and today I couldn't slake my thirst. My tongue massaged the walls of her rectum, drinking in her scent, her taste, her essence.

Her tail hugged me tightly as I continued my ministrations, unknowing and uncaring of any potential observers. Her soft skin delighted my fingers as they sunk into her shapely behind, and I slid my tongue down to taste her juices as her ardor rose, her musk heavy in my nostrils.

Shivering in delight, I stood up and undid my trousers, letting them fall to the floor as my manhood finally stood free of its prison. I pushed into her slit and thrust as her fluids coated me. I turned her head to kiss her, and she responded as eagerly as I hoped. I reached around Naganami and groped her breasts, her nipples firm against my fingers.

"Naganami… you always make me feel so… so… ahn… happy!" I said to her as I pounded her from behind.

"I love being with you too, Shikikan, and I love you…" She said, smiling as she reached back and took my cock into her hands, forcing me to pull out of her. "I know what you want, and I'm going to give it to you, because…" she blushed, "I want to feel it, deep inside me. I want you to take my butt and make it your own."

She guided me against her anus and pressed back against my head. She spread slowly to accommodate my girth, yet I watched as my head slipped inside of her. Naganami's tail wrapped around us, forcing us together until she had taken me to the base, moaning, her eyes wide with lust and pleasure.

It was… fucking…

Incredible!

She was squeezing me so tight, but it was almost as though she had such fine control over her ass she was massaging my cock with it despite not even moving.

"Naganami! Your ass… your ass is the best! I can hardly stand up…" I moaned as I fought back against my orgasm, but she continued to squeeze against me, my entire length feeling her tender yet firm attack. I couldn't help it…

My loins ached, and with a groan of satisfaction I loosed my first load into her ass, my cum streaming deep into her rectum and filling her bowels. Even as I came, I pulled her to me and thrust rapidly, her moaning filling the corridor.

"It was so good you came right away? Aha… I love feeling your cock in my ass, Shikikan, you can keep it there forever! My butt is yours, ok? Take it as much and as often as you want, please~. I need you to keep going, I'm gonna cum soon too, I'm gonna cum from my ass!" She moaned as she pushed back against my thrusts.

I buried my face in her long, soft hair, inhaling its scent and kissing her neck as I could, my hands gripping her breasts tightly, yet when I tried to let go she made a sound of protest, demanding that I squeeze them harder.

Bolts of pleasure surged through me as thrust faster, my climax filling her bowels further as she moaned, her own climax erupting from her. I pulled out of her and, still hard, picked her up, and turned her around. She wrapped her arms around me, and I finagled my member into her gaping anus as she wrapped her legs around me. I pushed her against the wall and locked my mouth to hers as I pounded her ass; her dress hanging loose about her.

After I came again, I carried her into a room nearby and lay her on the bed. There, she brought her knees up and spread her legs, exposing her dripping wet slit and her now impressively gaped asshole.

It slipped inside of her easily, and I grabbed her thighs, pushing them down as I thrust deep into her, my cum seeping from her as I agitated it. Her slit was dripping with her juices, and she reached forward, rubbing her clit as she came repeatedly, her body given to lust.

A trickle of drool ran down her chin as her mouth hung open, her tongue hanging out just enough to make it erotic. Her eyes were glued to me, and as I stared back into their golden depths, I could feel her essence, and the gifts we gave to one another connected as her rectum squeezed me tightly.

"I can feel it again, Shikikan! I can feel it inside me, it's so warm, and I can... your smell is... it's joy, ahn... you're filling every bit of me with your joy!" Naganami's voice was husky, her desire seemingly infinite, a perfect match for myself.

"I love you, Naganami!" I proclaimed, and she giggled.

"I know~," she teased, her voice soft as she moaned. Another orgasm tore through me, and I felt my exhaustion creep in. I pulled out of her and lay at her side, turning her so she was facing me and pulling her close, lifting her leg over my hip and pressing my member against her anus, slipping it in as she moaned.

Our lips met as I thrust into her slowly, savoring the feel of her entire body against mine as she gently bit my lip, her eyes turned to mine and her tail pulling me against her as I squeezed her ass with one hand, her head laying on my other arm.

My slow thrusts gradually took me towards my climax, but I could feel hers come first as she squirted against me. She sighed with pleasure and I felt a warm wetness course over me as I thrust fully into her, about to cum.

"Ahh... Shikikan... I'm sorry, but I..." Naganami looked a little embarrassed as she relieved herself, unable to control her bladder after numerous climaxes. It was warm against me, and I moaned as I came inside of her again, my cock twitching as I gripped her ass.

"It's... it's ok..." I told her, and she smiled as we stayed like that, unmoving. "Truth be told, it isn't the first time, ehe..." I chuckled nervously, but she just smiled.

"Nagato, and Kaga, yes? I heard them talking about it, maybe we can try a little more next time, I love anything that makes you happy, Shikikan," she yawned as she closed her eyes.

This position was a little awkward to sleep in, so I disentangled us before laying together again. I couldn't be arsed to do anything else, so we just fell asleep stewing in our mixed fluids, uncaring about anything but each other.


Well, that happened.

Suruga sighed as she peeked around the corner and saw Shikikan and Naganami fucking like animals in the hallway, but couldn't help herself, and reached inter her skirt to tease her own clit.

His cock was gaping her ass, and she could see it from here, letting out a slight moan at the thought of him doing the same thing to her.

She didn't feel jealous, but she knew that Naganami represented a dynamic shift, and that the destroyer would now be as much a part of his life as Suruga herself was. Well, she was never exclusive in the first place, but perhaps she had just become used to her position at the top of the heap.

Though Suruga could tell that Shikikan's relationship with Naganami was not like her own, at least not entirely. She supposed that she should find some comfort in that.

She didn't feel jealous, but what did she feel? To have another given the same gift, no matter how small, as they gave her, felt... surreal. She watched them go into the room, quickly ducking out of sight, though she doubted they would have seen her, regardless.

She peered through the door as they lay curled together, and she saw a glow around them she knew as something that she and Shikikan shared. She sighed, and decided that she would not be able to rationalize away her feelings, despite knowing he needed to be there for so many other and had already given her so much.

Though, he had never asked her to do that... thing. She felt her cheeks burn at the thought, but was curious as to how it felt. For her to do it to him, or for him to do it... inside her...

"What are you doing, Suruga?" A voice made her jump as she looked over to see Shimakaze smiling at her. She quietly closed the door and led the destroyer away,

"N-nothing! Um..." Suruga felt her tanuki ears appear and groaned. Shimakaze giggled and reached up to stroke them. Suruga knelt down so she could.

"I'm sorry I can't join you again, but Yamato said they needed here me for now. Hopefully one day! Do you want to spend the day with me? I know you're the main secretary and... ehe... wife of Shikikan, but I miss you so much," Shimakaze's hopeful look would've made Suruga abandon the Commander to spend the day with her even if Naganami hadn't already made sure he was busy.

"I'd love to, you're a dear friend, and I was a fool not to notice it sooner," Suruga patted the destroyer's head, and they went off to enjoy the delights that only the Sakura empire could provide.


"Looks like we can finally speak again, Commander," my mirror image spoke to me as we stood on a platform, tracks running off into the horizon. This station was the only thing out in the desert, and I wondered why I was back here, again.

Yet, I felt no fear, at least not what I had felt before. After all, what could he take from me? I slept alone on my cruiser, Naganami leading the transport fleet and Suruga beside Nagato and the other vixens. It had been a busy week, and I honestly just needed a good night's rest, alone.

"What do you want, Siren?" I asked him, and he scoffed.

"Do not confuse me with them… they are merely tools to test you. You may have seen a few like me before… in fact, that's why I'm here."

"I don't follow…"

"Look at it this way; You survived. You lost most of yourself, but your kansen love you so intensely that they willingly gave up parts of themselves so you may live. Then, you gave what you had left to two of them," he explained, his glowing eyes narrowing in annoyance.

I shook my head, "You're saying that you can't do what you did before, whatever that may be… because they're protecting what little I have left of me?"

He laughed, "Spot on. Though, I'm surprised you lived. You seem to not care much about your own life."

"I don't. I feel my life is meaningless in and of itself. I mean, from what I remember of my life before this, I was a fuck-up. Drowning myself in multiple ways, apathy reigning supreme because, at the end of the day, I could just end myself if that came to it," I felt little in the way of emotion as I discussed the possibilities I used to consider. I was well past the point of it being personally impactful.

"Yet you live. Why bother?"

"Them," I replied simply.

"Hmph, you seriously place your value, which is not as little as you may think, in the hands of the Kansen? You think Suruga and Naganami will never leave your side?" He chuckled, as if privy to information I wasn't.

"Why would they?" I felt suspicious. In the distance, I heard the faint whistle of an approaching train.

"You stretch yourself so thin, trying to make each of your shipgirls feel truly loved. Naganami is a rare breed, completely incapable of jealousy, but Suruga is becoming troubled. Why would I share this with you? Well, so you can help prevent something coming of it. She loves you dearly."

He stopped, looking out across the desert, and I saw a sudden exhaustion creep over him, its tendrils exposing the wrinkles in his features.

He sighed and continued, "You've passed my test, at least. You lived because of them, but there is another place, where they lived despite their Commander. You know nothing of the true conflict, but they will be able to help you. How, I do not know… I cannot see the future. Yet you and I are still bound, though I doubt we will have a chance to speak like this again."

Drowsiness tugged at my awareness as I responded, "I just have one last question, then… why did you choose me for this test, assuming you had a choice?"

"You showed a great weakness, yet you didn't let it end you. Somehow, despite your desire to die, you lived. I just have one last question. If you would humor me," he turned to me, his eyes boring into mine, "Why do you crave your end so much? You've already died once, so why not embrace your reality? It's obvious you enjoy it."

The train whistle rang clearly as it headed into the station, the mechanical beast slowing to a halt with a rush of steam and a huff of its brakes. I considered his question for a moment before responding.

"Life isn't everything, and while I try to do my best while I'm here, I do not fear death, and welcome it when it comes because I do not seek it. My goal is not to serve myself, but to make sure my girls have the best life they can, and will know love. Some may capture my heart in a way difficult to articulate, so profound are my emotions for them, but all of them deserve love. Now, I believe you have a train to catch," I held out my hand, and he took it. A brief handshake, nothing more, no strange energies, no nothing. Just two men… well, one man and one being taking on the appearance of one… acknowledging each other.

"Just… one more thing. You ever think I'll get to fuck Purifier?" I asked, completely serious. To my surprise, he chuckled.

"Beneath it all you are still who you are… To answer your question, however… it isn't a matter of if, it's a matter of when."

With that, he turned and boarded his train.

I watched the train pull away as darkness swam into my vision, as though the train were taking the very fabric of reality along with it.

When I woke, I felt lonely. The pre-dawn hour was still as I went out onto the deck to examine the ships at anchor. The first rays of light were coming over the horizon, but it would be some time yet before we set off. I heard soft footsteps and turned to find Helena smiling at me.

"Good morning, Commander. I made you some coffee, I figured you'd be up early. Did you sleep well?" She handed me a thermos, and I took a swig. Excellent as usual.

"Helena, you're very thoughtful, thank you. How are you?" I asked her.

"I'm well enough, just happy to see you again. Can we spend some time together? I'd love to watch the sunrise with you," She asked, blushing slightly.

"I'd love to," I replied, pulling her close to me, my arm around her waist as we looked to the east. She rested her head against my shoulder and sighed in contentment.

I missed this. Sometimes I forget how important the little moments like this are. Though, thinking back, Helena held a special place among all the shipfus. If it wasn't for her…

Well, let's not think about that too much.

"Helena, I love you," I said, wondering how such simple words could carry such emotional weight.

"I love you too, Commander. Always," she replied, and her tender kiss was the perfect way to greet a fresh day.


Le Malin was acting as my secretary during the trip back to the port, but she was… less than dependable. I enjoyed a good nap, but all she ever did was nap, and I was suspecting that I was sleeping much more than I should. I would have a coffee when I got back from my daily rounds, where Le Malin would always offer to stay behind and finish up whatever work I didn't get done.

Now, normally I would have believed her, but I recently opened a cupboard in my ship's office and discovered that there were more than a few unfinished files. Now, I do most of my work on the computer now, but there is still plenty of goddamn paperwork to be done.

I always seemed to feel tired much faster around 3 or so, and would normally call it a day never later than 4 because I was just unable to stay awake. Right after I had my coffee. I suppose it took me just a little too long to find out for my pride's sake.

Yet here she was, standing in front of me, unaware that I was watching her pour cold medicine into my coffee along with cream and sugar. She turned, grinning, and screamed when she saw me, dropping the cup on the ground.

She looked on at me with something approaching sheer terror as I regarded her, my expression carefully blank.

"Commander! It's… it's not what you think…" She looked away as I regarded her small form. She had a nice, if petite, bust, but her hips were quite shapely… She was beautiful and had an air of grace about her that did wonders to offset her lazy tendencies.

The ship's office was spacious, the cruiser was by no means a standard model, and I had all the accoutrements of the port aboard.

"Le Malin… how long have you been dosing me with that?" I asked her, and her face went deep red as she stuttered.

"U-umm… I'll get the work done now!" She tried to get past me, but I blocked her. She let out a defeated noise.

"I suppose you'll just have to work overtime to make up for it, won't you?" I grinned, and she shook her head violently.

"N-no! I hate working overtime, I just wanna sleep…" She whined.

"If you can satisfy me, then you won't have to. Is that fair?"

"Hmph… I knew you were gonna ask that eventually… I heard about what you like to do… You're a pervert!" She huffed, pushing her chest out, challenging me.

"Yeah, I am," I picked her up and laid her on the couch. She didn't resist.

"I was hoping… this would go a little differently…" she sighed, "You always work late it seems, and whenever you get done, you just eat and go to bed… I wanted to… go on a date… or something..." Her expression seemed so disappointed that I stopped and sat up.

She sensed something had changed, so she sat up as well, resting her head against my shoulder. I put my arm around her and sighed, "Maybe I am just a pervert… I keep thinking about doing lewd things with you but…"

She giggled, "I know~… Commander, you really spend little time with the Vichya shipgirls… though I did see that you and Tartu have snuck off more than a few times together. I may not have her body but I'd like to do that stuff too, you know!" Her emphatic voice made me chuckle. I suppose it wasn't so bad being such a lewd bastard. "Anyway… I'm not a dummy, I can see the way you look at me, and I keep getting this funny feeling in my chest when I look at you, so…"

She grinned and straddled me before continuing, "I think I may love you after all, and for once… I might even work a little overtime for you. I would like the full treatment, of course~, I am a lady after all."

"Love, huh?" I pretended to not understand, but her pouty face made my laugh softly, "of course I love you too, Malin…" I could feel her breath tickling my lips, her eyes boring into mine as if trying to verify that I was telling the truth.

When her lips met mine, I suppose I had my answer. Soft, petite, lovely… her kiss was tender and slow, and I savored every moment of it. Her small body pressed to mine as I reached behind her, pulling her against me as her arms tightened around my neck.

I could feel the softness of her body beneath her clothes, and I ached to tear them away, to…

She broke the kiss, "I know what you're thinking, Commander…"

"Do you have any objections?" I traced her jawline with my finger.

"You have to bring me to dinner after, though… and we have to take a day off, and…" she began listing her demands.

"I'll even let you sleep in," I reassured her.

"Commander…" she smiled and drew me into a tight hug, her head on my shoulder. I nuzzled her, whispering sweet nothings into her ear. She giggled, her cute voice melting my heart. I don't know what had drawn me to her initially, but I could feel her love, and her trust.

"Y-you should be taking the lead, you know…" She whispered, and I undressed her, letting her top fall to her waist. Her small breasts, now exposed, begged for my attentions. She moaned softly as I kissed her nipple, my tongue caressing it.

I could taste her sweat on it, the labor of her day's work sweet against my tongue. I massaged her breast with my other hand, gently pinching her nipple, rolling it between my fingers as the soft skin of her breast pushed back against my hand.

"Are my breasts really so captivating? They're small but I know you like destroyers so… ahn…" Her soft moans punctuated her speech as she struggled to continue speaking, "I wanna… I wanna be with you, Commander, please… promise me you'll take care of me? Maybe… not work me too hard?"

I broke away from her breasts and looked her in the eyes, "Of course I'll take care of you, and overtime will be voluntary, I promise, ehe," I chuckled as she blew a raspberry at me. I unbuttoned my shirt and pulled it off before pulling me against me and engulfing her mouth with my own, her tongue lashing against mine as her lust grew alongside my own.

I felt her grind against my member through my trousers, and I could feel a faint wetness as her juices dribbled through her tights. She wasn't wearing panties. She really was quite lazy! I didn't care though; I loved it. I lifted her arm and buried my face in her exposed armpit as she giggled. She was ticklish, but I was so taken by her musk that I couldn't resist drawing my tongue along her sweat.

"Commander… that's my sweat… you really like it? Ok then… you can take all you want," Le Malin stretched her arm up to give me easy access, and I took advantage of it, her scent exciting me and making me want her with a passion. My heart was pounding… My excitement was overwhelming!

It seemed with every new shipgirl my love, and lust, grew stronger. She tore open her tights as she fumbled with my zipper, and soon I could feel the heat of her crotch press against my manhood. I pulled my nose from her armpit, but all I could smell was her.

"Malin… you're perfect, you know that? Small and perfect…" I looked down, but her skirt hid her slit from view. She grabbed hold of me as I throbbed, guiding me against her. She rubbed my tip against her labia, her juices coating me.

"Do you like that? Does it feel good? I want you inside of me~," she moaned softly as she guided it into her, stifling a slight cry as I penetrated her for the first time, slowly lowering herself onto me. She took my full length rather quickly, but didn't move after I hit her deepest parts.

"Does it hurt?" I asked her, concerned as she screwed up her face in concentration.

"Ah… n-no… I'm just… a bit tired," she gasped as I gently thrust upwards, and began moving herself, her hands gripping mine as she rode me.

"Well, I hope you can keep going for a while," I teased her. She sighed.

"I… have been made aware of your peculiar stamina, yes…" but she then grinned, "I'll make sure you fill me up properly, again and again. I know you're used to all kinds, but how about we take this slow?"

Le Malin teased me by bringing herself up until just my tip was inside her, and then gently moving only slightly, leaving me twitching madly as I fought to control myself. She would let herself down a little more each time, but then go back to just taking my tip.

However, when she took most of me, her moans changed as her eyes shone.

"You must have found where it feels best," I teased her, reaching around and gripping her ass through her tights, lightly fingering her anus.

"C-Commander! Right here… I'm gonna… I'm gonna cum!" She cried out as she rode me right there, her climax squeezing against me as she squirted all over my cock. I covered a finger in her juices and began to gently push my finger into her ass.

She fell onto my cock and ground against me, her energy apparently exhausted. I helped by thrusting slowly up into her as she leaned against my shoulder, recovering. My finger made its way deeper into her, and her breathing quickened.

"Does it feel good? Do you enjoy having your ass played with?" I asked her, my voice rough with my lust.

"I know… the Commander likes to put his dick in there… but it feels pretty good…" she sighed in contentment as I worked it further in, and soon she could move slowly, this time along the entire length of my manhood. She wanted me to cum, and locked her lips to my own as I pushed another finger inside the first.

Our passionate kiss as I thrust my fingers into her ass was just what I needed to push me over the edge as she took me within her, my pulsing cock engorging as I prepared to unload my seed into Le Malin.

I moaned, pulling my fingers from her ass as I grabbed her hips, forcing her fully onto me as I filled her womb, my cum spilling out from between us as I wave after wave of pleasure crashed through me.

She cried out, and her pussy squeezed me tightly as she came again. I shivered with pleasure as she collapsed against me, and soon I lay her on her stomach, pulling her hips up and revealing her intimate parts. Her slit dripped my cum, but I tore her tights a little more so I could bury my face in her ass.

"It's delicious!" I exclaimed before thrusting my tongue back into her ass, her rectum squeezing it as she panted heavily.

"Commander is eating my ass… does it really taste as good as you say?"

"It smells even better…" I pull my tongue out quickly to say before running it along her entire ass crack before proceeding to lick under her cheeks, gently biting the fat at the bottom, sucking on it before moving back to her anus.

"So… so lewd…" she moaned as I pulled apart her cheeks, ripping her tights further. I suppose I'd need to buy her quite a few just to make sure she'd never run out, because fuck… I didn't think something so inconsequential could turn me on so much. I was throbbing again, and I pulled my tongue out of her ass and got on my knees, pushing my member into her wet hole.

"I'm gonna… put it in your ass, Malin," I told her. She looked back at me and nodded her head slightly as my tip spread her anus. She moaned loudly, trying to grip the leather of the sofa as her rectum squeezed tightly against me.

"It's so tight… oh, it feels so good… your ass is amazing," I truly meant it, despite saying it so often, I meant it every time. It felt just a little different with each shipgirl, but it was always unique enough to make it like experiencing it for the first time all over again.

Her hips wobbled, and I held them up as I pushed deeper. With a shaky breath, she asked, "Does being inside your Vichya destroyer's ass make you happy, Commander?"

"Just being with you makes me happy, Le Malin… this, though… I can't quantify the pleasure this brings me," I said, finding it difficult to speak as I stared at her petite form, her ass swallowing my cock.

Her pussy twitched as she came, her juices flowing freely. I reached down and teased her clit as she came, her juices covering my fingers. I brought them up to my mouth and licked them clean, her taste inundating me with raw lust as I desired even more of her.

"Dirty… that's dirty… Commander…" she protested, but her voice was weak as I began to thrust, sucking the last of her juices from my fingers. I grabbed a handful of her hair and gently encouraged her to get on her hands. She turned her head to me as I continued to pull, but her expression only betrayed her desire.

"I love this feeling…" I said, letting myself slide deep into her with every thrust. My hips began moving on their own, faster and faster, until I felt myself pounding her, the lewd slap of my skin against hers driving me crazy as our moans reached a crescendo. She was pushing back against me, sudden energy filling her.

"Fuck my ass, Commander! Fill me up again~… You're gonna have to do this more often… It feels so good in my ass!" She cried out with pleasure as an ache filled me, my chest constricting as I thrust deep into her, preparing to fill her bowels with my seed.

It rendered her speechless as she felt it pour out deep inside of her, my body rigid as I pulled her hips against me. Her insides quivered as I covered them with my cum, and even though I hadn't finished, she fell forward, her body laying prone as she twitched. My cock erupted again, spraying her ass with my cum.

Small moans escaped her as she felt it hit her. Though, I was still hard, and I got up from the couch, kneeling beside her and thrusting my throbbing member into her mouth. She sucked on it idly, her eyes looking up at me as I used her mouth.

"You're draining me… Oh god… this is too good…" I felt myself spasm as I came too quickly, and she coughed as my cum covered the back of her throat.

This went on for some time, and by the time we were finished, both her holes were pouring my cum out of them, and she could barely move. Hell, I could barely move. Le Malin tried to say something, but her eyes closed and her soft snores quickly followed. Honestly, I was impressed she'd stayed awake throughout it all.

I carried her into the captain's cabin and cleaned her up as best I could in the shower before laying her on the bed before cleaning up myself. I was starving. When I left the bathroom, I saw her awake and naked, opening a box with her name on it. She looked at me, suddenly awake.

"A present, for me?" She opened it up and pulled out a sundress, white and frilly. I was waiting to give it to her, but she pulled it on and approached me, "You still owe me a date…"

"I'll cook," I told her, and got dressed. It wasn't the most glamorous as far as romantic settings go, but I did my best, and she enjoyed her dinner. I promised her we would have a proper date when we got back to the Port, and she appeared satisfied with that. In the meantime…

Well, we slept. This is Le Malin we're talking about here. She even turned off my alarm. I didn't wake up until 1100 the next morning.

Fortunately, it was a…

Tuesday?

Well, what can you do when you have a cute Vichya destroyer snuggling against you? I'll just consider it a holiday!


We were just a few days out from the port. I yawned, stretching as I held my coffee on the bridge. I looked out the window at the fleet slowly starting up all around me, smiling with satisfaction.

I spun around when I heard laughter, and saw Purifier hanging out in a chair, languidly stretched across the arms, her shirt shifted so I could see the bottom of her breasts. She regarded me as I ogled her body.

This Siren was gorgeous, and I'll be damned if I didn't want to fuck her! She saw me looking and lifted her shirt to expose her chest to me, laughing as I tented my pants.

"I'm not gonna pull down my shorts for ya, though… aha, I should have expected nothing less from you of all people. They're like slaves to your desires… Though, I'll admit I wouldn't mind relieving myself on you…"

She pulled down her shirt and stood up, approaching me, "You want to fuck me, or so I heard… ugh, I hate having heard it from that fucking prick, though. All high and mighty with his psychological warfare bullshit!"

"I mean, you're here, so…" I grabbed at her, and she allowed me to pull her against me. She had a scent different from the shipgirls. She smelled… dangerous. Like, she wasn't my enemy, but it didn't mean I should feel safe. I groped her ample bottom, searching out her lips with mine as I explored her body with my other hand, diving into the front of her shorts and stroking her soft slit.

She allowed me to continue for a few minutes before breaking away, using enough force to let me know that any sort of responsibility didn't bind her to protect a Commander.

"You're a horny bastard~," she teased, undoing my pants and getting on her knees. "I'll take care of you like this for today, but now that you've had a taste you'll just keep wanting me, ehe~."

She took me into her mouth, sucking on my cock expertly, her throat squeezing against my cock as she squeezed my balls. I put my hands on her head and forced it deeper into her as she looked up at me with her bright yellow eyes, their glow a tad unnerving.

"Puri… Puri… Oh fuck… your mouth feels so fucking good!" I moaned as she sped up, the lewd sounds of her sucking me off filling my ears. I desperately wanted to smell her, but I was already so close to my climax… her technique was unrivalled, her skill leagues beyond what I'd ever experienced.

I could only moan as I came deep in her throat. She took it all with ease, and when she slowly drew back, my member was completely clean. I panted, looking at her as she flashed me a sultry smile as she took off her shirt.

"Hmm, now that you've had a taste, I'll let you look, just a little, ok?" She turned, giving me a side profile as my cock begged for more. I rushed her, and jammed my nose into her armpit, her sweat and musk covering me in an instant. It was more danger, but in it I could sense an unreasonable excitement! She smelled…

Oh, fuck…

She smelled of juniper berries, and power, and sex… I was in love.

She pushed me back and held me at arm's length, smirking.

"Naughty! What if Suruga walked in on us? So many oaths, Commander… How would it look if you were trying to fuck the very thing you were sworn to fight? Ah, well, it's no matter. You have no clue what's waiting for you, now that they reopened your Instance. Ahh… it's so fun to get to tease you. My scent has driven you wild… but I'm going to take my leave," She put her shirt back on and turned towards the door.

"Puri! Please… please, stay!" I begged her, my body aching for release, but only with her.

"Puri, huh? I like it, very endearing~," she giggled and turned towards me, putting a hand on my head as she spread her legs. "Well…" she pulled down her shorts, exposing her perfect slit, lips parted just so to expose the pink heaven that lay within.

I was on my knees in a flash, and a small, sensual laugh escaped her.

"Please… Puri…" I begged, stroking my member as she brought her pussy to my face. I could smell her musk, and I reached out my tongue to lick it. She let me, and the first sensation of her taste made me moan involuntarily. She pushed forward and allowed my tongue to enter her. I shivered with delight as I ran my tongue along her walls.

"Ahh… you are quite good at this, but you can't fuck me today~, I'll do something for you though, ok?" She began rubbing her clit, moaning softly and pressing her slit against me. I buried my nose in it, and…

Ah…

Fuck…

She smelled… sublime!

It was taking over me, my sinuses were full of nothing but her. Purifier came with a cry of pleasure, and filled my mouth with her juices, which I drank, my thirst unquenchable and my greed for her unending.

She let me keep my tongue in her as she relaxed, and giggled.

"I know what you did in the Sakura Empire, Commander… I've seen what you like, but you've never done this~," she sighed as a stream of warm liquid covered my face, pouring down it and onto my uniform.

I stroked myself harder, my climax nearing as she used me much like I had used Taihou. It trickled into my mouth, but I was so enraptured by her I didn't move, only continued to thrust my tongue into her cunt.

When she was finished, I felt soaked, and she merely grinned as she backed away, turning around and bending over, exposing her ass.

"Puri… I want your ass, so bad…" I pleaded, and she wiggled her hips.

"Nu uh… you have to wait! I'll give it to you, but for now you can have a sniff, and then you can come on my ass, ok? No more, no less~," she wiggled her ass again, and I moved forward, grabbing her hips and shoving my nose against her anus, inhaling deeply as a lustful scent filled me with a desire unlike anything I had ever experienced.

"Puri… Puri…" I moaned as I stood up, loath to leave it but worried she would enact retribution should I be so bold as to lick it. I stroked my shaft as she supported herself, her hands on her knees, bent over and staring back at me as a white hot bolt of pleasure tore through me and out my manhood, covering her ass in my seed as I continued jerking off.

She laughed as I finished, then turned to give me another kiss, "You know, you should have let me go earlier… you'll want it even more now…" she bit my lip softly.

"Puri… I love you…" I said, my member still stiff.

"Ahaha… love… you think you love me, Commander… Yeah.. We will see… we… will see…" She pulled on her shorts and walked out, turning to regard me one last time, a strange, inscrutable expression on her face.

I kept stroking my cock while I still had everything fresh in my mind, my cum splattering against the floor again and again as I inhaled, desperate to retain the memory of her scent. I felt it fading slowly, however, and it drove me mad.

Load after load after load, until I collapsed next to it, unable to move any more despite still standing at full mast. I heard the door open, and Ibuki's face materialized as she smiled.

"Ahh… it seems I can help you… in more ways than one," she said, sitting down on me and taking me into her until I was finished, my exhaustion set in fully as I finally passed out.

The sweet, sweet release of sleep…


Dreams are a funny thing, and Ibuki sighed as she pointed to something. It was… interesting. An amorphous blob was stretching its tendrils into a bright core of fluctuating images, each one depicting a different shipgirl. Suruga and Naganami were massive portions of the sphere, and the Siren energy didn't seem to bother with them, instead exploiting cracks in the rest of the structure.

"Ah, you're here. Did you tell Purifier you loved her? Oh, milord… I won't hold it against you, I know you're an honourable man, and you love us so much and that love was bound to spill over, eventually. You'll never stop desiring her…" She sighed and hugged me.

"I know… I just… Ibuki, please don't tell anyone else, ok?" I asked her. She smiled and nodded.

"No problem, milord… Just please be careful, you were so dehydrated earlier. She must have really turned you on…"

"You know who else turns me on?" I kissed her and brought her to the floor, where she giggled. I made love to Ibuki in my dreams, and when she closed my eyes in it I could find a true rest, a sleep to dissipate the effects of my interaction with Purifier. Though I could still experience her on the fringes of all five of my senses.

When we were approaching the Port, I pulled ahead to lead them, Suruga and Naganami at my sides as I noticed figures standing on the docks. Everyone had come to the Sakura Empire, but I instantly recognized the uniforms of senior naval officers as I observed them through my binoculars.

It filled me with conflicting emotions, and unsure of what to do. Suruga called for all my oathed ships to assemble alongside me, their protective stance comforting as I docked, the rest of the fleet hanging back as they filed into their slips.

The gangway lowered, and my shipfus surrounded me as I left the ship. I looked at the men waiting for us as they observed my protective detail. What the hell was this? I had never received any orders, how the fuck was there even a Command structure?

"DU O-5 0090, please inform your kansen we will not harm you, or remove you from Instance SR-71. I know you'll have a lot of questions. I am SCS O-10 0001," The man in full admiral's uniform saluted me, and I saluted back, unsure of what to think.

"I… I didn't understand any of that, Admiral, but…" I turned to my shipfus, "Stand down, it's ok."

They relaxed, but I could still feel the tension in the air.

"Commander, thank you. I will explain everything shortly. We have been trying to gain access for the past year, to bring you into the network. We have designated you an SR instance as well for your exceptional abilities to form bonds with your shipgirls, and for your special connection to the Siren designated as Purifier," He continued, as though that were supposed to clear everything up.

"Why don't we head to my office?" I offered, and he nodded.

"Excellent idea. Please see that one of your kansen can manage the port for a few hours," he said, and I turned to Wales, who nodded.

"Suruga, Mikasa, Naganami, Nagato, and Ibuki… you're with me," I ordered. They nodded. I turned to Atago, Takao, Kaga, and Akagi, "you'll be in charge of security for the Admiral's detail." They nodded in acceptance, and the Admiral and I walked together as he explained the situation, and I did my best to soak in the information.

When we reached my office, I offered him a seat on the sofa, and I took my usual chair. Naganami prepared coffee and tea, and served it to us before leaving us, the five shipgirls I had brought along standing watch outside.

After sipping his coffee appreciatively, the Admiral looked at me, and sighed.

"This is so much bigger than you can imagine, and you must play an important role in it. Now, please listen carefully."

And listen…

Well, let's just say that I hung on his every word as my world suddenly grew much, much larger than it had been before.

Also, I got my new MSI GS66, and am in love~. Anyway, Naganami kinda charged into my life like so much floof and stole what was left of my heart… you know, what Suruga hadn't already taken!

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it, and I hope you're looking forward to our skk finally joining the larger reality of my Azur Lane fics! Sorry about being such a tease with Purifier, because hnng I really wanted to take it further!

Le Malin sure left an impression! I love that little Vichya destroyer! My spirit animal… I'll nap with her and Furutaka every chance I get! Also, Suruga will never be replaced by anyone, just in case anyone was starting to get worried. She's still at the tippy top of my shipfus. Naganami is damn close, though! But still, my Suruga~…

Anyway, thanks for reading as always, and don't forget about the discord if you want to chat/throw ideas around/experience just how truly lewd a delusional cookie really is! Haha. You'll find the link at r/delusionalcookie on reddit.

As Always, a big thanks to my supporters The Gearinator and Jack! You give me that extra push whenever I lose focus!
