Chapter Five Part Eleven | Usefulness Of A ENNB

　Chapter 5 Part 11 | Usefulness Of A ENNB

　'An ENNB Construct? No surprises there...' Indeed, there is no surprise. Shigure has met plenty of androids, so just a glimpse of Kaga gave her away. "An ENNB Construct? I haven't seen one at your rank before."

　"Heh hehhh~! There's of course a reason for that, Commander. But let's digress, hm? Wait there~♪!" Kaga winks towards the Commodore, quickly moving out into the hall beside the threshold. Shortly returning with a box she'd placed in wait. "Here, Shigure. Takeee~!"

　"Thank you?" He holds out his hands, of which Kaga places the box into.

　It's heavy, so much so he's taken aback she displayed no issue flinging it around. Though, not heavy enough to warrant him tipping over. Upon placing it on his desk, Shigure opens it. A familiar white of papers, and also the familiar white of... a uniform?

　"Oh? You got my operator uniform? Thank you." He sets the papers aside, not waiting, and scoops the white fabrics from within the box, carrying them to his bed. Without any regard for Kaga's presence, he begins to change.

　"Oh Commodore... Changing in front of a lady you just met~? How bold...~♪" She teases him for no other reason than it's funny.

　Shigure only scoffs, focused on changing into his correct uniform. "Can it. You're an android."

　'So cold!' Kaga gasps.

　Finalizing some things with his pants, he begins to don the officer's jacket. "Those paper. Why were they included?"

　She had approached his desk, seemingly organizing said documents. "These? Oh well, they are your squadron's profiles."

　"I've been needing those. How'd you know?"

　With a few finishing touches, he's happily back in an operator's uniform. But condition one is no time to fawn over the past. He walks to his desk beside Kaga, awaiting her response, while at the same time proceeding to review what she had provided.

　The ENNB Construct strikes a pose only describable as one of victory. "Ahah~! Well Shigure, it's part of my processing unit to make 'Amazing' predictions~. You'd surely know just how 'Brilliant' us ENNBs are, Riiight~♪?"

　Only a disapproving stare.

　"Eh-? Not funny...?"

　"It has it's charm." Tirelessly seating himself back in his desk's chair, Shigure resumes his tedious work of gathering information. Now with the documents Kaga had provided to assist. "If that's all. Feel free to return to your ship, Admiral. In fact, it is condition one. So you should be there regardless."

　Instead, Kaga occupies herself with sifting through Akasha squad's profiles. "Heh~ Jormugandr has a competent crew. Plusss~ my predictions strongly indicate you and I will be doing a whole lot of that 'working together' jazz in the near future.~♪"

　"Great." Shigure responds humourlessly. "If you insist on helping. Do so in a 'helpful' manner. Admiral."

　"Roger that Commander!"

　Chuckling and having settled down, Kaga begins to help out, in that 'helpful' manner Shigure had requested. With an ENNB Construct at hand, note taking and other gathering of information is significantly easier. With the option to simply ask Kaga about records and get a response, instead of digging through terribly kept military records.

　After a productive quarter of an hour, Shigure pops his head up. "Kaga. When will my squadron will be deployed?" He'd rested his hands, looking at her expectantly.

　"I'm not that type of ENNB, Commodore~. I'm a Commander type, not Strategical. Buttt~♪" She smirks, leaning towards him. "It may not be accurate... but, I'd predict in around 2 days~."
