Your imaginary friend wrote:x) Did you know that yellow doesn't actually exist objectively? I heard recently that it's just a blur of other colors that one's brain interprets as "yellow", and apparently the way that happens is different for everyone. News to me since I thought it depended on wavelength... but maybe that wavelength just doesn't happen much and it's a mixture we usually see? I dunno, I should do more research on the subject before talking about it. :P

But white and red are fine colors I suppose so indeed; a very nice flag!

Aren't all colours created by the mind to better visualize the world we're in? I believe it's related to the frequencies of light and then our brain will interpret it as a colour.

Zubeknakov face palmed and looked over to his XO, "Can you get me a translator?" The XO walked off to try and find a translator for what ever language this was. Zubeknakov returned his attention to the hologram,
"Look, this fleet is not for you, they are just an escort since we were headed to about the same place. It would be nice if you could tell me in English what the [Redacted] happened to Purgadellhi, and if we could get his corpse."

Cossack Peoples wrote:Cossack Strait, 13:52
The condition of the Timofeyevich, to put it in the words of the wise many before Alexei, was a fustercluck.

Within the first hour of sailing, there was a fistfight in the commissary, complete failure of electronic systems, and an unfortunate accident involving someone’s fingers when a deck gun was attempted to be forcefully brought back into service.

Although the run-down ship moored at the dockyards did not appeal to Kutznetzov immediately, he assumed that it was a hardy ship under the rusted surface and had some advantages that he could not foresee. However, never had his senses been so terribly wrong, as nearly every kilometer the ship traveled a new technical issue arose.
To address these issues, Counter-Admiral Kutznetzov usually relied on the captain, a dirty-faced man who looked as if they were watching their career go down the drain; nevertheless, the issues persisted and Alexei looked for a new flagship.

“What do you mean, you’re leaving the Timofeyevich?” The scruffy captain had inquired.

“I mean that this ship is hardly capable of sailing, never mind serve as a flagship. I’ve decided to move to the Miś, since they seem to be faring better than this tin can.” Alexei saluted the old captain as a motor boat with two others was lowered from the side of the deck. He could get used to being an Admiral, because then he could opt not to put up with an officer’s mess of a command.

On the Miś, supposedly the most advanced surface warship in the Cossack Navy, was a fairly spacious command deck with remarkable cleanliness and streamlined appearance to the design. According to the shipwrights in Korf, if the design fared well they would authorize a hundred of the design before moving onto another line.

As soon as Kutznetzov arrived to his new flagship, nothing but a frigate, panic seemed to ensue.
The Hun reports a large score of unidentified naval vessels off their starboard.
The Timofeyevich is not reporting the Admiral onboard, no orders have been issued.
Ensigns and Lieutenants began to fly from station to station, monitor to monitor, attempting to identify the ships they saw and inquire about orders from any person of a higher rank than they were.

Enter Alexei Kutznetzov, seemingly a rock against the turbulent sea of uniformed men and women. Unable to assess the madness, Alexei stepped away from the door of the command center and drifted towards a nearby officer, a lieutenant, by the look of it.

“Where can I find the captain of this vessel?” Alexei asked, stepping away to let an ensign through where he had stood. The lieutenant gave him a dazed, unfocused look before responding,

“He’s somewhere over there, I think.”

So, Kutznetzov sauntered towards the location, forced to stop and start because of sailors darting back and forth in his path. At last, he arrived at what seemed to be the captain, who was hunched over a railing shouting orders loudly in a heavily Korf-styled accent. Seeing the Admiral approach out of the corner of his eye, the Captain exclaimed,

“I told you to stay on comms, Seaman!”
“Captain, I’m Counter-Admiral Kutznetzov, I’d like to be put on the frequency.” The captain jerked their head towards Kutznetzov as if they’d been insulted, and then did a double take upon noticing the decorations on Alexei’s uniform. Snapping to attention, the captain did a tight salute and shouted equally as loudly,
“Sir!”
“At ease, Captain. I’d like to take command of the ship, and first, let me in on what’s going on. Then give me a speaker, Ради бля.”
*********
“Were we expecting them?” Asked Kutznetzov, in a call to the mainland after reestablishing control over the fleet.
“Yes, the Dernellians were sending a task group for a military exercise. Nothing to worry about, they’re friends.”

Are you going to write about an extraordinary voyage to an island called Tsushima? Does anyone smell torpedo boats?

I tried to make fried pineapple tonight (random inspiration) but I stirred it too much when cooking and the stuff that was supposed to coat the outside of the pineapple pieces all got smushed together into big lugubrious blobs entirely independent of the pineapple. ;-; Not that it wasn't okay tasting but... I need to try that again sometime!

If you are ever interested you could also try pineapple, with ritz cracker crumbles, and shredded cheese on top.

Part of the reason I'd like to make it is cuz I loooove pineapple, but when it's fresh it messes with my tongue and makes it feel all raw and bumpy... not sure if it's an allergy exactly but definitely unpleasant! Cooked that's totally gone though, so need to figure out a way to do so sustainably (that maybe even makes it better so my family doesn't think im a fruit monster).

Ooh thanks for the suggestion. :o That sounds almost like easy-peasy pineapple pizza!

Fun fact: That weird feeling pineapple creates on your tongue is actually the pineapple eating you while your eating it! The juices from the pineapple are able to breakdown and digest proteins in a way similar to stomach acid, the feeling it creates is part of your mouth being dissolved.
