Our Bonds

The blazing sun, the lingering sound of the waves. Summer comes to Maizuru Naval Base again this year. What is the first word you think of when you hear the word summer? Hot? Ice cream? Cicada? Summer festivals? For me, the answer is as clear as the blazing sun. The best clothing to wear this season, swimsuits!

From the classic one-piece to the s.e.xy triangle bikini, the beach is filled with girls in all kinds and styles of swimsuits. On top of that, it's not the one they usually wear. All of them are wearing new swimsuits which I bought for them. Of course, they chose the designs themselves. In addition to the girls frol.i.c.k.i.n.g around the beach, the fairies even set up beach stores to cater to the various needs, such as a Yakisoba store, shaved ice store, and a drinks bar. The DJ team, consisting of fairies, are blasting their music as the girls play and dance under the hot sun. This much is needed if I want to hold a proper beach party.

I let my eyes wander, taking mental pictures of the girls until I felt as though my ear is being pulled off.

"Ow ow ow. Okay. Sorry! I'm sorry!"

Zuihou pulled and twisted my ear. This is my fault.

The girls with me are all wearing their new swimsuits.

Shigure is wearing a purple bikini paired with a lacey sheer top and short white see-through pareo. Her swimsuit gives her a m.a.t.u.r.ed, feminine and elegant aura while maintaining the perfect balance between s.e.xy and cute. What if I take off that purple bikini and just leave the sheer top and pareo on? Ah. That's a great idea. I just found another way to spice up our night life.

Shigure-chan's blue one-piece gives the younger destroyer a rather classic and refreshing look. Unlike the school swimsuit type of one-piece, this one covers only up to her c.h.e.s.t area, showing her cleavage and leaving the shoulders and upper back exposed. The shoulder straps hold the swimsuit to the body, preventing a potential wardrobe malfunction without the need to be tight and ensuring comfort. Frills layered the top of her c.h.e.s.t and t.h.i.g.hs, which are extremely cute. You can never go wrong with frills. Shigure-chan's hair is tied into low twintails which rest on her shoulders.

Zuihou-chan's green triangle bikini and denim shorts is fitting for a playful little demon like her. It makes her look cute and s.e.xy and, at the same time gives off a playful vibe. Her twintails further adds to her playful nature. Her bikini bottom peeks out of her denim shorts, teasing me. That's so greedy! If it weren't for her mental cube changing and causing her body to emit steam, I would be able devour her. She looks so tasty.

Shioi's swimsuit choice was kind of unexpected. I know I told her to explore but I expected her to pick a one-piece swimsuit, since she is conscious about her tan lines. Shioi's swimsuit consists of a pink double frilled halterneck bikini, with cat prints, and a matching frilled bottom. Her one-piece tan is out on full display, which is an unique charm point on its own. Her bottom is smaller than her usual swimsuit, so the tan lines on her t.h.i.g.hs and h.i.p.s are exposed and are very obvious. Truly wonderful. Shioi's hair is being let down instead of being tied into a ponytail.

Zuihou's swimsuit is plain and simple, yet s.e.xy and cute. That red string side tie bikini really brings out the silkiness of her skin. The lack of a cleavage, like her younger sister, makes her look s.e.xier. And that b.u.t.t, not too big, not too small. The perfect size... Another delicious for me.

Oi. Control yourself. There are a lot of girls here so don't embarrass yourself.

"Ah. I expected a reaction like this but still... You could just say we look good or something." (Zuihou)

Zuihou covered up with the white jacket she brought along. She noticed after all. The others might have noticed too but are just keeping mum to avoid embarrassing me.

"I already complimented you all just now. Besides, I can't help it when the women I love are dressed so s.e.xily and cutely in front of me. This is a normal physiological reaction."

The five of them begin to blush, especially Shioi. Good thing I'm wearing trunks, so its only obvious if you look closely. Alright, calm down. No need to stand up so straight.

The fairies blast their tracks as the girls enjoy themselves. From sunbathing to building sand castles to playing beach volleyball to swimming, there is no shortage of activities for them. Some are even dancing near the DJ stand.

"Papa! Over here!" (Yamakaze)

Yamakaze waved to me. She is wearing a blue striped bikini paired with translucent off-shoulder frills. She still wears her favorite straw hat. This one doesn't seem as tight as her usual one, allowing me to see the skin between her modest hills through the frill. No no no. Get your head out of the gutter. Yamakaze sees you as a father so act like one.

Yamakaze ran up to me,

"Papa, how do I look?" (Yamakaze)

The 8th Shiratsuyu destroyer spun around, her skirt dancing along with her.

"You look great, Yamakaze."

"Ehehehe~" (Yamakaze)

I can feel the glares of the five girls behind me.

"What's with that expression?"

Since the beach is crowded, it took us a while to find a good spot to set up. We found a spot that is slightly far from the DJ and food area but still close to where the destroyers and light cruisers are building their sandcastles and playing volleyball.

"Admiral, I know it's late, but is it alright for everyone to be partying like this? What if there is an attack?" (Zuihou)

I stab the large umbrella into the sand,

"Don't worry. I have already taken the necessary precautions. I moved the electric fences further up so that the Abyssal would be just out of firing range. The mines are also moved further up to make space for you girls to swim. Akashi upgraded our radars so now their detection range has increased exponentially. There are automated cannons installed near the fences to shoot at any Abyssal that comes too close. In the worst case scenario of an invasion and attack, Zuihou-chan and Shimakaze will hold them off while everyone gets a gun from the portable armory that's installed all over the place."

I gestured at a silver box that is just over to our left, in the distance. These boxes contain small and medium guns for the girls to use in case the Abyssals break through electric fence and launch a frontal assault. Unlikely to happen, but still a possibility. If necessary, LBAS will be deployed to buy time for the girls to get their equipment and sortie. The cannons installed are motion activated. If an Abyssal gets within it's detection range, it will start to fire. I don't know how effective it is but Yuubari says it can sink a Light Cruiser Ho-class. These turrets are made out of old small guns that were scheduled to be scrapped. I just had Yuubari recycle them into something useful. Hats off to her for creating these within two weeks. Even the portable armory was her idea.

"Now then, whose first?"

I lathered my hands with sunscreens. This is a chance for me touch their bodies in public and I ain't missing it.

"Me!" (Zuihou-chan)

"Ah. No fair!" (Zuihou)

"You snooze, you lose." (Zuihou-chan)

Zuihou-chan laid on her stomach in front of me. I pulled the string holding her bikini top together. I need to cover the entire back. I messaged her back, smearing and making sure every part of her back is being protected against the deadly sun rays. Well, the worst thing that may happen to them is just a bad case of sunburn.

"Hehehe. That tickles." (Zuihou-chan)

"Want me to do your front too?"

"Erm... That will be a bit too embarrassing." (Zuihou-chan)

"Alright. Move it. I'm next." (Zuihou)

Zuihou rolled her sister over to the side. Zuihou-chan's bikini wasn't tied up yet, so her small c.h.e.s.t was almost out on full display. Unfortunately, she pressed against her bikini top to prevent it from falling prey to my eyes. Guh! What a waste!

I rubbed a layer of sunscreen on Zuihou's back. This girl made me lose my chance to see Zuihou-chan without her top on. I mean, I get to see their b.a.r.e bodies almost every night but there is something s.e.xy about having only one part of their bodies covered up with some form of clothing.

I moved my hands for her back to her c.h.e.s.t, as payback.

"Nh! Hey! What do you think you are doing?!" (Zuihou)

My face stings, but it was worth it.
