The thing about me getting into ships and reading about them is realising just how prevalent the Clyde shipyards were. Like some really famous ships came from Glasgow... and what's left to show for that entire industry that the city really relied on? The empty spaces that were once docks and a single giant crane that's left behind.

Like I remember growing up and hearing my grandparents complaining about how the shipyards were all shut down and everyone was out of work, but this is really kinda hitting it home.

#like i always pass the crane when passing the city on the motorway and it looks lonely #when in doubt blame thatcher #shipyard #ocean liner #me #ships

the world is full of light and love and skyscrapers tall enough to vanish into the distant mists of a humid night are landlocked whales hollowed out by human hands

A crane and a drydock

It's always lovely to flee from a big urban centre to a bit smaller urban centre but on the seaside. Here's a drydock and a crane in a Viktor Lenac shipyard, in Rijeka. June 2023.

Moon and starry night in Gdansk Harbour

A photo of building and crane by night is an nice view to the historic importance of Gdansk and its harbour.

In 999CE the first historic referrence of a harbour and a trading post at the mouth of river Vistula is mentioned. This was the start of historic Gdansk, and it has played a role in several historic occations.

Membership in the hanseatic league 1361CE put the city on a fast track to growth, wealth and influence. And in under a century the city got special royal privilieges as a royal city by the polish king in 1457CE.

During the napoleon wars in early 1800s this great European tribe war made the city changed rulers and allegiance several times. It ended up being a preussian and later german city until 1919.

Gdansk become the "polish Danzig-corridor" dividing the former German empire in two after the loss in WWI. As most else provisions in the tragic peace treaty of Versailles, it set the stage for the next big war.

And in 1939 the Europe Theater of World War II started with a naval attack on Gdansk from der Kriegsmarine of Na*i-Germany.

In 1980 the trade labor Union Solidarity, was founded at Lenin Warf in Gdansk Harbour. That started out being the symbol of resistance against communism and the Soviet Union not only in Poland, but in most of Eastern Europa. They succeded in 1989 with the fall of Berlin Wall and the disintegration of the East Block and the end of the Cold War.

Today the Gdansk Harbour is a modern harbour combining trade, history and modern life like a modern coastal city of this world.

Fun facts and tidbits from Deep Cut’s stage dialogue:

While Shiver and Frye have favorite weapon classes they swear by (stringers for Shiver and splatanas for Frye), Big Man is the kind of guy who uses different weapons for different stages. Some of the weapons he uses are brushes (at Inkblot Art Academy), blasters (at Humpback Pump Track) and sloshers (at Eeltail Alley).

Frye likes coming up with attack names for Specials used in highly specific ways and charging in with a war cry in turf battles. She is not stealthy.

Deep Cut sells their treasure from the Crater at a high price to a guy running a shady stall in Hagglefish Market.

Shiver’s need for speed is not limited to riding Master Mega into battle. She has openly contemplated taking the cars at Mincemeat Metalworks and the Manta Maria itself for joyrides, and her parents were worried about her riding a bicycle because she’s a danger and a menace to everybody and WILL run you over.

Some stage dialogue basically confirms Deep Cut are housemates (oh my god they were roommates) - the three of them even go shopping for groceries at MakoMart together (Shiver recommends buying in bulk on Tuesdays for great savings!). Frye keeps trying to sneak unapproved snacks into their cart, but Shiver and Big Man are on to her shenanigans.

Big Man has been teaching the girls how to cook ever since they started living together! In Japanese, Shiver straight up admits to struggling with cooking when she moved out of her parents’ house since she’s never really had to cook before, and Frye says before Big Man taught them the basics she mostly ate junk she got from the supermarket. Either way, Big Man points out Frye has a bad habit of putting a ton of sugar into EVERYTHING. She’s... she’s working on it.

None of the Deep Cut trio have ever lived in a housing complex with apartments like Flounder Heights. Frye is very open to the idea, but Shiver isn’t since she thinks she wouldn’t get along well with neighbors.

Deep Cut’s go-to venue for birthday parties is Big Man’s house. It is unclear if it’s because it’s the biggest and nicest of the clan houses, or if it’s because Big Man (and his family by proxy) are the most easygoing and willing to hold parties there.

Both Big Man and Frye have a past with Undertow Spillway - Big Man got lost there once as a child while chasing butterflies, while a young Frye used to skip dance lessons and take her little brother with her to explore and look for treasure.

Frye used to skip school a LOT.

Deep Cut has filmed music videos at Mincemeat Metalworks and Hammerhead Bridge, but the latter was never released because Big Man was knocked over by a strong wind.

Some time ago, Deep Cut were extras for a movie filmed at Scorch Gorge. They were only in the film for two seconds.

Deep Cut are completely weirded out by the NILS Statue, are further weirded out by the fact no one really talks about anymore, and think it’s stupid that there are still tour boats sailing right by the statue. See, they CAN be sensible every once in a while.

Big Man likes to imagine the big cranes at Sturgeon Shipyard combining into a giant robot. Big Man is a nerd.

One of the Mahi-Mahi Resort dialogues has Shiver complaining about how hot it is at the poolside. In English, Big Man suggests taking a dip in the pool, and immediately realizes his friendly advice could be misconstrued because what works for him does NOT work for an inkfish. Compare and contrast Marie telling Callie to take a dip in said pool back in the first game’s NOA translation... they’ve definitely gotten better about this, Big Man really just comes off as a well-meaning goofball here. Meanwhile, in Japanese, Shiver’s complaint brings him to a realization: “so THAT’S why you keep standing in my shadow when we’re here...”

Frye is the kind of person who goes into turf battle with a weapon in one hand and a snack in the other (the only person, Shiver insists). This has made her the target for seagulls enough times that she has issued a public service warning about the little snack thieves.

Once, Frye used Zipcaster to enter one of the high cages at Scorch Gorge... and could not figure out how to get out. There were tears. She insists she didn’t cry and does not want to talk about it.

“As soon as you get off the flagship, I’m going to do the thing you told me not to and you can’t stop me.”

-🪿

This prompt screams Leman Russ, so don't mind me. There is a critical lack of this stupid wolf man on this website. Enjoy!

---

summary: you leave your 10 foot tall himbo boyfriend alone for a few hours. let's see what happens!

word count: 1031

content warnings: general 40kness, slight "things happening to animals"ness

---

“As soon as you get off the flagship, I’m going to do the thing you told me not to and you can’t stop me.” Leman's voice was full yet playful. His eyes were aglow with a mischievous light, reflections of the dual suns of this system dancing on them. His toothy smile lit up his hairy face, accentuated by protruding, wolflike fangs, and some of his blonde hair was done up in loose braids.

"The thing I told you not to?" you replied incredulously. As you struggled to keep up with his gait, you hurriedly adjusted your skirts, cascading over each other like the waterfalls of the planet you were to land on. "Do you have any idea how slightly that narrows it down?"

"Nope!" he grinned. His airy demeanor contrasted your hurried behavior, as you broke into a small jog to keep up with him.

You craned your neck to look up at him. "Can you at least slow down?" you asked as you hiked your skirts. The dainty, black leather shoes you were wearing weren't the most conducive to running across a flagship, after all.

Leman barely stopped to pick you up and put you under his arm. The leather and the armor brushed against your skin, cold like the planet Leman hailed from. You tried to smooth your skirts back, but it was too awkward to reach around him and fix them.

"Leman!" you gasped. "I just wanted you to slow down a little bit!"

Leman stopped in his tracks. "Oh..." he said, putting you on the ground. He was far more gentle with you now, your feet hit the ground as if you had floated down from his arms. He stood still for a second, looking into your eyes. He reached a hand out to your face, gently brushing it. He chuckled. "Well, at any rate, I'm still going to do the thing."

"What thing?!?" you asked again.

"You'll know when you get back," Leman replied. That devious grin still crossed his face.

A voice interrupted the two of you, a loud rasp. "The Wolf Mother is needed on the ground," a Space Wolf said.

You and Leman looked at each other, and Leman dropped to his knees. He took your hand in his and kissed it. You felt his whiskers brush against it, coarse and rough. You quirked an eyebrow at him.

"I will be back," you said as he let go of your hand.

"I will do the thing," he replied, and got up. He may have been of average size among his brothers, but he towered over his sons. You weren't even up to half of his height. He put a hand to your shoulder. It was heavy, and its grip was strong and hard. He gave you a little shake before he turned away, his heavy footsteps growing slightly quieter as he walked away. You put a hand to your chest as Leman's sons--your sons?--escorted you down towards the shipyard.

---

You wasted no time once you got back on the ship. You once again hiked up your skirts, your thin leather shoes rhythmically plopping against the floor. You got quite a few stares from the ship's passengers, no matter how high of a life they led. The Legion Mother was often the voice of reason for Leman, but she was not always this... frazzled.

You saw a crowd gathering in a large atrium around a large man. A man that was too large to be a space marine. This was the man that had taken you as his lover, Leman Russ himself.

"What are you doing?!?" you shouted over the clamor of the crowd. Your voice was lost in the noise of the crowd. As you stood still, people walked past you, brushing against your shoulder before a sorry was muttered. You grit your teeth. You were going to have to elbow your way through the crowd.

And elbow your way you did. "Oh! So sorry!" you exclaimed, accidentally jutting your way into a guardsman. You could barely see over the crowd, most of which were taller than you. "Excuse me!" you said again, as someone stepped on your toe. You winced. Hopefully your shoes were going to be okay.

After what seemed like forever, you got to the front of the crowd. They were circled around two geese, butter knives in their mouths. And Leman was looming above them, giving directions to some space marines holding slimy green strands in their hands.

"Alright, so Lukas, when he hits the other goose, give him the seaweed," Leman instructed before his eyes turned to you. He exclaimed your name as if he hadn't seen you in years. "You're just in time to watch me train these geese to swordfight!"

"You actually trained them to hold butter knives," you said, dumbfounded. Your mouth was slightly agape as the other space marine made a maneuver with his seaweed. The goose followed, and received its reward.

"This is just the beginning!" Leman exclaimed. "Soon they're going to be able to swordfight!"

"I forgot I told you not to do this," you laughed. You tiptoed around the side of the little "arena" Leman had built out of bushels of wheat. "How long was I on that planet? 3 days, maybe?" you asked, counting the time on your fingers before remembering that these were not the days of Terra that you had grown up with. "I'm not even mad. I'm just impressed you did it this fast."

Leman put his arm around you, bringing him against his large and sturdy form. Your face went warm as you realized how many people were around you.

Leman knelt down. "They're more focused on the geese," he whispered in your ear. You relaxed. He was probably right. You put yourself in the crowd's shoes for a second. Would you be focused on the trainers or the geese? The trainers didn't have butter knives in their mouths.

You felt the hairs on the back of your neck stand up as Leman all but mashed his face into the side of yours. "So how's telling me not to do things going?" he whispered.

January 14, 2024 Update from the Battleship Texas Foundation

"DRY DOCK TOURS

Tours are now full through the entire month of January. We look forward to welcoming five hundred of you into the shipyard to see the amazing progress made to Battleship Texas!

A Dry Dock Tour participant approaches the bow of Battleship Texas.

A dry Dock Tour wanders underneath Battleship Texas.

STEEL REPAIR - Steel repairs have been completed on the hull of Battleship Texas. The entire hull has been coated.

This area housed one of the 5”/51 cal. Guns. The deck has been blasted, coated, and awaits a layer of wood. The surrounding area and overhead has been blasted and painted white/navy blue 5-N. The guns are currently being restored and will be placed aboard next month.

Openings where the ships 5”/51 cal. Guns were. They are being restored and will be placed back next month.

HULL - The ship’s hull has been coated in PPG SIGMASHIELD 880 GF to protect the steel from potential corrosion. While the hull is supposed to be red below the black band at the waterline, the Battleship Texas Foundation has chosen to not spend the extra funds on a cosmetic choice that will not be seen once the ship is back in the water. The coatings that have been applied are plentiful and should protect the ship for many years to come.

Looking under Battleship Texas.

Steel repairs in this area are complete. The hull is now fully coated!

Underneath Battleship Texas.

NAVY BLUE 5-N - Above the boot top (above the black band) the ship has been painted Navy Blue 5-N. This color was matched from existing examples found aboard (both internally and externally) the vessel. The ship was painted in this camouflage scheme (Measure 21) prior to deploying to the Pacific Theater in World War II. At this time Battleship Texas is the ONLY museum ship painted in this scheme and only one of two Battleships in their wartime measure.

Torpedo Blisters: Complete Hull: Coated Navy Blue 5-N: Applied

Starboard side of Battleship Texas.

A crane sits beside Battleship Texas.

The bow of Battleship Texas.

HULL NUMBERS - The new hull numbers have been extensively researched so each number is not only the correct font, but applied in the appropriate position it was in 1945. The numbers have been applied to both bow and stern.

The ship’s name and hull number look great!

Steel repairs in this area are complete. The hull is now fully coated!

Sitting underneath the rudder and looking forward.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

KEEL BLOCKS - Yes, the keel blocks supporting Battleship Texas can be moved. Each block is moved so the area atop of them can be blasted, repaired (if need be), and coated.

SPLASH! - The ship will be put back into the water in February 2024, but is dependent on the weather.

WHAT’S NEXT? - Battleship Texas will remain at Gulf Copper Shipyard for the time being. Additional steel work, removal and replacement of the ship’s deck, and superstructure/aft fire control restoration will continue.

Dock hands venture into the ship’s crew wash room.

The ship’s cafeteria!

Take a look into Steering Gear!

That’s not straight!

Live, Laugh, And Flood your Torpedo Blisters.
