Morgane's note: Because I (with a lot of help) translated my writings into Chinese to fit the textbox, the version below is the "full" version of her library intro, and as such, will be slightly different from what you see here in the Chinese text.

*giggles* Commander! DD-373, Shaw, preparations complete! Would you like a band-aid before we head out?
Commander, you've probably met my sister. We Mahans were pretty common in the other world's war, and if I had to guess, you've probably seen what we can do. Okay, so maybe we aren't as new or shiny like the other girls, but we still pack a hefty punch! We're definitely not losing to any other destroyer girls, that's for sure!
Aw, no worries no worries, commander! I'm not going to explode again (I hope). What happened on December 7th was just meant to be. In any case, I wasn't hurt too bad, see? Didn't even leave a scar! Besides, to make it out of that big of an explosion, I'm just thankful that the good Lord decided I can stay! Actually, I got better like really, really fast, and returned to service right away. Now, as you know, my historical record was pretty boring after that. I guess no news is good news, right?
Well, what's that supposed to mean, commander? I-I guess if you want a real story about what happened... Okay, that's fair. You weren't there, after all. How about all those times where I rescued all those sailors? Yeah, you know, the funny looking rubber boats. I think what was really, really easy for me to remember was how happy they looked when they saw us approach. You ever been in a courtroom before, commander? You know the "thank you good Lord!" look on the guy when the judge decides he's innocent? These boys looked just like that, except I know for a fact that none of them did anything bad enough to drown!
Haha, did I ask them? No no no, commander. Why would I do that? It wouldn't be half as good of a story if I got thanked for doing the right thing! I hope they never figure out who saved them - maybe they'll tell their kids: an angel did it!
STEC notes that the historical Shaw gained a total of ten battle stars within the Pacific theater. Like others of her class, her duties included night illumination, close quarters fire support, shore bombardment, escort duty, and other support operations. Shaw, in particular, was known in the navy for rescuing fallen sailors and pilots, and STEC is pleased to observe that the particular trait seemed to have carried over to the young woman today.
An idealist who enjoys taking care of others, Shaw is a demure and cheerful girl. She is frequently seen toting a home-made "medkit" comprised of little more than assortments of mundane household items. STEC would like to remind the commanding officer that the number of small avian creatures (and on rarer occasions, mortally-wounded [edited]sapiens) she's managed to nurse back to perfect health using little more than chicken soup, play-doh, and glitter should be kept secret until NRO replicate her successes.
