For Fritz:

Promotion Story XXIX: By LC Stuart



Sub-lieutenant Fritz Von Stukart exited the simulator, stood up, and took a bow. Stuart clapped and smiled. “Congratulations on passing basic training, now, lets gather your things and head for the Challenge.”

Fritz beamed as he headed for the shuttle bay.



“So, Stuart, sir, when will I get to fly one of Thunder’s TIE Defenders?”



“Be patient Fritz, we have to get back to the Challenge first. Oh, something I need to tell you,” Stuart fired up the shuttle’s engines, “the commodore just issued a new order that all members must always wear their rank insignia on their right breast while on board.”



Stuart fumbled in his pocket, “Oh, I almost forgot, this is for you.”



He handed Fritz a shiny new lieutenant badge. Fritz smiled as he caressed his new badge and they approached the Challenge.



“Alright, go unpack and then come down to the pool for rec time with your new squad mates.”



“Yes sir,” Fritz beamed and pinned on his new badge, “I’ll be there.”



---



The rest of Thunder was already gone when he reached the barracks. Fumbling into his swimsuit he suddenly remembered his badge, unpinning it from his duty uniform, he looked in dismay at the pin.



He smiled smugly as he attached it to his necklace, grabbed a towel and bolted down to the swimming pool.



When he arrived a few of the Thunderinians waved, he noticed their badges were somehow attached to their right breast.



He was a little perplexed but shrugged and got ready to dive in. Stuart grabbed his shoulder, “Lieutenant, why are you violating the commodore’s orders?”



Stuart also had his rank insignia pinned to his bare chest. Fritz looked a little worried as he said, “Sir, I have it on my necklace.”



“I see that,” Stuart replied, “but why isn’t it pinned where it is supposed to be.”



Fritz stammered “I…I…”



Stuart cut him off, “Fritz! You will follow the commodore’s order immediately!”



Fritz winced, only an hour on the ship and he was already in trouble. Scared for his life, he removed his badge from his necklace and looked at his bare chest, then the badge and then the badge and then his chest again.



“Go on,” Stuart ordered, “or I will throw you in the brig.”



Fritz winced as he brought the sharp point of the pin on his badge to his skin. Just as he pierced his skin, the rest of Thunder burst into laughter. Beef yelled out as the Thunderinians removed their false skin shirts, “Congrats on your promotion kid!”



Tears welled up in Fritz’s eyes as he grabbed his skin to stop the bleeding and ran to sickbay.



For Ryuu:

Promotion Story XLII: By LC Stuart



Fritz smiled as Stuart left the room then turned his face stony and rotated Stuart’s swivel chair to look out of the recently cleared window before calling in lieutenant Ryuu.



“Ryuu! Get in here please.”



Fritz heard a soft pattering of feet and then a bump as Ryuu plunked his lieutenant badge on the desk. He heard a sheepish “Yub yub.”



Fritz swiveled around to face Ryuu but saw nothing. “Ryuu, Ryuu! Where are you?”



“Here, Ryuu down here, sir.” Was the answer he received as he stood up to look.



Ryuu wasn’t quite tall enough to look over the desk.



“Ryuu, I take it Stuart informed you why you are here?”



“Yub yub,” he answered, “Stuie no likey Ryuu wearing big lieutenant shiny.”



“Yes Ryuu,” Fritz said solemnly, “he feels it was inappropriate for you to be wearing it.”



Ryuu’s ears drooped. “But sir, Fritz sir, Ryuu always want to fly TIEs.”



“I know that Ryuu,” Fritz said as tears welled up in his eyes, “but the new rules say that ewoks can’t be lieutenants.”



Ryuu’s ears sagged even further.



“I’m sorry Ryuu,” Fritz said, “but you are going to have to leave.”



Ryuu’s ears dropped even further as he said, “Goodbye Mr.Fritz sir.”



Ryuu turned and left Stuart’s office then headed towards the hanger. When he got there the rest of Thunder was gathered around the crate he had hid in to get onto the Challenge. Ryuu’s ears remained drooped as he entered the crate, his dreams of flying TIEs were dashed; he was going to be shipped home.



The lid on the crate slammed shut and suddenly he heard muffled yelling outside the crate.



“What are you doing you fools?! You weren’t supposed to ACTUALLY send him back! Open the crate now!”



“But sir, we put the lieutenant commander badge in there like we were supposed to so that he can remain with us, besides, it will be funnier this way.”



Ryuu realized what was going on, he searched his crate frantically and found his new lieutenant commander shiny. Caught up in the moment of admiring his new shiny, he didn’t get out of the crate in time and was loaded onto the transport.



For Azurin:

Promotion Story XLIII: By LC Stuart



Azurin sat at her desk, drawing up plans for a new device which would be the deadliest weapon known in the galaxy, a spoon launcher!



Stuart was softly humming the old hit ‘Imperial March’ as he walked up behind Azurin.



“What is it Stuart?” She asked without even looking up from her work.



“Well, I came to tell you my new carrot launching BFG-4002 works wonderfully, I especially like the flashy lights you added and the piiiinnngg sound. I also thought I’d check on your superweapon plans, we’re going to need salvo bursts as well.”



“Yes,” Azurin answered as she jotted down ‘some sort of stupid burst option’, “I’m almost done.”



“Well then,” Stuart said, “I am in need of your artistic abilities.”



Azurin turned around and angrily said, “Can’t you see I’m already busy working on another one of your stupid useless projects?”



Gathering himself he barked, “Lieutenant Azurin, you will report immediately to the sauna with a pencil and paper!”



Before Azurin could protest, Stuart left the room.



Azurin muttered, “Next he’s going to want me to find a way to make homing sporks.” She shuddered.



---



Azurin took her time heading down to the sauna, and when she finally got there the only one around was Shadow, wearing a bathrobe.



“Uhh, Stuart ordered me down here?” she questioned.



“Yes, you see,” Shadow blushed, “I want to send a portrait back to my girlfriend, but I want something more elegant than a photo.”



“Uhhh,” Azurin nodded, “then why the location? I could have drawn you just as easily in the cantina.”



“Umm,” he answered, “I wanted to send a nude portrait.”



“Are you serious?!” Azurin exclaimed.



“Yes, but I’m going to be partially covered.” Shadow stammered.



“Please don’t make this any harder for me then it already is.”



“Alright.” Azurin agreed, thinking the partial covering would mean a towel placed in an almost risqué pose.



Once they got into the sauna Shadow sat on the far side, Azurin busily started preparing her paper. As she looked up, she noticed that Shadow was taking off his robe, and there was no towel.



The ‘partial covering’ was a lieutenant commander badge. Shadow blushed and said, “Stuart said to give this to you after you have finished.”
