Reasons for recommending:
I really don't know how to explain this story without giving it away. This is a different look at the Jedi experience of puberty. It's a clever idea, told with a wonderful wit. It could certainly use more sex, but I'm always left with many happy ideas floating around in my head. It's a nice short one that will leave you grinning.
The story uses a device that I absolutely loathe, and carries it off far better than I've ever seen elsewhere.
Quote from story:
They would share a room, and they would share a bed, and he would be unable to
hide his physical responses. He had no doubts whatsoever that his body would
betray him. The last time they had been to Hoth he had been too young to
realise that two men stripping naked and spending a long night wrapped around
each other could in any way be interpreted as an intensely sexual experience.
So he was a moron.
