I was hoping you would be willing to give me some training or at least advice so I’ll have a better idea of how to conduct myself as an NCO.” Sarah braced herself for what she expected would be tirade full of incredulity and insults.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Paige nodded and led Tanaka to her rather tiny room that she suspected had been used to store machine parts. "So, you're going to be promoted, huh?" Kerry regarded the doc with a critical eye. "Good. You deserve it! PD can go fuck themselves. By rights you should be a junior LT, but I think Warren knows that would get him shot. You did a damn good job by all accounts, doc."<br/><br/>Paige shrugged. "Not that it's any of my beeswax, but you should probably not go sleeping around with the troops too much as a sergeant. They sometimes find it hard to take orders from a woman anyway, and if they were making you scream in pleasure the night before, they might not take it too seriously when you order them to charge an orc infested hill." She offered a slight smile. "Of course there's that new sergeant just been transferred in. Equal ranks get equal privileges, after all." She shrugged. again. "Or there's me." I wouldn't recommend fucking the LT cos that can get you in bad with the rest of the troops..."<br/><br/>Paig sat on the small cot that the Royal Navy had thoughtfully provided her with and invited Tanaka to do so too. "What else do you want to know?"
