Nicknames
*sigh* My butt is asleep.
The whirring of an office chair spinning in place is loud in the last few hours of the midwatch before the morning crew comes in.
"So, how did you get such an interesting nickname?"
"Um. Well, I was visiting my girlfriend and needed to go down the hall to the bathroom and borrowed her robe and slippers. Someone in her dorm took a picture and she sent to her brother who was in my unit, and he put it on the bulletin board."
"So, what were you wearing?"
"Um. her bathrobe and fluffy pink bunny slippers" confessed an embarrassed Fluff as he thunked his head on his desk.
From the cubical across the way Miguel snorted coffee through his nose and fell out of his chair.
A/N - Yup, a guy on my husband's submarine was nicknamed Fluff, and that was actually how he got his nickname.
