It was released on January 7, 2016.

Development and release
Author ErikModi intended this story as a direct sequel to his earlier work, "Frozen Heat", in which Leia Organa makes use of a glory hole on Hoth, and noted that it serves as a spiritual successor to "Lessons at the Academy". He based his characterization of Rey on her fast learning in Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, suggesting that, despite enjoying the idea of her being innocent and naive about sex, she might have had numerous sexual adventures while on Jakku.

The story was released to the Star Wars Erotica Forum on January 7, 2016.

Continuity and references

 * Das Flute's story "The Ways of the Force" contains several references to "Preparations for Departure". The author later included a glory hole scene involving Rey in "Rey for Rent".
