Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......

the moment they became besties 🥰

my favorite genre is clones meeting jedi for the first time and dealing with weird force shit. the whole concept of space wizards/monks being military leaders is so funny when u think about it.

just imagine you're a soldier since birth. you're trained to be logical and strategic. then your commanding officer struts in with no armor like "okay we're doing this battle battle plan cuz it came to me in a dream last night!" or "be alert. i'm getting bad vibes." and u can't say anything bc it's ur commanding officer but ur internal monologue is just 'what the fuck what the fuck what the-'

When I tell you I BINGED this book on Wattpad, I cannot stress when I say binged. It’s beautifully written, the oc’s are fantastic and everything about it brings me so much joy. I cannot wait to see where the author takes it from here. It’s truly a masterpiece.

Darth Maul's fate was all but set the moment Darth Sidious stole the child away from Dathomir. He was indoctrinated into hate, and misery and death. Taught to dwell on his rage, sink into his pain and by the time he was free of the abusive hand of his master, it was too late. He only knew anger and hurt. He only knew how to harm.

But what if he didn't?

What if, by a twist of fate, that there was a lifeline for him to reach onto? Something that could pull him from the dark and away from the path that lead to the desert under the twin suns? If, in the beginning, there was another, that connected to his hearts... could he be saved from his fate?

“I hope you remembered your promise.” she spoke softly. The figure turned, and suddenly she was in a room, looking out at a city sunset through a wide window. She could make out familiar red and black markings on the face only barely visible under the hood.

“I swore revenge.” He spoke, his voice smoother and deeper than she had last heard it.

“As did I. I swore I would always be by your side, and I intend to keep my word.” She reached into her robes and held out her half of the sparkling golden amulet. She could feel his eyes on it.

“I… I know this symbol.” He murmured, confused. Did he really not remember?

“You and I made a promise, and I swore I would find you. I will not forget this oath. I am coming. I will bring you home.”

“Home?” He looked up now, but his eyes… were different. Golden, not grey.

“Do you not remember?” Zaiya gasped softly. “Your home and family. You are a Prince of Dathomir, stolen by a monster.”

“My master has trained me in the Dark Side of the force. I am more powerful than any other being, I will take revenge on behalf of all Sith.” his voice came out in a vicious hiss, rage building up in him, so much that she could feel it coming off in waves.

“You… a sith?” she growled. “He has assaulted your mind, you are more than any servant or apprentice. We swore that we would get stronger, that no one else would command us again. Your ‘Master’ is a thief and a liar.”

In a second, a glowing red blade was held up to her neck. The look on his face was pure rage. “You know I speak the truth.” She added, looking down between the blade and his eyes. “You know me, Maul. You must remember.” The zabrak froze, his gold and red eyes widened as he gazed at her, looking at her face. There was a flash of recognition, but Zaiya felt the air around her shifting and the visions fading. She took the moment to connect to him one last time. With the blade withdrawn, she drew in, a hand gingerly to the back of his head and her forehead on his. Her other hand was holding up the broken amulet. “Remember. I will come for you, I will never give in. Keep fighting, remember your oath.”

REQUESTS OPEN for APOD - PROMPTS

I keep thinking about how there is a delicate balance of the emotional behaviors of the Batch and you can see it best in what a lot of people complained was a filler episode, that being The Crossing, and to an extent also Aftermath.

In Aftermath we have the infamous food fight scene, which is preceded by Tech and Wrecker's continuing argument about programmed behavior. This will not be the first time Tech and Wrecker argue if they're left to freely interact; it comes up numerous times in the series, and (IMO anyways) stems from the fact that Wrecker is outwardly emotional and Tech is almost 100% inwardly emotional. Tech doesn't process externally like Wrecker does, and has a certain amount of trouble communicating with Wrecker, and Wrecker with him, as a result. So who steps in most of the time?

Crosshair and Echo, and by The Crossing, both of them are gone.

Crosshair is the one who tries to diffuse their argument in the mess hall, placating Wrecker while giving Tech a blatant look of 'stop antagonizing him and eat goddamnit'. He also serves as an added focus for Wrecker's Wreckerness, which means he's less likely to collide with Tech and have an argument ensue. We can see Wrecker variously joshing with the two of them in the TCW episodes and in Aftermath.

Once Cross is missing from the group, it's Echo who acts as the buffer, standing firm against Tech's chaotic nature and Wrecker's emotional reactions. Hunter wrangles them, but Echo actually manages them. It's a very different approach and we see first hand how necessary it was the second Echo is gone. Wrecker and Tech are bickering nonstop and Hunter barely has a handle on them. For the most part he seems prepared to let them sort it out, and I don't know he can be blamed for that.

This is almost the entire point of The Crossing as an episode: to demonstrate how important the group was as a complete team. Not in the sense of 'omg everyone brings one important thing/skill to the table' way but in an emotional, supportive way. Echo was the co-lead Hunter probably needed the entire time, gelled with him perfectly in that roll and tempered Hunter's hesitation with decisiveness while keeping the other three from setting the Galaxy on fire. Cross, Tech, and Wrecker formed a sort of balanced triangle between themselves which kept things at an even keel. With Cross gone, Echo fell into this role, somewhat naturally. This is all on display in The Crossing when we finally see what happens when that triangle is broken and Tech and Wrecker have to directly interact on a consistent basis. It gets messy.

And yet people complain about it being 'filler' and not advancing the plot.

I think Soup Clone might be my [old] new favorite meme.
