The Faintest Trace of Sound-CH 2

Rex was at headquarters in Corsucant when he saw a group of clones come in with red and black armor.
The 797 Squad.
Maul Opress squad.
Leading them was ghost, the commander and mauls right hand man. He usually meets up with the to her commanders and they talk about their respective jedis and compare notes with their squads, especially which one has the craziest week.
Behind him was his two second in commands, Biff and Tal.
Biff is the group medic and he has the same look all the medics had, exhaustion. There were times he heard him scolding his squad mates, which also included Maul. The funnies tone he heard was saying he was going to kill them all before the clankers do and he can get away with it.
Ok, that was probably not funny.
Tal is the groups weapon specialist and in Rex’s opinion, a bit edgy. He usually said cynical quip and dark jokes, sometimes bringing down the morale of his squad. But Rex thinks that just how he copes with their situation.
Behind them were 3 shinies, but they haven’t been shinies in a while.
First was Sparks, but his name was almost crybaby. Sparks was always fixing mouse droids and their battle ships. But he was also overly emotional, especially with small animals and the romantic novels he says he doesn’t have but everyone knows he does.
Then there’s Feral, whose dyed white hair is not regulation but he does not care. His name fits his persona, for he is the one that goes headfirst into battle, to Biffs chagrin. He is covered in scars but wore them proudly. Rex has seen him walking around the theater district sometimes in Corsucant, looking at the theaters with a forlorn look.
Finally, there was Sky, with their stars and crescent tattoos on their face.
Sky kept to themselves and is pretty closed off, But Rex can understand that.
Sky is trans.
It was an open secret, how Sky felt more like she was born in the wrong body, how she dealt with her internal turmoil because of her feelings. She was wary of people’s reaction, but Ghost told her that there was nothing wrong with her, and just because she identified as female, it didn’t mean she wasn’t vod.
The clones always protect their own.
Rex watched as they all sat down, talking animatedly.
Wait, if they were waiting here, then that means…
“Hello, dearies.”
“BUIR!”
Ah, Onora must be visiting.
Meeting Mauls wife was a surprise since Rex, like many of the clones, thought jedi couldn’t get married. But Maul always beat to his own drum, so this honestly shouldn’t surprise them.
What did was how pretty she is and she was taller than Maul.
She was also kind, watching over Maul’s squad like they were her own. Hell, they literally called them buir just for that. She also noticed how exhausted they were, taking it upon herself to cook them meals.
Just now, she came in carrying a five tier lunchbox. The squad ran up to meet her and to see what she brought them.
Some days, it could be meaty sandwiches with lettuce. Other days it could be a hot stew she made. This time, Rex could see she made them individual lunchboxes with their own preferences.
He can’t help but feel a bit of envy. There were many times a home cooked meal can lift the morale of a soldier.
And he knows her cooking is great, from whenever the squad shares, which isn’t a lot.
Rex watched Jesse walks up to the group with a nervous smile.
“Um, Mrs.Onora, me and my vod were wondering if-”
“No!”
Rex watched the 797 squad crows around Onora, glaring at Jesse like he’s an interloper. He almost expected them to start hissing at Jesse.
“She ours!” Sparks yelled, while Onora herself looked exasperated.
Rex chuckled with a shake of his head, lucky vod.
AN: Finally showing the Mauls squad and they just have that crackhead energy that just vibes with him. Onora is their mom, nuff said. Everyone wants her cooking.
