#bahryn

[may-be-a-plant]

Thinking about what Kallus and Zeb ate first after Bahryn. Both of them went through a lot, burned a hell of a lot of calories and were probably exhausted and starving.

I wonder if Zeb got treated to a home cooked meal with a side of hot soup before snuggling up in his bunk.

I wonder if Kallus barely inhaled two ration bars and a cup of water before limping to his sterile metal box of a room.

one of those aus where kallus and zeb go through force shenanigans because the bahryn meteorite was a force relic but THIS TIME kallus is slowly becoming force sensitive because the prolonged period where it was cuddled up to him started to idk jumpstart his midichlorians and they're multiplying like crazy. he goes back to the empire and is trying not to panic over the fact a sudden gesture sends his desk skittering across the room. he probably flees the empire sooner purely to ask kanan and ezra "HOW DO YOU COPE?????"

I often wonder how the other Spectres, especially Hera, reacted when they found out Zeb left Kallus on Bahryn to return to the Empire.

Obviously we know how it plays out for good — but Zeb had no way of knowing at the time that it would. Sure they helped each other survive, bonded a bit, but Kallus didn't actually give any real indication he intended to stop being Evil ISB Agent Kallus hunting the Rebellion down. Zeb was surprised when he later learned Kallus was Fulcrum. Without the benefit of hindsight, they 100% should have taken him in to Rebel Command.

If Zeb had mentioned Kallus' presence while they were still near Bahryn I'm pretty sure Hera would have turned the Ghost around to do just that and I doubt the others would have disagreed.

I can imagine that, even if it's after they know Kallus is Fulcrum and has helped them a bunch that she finds out, she would be pretty damn angry at Zeb for taking that chance after everything Kallus had put them through and could have continued to do against the Rebellion.

One of the many cool things about the Honorable Ones is that Zeb and Kallus both save each other when they don't have to anymore. Zeb didn't have to jump down onto that bonzami to save Kallus from falling and being eaten, but he did. Kallus didn't have to shoot the bonzami instead of Zeb, but he did. That's an entirely different layer of meaning than if they had only saved each other's lives while they needed each other to get out of the cave and it's such a brilliant touch.

Zeb rescues Kallus from Bahryn.

‘Today’s our lucky day,’ Hera commented, entering coordinates into the navigation computer with unaccustomed leisure. ‘Chop says there isn’t a single Imp ship in sight…’

The atmosphere thinned until the slate grey sky shifted into the velvety black of space. Hera expertly guided the Ghost around the debris that surrounded Geonosis. Zeb’s stomach took an unsettling turn. ‘Hera… Go back,’ Zeb murmured.

‘What?’ Her hand already gripped the hyperspace lever.

‘Go back. Please.’ Zeb’s stomach tied itself into knots. Chopper, the snarky little bastard, was right. No shuttle or frigate lurked just beyond the neighboring moon. Not even one of those odious probe droids he enjoyed destroying with his bare hands. No one was coming for Kallus. This wasn’t the way a warrior should die.

Hera and Kanan exchanged one of those looks. The ones that held an entire conversation in mere seconds. Kanan’s head inclined a mere fraction of an inch. Hera didn’t say anything, but swung the Ghost around and pointed her nose to the spot where they’d met Zeb. He darted to the cargo hold, eschewing the rungs of the ladders in favor of sliding down the rails, then slapped the controls to lower the ramp.

Frigid wind whipped through the hold. Zeb stood at the top of the ramp, ready to dash across the snowy plain. Kanan appeared next to him, arms folded around his torso against the cold. ‘It’s Agent Kallus, isn’t it?’ Kanan sounded as though he had asked Zeb if blue was his favorite color.

I had a dream once ---- ---- but then i woke up

Writing Kalluzeb Every Day for a Year - Day 6

(A little break from the other stuff)

Idea: (Zeb was pregnant on Bahryn)

-

Agent Kallus could not have heard that right.

"What do you mean you're pregnant!?" He wasn't proud of how his voiced pitched up at the question but honestly he was just that flabbergasted.

Zeb growled in frustration and rolled his eyes.

Kallus continued, spiraling. "And you fight like that? You fool lasat and you stupid rebels! How have we not beaten you yet when you make such reckless decisions?"

"Because we have every reason to fight and everything to gain. This," he gestured to his stomach, "makes me fight harder for what I know is right and the galaxy I want."

"That," Kallus pointed harshly, "makes you lot a bigger threat to yourselves than I thought. How can anyone allow this!? Do you have any idea what you idiots are doing? Allowing a pregnant person in the line the fire!? Do you even understand!?

"You'll be lucky to be captured now!" Kallus leant forward, brows scrunching in pain.

Zeb had been watching Kallus sharply since he started rambling. He'd meant to start shouting back, his anger building to a boiling point to lash out and let this arrogant imperial know exactly how hollow the Empire was for seeing pregnancy as a negative. Part of him was wishing he had just crushed the prick's head and been done with this, no matter how much a goof fighter he was. He'd been foolish to hold on to their rivalry.

Something in Kallus' pitch made him wait it out though. He'd only heard that high pitch when he was dragging the idiot out of the pod and he was scared, and now it seemed to be climbing.

"You stupid rebels, you have no hope of winning. You're 'friends' fled without you. You lot have no understanding of -" Kallus' eyes darted around, lost in some rapid fire thought process, "You will both die! Either here abandoned in this frozen moon or in a fight you will soon lose. And for what!?"

Kallus finally seemed to take a breath. He locked eyes with Zeb and lowered his voice, placating. "When the Empire comes, if you surrender, you will get a trial, you're condition will be taken into consideration, and you can both be safe."

Zeb leant in close to the agent's face. "You trying to protect me Kallus?"

There was a long pause before Kallus continued, trying again to be reasonable. "In the Empire, there is less chaos, less uncertainty of survival. For your child's sake and the future of your kind you should-"

"What do you care about my kind, Agent? You were on Lasan, remember? You gave the order," Zeb returned accusingly.

Kallus looked down and took a breath, seeming ready to say more, but remained silent. He shook his head.

-

(Sorry this isn't very good. I kinda ran out of steam and didn't know where else to take this. I may try it again later and start fresh. )

((I don't know who got Zeb pregnant and I don't really care. Not the point of the story. I wanted the argument to build Kallus into a worried fever pitch that Zeb notices and that's the start of seeing the agents softer side, what he believe about the Empire bringing peace/safety/order and the Rebels being 'callous'/chaotic with people lives. Basically:

Author: Hey KAllus, your crush is pregnant

Kallus: :Dad mode activate:))

"AU Rebel Kallus" ~ Alexsandr Hot Kallus

Something I've been thinking about lately... What if Kallus kept his ISB armor and had Sabine paint it for him?
