Now that I've noticed I can't un-notice that every clone wars episode is Dave Filoni try to keep the most competent characters (Mace Windu, Commander Fox, Yoda, Commander Cody, Plo koon) as far away as he can from both each other and the plot so that they don't just solve it themselves
Cody: I swear on my brother's lives I am a straight man
Bly: HELP I CANT BREATH, TELL AYLA I LOVE HER
Rex: The light...its getting closer...
Fox: MY HEART I THINK ITS FAILING
Wolffe: If I knew I was gonna die today I would've bullied Fox more
Not only at Life Day, but especially then, as he’s convinced that his vode cannot escape at least then! They just can’t stand that he makes them weak 😁
More under the cut ✨
Commander Fox gave in and Commander Wolffe can grump, but that won't work for long. Thorn's positivity and endless love for his vode will make him vomit rainbows, but he can growl and puff up his chest, but he won't get away! 🐺💕 As if he wanted to get away 😂
Close up on the light side of the Force 🦊🪽
and close up on the grumpy side of the Force ⚡️🐺
I got inspired by this conversation of them by @cc1010fox 😻 Thank youuu! I thought on Life Day Thorn would spread his attachment clinginess love more than ever! 😁🎄✨ Happy Life Day to you, Sir! 🫶🦊✨
And Happy Life Day, Happy Yule and Merry Christmas to you all my lovely folks! 🥰🎄✨ I wanted to do more, but what a year and at the moment I'm just happy that I survived 🫠
@jetii Get a hug from joyful and unbeatable Commander Thorn! 😁
Warning: Some suggestive
A/n: This thought came to me while watching an edit on TikTok of That 70’s Show with Kitty and Red, and I thought of Wolffe 🙃
Hunter is “Grumpy x Sunshine”. He is completely absorbed by your energy, amazed at your ability to keep optimistic. Whether he explicitly realized it or not, he needed some of that in his life—he needed more of you. Sometimes it got on his nerves, every time he tried to shoot down a suggestion, and you opposed him. The two of you have had countless passionate arguments, pushing your personalities together instead of pulling you apart. And at times he hated it, but he understood you and your perspective. He let certain things go in the name of “optimism” instead of being immediately negative. And it did benefit him in the long run, but the best part was always your reaction; praising him, which he’d constantly respond with a grumble. In a way the two of you fit together, despite being opposites, always bringing different things to the table.
Crosshair is “The No Feelings Hookup” (bonus points if it’s anonymous). One-night-stands are easy, they require limited emotional involvement, if any. The tricky part is getting him to come back for a second round. He prefers things where he can keep the other person at arms length, and entering a relationship is one of the hardest things for him to do because of it. He prefers when he doesn’t have to commit to anything (but holds a double-standard, he wants you to prove loyalty, yet he’s afraid to do the same). Loyalty means a lot to him, not just receiving it, but giving it out. He doesn’t just go around handing it out, he protects it and is extremely selective about who he chooses to bestow it upon. But if you do manage to get him to see you again, there’s still a long road ahead of you. He’ll continue to pretend like he doesn’t care, but just the simple aspect of him coming back is huge. And he’ll nitpick, trying to find something wrong with you so he can have an excuse to leave, to validate his internal worries that he doesn’t have to open up to someone new, and he can stay safe in the emotional bubble he surrounds himself in.
Wrecker is “The Guy Next Door”. He was that guy you saw everyday, waving kindly and exchanging a few words, keeping it friendly. But over time those conversations grew longer, and he seemed to remember those little details you’d told him, even if he forgot the bigger picture. With every conversation you were laughing and smiling from ear to ear, never wanting those short interactions where you “happened” to be leaving both of your houses at the same time to end. You started finding excuses to invite him over; like moving your couch, building your bed frame, and fixing the leak in your bathroom shower. And every time you asked him for something, he lit up. Then finally, after countless almosts, he fumbled through asking you out on a date.
Tech is “Everyone sees it, but you”. It seemed like every conversation between you two was somewhat suggestive, even over comms. And everyone around you seemed to notice the tension every time you were even close to him. But naturally, he didn’t pick up on any of it. Eventually all the small things started to amount, and he continued to dismiss them. But one of his brothers confronted him about it, and he admitted that he did like being around you, and missed you when you weren’t there. He could remember direct quotes from too long ago to still be “just friends”. But said out loud all together, it still took his brother saying “You love them” for it to all click into place, and he realized they were right. He didn’t wait a moment longer to tell you.
Echo is “The Bodyguard”. As a major acts of service guy, it only made sense. His one job was to protect you, but he wasn’t so good at keeping his distance. He knew your schedules, your job, everyone you knew, etc. He became so ingrained in your life, even for the short time he was hired to do his job. And he noticed things, too. Noticed if you were dreading going somewhere, or if you were anxious about your job, even about scheduling choices. He was there for you, not intending to be this romantic knight in shining armor, but genuinely trying to take your worries away and help you. But in doing this, the two of you relied on each other, becoming so ingrained in the routines of your lives. And when his job was done, it didn’t feel right for either of you to just leave it at “goodbye”, and you both wanted more.
Jesse is “Second Chance”. The first time you dated, neither of you were quite ready for it. You were younger then, and less experienced, didn’t really know what you wanted yet, or what life had in store for you. But since then, you’d both grown as people, changing for the better. You’d reflected on all those useless fights, knew where the trigger points were, and worked to be better. Now, the second time around, it’s almost like a do-over with how much each of you has changed, like you’re new people. But the good parts, the parts you missed, are still the same. You didn’t expect yourself to give him a second chance, “once was enough” you had decided after the break-up. But seeing him again changed that single-track mindset, and he won you over, the same as he had the first time, with that smile and those cheesy one-liners that made you giggle and roll your eyes. This time you were prepared. It wasn’t casual dating, it was serious, and you both wanted it to be the last first date you ever went on.
Fives is “Friends with Benefits”. He was your friend, not your best friend, but your friend. It’s why you felt comfortable entering the arrangement in the first place. The whole intention was to fulfill each other’s needs, having a person to fall back on when you didn’t feel like picking a stranger from the bar. But that was exactly your undoing. You started to rely on each other, stopped thinking about other people as an option, thinking you only needed each other. And once that kind of thinking started, it was impossible to stop, or alter them to be the way they were in the beginning. It stopped being about the sex, and more about the person. That’s when he knew he was completely screwed, and he started to fall in love with you.
Rex is “Secret Dating”. He takes his job very seriously, and he doesn’t want anything to compromise it in any way, especially because being together could potentially put you in danger. And the logical part of his brain is telling him this is a bad idea, and to let you down easy before anything even begins. Yet, he can’t. He falls for you hard, and is curious. It’s all new and he wants to experience it, but he’s scared of it being public, and you understand. So you agree to keep it a secret, allowing a selective few in on it. The guilt tears at him, but he knows it’s what’s best, even if he wishes it were different. But with you, it’s more than just physical, you’re his companion, he admires you, and you connect to the deepest parts of himself. So while it’s a secret, it only adds to the passion.
Cody is “Forced Proximity”. He didn’t think about wanting a relationship, and hadn't ever expected it for himself. Not until he was forced together with you, alone. He was stiff at first, not thinking much of you. But as you worked together to get yourselves out of the stuck situation at hand, he noticed your strengths, started to admire you. He had noticed these things about you before, but not like this. Then he couldn’t get you out of his head, was overthinking everything you’d said to him, every action you’d done. And being the confident, caring person he was, he tried not to make anything of it. But you noticed the shift, how he started to spend more time with you, and slightly, his demeanor had shifted, as if reserved for you.
Wolffe is “I hate everyone but my wife”. He’s stern with everyone, keeping the mask up at all times. He tolerates others, but loves you. Being with you is the only time anyone will see glimpses of his soft side. He would never let you apologize for anything, he’s quick with it, backtracking and fixing his mistake once he realizes it. Everyone else is just background noise, but you…you’re everything, the only thing that truly matters to him. He defends you in situations you’re not even aware of, behind your back and right to your face. And in the beginning it might have taken him a while to open up, but once you broke through to the vulnerable, real him, he locked you down with that ring. He couldn’t ever imagine letting you go once you entered his life.
Fox is “Rivals to Lovers”. He never truly hated you, but he sure made it look like he did. Rude, antagonizing at times, and with a persistence that clashed with yours. His competitiveness came with the sole motivation to defeat you. He didn’t even care if he won, but with you two constantly butting heads, and the constant mocking banter, he definitely put everything into it. But over time, he began to loosen his grip on the rivalry, and loved the look on your face when you finally won—though he’d never admit it to you, he’ll take that information to his grave.
Mayday is “age gap romance”. This man is gentle, patient, and he’s got his shit together. He makes sure there’s little to nothing you have to worry about, and he’s constantly soothing your fears. When your relationship went serious, and became official, he was hesitant. But you quickly assured him of your stability and commitment in the relationship, and he was indefinitely encouraging. When comparing experience, he was patient with teaching you, giving gentle directions, and being ever so much a gentleman. Dinners, passionate evenings (but early bed), lazy mornings, he was slow and steady. With the occasional difference in maturity and cultural touchstones, there was nothing to complain about, especially once you got on the same page about priorities.
Gregor is “The Marriage Pact”. When you first began your friendship with Gregor, you’d both agreed that if you were both single by the time you turned thirty, that you’d marry each other. It was a solid plan, you both went out into the world trying your hand at the dating world. But every time he got a new significant other, your heart sank. None of them stuck, and the darkest part of yourself was glad, because secretly you wanted to make it to thirty and single. What you didn’t know was he was thinking the exact same thing about your relationships. Sure, he liked them all well enough, but anytime one of them became a little too serious an anxious feeling thundered through him as he considered the thought that you might actually marry one of them. You went in circles around each other for years, both not keeping around significant others for the same purpose of getting to that marriage pact, though the fact was not known to each other. But you didn’t make it to thirty, you both broke from the tension, not bearing to see the other with someone else, and that wedding happened earlier than originally planned.
Emerie is “Unrequited Love” (secretly requited). She was pining after you for years. Always at your doorstep the moment you even started asking her for help. She did everything you asked, if you needed her, there she was. It became so automatic for her, answering your calls at all hours, no matter what you needed. Be it to combat loneliness or questions about your recent medical exam, she was there for you. She was your girlfriend without the “rewards”. And for a while, she didn’t even care. Any part of knowing you was better than none. She yearned, and pined, and wanted you to know more than anything, but was so afraid of ruining the good thing you had going. And the worst part, she didn’t think you reciprocated her feelings at all, and that crushed her. Until one day, you called her over and confessed your feelings, leaving her shocked and overwhelmed with relief. She finally got what she’d been wanting since meeting you—a chance to love you, and for you to love her back.
