Listen I love Torrent, I love Torrent a lot, but we really need to put more respect on Gold Squadron, not only because those are Anakin's fucking BOYS but also just- we don't get to see them a whole lot but they are so great. Gold Squad's captain is named fucking Fireball with SCARLET hair. It's implied Anakin goes drinking with them after battles. They just seem to have a lot of personality from the little we get of them and I love them

Hello, I've added chapter 62 to my story: Return of the Survivors. Below is a small selection. Please click on of the links above to read more.

Chapter 62 - Battle

“Oh, What are we going to do now?” C3-PO complains “This is a disaster, and it’s all your fault.”

“[Groans] C3-PO would you… shut your…hole!” R2-D2 beeps some polite words, telling the protocol droid to silence his vocal processors, and quit fussing. C3-PO, again finds himself thankful to the Maker for installing the profanity blocker in his friend. The way the Astromech beeps sometimes, makes ‘3PO almost wish he didn’t understand Binary. It would have been very unsuitable for the youngling Masters to hear that.

C3-PO still remembers the time he reworked R2's profanity blocker to replace his swear words with happy ones as a prank. 'Oh glitter and rainbows! '3PO, I'm going to Tooka kittens playing deprogram you.' he'd said when he realized what happened. Aah, that was so worth it. It took Master Anakin three hours to reprogram his blocker back. Something about crossing the B-wires, a rookie mistake. Anyways, now the blocker just removes the words from his outbound beeps. It makes him pause from time to time, but ‘3PO fills the gaps with whatever he’d like when translating. It makes it fun.

“Whoever programmed you must have never had an etiquette lesson in their life,” C3-PO chastises.

“You can ... Etiquette. I have more important things to do now. Like prep this T-65 X-wing starfighter for flight and combat, or Master Luke will be…”

“That’s what I’m talking about. We were supposed to find the Masters, inform them how unwise an adventure was, and escort them back home. We were never supposed to be escaping an imperial compound, joining a rebellion, or assisting Master Luke to bomb the same imperial compound. We’re going to be deactivated for sure.”

The Astromech as good as rolled his eyes at him.

“Just be careful, will you? You’ve got to come back,” C3-PO states.

“Have you ever known me to be reckless?” R2-D2 replies.

C3-PO held back the affirmative response that first came up. It was not worth it to get into that argument again. “You wouldn’t want my life to get boring, would you?”

“Your life is already boring.” R2 whistles his reply. “Don’t worry about me, I’ll be back after the mission with another story to tell.”

C3-PO nods and leaves the Astromech to finish his pre-flight procedures. He then goes looking for the Masters. They had all, since arriving on Yavin IV, flown to Alderaan. The enemy battlestation is expected to arrive within the next thirty eight minutes, and everyone is preparing for the fight.

“What happens if you have T-Waves?” Master Anakin quizzed.

"I shut down the engines and wish for good luck," Master Luke answered with a smirk.

"No! See, I knew you weren't prepared for this." Anakin reacts in a perfectly reasonable way.

Luke laughed. “Relax! I shift the thrust engines down and move the S-foils into position four B, then ride the T-Waves out with minimal thrusts. I've got this."

"I know," Anakin whispered. Then he hugged his son.

"Are you ready? Your commanding officer is looking for you," Obi-Wan walks in and asks.

"Yes, Uncle Ben. I'm ready." Luke steps out of the hug and closer to Obi-Wan and the door.

"Wait." Obi-Wan stops Luke and begins to straighten his uniform. "Luke, the Force will be with you."

"Yes, Master," Luke responds. Then after Obi-Wan gives him a playful swipe to his head, he leaves.

"He'll be okay." Obi-Wan says determinedly.

“I know,” Anakin answers grimly.

“Ahsoka said we can watch it all in the control room with the others.”

“Oh good. I would like to analyze the probabilities for the mission in real time,” C3-PO states.

“Come along now.” Obi-Wan puts his hand on Anakin’s back and leads him towards the control room. C3-PO Follows.

Can we please all take a moment to remember the brave Pilots of The 501st's Gold Squadron who fought at The Battle of Bothawui
