Writing Kalluzeb Every Day for a Year - Day 2
(Idea: the crew stumble on Lasat!Kallus and Human!Zeb from another universe)
"No kriffing WAY!"
"Ezra, language!" Kanan scolded.
"But look!" Ezra pointed down the ramp as the last two arrivals of their alternate counterparts made their way into the light.
The shorter stature but no less tell tale facial hair of a human Zeb was shocking enough (and he's wearing SHOES!) but the real surprise was the blond fur of a very lasat Kallus that got everyone's attention.
It was weird and impressive how their version's muttonchops lent themselves to his copy's furry face.
Hera kept the calmest but her eyes betrayed her surprise. Kanan couldn't help a double take. Ezra's face was turning red holding in laughter. Sabine bolted towards the ladder. "I'm gonna go get them," she said conspiratorially to Ezra.
"Well this should be interesting," Lasat Kallus said in his overly polished Coruscanti accent.
"Heh, what are the odds we're just swapped species?" Human Zeb laughed.
"No bet," Lasat Kallus responded with an affectionate grin.
That got the crews attention.
"I bet I make a handsome lasat too," Human Zeb said arrogantly, stretching his arms over and behind his head to flex his muscles to his lasat counterpart. "You're finally gonna know what a catch of a human you got; fall in love with me all over again."
"Love!?" Ezra nearly screeched.
The rest of the crew openly gaped at the new pair.
The clanking of shoes and the sound of Chopper's wheels heralded Sabine's return with their two soon to be surprised crew mates.
"Make sure your recording Chop. Ta da!" Sabine gestured her hands out over the railing while looking back to get Zeb and Kallus' reactions as they came into view.
Human Kallus' eyes were perpetually trained to seek out lasat shaped figures and landed on his counterpart immediately. His face fall into a look of melancholy. "It would be my fate to meet myself as something I destroyed."
Lasat Zeb's eyes trained on the alternate Kallus as well and held there. "Woah," he whispered, almost reverently.
Lasat Kallus had found the Lasat Zeb on the balcony and held there as well. His ears perked up, his eyes widened, and (damn his light fur) he blushed.
Human Zeb hadn't taken his eyes off his companion and caught the reaction immediately. "Ah HA! I knew it."
The blond lasat's ears fell down and back, shoulders hunching in, and eyes looking anywhere else. "Sh-shut up!"
