(aka trash children, chaos children, and children who understand 98 is getting graded on this)
Inspired by @thefoundationproject! Closeups under the cut:
99, who’s been confined to the med bay for a week: “Oh good, you must be here to break me out of this prison so I can get back to work.”:)
Alpha-17: “Not exactly.”:/
Spar: “Not at all really. Ow!”
Fordo: *putting Spar in a headlock* “Be quiet.”
Muzzle: “Didn’t we all agree he wasn’t allowed to speak anymore anyway?” *flicks Spars nose*
Stec: “Yeah Spar, shut the fuck up. You’re gonna freak 99 out.” *kicks Spar in the shin*
Maze: “That’s enough out of you as well. Don’t make me separate you.”
Mar’ek: “I’ll be the responsible one and step between them now and save us the trouble.”
Alpha-17: -_- “Unfortunately we can’t get you out just yet. Doc says you have to stay here another couple of days.”
*Fordo and Spar fall to the ground still wrestling and arguing*
Sull: “Sorry vod.” :/
Tavo: “We promise to come visit you and keep you updated on the good gossip.”
99: “What do you mean I can’t leave yet?! This is bullshit!”
*scandalous gasp from everyone* “99!”
Aven: “Whoah!”
Trantos: “Who taught 99 the S word?!”
Maze: “The S word? What are you, 2? He said shit, not slut.”
Alpha-17: “Come to think of it, I don’t believe I’ve ever heard 99 swear. I’m impressed.”
Spar: *getting off the ground and dusting himself* “I hate you all. Don’t know why I bothered to come back.”
Jangotat: “You guys have no bedside manner or inside voices.”
A-17: “And your idiots.”
99: “This is bantha osik! Get out and don’t come back till i can leave you traitors!”
Everyone: >:0
I'm cackling! He's doesn't give a fuck. Bitch, Jango is dead and he isn't my father!
The funniest thing about Spar being Mandalore is that you know the rest of the Alphas are just, “No, you aren’t. You’re our dumbass brother, drop it.” They are incapable of taking him seriously.
Spar: I’ve taken the name Mandalore the Resurrector.
Maze: Pay your fucking taxes.
Fordo: Show me the Darksaber, then win a duel against Windu.
Alpha: Drop dead.
Spar: None of you are supportive.
Jangotat: If you weren’t working for the Separatists, we would be.

Just finished The cestus deception few days ago, it's a nice book
A - 98 Nate late as Jangotat
Give him a big sandwich from that scene early in the book
I’m currently reading The Cestus Deception for the very first time (and yes, I know how it ends) and I have to say, it does have its slow moments, but Nate’s character development totally makes up for it. And I really do love that even though he is very immersed in his life as a soldier in the GAR for the first half of the book, he still has that ARC sass.
