Jessix Headcanons -- First Meeting
So, I really got my start on my other fandom blog ( @ya-boy-roy-toy ) by doing my random headcanon lists. I really love making these, and I am also open to taking prompt requests too!
-They initially met as cadets on Kamino. Jesse was older than Kix and they were in different training paths
-So of course they met due to an accident.
-Jesse was the biggest klutz, so he quite literally ran into Kix while trying to find the med bay
-Jesse saw the irony in it. Kix did not.
-Kix exasperatedly let the ‘injured’ trooper follow him to his training area, because “the med bay is not on my way, so this is the best you’re getting”
-Kix’s instructor said that helping tend to his fellow cadet would help further his studies, so the younger clone begrudgingly worked on the chatty clone
-Turns out Jesse had been hit pretty hard in the ribs while sparring, his instructor had been worried he might have some more severe injuries, and so sent him to be cleared by a medic
-Kix poked and prodded him, rolling his eyes when the other would make twitch and say that “it tickles!”
-After watching the young medic work so attentively, really being meticulous when he knew others might have just dismissed him easily, Jesse kind of eased up on the other
-“You’re really good with your hands, you know.”
-It was supposed to be a compliment, acknowledging his true medical skill, but the way that Kix’s ears gained a tint of red, they clearly didn’t come off that way
-Kix looked up at Jesse’s baffled face, narrowed his eyes at him, and said “You’re fine. We’re done here.” Accompanied with a sharp jab to his previously inspected ribs
-Which was then accompanied by a sickening crack in response
-Jesse doubled over in genuine pain, whilst also trying to restrain a small laugh at the irony of it all
-Kix went pale and immediately went into ‘medic-mode’. He ordered a bio-scan immediately to find any other deeper damage that his preliminary exam may have missed, he began isolating and securing the injury, and he called another medic cadet to retrieve some ice.
-This Kix was very different from the one that he had clumsily crashed into in the hall earlier. He was much more commanding and direct, he took control in the face of a situation and threw away all past prejudices
-He liked this Kix.
-He would like this Kix so much that he would become a frequent visitor to the training med bay
-So much so that he had to be blacklisted from said med bay, not to be permitted for treatment unless it was an ‘emergency’
-Jesse made the medics have to define – and redefine, several times – what ‘emergency’ meant, specifically pertaining to Jesse
-Eventually Kix got the hint and started spending time with the older clone outside of the med bay
-Jesse got to meet another side of Kix – a softer, more caring and nurturing side that showed why Kix made a great medic
-He loved this Kix.
-He would love this Kix so much that he would decide from that moment on to never leave his side…
I’m very tempted to make this initial meeting into a short fic. If anyone would be interested in seeing something like that, let me know!
