I am DEEPLY offended that the jessixcase family au was left out of the list, so I'm going to demand you tell everyone else about it 💙
I am also deeply offended that I forgot to add them to the list! Especially because it’s one of my favorite AUs!
This is a No Order 66 AU (and Hardcase doesn’t die on Umbara) where the clones win the war and start to integrate into society. Jesse, Kix, and Hardcase are an established throuple and end up being given an apartment (or renting, but I like the idea of them just being gifted a whole ass apartment). Kix remains active, choosing to further pursue his medical studies and becomes a surgeon on Coruscant. I can’t remember if Jesse and Hardcase pursued jobs, but I’m pretty sure Jesse stayed active with the military to help Rex and Cody. Either way, not super important to this AU.
What IS important is that they adopt two baby clones before the Kamino facility gets shut down. One of them is a little older, 4 years, and the other is still barely a year old-ish.
Meet Cosmic (Coz) and Vi.
Coz is a proud, fiercely loyal kid with blond hair (like his Uncle Rex) and heterochromia (one hazel, one violet eye). Vi looks nearly identical to Kix, even more so when he gets older and cuts his hair the way his daddy does during the war.
(Note: Kix is Daddy, Hardcase is Papa, and Jesse is Buir.)
Anyway, I could actually gush about them forever, so I’ll just post a little snippet of stuff that we’ve talked about in the server about them because this family makes me so incredibly happy and we don’t talk about them enough.

Kix comes home from work in the morning and falls asleep on the couch with his baby while he and his older brother watch cartoons.
He gets them some breakfast and then lays down. Vi abandons his breakfast and crawls up onto the couch with his daddy and falls back asleep with him. (Vi is the cuddle bug of the family).
Jesse wakes up to feed them and finds Coz sitting on the floor with a box of cereal in his lap and Kix sound asleep to the sounds of Blue's Clues and Vi faceplanted in his chest.
Coz quietly waves and whispers, "Hi, Buir!"
Jesse's heart melts and he sits down next to Coz, asks if he can have some cereal, and Coz passes him the box. Jesse eats a handful and asks Coz if he wants anything else for breakfast
Coz just grins and leans against his side. "I want eggsssss."
Jesse snorts and hugs him. "Eggs? I can do that."
He turns to try and prod Vi awake because he shouldn't be sleeping that late, but he whines and buries further into Kix, which stirs Kix. Kix is exhausted, but he sits up with him and tells him he has to eat breakfast. Vi agrees, but only if Kix stays with him. So, Kix, tired, sits through breakfast, though he's thankful for a hot, Jesse-made meal and stumbles into bed with Hardcase after Jesse gets the boys started for the day. A hot meal with his babies, some sweet kisses from Jesse, and a cup of his favorite (non-caffeinated) tea goes a long way toward healing the stress of an overnight shift, and a nap with Hardcase is a perfect way to finish it.
Kix asks if he should wake Hardcase and Jesse shakes his head.
"He was up late. I can handle the boys and take them out for a few hours. Besides, you know he sleeps better if you're with him."
Kix just smiles. He feels bad because his job doesn't allow a lot of room for switching schedules, but he is always happy to crawl into a nice cool bed in a room darkened by blackout curtains with one of his favorite people.
