Just Realized I Could Have Made It So Much Angstier..... But Seeing Day 3 Be Happy I Guess.
Just realized I could have made it so much angstier..... But seeing day 3 be happy I guess.
For day two of the Rexwalker week from this post from @rexwalkerweek
-----------------------------------------
Day 2: Tattoine | Form 2: Elegance, Precision, Convergence
-----------------------------------------
“Only you sir….”
“Come on Rex, it’s not that bad!”
“Permission to speak freely?”
“Of course!”
“That is utter banthapoodooh…”
“Hey!”
“To be fair sir, you started this banter on purpose….”
The general started grumbling about wanting to try and ignore the sand and that his captain was a meanie. Outside the cave they were hiding in, the sandstorm was covering the remains of that GAR issued shuttle.
"Okay everyone!" Started Kix, gaining the four other men's attention. "I made the inventory and we better pray to be able to find civilization within a week before running out of rations..."
The General seemed to think a bit at that one.
"Kix, I am pretty sure that with those rations we can make it at least three weeks if you eat them correctly...." He started "And for the water we are definitely near a black melon's patch so we could make some reserves.... When the storm is calmed down I will try to see where exactly we are in the dune sea."
All the Vode looked at their leader.
"Have you ever been on a desert planet, sir?" Asked Echo.
The Jedi laughed.
"It is so much worst than you think... I was born there, on Tattoine."
The night fell and Rex wasn’t sure if he preferred it over the day as the cold could rival the one on Hoth on a good day.
"Rex?"
The captain hummed, acknowledging the presence of his general.
"R2 is already standing guard, don’t worry. Trust me, he we see if something arrive way better than you in this weather."
"My helmet-"
"Was not made to be able to see in nor withstand this weather, and even on a good day it could not allow you too detect a krayth dragon approaching. But R2 got some specific update in order to be able to."
The silence stretched for a bit.
“That scared to come back here, sir?” murmured the blond, turning around to look at his superior.
Anakin looked in his eyes before turning to look outside.
“It’s not like you and Kamino, you still have family you can go back to there, while mine already joined Ar-Amu…”
Rex grabbed his hand.
"I don't think you're right sir... Not about the Tattoine part but about your family...." Rex felt heat raise to his cheek as the other's gaze came back onto him and was very glad he was wearing his bucket. "I mean, I'm pretty sure the Commander and High General might be quite sad about not being seen as family. Or even the boys back on the venator... They really took that drunken confession to heat." He finished with a small laugh, looking back in the General's eyes since his gaze drifted towards their hands as he talked.
The Jedi hummed.
"I guess you might be right..."
"Always sir."
An eyroll.
"Come on, in this cold, better share a bedroll not to freeze to death."
"Oh I'm fi-"
"Rex, please vod, go with him, to sleep or to fuck I don't care, but please stop with the tension. Only the twin can sleep and it's only because whatever they say, they're still babies!" Called Kix from inside the cave, definitely fed up with them dancing around each other.
"We are not that bad..." Mumbled Anakin and Rex swore he could feel R2, in all his droidness, give them a look. He shook his head, amused.
"Well, you heard him, sir, lead the way!"
Rex knew it was only an opening for something more, that they would need to talk about everything in order to make things happens, but for now? He was just happy to finally get to hug his general.

Outer Wilds with two siblings (intro to the game 11)
Warning!!!! Outer Wilds spoilers!!!
(please do not spoil me/us the game, I would like to discover it on my own with my brother)
(Please start at the beginning, it'll be easier to understand. Plus the Masterpost explain a bit, go read it please)
Now here comes the museum of the observatory where you learn a lot about the planets around without having to leave Timber Hearth (our planet's name).
For example, there is:
- A weird Nomaï statue that someone from the space program named Gabbro brought back from Giant's Deep (I heard a few tales he told about that planet too)
- A freaky dark stone that moves when you turn around, like some horror movie vibe. Gabbro (them again) said it was from a quantum origin. Seems important to note.
- Some stones that are attracted by the moon's (Attlerock) gravity. To which my brother said "so it explains why it seemed like we moved on our own sometimes." which was promptly confirmed when we left the text window and got dragged in the same direction as the rocks.
- A fish from a far away planet, Dark Bramble, that hitched a ride on one of our ships once. It's apparently used to its surroundings being dark or something? Not sure it'll be useful.
- An exposition on the life of a star maybe made by a class of kindergartners... Oookay?
- So there is a stone that can make you walk on walls now cool!
- So apparently we reverse engineered the Nomaï's tech to improve our probes so there was no chance to lose them? What's all this thing about a warp?
- So the Nomaïs and the Hearthians have nothing in common and we are in no way their descendants, so why and how did they all disappear?
- The Nomaï's way of writing is really interesting, there is a loop written on a surface telling one thing and another on the side answering. It's so much easier to understand than our own I think. Plus it looks like the writing is different between two Nomaï? In this one they speak about building something on Attlerock. Noted, we will investigate. Just what's that drawing next that discussion on the wall? It's like an explosion or a star?
Anyway, museum finished, we now go up to the observatory where we find our civilization seems to have reached some theory of the Big Bang. Not sure if this is going to be important but heh, writing it there just in case.
Now, we meet Hornfels who gives us the launching codes and tells us where every other astronautes are (except Feldspar of course): Chert on the Hourglass Twins, Riebeck on Brittle Hollow and Gabbro on, we could have guessed, Giant's Deep.
Edit : I forgot the map showing us our System next to them at the center of the room! There is some kind of white sphere with a structure next to it at the border of the system so what’s with that? Oh, and some Sun station too! So noted I guess?
Now that we have everything, time to get to space!
Okay, what is wrong with that Nomaï statue now? I thought I was going to die with that sudden flashback of all the things that happened! And now it's eyes are open... Creepy... (The fact that it couldn't go through everything we did makes me think we messed around a bit too much XD)
Great, now my friend thinks I'm crazy... Yay!
Anyway, to adventure and beyond!

Nintendo Characters in Traditional Japanese Art Style made by Ukiyo-e Heroes
Headcannon!
(Yes still Quinlan Vos, that guy is fun...)
I don't know if it was ever explained, but I have an idea about Quinlan dislike of the clones....
We know that he's a psychometric, and we can guess that during the clone war, he's a falling or once fallen Jedi depending on the moment your placing yourself.... He meet the clones and the first thing he sees is someone acting professional and extremely polite while he can feel the fear and loathing under their facade. With his already fragile mental health it's definitely not going to go well with him.
For day three of the Rexwalker week from this post from @rexwalkerweek
---------------------------------------
Day 3: Coruscant | Form 3: War of Attrition, Guardians of Light, Opportunity
---------------------------------------
Tw: maybe considered mind rape?
“Captain Rex”
“Vader”
Rex was on his knees, two shaking stormtroopers holding him down for the show as he glared at the Sith, head held high. The black cladded man gestured them to leave after some long seconds of stare down with only the deep breathing of his lungs' support resonating in the room and they quickly obligated, making the clone scoff at their unprofessionalism and clear lack of training.
The blond stood up cranking his neck to try and keep eye contact with Vader as the Sith stepped closer. When he stilled, a gloved thumb started to follow the shape of Rex’s jaw as the other fingers dug in the now longer curled blond hair. The ex captain slapped the limb away as best as he could with his hands still bound together.
“Don’t you dare try and act like him” he spat.
The hand came back to grip his jaw, not tight enough to bruise, but tight enough to force Rex’s neck to bend an even more awkward angle as Vader stepped even closer in the clone’s personal space, pressing them together.
“It seems to be a misunderstanding, dear…” rumbled the Lord as he shifted his hold to a more gentle one “I am not trying to act like him, I am simply taking back what’s mine.”
Scoffing the blond tore himself away from the Sith, taking a few steps back.
“Yours? In what right?”
Vader chuckled, walking closer again and seemingly amused when the clone started to step back until he was trapped against the durasteel wall.
"What was Anakin's could be said to be rightfully mine now, don't you think?"
Should he spat on that too shiny black helmet? There was the current dilemma of the ex trooper.
"No. You are not him, you have no right to it."
"But still" a gloved hand was back on his cheek, making rex shudder and try to back away even further, pushing on the armored man's chest "Who else is left to try and claim it?"
The hand gripped his jaw again, the other catching his bonded wrist to pull them away from the keypad on the Sith's torso.
"You will accept it, Captain, there is no other choice."
"Kriff off!" growled the prisoner "What happened to all that light? What did you do?"
Vader hummed.
"No one was left to protect it."
Rex wanted to cry, he felt the bond linking his mind to the one of the creature standing before him being teared open, darkness slamming against his walls and wrenching a cry out of him.
"But I- I was here!"
"Only a fool believe that him alone can protect such a tall brasier from the storm."
"Stop talking in metaphor" hissed Rex through the pain in his head. "It sounds dumb coming from you."
Rex was pressed against the wall now, leather gloves erasing the tears that started to run down the blond's cheeks.
"Don't resist it, Rex, it will only make it hurts..."
The captain could barely think, the pain was everything he could process. Then something broke and the pain became a dull throb. His legs failed him, making him fall on the Sith who possessively embraced him.
"Did you know how much time I waited for that?" the Dark Lord whispered to the barely conscious clone "I did never found your helmet on that moon so I knew you were alive, after all, someone needed to be alive to bury everyone..."
Rex was shifted in a bridesmaid's carry, his head tucked against the black cladded man's neck and shoulder.
"And then I saw you in that alley on Coruscant. Of course you escaped, I didn't expected to have you back that easily."
The ex trooper's mind was in turmoil, he could feel Vader on the edge of it, simply watching but surprisingly not invading.
"But I know you, I know how you sacrifice yourself for the others. And I knew that you would throw yourself at my feet if only for the right hostage."
Rex's breath hitched as some more things made sense.
"Echo... Clone Force 99...."
"The last Domino, yes. The other were merely a bonus that helped find some... Traitor in our ranks. I didn't knew CT-9904's chip started acting up again. Good riddance at least, one least person to stab us in the back I guess..."
A door opened in front of them.
"But I'm sidetracked. It was simple, really. Use the girl to get to the clones, use the clones to attract your attention. And when I saw you standing on that roof, your silhouette against Coruscant night sky.... Well I took that opportunity. And look! I have you now! Sadly one of my 501st ran away but it's only a matter of time before I get everything I ever wanted."
As they stopped, Rex - his face still hidden in the crook of the Sith's neck - remembered something.
"Ashoka-"
"Once I have everything, Palpatine will be dealed with and I will avenge the ones he took from me."
Good, he didn't knew. His relief seemed misunderstood since the Sith tightened his grip slightly before laying his captain on what felt like a bed.
"Yes, we will be taking care of that old good for nothing liar, do not worry."
Rex could barely stay conscious at that point, he was completely emptied by the mind battle he had to try and fight earlier. But before he could drift off, he still had the time to hear one last thing.
"Must it takes weeks, month or even years, I will get to you. I already lost so much already and I couldn't bear to loose you too..."
