Okay so you mentioned liking if you had someone to bounce ideas off of, so I'm adding something of my own.
Basically what I thought in your first post about this when you said Aiden one time randomly woke up to see Kyle watching him sleep. I'm imagining it's after that when Aiden starts finding Kyle's dens. I'd imagine that Crane still has some basic control over himself which is why he acts like a feral ally cat rather then an outright ravenous beast, and after Aiden starts camping out at some of Kyle's dens he would start finding zombie heads and arms layed out. But it would kinda be like when a cat brings dead rodents for their owners. The little offerings of "food?" would only show up at safe houses Aiden shows up at often or the last den he looked at.
I also feel like Aiden only found out what was happening after bouncing alot of thoughts on Spike, then one night where he'd actually fallen asleep at one of Crane's dens he'd woke up to find Kyle with a half torn, eaten zombie arm that he was leaving there for him.
I did say that and Im very happy you added this it makes me giddy roleing around in my bed.
This gift giving Idea was in my head but I mostly thought that it would have been aiden doing it. to try and get Crane friendly with him. Now I think it could happen both ways. I see Crane giving his 'gifts' after the first winter Aiden and Spike are there. Spike would the first one to voice his worrys when he sees snow falling.
"What if he gets snowed in?" He questioned while aiden was checking over his winter gear. It makes the younger man puase for a moment "who old man?" "crane" a sigh from Aiden as he tossed his coat aside "your making me go out there so he'll be fine" it didnt comfort the old man much but it was something.
Finding the old beast in his den was harder that originally thought when aiden first started but with snow covering the ground it was easier. Aiden found him after a few more days all curled up tight in a ridiculous amout of ragged blankets and aiden nearly got his precious face ripped off when he first tryed to leave food for the old thing but after a while Crane stopped reacting to him entering his den and exept his food. Progress!
First time receiving his own 'food' was when the last of the frost was gone from the ground and warm summer nights plague them. Settled at one of the safe houses aiden for the night aiden did not expect to only be greeted with a severed leg when he woke up... lovley. After a it happened a few more times he couldn't help but complain to Spike about it
"sounds like an over grown cat" Spike mussed and Aiden glared at the old man "a cat?" "Yeah, at the tower we had a cat who would control the rodent problem" Spike chuckled from the memory "some times she would gift one of us her hard earned meal" this made Aiden astop for a moment and think. Was the old beast realy giving gifts to him and not trying to scare him of? If he was honest this was one weird way to show appreciation but alas what can he do. Not exept them and get the old beast mad at him?

Part two on this head canon thing, though part one sounded more like story beats that I was wrighting down than head canons. What ever I'm not supposed to worry about this.
So how would Crane act in this au 🤔 now that he's talking more of a feral role?
Not completely sure but one thing that I like to think about is dens. Yes den*s* multiple and not just one. I injoy the thought that aiden would find one and thinking "aha! Found the old beast's den now I just got to wait" to only then descover that Crane has multiple over his territory and now has to find them.
I got this idea from other animals and the fact that the to have more than one den sight in case one is compromised. For example wolfs move there young from one sight to the next quite frequently. So why not Crane?
Also, also when aidens and Cranes relasion ship is better and there not trying to kill eachother
It been a month or to sence I posted so now that finnaks are done, and I'm in the mood. Ive decided to wright down some head cannons on the roleswap au/the old beast au. So some of this might not makes sence but this is for my own injoyment so i dont really care.
Also if you have questions about this au please ask me. I would like someone to bounce ideas off of.
-i think aden and spike would show up after crane excaped from the barrons lad becuase I like the though of them hear about a rumor about the old beast as the ask around if any one has seen someone like crane.
-they don't lurn about the rumor untill a few weeks in and one of barrons caravan get destroyed by what looked to be a volatile when aiden asks about it one of the locals tells them it could have been the old beast
-after hearing the rumor Spike begs aiden to look for the old beast becuase the description sounds like kyle despite how disheveled it sounds
-Aiden is of couse hesitant becuase one its a rumor about a volatile and two if its true then. He has to find a volitile that destroyed barrons carrivan in broad daylight that could be kyle crane.
-aiden dose eventually agrees to but very reluctantly
-there first meeting ever would be aiden in one of the many safe houses, sleeping under a UV light system feeling safe. when sudden he wakes up, the kind were it feels like you were never asleep in the first place. He dosnt know why but the safe house his in no longer feels safe and he cant put a finger on it and when he starts to visually check over the space. he has to do a double take when his eyes meets another pair peeking over the rim of the window he use to get inside of the safe house. It unnerves him becuase why would it not? Some one was watching him while he sleeps and they could have come in and slit his throat, worst case, best would be somethings missing. He's unsure what to do Spike thankfully in the town hall so he doesn't have to worry about the old man but he still has to worry about himself. Just a little movement desides for him the stranger's miss match eyes disappear from the window and the feral urge to give chase at fast movement makes aiden rush to the window only to be meet with the moonless night.
Ok hello again 👋 sence i dont know anyone to write this roleswap au. i wanted, one try and write it myself and, two to create a tag for it, or just call the au, if anyone likes the idea enough. So yeah.

So I've been thinking about dyeing light the beast for a while now and I had the idea for a roleswap. Were aiden and kyles roles would be swapped. Aiden trying to take revenge on or just take down the barron and kyld being the feral beast running around, cuz I kept thinking on how kyle would have not gotten out scot free with out metal scars (you can argue that he dose have trauma becuase of his obsession with giting revenge) so why not turn it up to ellen and make kyle a feral old beast?
When people said vampires were like cats you brushed it off, believing that it was some romantic wanting their neck bitten by a vampire. But nowhere you are with one of your own a spawn named Astarion (little star). A vampire who is now free because of you and is suckling like a little kitten on your arm where you had cut it open for him.
You have seen kittens have even taken care of some with your mother when you were younger. Their small fragile bodies squirming around the soft blanket their mother had put them on. Your watch as their small faces latched on to their mother and fed happily. You'd watch as their ears would wiggle ever so slightly, signaling to you that they had a good latch on to the tit but now your watch as Astarion's long ears shift the same way the kittens would as he drank from you. A good latch. 'Good' you think as you watch him take the last few gulps of your blood and release your arms from his fangs. He pants as he licks the blood from your wound. Sealing it. he looks up at you, lips smeared with your blood. In a sense he looks cute to you ,others probably not, but to you. All you can see is your lover well fed and smiling at you.
Summary: the bad batch come to visit Kath after a particularly nasty adventure. We all one witch one.
-start-
After they left Kath and her home. Hunter thought that would be the last they would see of her. He was wrong of course. Her home was quite and calm. A nice place to relax when things got to much and her open and friendly demeter only made it more enticing to return to such a tranquil place.
The first time they returned to Kath's land; everyone involved was surprised. Even Omega, whom had been practically begging to go back and see her, was surprised. Kath had greeted them with open and, as she did the first time and rushed to get there room ready (For she to thought they too, would never return). That night She had baked them food, fresh from her garden and evan gave them a reprieve from their ever curious Omega. By taking her outside to meet the farm animals that Kath kept and took care of. The days after were calming. Kath had given Hunter and his family time to think and relax before she started bumping small choirs on them. Calming that it was to pay off the ship they 'bought'. Thought the majority of them seamed to be given to Omega much to her displeasure.
Their trips to Kathy's home were few and far between but every time was like heaven. Kath would greet them with a wide small and a crushing hug. lead them to their rooms and would talk for hours catching up on there adventurers and depending on the mission they came from. She would talk on wreckers as she gave a massage That would turn him to pudding.
the time that counted the most. was when... When they removed there chips and learned that crosshair- they headed to Kath as soon as they could, Rex was along for the ride, the couldn't bother dropping him off as the hole team was in shock. They all new he had questions as to were they were heading but he asked non as Tech entered the quartets.
It was night by the time they arrived and Kath was out side like every other time they had arrived. Her face held no smile ,like she new something wrong had happened. Omega was the first to exit the ship as she lunched her self in to Kath arms and burst in to tears. Hunter could hear the muttered words of comfort Kath whispered to Omega. He could also hear the pause in Rex's foot steps as he saw Kath.
"Who is she?"
"Some one we can trust" Hunter muttered. Kath had opened her arms to them like she always had. She asked no questions as she lead them in side. Not to even why Rex was their. She fed them a good meal that made their eyes drooped and ushered them to the showers and gave them fitting clothes. She even help Omega, whom was practically dead on her feet, put on her clothes. No one mentioned her red puffy eyes as she was put to bed.
"You do not need to tell me what has happen" she had said "but know I am here for you when you need it" they were simple words but it felt like every thing.

__Hello fellow readers before you read this is have a few things to say. If you don't like Adam Taurus this fanfic is not for you. For this is centered around him. This is also a redemption fic you will be reading Adams journey of him becoming a better person. __
-Redemption-
In the world of Remnant. Zaferis was one of the many, few faunus that lived in a nomadic tribe. That traveled in the land where the grim thrived and the hunters and huntresses were few and far between. There sister tribe ,Daekrahm. Was a tribe mostly made up if children, elderly, and thous who could not quell there negative emotions because out there if you could not control you emotions. you would comdem your brothers and sister to death. By bringing grim upon you.
so their sister tribe had settle, safely. close to humanity. Not so close that a human full of hate could walk in and hurt their young but close enough were hunters would regularly paroling the area, keeping the grim away from the weak. So Daekrahm became the meeting ground for the two divided tribes and every five years they would meet for a month and celebrate the competition of a migration cycle. It was also the month were trials would take place. These trials were made for young faunus that wanted to join the nomadic tribe.
They where test of survival, control, and insurance. If you failed theses trails you would never be allowed to travel with the tribe because out there, were the grim lived, life was difficult and hard. Every year they would lose one or two members to the simples things, an infection, Starvation, or them simply losing there way. It was not place for someone who could not control themselves. But the celebration of there convergence was still a few days away. All of them had to wait. To quell there excitement for a day or two.
For now Zaferis had to focus on the task at hand. Hunting. Quill was not to far from him. A few feet down the river she was under the cover of shrubs. waiting patiently. Just like how Zaferis had tough her. Thank fully they did not have to cross the river. Since the wind was blowing down hill from the river. they could safely wait where they where.
From were Zaferis had sat him self. He could hear nothing but peaceful silence of nature, unlike. . . The mine's. They where never silent. There was always some sort of sound echoing of the uneven surfaces. Whether that be the sound of metal Picks hitting unstable material or gasping breaths for the already thin air. A click snapped Zaferis out of this thought. Quill as it turns out had absentmindedly flexed her quills. Making them click as they fell back down apon her head.
"Quill" Zaferis warned the porcupine faunus. She in turned gave a grumpy huff from were she was siting.
"Nothing has shown up! It had been hours!" She grumbeled.
"If you yell like that there will be nothing" Zaferis huffed. His eyes went back to scanning the forest line, ignoring Quills grown. Though she made no nice after that. Leaving the forest to continue is soft lullaby.
Movement from the bushes snapped Zaferis in to action. Silently he grad his bow and knocked an arrow from his quiver. He watched intensely as the bushes shivered and shook from what ever creacher was moving through it. Slowly and carefully a deer poked a head out. He did not fire. Something else did.
As soon as the chances of food had presented its self it was gone in a blind panic, Leaping away from the cuncusive bang. That echoed across the forest floor. Sighing Zaferis carefully un-knocked the arrow and placed it in to his quiver. Quill was at his side like she never left it.
"The shots aren't stopping" she odserved. Her quills were stand on end, forming a Mohawke on top of her slim face. "Why are they doing that?"
"There are still grim here" Zaferis reminded her. Her opservashion was right. The sounds of fighting had yet to cease. They had actually goten worst, Zaferis noted "Not a many as in the wild lands but there still here" Quill shuffled nervisly next to him, looking from the nice to him and back again.
"Are we going to help them?" She timidly asked.
"We're not monsters," Zaferis stated. She was off like a loaded spring, as soon as Zaferis said thoughts words and up the stream towards the distant sounds of fighting. A zing of fear stabbed itself into Zaferis's chest with such sudden, swiftness. It made him fumble to follow after her.
They followed the sounds of fighting, for who knows how long. It could have been minutes or seconds for all he knew it could have been an hour but what he did know, was that the longer they followed the sounds the louder they became. They followed the steam up to a roaring waterfall. Above them, the sounds of fighting suddenly stopped like a script in a game.
Quill looked nervously from Zaferis up the ridge above them. Did they defeat the grim? Are they dead? Or are they just injured? If that's the case Quill and he would never be able to reach them in time. The climb up to the ridge would take too long. it was not long before Zaferis's eyes caught something falling from the ridge. It looked vaguely human but with the mist, it was hard to tell. Well, whatever it was, it hit the cliff hard. Even with the crescendoing roar of the waterfall, he heard the crack as it hit the rock and disappear into the watery fog. Without a second thought, his body moved. Striping all the heavy gear he dove into the ice, cold water. He did not even hear the shocked, cry from his disciple.
the current was thankfully slow and not hard to fight, as he swam upstream toward the rocks. the visibility was low he noted vaguely, as he searched the rocks for whatever had fallen. when he did the water had turned bright red around them. he push past the rocks and scrambled to carry their head above water. a strained cough reassured him that they were still breathing. Quill was passing back and forth at the bank where Zaferis left her. as soon as she notest him she cust dropping to her knees and rummaging around in her backpack. as soon as Zaferis reached the river bank she help him pull the stranger out of the river and amenity put presser on the wound on his stomach. as she did that Zaferis was putting on his dry gear to try and protect himself from the cold weather. his lips were already getting a little blue from his little dip.
"He was stabbed" Quill murmured, "why would why is he stabbed?" Zaferis turned toward her after all his dry gear was on and knelt next to her.
"Let me see" he mutters softly. Quill removed her hands away from the still bleeding wound as Zaferis replace hers. He did his best to asses the wound whilst keeping pressure on in. She was right the wound was not big enough for it to be a claw and two clean cut to be anything else. The wound was not beep, a few inches at lest, in to the flesh. The only risk was that the faunus's small intestine mite have been perst.
"Help me patch him up" She did as she was asked and helped Zaferis patch the bull faunus up. It was not their best work but it was meant to be temporary. Till they reached camp and have sammy look after him. Zaferis lifted the unconscious man on to his shoulders in a fireman carry. Hopefully this would not agitate their all ready sloppy patch-up Job.
"Ready?" He asked Quill
"Ready when ever you are" she responded. With a nodded Zaferis stated to jog.

Thank you for reading all the way to the end. This is obviously not they end. there will be other parts to this but I hop you enjoyed it. More will being coming soon. (I hope)
now let me explain this here. John mactavish wearing a chocker is my jam so much so that I've need looking for fanfics about it (I have found zero) But I have seen plenty art of him wearing it.
So this is me beging for fanfics of ghost (or other members of 141) noticing or infatuated by the idea of soup wearing a chocker.
Vox is a resident of the gobland kingdom and probably one of the biggest of them all. He is surprisingly chill for a Goliath. Something that would anger a Goliath. He just shrugs off.
He is a one of the many builders in the empire that is employed because after all. In gobland 'safety is are number one priority! :) ' also the kingdom is contently growing.
Vox hammerhead tasks himself with the heaviest materials for faster work and for the fact that ever goblin deemed him as the crane. (and elevator if you like being picked up my him.)
Vox's origin is nothing special. He was born and raised on the mountain the goblins reside under. His hurd had a mostly calm life, aside from the occasional rock (the bird). Life was calm. Vox grow up and learned to hunter and fight. Though, for him, it did not feel right to take a life. Even if its was just a simple animal.
(Warning this is his full story! If you just want to read the basic of him. . . you all ready have. all you have to know is up there 🔼. Thank you and good bye✌️)
The hurd he lived with saw him as odd. As he would often tasked him self with things that the women of the hurd would do. Like basket weaving, cloth making, and gathering of fruits. No one pushed him to do male tasks. The had plenty of food and water so they could feed a couple more moths.
Years past and Vox had grow of age. it was also the moment that a goblin kingdom had sent a diplomat. Vox never fully new what the treaty was. only that she was there to make it with the goliath Hurd's and the kingdom that was under there feet.
Where she had exited the temporary hut. Vox followed her. He was of course one of the many curious, young goliaths that followed her to the out skirts of there camp. He, however was the only one who continued to followed her. No one stopped him as he followed her. He was an abnormal Goliath and if that's meant he would get himself killed. No one would stop him.
The diplomat must have always known he was there from the start because as soon as they where out of his Hurd territory. She turned around on her hog and demanded why he was following her. So he told her. It slipped out of his mouth like water.
"Im curious" he stated. She gave him a look.
"What?"
"What is your hurd like?" the goliath had move closer to the smaller species. His head tilted ever so slightly to the side. Like a dog.
"Your a strange one ain't you?" She muttered turning back around and continued on. She moved Quicker this time. A Gallup to her but to him it was a jog. And this went on for days. Galloping by day scavenging by night. he discovered the goblin kingdom my the full moon. He had lost the diplomat as soon as she entered the color full crowds of many things. And that were his life started in the kingdom of goblins. As a young and clueless goliath.
He had spent no more than a day there be for he discovered what work was. Turns out a city of small people could use a big guys like him. Day turned in to weeks and weeks turned into moths and moths, years. He got in to construction working. Witch was a good paying good and purchase his own home (one that would fit him). He even gained a new Hobby, Gardening! He knows what he wants and that's to live a simple life in a color full, never sleeping city.

Summary: Kath and the bad batch make there way to the mandalorian settlement to find a new ship for them.
Hello and welcome to chapter three and to what ever the names of this series is. . . yeah I don't know what to say other than enjoy and don't mind the spelling errors.
Part two is right below here. 🔽
-start-
Lula the stuff toka thank force was ok. It had only taken a few minutes to find it. It was under the console, laying on its side, like it was curling up and resting, safe from the world. Probably had slid under the console as they crashed. Picking up the plush kath made at a 'aha!' Sound.
"Now lest get you to your one yeah?" Kath said Tucking the plush safely away in her belt before crawling out of the hole she made To get in. Wrecker had practically squealed like a child. When presented with the well loved boll.
"Lula!" Wrecker cried scooping up the toka from Kath and crushed the doll in his large arms "your ok!" Omega has made her way out of the room she was staying in and clung to wreckers leg. the other one, the ones with the prosthetics, that she had yet to learn the names of. Waddled his way out of the room like he had yet to fix his legs but did not seamed to care. He seamed more concern in his team.
"Is the ship ok?" He asked, leaning heavily on the wall. Hunter purist his lips and shook his head
"Half of it was melted" he told his companion, who wilted at his words.
"Now what?" The pale man asked "we don't have enough to buy a new ship" Hunters eyes widened at that realization.
"Crap" there leader hissed out "I forgot about that!" Tech hummed looking down at his data pad before he started typing something on it. Wrecker looked confused.
"But Kath promise to take us to the settlement!" Wrecker bleated.
"Wrecker even if we can get in there. we don't have the money to buy a new ship" Hunter informed the giant clone, who wilted at the news.
"Dold of you to assume I'd let you go to day" Kath spoke up from where she stood, removed her hemet, she walked further in to her home, passing echo as she dose so "most of you are still healing from your little crash" she giggled a little bit as she disappeared in to a side room. a few minutes latter returning with a box of tools in her arms instead of her helmet.
"Especially you" Kath said pointed to echo "your look like your about to pass out" echo blinked he knew he was not looking his best but he would not say he looked like he was about to pass out if they wind blew his way. Kath did not seamed to acknowledge echo's attempts to wave her off as she grade him and guided him to a chare.
"Sit" she ordered echo. The others of his squad seemed just as surprised at this.
"The rest of you to" she stared not even looking up from her tools. The lessened, eventuality, all siting in there own chares in the living room. Ether watching kath as she checked over echo's prosthetic or talking quietly talking to each other on how to get a ship.
----*----
"Do got any ideas on how to get that ship of yours?" Kath asked this morning as she served breakfast to every one.
"we can do a few odd jobs at the settlement" Hunter said. Kath hummed giving Wrecker his meal, who immediately wolfed it down. Hunter winced at the site. He had not clue how his younger brother could eat that much and at that speed.
"Do you have time to do that?" Kath asked them from where she stood. "And don't forget they don't trust out siders"
"Well its the only thing we could think up of" tech said matter of factually shifting his goggles proudly. Though Kath had not clue what he was proud of.
"Kay..." She drawl, ridding a knuckle over her lip, thinking. After a long while of thinking she spoke.
"I could buy it for you"
"Were not a charity case" echo snapped immediately at her. She eased her hands up, surrendering.
"Not what I was thinking but ok" Kath muttered before specking louder. "look you need a ship to get out of here and I've got the money. You can pay me back latter for it" Hunter looked at her skeptically.
"And if we can't pay you back?" He asked
"A favor then, though I'm not sure if I'll ever call that in" she stated to them with a nod. Hunter looked back to his squad looking over them carefully. Tech was the first to nod. Then Echo. Wrecker hummed in agreement. Omega gave such a confident nodded Hunter could not stop a smile to form on this face.
"All right then this an agreement. If we cant pay for it a favor" Hunter stated. Kath nodded seemingly pleased with her self.
"Well head out soon then" Kath told them grading her helm. "The journey takes a few days on foot so get ready y'all" and with that Kath exited the room.
----*----
The journey to the settlement was uneventful. Kath had lead them around most of the dangers, tar pits, dangerous fana, and unstable ground. The most dangerous thing the ran in to was a particularly hungry plant and even then Kath took care of it quickly.
"Why are we going in to a cave?" Omega asked as they neared its entrance. Kath gave a laugh that sounded like a strang honk as she lowers her self carefully in to the cave.
"Because adiik they find it safer to live under ground" Kath said helping the others down in to the cave. Omegas brows furrowed.
"Them why don't you live with them if its safe?" Kath froze grading the attention hunter be for regaining her composure.
"I provide them with energy" Kath said moving further in to the steep and rocky cave. "That's why I'm not with them. Ax and I monitor the static storms and repair the rod's when needed."
It was quieted as they moved down the steep slop of the cave the only sound was the scuffle of shoes against rocks and the occasional falling rock. The slop slowly leveled out in to a dark tunnel that banked sharply to the left. Then after a while a slow turn to the right. The cave was where smooth no ragged or sharp edges tech nodded as he ran his fingers on the wall. The ground was covered in small round pedals some times a large rock would appear though the seamed as smooth as the pedals where.
"Is cave used to be a river" Tech blurted out suddenly to the others. Wrecker ground slumping forward, making them child on this shoulder giggle, omega at some point had made her way on Wreckers shoulders. Echo just hummed from beside Wrecker and hunter ,who was beside Kath, made no notion that he hurd more focused of what was in front of him. Kath on the other hand glanced back at him a small smile pulled at the edge of her lips.
"What makes you was that?" She asked.
"Nooo" Wrecker wined childishly obviously not keen on the info bump that was about to happen. Tech smiled adjusting his goggles to sit more comfortably on this face.
"Well first of all" he started to name all the features of the cave that would make it an umber water river. Then the slipped in to an explanation on how his could have been made. Then at some point he started to talk about anything that was geography. No one complained ad out the info dump ,except Wrecker he wined every so often that its was going to make his head hurt, It filled the erey silents the cave had some how had made. It may have been the echos or how every thing was slick and slippery and the cold that nipped at your ears.
When Tech got to how volcanos worked Kath made a motion to quite down. Instead of quiting down tech stopped specking.
"What is it?" He asked looking at Hunter and Kath. Before Kath could answer Hunter spoke.
"The settlement is up a head" Kath gave Hunter a look but nodded.
"Yes the next turn the settlement will be visible" she told them.
Their foot steps quieted as they rounded the curve and true to her word they saw the settlement. The cave that they where in opened up on to a large cavern that was once an under water lake. There path lead down to the they settlement. Pedals turned to boulders and a flat surface turned in to a beep slop. Similar to the entrance the had enters from.
"Do they know were here?" Omega watched as the lights to the houses slowly turned on one by one.
"Yes" Kath said with absolute certainty as she stared at the fingers that slowly exited the buildings "these are Manbalorians after all" with that she headed down the slop. The others quickly followed after her.
Some one was waiting for them it the bottom of the slop. A Manbalorain that had green armer and they did not loomed pleased. Armed crossed and foot impatiently taping the ground. Kath ignored him. With the last part of the slop she was able to slide past the mando and started walking to the settlement. The bad batch followed her.
"Oh no you don't!" Snapped the mando rushing to get in front of them. That's when Kathy finally stopped and acknowledged the warrior.
"Why have you draught these strangers to are home aruetii!" The manbo spit the last word at Kath. If she was affected by the words she did not show it.
"The need a ship and they are here" she told the other, who only sputtered and growled something in his mother tough. Kath snarled something back that him that mabe the green mando get in to the others space.
"Your want to say that again aruetii?" The green MandalorIan snarled lowly.
"Oh I'm sorry I thought you could handel it in are mother tough" Kath sneered at the mando closing the distance between the two.
"You little-"
"That's enough!" A giant Mandalorian shoved his way in between he was bigger than Wrecker, but he was not the one that spoke. It was the old man that spoke. The was hunched over his cane and slowly shuffling his way over the them. Another Mandalorian was walking close to the elderly man and a not so subtle hand was hovering under the elderly's arm.
"Ezekiel what have I told you about messing with Katharine?" The old man grumbled, finally stopping in front of them.
"But she is a aruetii!" Th- Ezekiel barked, he was clearly not pleased by the intrusion. The elder gave him a harsh look.
"Just because she lives out side of are home dose not mean she's an outsider" Ezekiel shrunk back and away from Kath. The elderly man turn towards them and smiles gently.
"Katharine! How have you been?" He beamed waddling his way over to her, with his arms stretch out. The mando next to him seamed to have goten a heart attack from the elders reaction as the scrambled after him. picking up this cane as they do so.
"Ba'buir things have been going all right" Kath greets warmly, gently hugging the elderly man before releasing him and waving over the bad batch. "Ba'buir I wish I come here under my own volition but some of my friends need help"
The old man seemed to deflate at those words
"All right my dear" he nodded soulfully " let us talk some place warmer" he waved them to follow stopping after a few shaky steps. He stopped and looked around murmuring something about this cane. The mando that was quietly and patiently waiting at his side handed over the his cane.
"Oh thanks you dear" the Mandalorian nodded to the elders thanks and stayed by his side as they walk towards the building. Omega ,who was still on top of Wreckers shoulders, asked not so quietly.
"Ba'buir? It that this name?"
"No." Kath shook her head band slowed down her walk so she was close to Omega and Wrecker "Ba'buir is a title"
"Ooh" Omega gasped but immediately pause and made a face like she ate a lemon "a title for what?"
"Being a grandfather" Kath told her. Omega gave her a look that mabe her laugh "Mandalorains see grandfather or Ba'buir as a title just like how you may see sargent or boss as a title."
"So it hase to be earned?" Omega asked tilting her head to the side.
"I suppose yes" Kath hummed "my Ba'buir got it by just being him, Loving and kind. Every one here by now calls him Ba'buir"
----*----
Ba'buir and Kath as well as omegas brothers talked for hours on the ship that they needed. Patently it was not a easy as buying one and leaving. The still needed enough ship for every one to leave, in case of and emergency. At some point they had all left to the ship yard were omega was not allowed to be in. So she was left here waiting with Echo for her brothers to return.
"How long have they been gone for?" Ground Omega as she flopped back down on to her chare.
"Its only been a few minutes Omega they won't be back for a while" Echo told her scrolling throw a bata pad.
"Easy for you to say you have that data pad" she pouted crossing her arms over her chest. Echo only hummed and continued on with what he was doing. Slowly Omega stopped with her pouting and slipped off her chare walking over to Echo's.
"What are you reading?" She asked as slinked in to her brothers lap.
"Im not sure" Echo answer her "before the republic fell. I always found my self reading the update reg books in my free time" Omega scrunched up here face as she tried to read the complicated and blurring words.
"That's weird." Omega mumbled still trying to read the page he was on. Echo laugh yes it was weird he supposed, if he thought of it from an outsiders perspective. He could guess why he like to read that kind of stuff. It was probably because of how it was written. All the complicated words and rules that kept them in check, challenge him. it made him feel smart when he was a cadet. Domino squad just berated him for being odd and so ridged but the reg manual gave him a strang since of peace and closure, his brother never gave him. Not till after they succeeded there last test even then it was not much (then it was only fives and him). He shook his head focusing back on Omega. He did not need to think like right know.
"How about you try something easier?" Echo asked bookmarking the page and opening another.
"Can I pick?" She asked. She craned her head back form her eyes to meet his.
"Yes you can pick" Echo confirmed "want to read it out loud?"
"yes!" She said, practically vibrating his his lap. When his squad got back it had been several books later and a very tired Omega in his lap.
"Did you find anything?" Echo asked quietly. Hunter nodded.
"Yes is enough for us"
"Two rooms for us and a refresher" Tech told Echo.
"Even a small kitchen!" Wrecker boomed. Echo cringed as Omega jumped. Her head snapped up and looked around. she perked up a she notes the others.
"Your guy s are back!" She squealed, jumping off of Echos lap and leached on to Hunters leg. Wrecker shrunk in to his self just realizing she had fell a sleep.
"Oh sorry meg" Wrecker mumbled
"Its ok!" Omega chirped bounding over to hug his leg "I wanted to be awake when you guys came back anyway!"
"Oh ok" Wrecker said a bit dumbfounded as he pick up Omega.
"Where's Kath?" Omega asked looking past her brothers.
"She's helping with stocking the ship full of supply" Hunter informed her.
"Witch was unnecessary of them to do" tech huffed " but a welcomed one"
"Why are they doing that?" Omega questioned
"Turns out they all have a serious grudge against the imperial empire" Hunter said with a shrug.
"Oh" Omega uttered slumping against her giant brother.
----*----
"Hop to see you again in better circumstances" Kath told as the made the last preparations. Hunter smiled as he watch his brothers get ready in the cockpit.
"Don't worry will come back to pay off are debt with you" hunter reassured. Kathy huffed
"Gods know here I thought you'd just come to see me" Hunter rolled his eyes, Crosshair used enough sarcasm for him to recognize it anywhere.
"All right we can come just to see you to" Hunter mussed
"Oh why thank you sire. For you to blessing me with your presence" Kath said with a sarcastic bow.
"Oh of course" Hunter said just as sarcastically. It was strang to her sarcasm to be use this way. Crosshair used it in a much more negative manner. Kath burst out in a fit of laughter, as she eased from her bow.
"Thank you for that" she giggled "not many people run with my sarcasm like that" Hunter shrugged.
"Its not much one of my brothers use sarcasm" Kath hummed with a nod.
"Still thanks for that" she said "my I ask as to were you heading next?"
"Were work is" Hunter answered vaguely.
"Mercenary?"
"Guess you cloud say that" Hunter implied. Kathy nodded and patted him on this shoulder.
"Explains why the pimps hate yea" Kath noted "safe travels to you my friend" with that she left. Disappearing in to the shadows of the cavern. When Hunter turned back to the others they where looking at him to see if he was ready to leave clearly not caring if they where staring at him. He nodded and closed the ramp and as simple as that they left.
-end?-
