#fives lives

The shorts were standard issue 🤭

In a world where Fives survived

when ur inconsiderate genetic duplicates fake a few deaths and kill a Sith w/out you

(you are a million other genetic duplicates)

He’ll sometimes go days without sleeping, one time he went a full week before fainting randomly in a hallway. It’s something he’s built up due to having back to back missions and assignments from senators and the Chancellor alike that gave him next to nothing in time for himself.

He would usually use that time to either grab a ration bar, and eat a few small bites of it, or drink a cup of water just to have five cups of caf immediately after.

So, basically he never slept unless one of the other commanders, most likely Thorn, and the medics forced him go to sleep, or when he faints randomly (it’s usually the last one).

Fives was very quick to pick up on this after Fox fainted one day, and also from the very noticeable eye bags under his eyes, and immediately makes it his personal mission to make this dimwit actually get enough sleep so he actually functions properly.

He has two ways of doing this:

1) Knocking him out

This was the method he used to use in the beginning (he absolutely does not use it now) because the last time he did he ended up with a broken arm and a black eye.

2) Trapping him on the bed

After some time, and with a desperate need to find a new way to get him his time loop partner to sleep so he stops fainting everywhere, he learned that if he were to cuddle with said commander, 9.9999/10 the commander would stay for not wanting to wake Fives up.

So, every time Fox is laying down, Fives goes over, lays flat on top of him so he can barely move his limbs, and puts his skill of fake sleeping he’s essentially mastered over the years to good use. (Especially since he does actually fall asleep pretty fast so it’s not like it’s obvious anyway.)

They both have a weak spot for Glitch, so naturally Fives abuses this against Fox also to get him to sleep as well. You wouldn’t want to  disturb the obviously very eepy child who went to you specifically because they trust and love you a lot, would you?

(It works really well)

And boom, now you have an actually somewhat functioning Fox that actually sleeps a few hours a day.
