among a sea of blue and white soldiers , kip feels like the odd one out in his square scout trooper helmet and armor ( with only tints of purple ) . he tries desperately not to give off the awkward , awe - struck energy he had upon his first meeting with rex . and yet he sits stiffly upon a bench while others of the 501st go about preparing for their mission .

in a last ditch attempt to ease himself into his normality , kip jokes aloud ( though quiet enough in case someone could find it odd ) , ❛ man , when they said be there or be square -- guess scout troopers said be square . ❜  

@trcopers​ asked:   * smooches the wife * / from bly 🥺

she can’t seem to pull herself away.   she doesn’t want to either.   after all this time,  it never did get any easier  --  but that was how their lives had panned out to be.   always on the field of battle,  only those very few,  fleeting moments of rest.   they’ve both got their arms slung around one another.   bly had pulled her close once they’d excused themselves and were finally alone.    aayla catches herself time and again,  thinking about how their lives would have been if not for the war  --  where they would have been,   the family that could have been.  ...  but only to have same dreams shattered ! at the realization that--  if not for the war,     they would have never met.                                  .....            

❝ we need to talk, ❞     her voice is full of concern but she tries her hardest to hide it.  the troopers on the bridge looked up at her briefly before they all returned to their own work.  aayla nodded towards the magnetic doors.  there’s a heavy breath before she steps out and she made her way to a secluded quarter where they could talk in private.   she waits until he follows along and enters after her.  the doors close heavily behind him,  and it suddenly feels to her as though the entire room is spinning.    she’s nervous.    for a moment there,  she’s at a loss of words.  it’s so unlike her to be like this,  aayla’s usually always so strong  &  confident,  but now,  things are different.    the news she has to tell him is probably bigger than anything she’s ever had to tell anyone.        the jedi knows she has to sort of make this quick,  if they’re gone for too long,  someone might start asking questions.

her gaze is diverted downwards,  she looks almost sorry.   a hand is raised to briefly,  nervously,  scratch her lekku.  but then it hits her,  maybe she should just tell him flat out.  there’s so many things,  so many follow - up questions,  so many things they have to talk about  --  but for now,  she has to tell him.          aayla finally looks up at bly  --  &  for a second she just stands there,  she’s taking a second to appreciate the view of him.  

finally she lifts her hands to rest them on her stomach,   &   she just.  ...  smiled.     ❝      bly.      ❞     aayla said,  no titles,  no ranks.  it’s not a moment for that  --  this is so personal.  it’s their moment.

                    ❝ i’m pregnant. ... ❞

@trcopers​ asked:     alright babe, have a nice day and kick some clanker ass. I love you xoxo

❝ when we first met, ... ❞  she trailed off,  thinking back to when they did.        oh, how it seemed like a simpler time.  even with the war still around them  --  it was the sole reason that they even got to know each other.  ...  and yet,  now it seemed like there was nothing else in the galaxy but war.  these dark times only seemed to cloud their love more  &  more for each day.  &  yet there she is,  looking at him,  and for just a quiet moment it seems like there’s nothing else but him.     ... just for a moment.     ❝ i never thought that i would fall. ❞

@trcopers​ asked:     I’m sorry for hurting you. / from Bly.... sad/cute shippy sentences:   meme.

they have been through everything together.  the two of them,  always by each others side.  the general  &  her commander.     aayla is sitting on a fallen tree trunk,  tending to her own wounds,  alone.   when they finally have a moment to rest,  she allows her troopers some privacy.       that was until bly had approached her  --  she doesn’t know what came over her,  but she winced a little as he knelt down before her.  hazel hues observed him as he inspected her wounds.   ❝ i’m fine, commander. ❞   snarled ! it’s spoken through gritted teeth,  &  came out a lot harsher than she had intended.   cue a deep sigh,  &  a gentle shake on her head.  ❝ --i’m sorry, i. ... i didn’t-- ❞  the otherwise so confident young jedi master,  now finds herself speechless.  as younger she tended to be impulsive,  something she thought she’d outgrown.      but what everyone has a habit of forgetting is-----  aayla is still young.  albeit it had been moments since she was granted the rank of master  &  even knighted,  everyone including herself,  seemed to forget she was not yet that old.    feelings,  emotions  --  had always driven her.                 aayla wasn’t gonna mention what happened on the battlefield earlier.   they’d been fighting for what seemed like days now.  the battle droids just kept coming, and coming---  now was the first spare moment they’d had since they had arrived on felucia.  and even now,  there was no way of knowing if they were safe.   felucia was a dangerous planet  ---  dangerous beasts and flesh - eating diseases were only a few of their concerns.          the bacta patch is pressed firmly to her side as she finishes up,  offering him a weakened attempt at a smile.  she made sure they were alone first before aayla gently let her hand fall atop of his on her knee.  it’s those few,  fleeting moments.  that’s all they ever seem to have.     &  even after everything,  𝚑𝚎𝚛 𝚏𝚎𝚎𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚜 𝚏𝚘𝚛 𝚑𝚒𝚖 𝚗𝚎𝚟𝚎𝚛 𝚌𝚑𝚊𝚗𝚐𝚎𝚍.
