Y’all I found my first impression notes of the clones
This is so cute, oh and I had some for Domino Squad too but I lost them boohoohoo
Captain Rex
Captain of the 501st
Looks scary and badass but is actually chill, like he’ll just laugh drinking clones off and join them (if that does not compromise them in any way of course)
Excellent leadership, beloved by his men because yeah
Loyal but with time learned to think by himself and not blindly follow orders, so yeah smart boi
Good at basically everything save flying
Blonde
Close to Ahsoka
Awkward with hugs and babies and probably comforting, will not hesitate to kick ass if necessary
Commander Cody
Commander of 212th Attack Batallion
Basically Obi but as a clone
Older than Rex
More like planner while Rex is unorthodox and more creative
ARC Trooper Fives
Best friend is Echo, bless those two seriously I love them
Cares a whole lot about his fellow clone brothers
Goes from being smooth af to being a clumsy bean, thanks Jango daddy
His expressions bro
ARC Trooper Echo
Nerd, nerd, nerd
Likes to read rule books
Repeats orders
Was supposed to be dead but isn’t
Commander Wolffe
104th AKA Wolfpack, hates the recon missions he goes on
Grumpy about stuff, but he lost his eye to Ventress so I think we can all understand that
Secretly a grumpy cuddle bear
Pretty fucking badass if I do say so myself
Dogma
Loyal, to the point he used to blindly follow orders
“If found, return to Tup”
Sneers a lot because you’re a piece of shit
Tup
A bit rebellious, young
“I am Tup”
Sweet baby of the group but can be a little devil too
Hardcase
Hyperactive (leak in growth chamber)
Bit rash
Ended up sacrificing himself to succeed a secret mission
Loves guns
Is adorable
Wonderful smile, always grinning seriously this guy doesn’t get angry
Bald just for his badass tattoo
“Let me at ‘em!” Doesn’t give a damn about the odds let him play with the clankers
Jesse
Helped Fives and Hardcase during the secret mission, meaning not afraid to break the rules from time to time
Voice that willturning you into puddin’
Probably always drags alcohol with him
Looks good and leans on stuff
Kix
Medic for the 501th
Will put up a fight but is a sweet child that just loves his brothers
There isn’t thinking, not for at least nine hours.
Entire thing is categorized in still images, like a shitty security holorecorder that itsn’t powerful enough to handle more frames. Echo is running toward the ship. It explodes. Echo’s helmet is on the ground and they’re moving.
There’s a funeral that isn’t Echo’s. Then Fives is back on the Resolute running those four images over and over in his mind, waiting in line at the mess hall. He tries to get his food from the auto-server and it pauses, makes the same whirring noise while it calculates the order and something bumps around inside it.
Fives expects the same comment Echo always gives: “someone should get maintenance on that”.
But it doesn’t come and that’s when it hits him that Echo’s gone. The blood rushing in his ears is too loud, drowns out the sound of his tray hitting the ground. Doors, halls, bulkheads fly by. He can’t see anything but Echo’s helmet and the Jedi’s funeral, chasing each other like there’s some sick joke he’s missing but doesn’t get.
His bucket’s off and slams into the wall adjacent to the door. There’s three men in the barracks and none of them bothers to ask what’s wrong. They all know.
Fives can’t speak, not yet. He doesn’t talk for a long time–then he breaks and even that’s caught in a series of stills that are seared into his mind the way Echo’s burnt, mangled helmet is.
AU where Star Wars takes place in a slightly kinder universe and Fives is still alive when they find Echo – cue a very emotional reunion and also me crying because clone brothers oh god
alternatively, some kind of post-death reunion in the Force-afterlife/manda/~clone heaven~. but that’s sadder so let’s not
and I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
I’m pretty sure I got this question like a year ago too and forgot to ever answer it, oops. Anyway: It generally ends in shouting, as is tradition. Other common features:
Cody insists on being banker. No one ever really challenges this.
Rex is surprisingly terrible. Like you might think he’d do okay, but somehow he always ends up losing spectacularly. And then gets passive-aggressively pissy about how the game is “boring/rigged anyway.”
Jesse always ends up in jail.
Kix really likes playing as the top hat, and is not above using emotional manipulation to secure it.
Fives brings the hype and takes big risks. Sometimes they pay out, sometimes they bite him in the ass. Either way, he’s yelling about it.
Echo has encyclopedic knowledge of the rules. This is good in that everyone agrees to defer to him for interpretation and enforcement. But it’s also bad because it makes him resistant to “house rules.” He also tries to insist on auctions, which others prefer to ditch since they slow the game down.
Tup is gullible and lost a lot when he was younger, but eventually becomes a dark horse. He’s a sneaky strategist and not as rambunctious as some of the others, so it’s easy to forget to keep an eye on him. But then BAM, he has all your money.
