Lights on Yavin 4

This is for the Kalluzeb Reverse Bang! @kalluzebminibang

Art is by the talented @drunkenmantis! Go check out their piece~

Summary: Kallus and Garazeb finally spend some quality time together on Yavin 4 after the Battle of Atollon. Zeb gets called away for multiple missions in a row, and what does Kallus do about it?

Pine like a love-sick teenager, of course.

Kallus knew it wouldn’t be easy, openly joining the Rebellion. He had given more than a decade of his life to the Empire, and just because he was a spy for the Rebellion for a year doesn’t mean people have forgotten his origins.

The higher-ups of the Rebellion had interviewed him for any information they thought was valuable to the cause. Clearance codes, secret bases, anything he could remember. Oh, and did he mention the lie detector that they strapped to his chest? Because that was very efficient and smart of them, honestly. He was impressed, especially by their intelligence director, General Davits Draven. He was the one who strapped the machine to him, the one asking the most questions about his intel, the one pressing him more and more and more until he was ready to pull his hair out.

General Draven was… not cruel, really. Just extremely wary of him.

Which is wonderful for the Rebellion, but couldn’t they at least give him some bacta gel for his leg? They kept him in “debriefing” for a few more hours after that, and by the time he was released, he was utterly exhausted. All he wanted to do was get some bacta on his leg, some food in his stomach, and then pass out for an entire year.

As he walked out of the meeting room, ready to find the medical tent, or room, or whatever, he spotted the most unexpected person waiting for him.

Zeb stood against a stack of crates, obviously pretending to inspect his bo-rifle. As soon as the door opened, he looked up and his eyes immediately landed on him. His heart skipped a beat as Zeb walked over to him.

“Finally freeing you, eh? What do you say we head to medbay and then we can head back to the Ghost?”

“You must have read my mind, because that’s exactly what I was thinking. Lead the way?”

Zeb grabbed his hand gently (no, he is most definitely not blushing, thank you very much), and led him through the winding passages of the enormous temple that the Rebels had made their base. There were so many twists and turns, it was hard to keep track. Strategically sound, in his opinion. If anyone infiltrated the base, they would be hard pressed to find the most vulnerable people on base.

The medic who attended him was kind, but exhausted, since they were still looking over other victims of Atollon. He just asked for some bacta, but the medic brushed him off and began a full medical examination of him.

Zeb stood out of the way, but he was always in the corner of his eye as the medic poked and prodded and slathered in bacta and his leg set in a cast. Then he was told not to put too much pressure on it, come back in a few days to get it removed, and was sent off with Zeb to the Ghost.

He spent his recovery aboard the Ghost, while everyone recovered from the Battle of Atollon. Most of that time was spent in Zeb’s room, the galley, or the cockpit with Hera.

Kallus got to know the remaining members of the Spectres as well as he could in the week that he spent recovering, and in return, allowed the walls around his heart crack just a little bit.

He learned that Hera liked her caf with a splash of milk and a pound of sugar. She found and repaired Chopper herself during the Clone Wars. She liked to hum to herself while doing repairs on the Ghost. She’s not quite forgiven him for his time in the Empire, but he didn’t expect her to.

He learned that Rex, one of the few clones left in the fight against the Empire, was great at teaching. He had spent his time on Atollon running drills and such with new and old members. He was friends with, or at least knew of, everyone who came from Atollon. He spent his spare time talking with those two clones from Seelos on a secure channel.

And Zeb.

During his time as both an ISB agent and Fulcrum in the Empire, he had basically memorized Zeb’s file and could recite it backwards. But here on the Ghost, with Zeb taking care of him, he found he had known nothing about the Lasat.

Sabine may be the artist of the group, but Zeb could make a fair number of trinkets and other items. He had made custom chronometers for everyone. He made most of the silverware and utensils onboard. He had programmed their dejarik table.

Zeb was attentive to him, especially during the first few days of his recovery. He assisted with changing his bandages around his ribs and made sure he never had to walk too far.

Zeb didn’t linger on unimportant things. Sure, the obvious thing was Lasan, but like he had said on Bahryn, it was behind him, and he’s moved on. The next thing was Atollon. Zeb was just glad that Kallus was here now, and that the majority of Atollon’s personnel were now of Yavin 4.

Zeb worried a lot. Not about little things, about things that mattered. Do they have enough supplies, rations, ammo, and the other essentials? What was the Empire’s next move? Were Kanan, Ezra, and Sabine alright? They should have checked in by now.

Zeb was funny. They spent their final rest day in the common room, Kallus plunged himself into any intel that the Rebellion could throw at him before he was assigned an official position. He sat at the dejarik table while Zeb and Rex were neck deep in a game, throwing snippy remarks at each other. Kallus occasionally tuned in and chuckled along with them, causing the two to stare at him the first couple it happened. He stared intensely at his datapad, and tried his best to ignore the reaction of his laugh. But every time it happened after, Zeb grinned fiercely at him.

On Kallus’ last night aboard the Ghost, he and Zeb were in the common room, eating one last meal together before he was assigned to a section within Rebel Intelligence. Everyone else was off doing other things to prepare for their first mission off of Yavin 4, but Hera had given Zeb the night off, but they knew it was so that they could spend time together. Who knows when is the next time their schedules will sync up and they can sit like this again.

“Hey, up for a little hike?” Zeb asked, standing up after finishing up his portion.

Kallus blinked, before shoving the rest of his ration into his mouth and standing up from the table. “Of course, I am. Where to?”

Zeb grinned and motioned for him to follow him off the Ghost. The two of them disembark and Zeb walks straight into the jungle. Kallus hesitates at the edge. “Zeb?”

“What? Scared of the dark?”

Kallus smirked, thinking back to the ice cave. “Of course not. But we don’t know what lives in this jungle. It could be dangerous.”

“Kallus. Do you trust me?” Zeb comes back to the edge of the forest, and holds a hand out to him.

Kallus stares at the extended hand, takes a deep breath, and takes hold. “More than anyone else.”

Zeb leads Kallus into the darkness for a few minutes before they come to the base of a smaller, more hidden temple, similar to the one the Rebel base is now in. The pair follow the base a little bit before Zeb boosts himself up onto a ledge not far from the ground, helping Kallus climb up and together, they scale the side of the temple until they are above the treeline.

“Yer leg alright?” Zeb asked, steadying him on the last step, where it led to a platform covered in leaves and moss. It seemed like it’s been a while since anyone has been up here.

“Yes, it’s fine, I just need to sit for a bit.” Kallus replied, rubbing it a little, following Zeb over to a small rock, and settled there, before turning out to face the night sky.

“Oh wow…” He breathed in awe.

It was a completely clear night. Millions of stars sparkled behind the single ring of Yavin 4, framing a moon off in the distance perfectly. Down below, he could see the lights of the main temple, housing the largest Rebel cell currently active.

Emotion swelled in his chest. “How did you find this place?”

“Went to clear my head that first night we were here. The brass kept ya so long, I was getting antsy. So I just… wandered and found this place. Wanted ta show you before we left tomorrow.”

Kallus felt tears begin to build behind his eyes, but he refused to cry, to show weakness in front of his closest friend. “Thank you, Zeb. This is a gift I couldn’t have hoped for.”

“Any time, Kal. Any time.”

My 2021 Summer Reversebang fic is finally completed, I hope you enjoy @drunkenmantis! I look forward to seeing the art you inspired me with shared so everyone can see it! Read it Here!

[laurenmm62017]

I've looked at this piece pretty much every day for two months and I'm still in love with it!

The second artwork i made for the @kalluzebminibang

And this time it was @laurenmm62017 who wrote this fanfiction inspired by it

Please go and check it out 💖

[gettiregretti]

Zeb finds himself once again in the fighting pits that he’d escaped from before he joined the Spectres, trapped battling other people ensnared in the machine that is the Arena. Kallus is the only person with connections high -and sordid- enough to get him out before Zeb has a match he can’t win. But Kallus has to do that without the Empire realising their tool is working against them.

This is my piece for the Kalluzeb reverse bang. The general idea is outlined above, but I don’t know where my writer, Snapadaps, has gone with it so I’m reeeeally excited to read the matching work! I will link their piece when they go public with it 💖

[solrika]

Does anyone know if there’s plans for another Big Bang/Reverse Bang/Mini Bang in the kalluzeb fandom this year?

Tagging the people I think were involved in planning last year (no pressure, just figured you may have info): @hixystix @kuraithefox @sempaiko

[chaoticgoodcatgirl-art]

The Kalluzeb reverse bang is here! I’m not super comfortable drawing these characters yet, but it was fun to participate in a larger event.

Please check out @captainlilja’s fanfic inspired by this drawing here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/33412840

Surprise - we're having an event this summer!

Summer 2021 will be the first Kalluzeb Reverse Bang!

I'm sure you have some questions. Here are three answers:

What is a Reverse Bang?

A reverse bang is like a big or mini bang, but backwards.  Artists create a piece first and then writers pick the image they’d like to create a story about!

What kind of art counts?

Any sort of art that a story can be derived from - traditional art, digital art, dioramas, playlists, cross-stitching, etc.  Because of the way the Bang works, art such as podfics will not be accepted.

Does my art have to be finished on the art due date?

Your art should be mostly finished by this date, or at least complete enough that an author can derive a story from it. It won't be required to be finished until posting begins!

Here is the basic schedule for the 2021 Kalluzeb Reverse Bang!  Check in dates will be added later.

Sign-Ups:  May 1-15, 2021

Art Due Date:  June 1, 2021

Writer Claims Open:  June 2, 2021

Posting:  Aug 22-Sept 5, 2021

All this information is also available on the Mini-Bang tumblr page - you'll find them under the "pages" drop-down menu. They will be kept updated as new questions are asked or the check-in dates are set.

Any other questions?  Submit them as an ask or message the mod directly!

*I am aware that the sign-ups coincide with the Kalluzeb Appreciation Week event, but since no work is due in that period - just a Google form - hopefully that won't be an issue!

[artfulfanfic]

Hi! I wrote a thing! It was for the Kalluzeb Reverse Bang @kalluzebminibang.  The last chapter dropped today.

Huge shout out to @hixystix for arranging the event! I got lucky enough to be able to use this amazing piece by @sempaiko for inspiration.

This fic marks the first time in years that I actually spent some time to just write. It was glorious. I’m thinking I should make some kind of habit of it just to keep kicking some of the rust off of my creative joints.

In the meantime, check out what I wrote!
