Rex tired of Anakin being late to mission briefings

(Rebels! Thranto AU) (Pre-Thranto)

Eli: So, what’s Thrawn's type?

Rex: Brown eyes, kind, oblivious, good sense of humor, animal lover.

Eli: Sounds kind of like me. Too bad we’re just friends.

Rex: Did I mention oblivious?

Eli: Yeah, why?

Rex: Okay, just making sure.

[themistymountainscold]

rex: what are you two arguing about this time?

jesse: he keeps using common phrases incorrectly!

hardcase: cry me a table, jesse.

[brittababbles]

Yes Rex is the most tired, but so is the rest of his unit. Do you ever think that one day he just snaps and…?

Fives, Echo, Jesse, Hardcase… even Kix, your captain has been pushed past his limit. This is how you learn that your actions have consequences.

(Brought to you by the “Rex is just as much a problem child as the rest of the 501st” belief system)

Falls:Hey, captain! You will not believe what the idiot squad did!

Lix:I see you picked up another stray rexter

Rex:Shut it, he is Kix's stray, not mine, plus your just as bad....I'm also not a jedi kriffer

Lix:*kicks the back of his knee* Unlike you, I don't adopt every shiny I see, and again, she is hot and can beat my ass soooo

Falls:Oh! Captain Lix, right? One of yours was also involved

Lix:dammit....I swear if it was Whiteout....

Rex deserves a raise. Rex deserves to be paid. Please pay him.

giving my fav bois some sleep

Wrecker: I had a dream that you were a bottle of mustard, and I was ketchup. Which is weird, cause normally you're mayonnaise in my dreams. Why do you suppose that is?

Rex, wondering what he was thinking taking a night watch shift with Wrecker: That's something you should ask Echo.

So, I was just re-watching the Bad Batch intro arc of the Clone Wars, and a thought struck me.

When Anakin, Rex, Echo, and the Batch are trapped on that pipe, Anakin (sarcastically) asks if anyone has a brilliant idea for an escape attempt . . . and then Tech pipes up that he does have a brilliant idea (thank you so much for asking, General Skywalker). And it turns out that Tech’s idea is completely batshit (ha!) nuts and Utter Ludicrous (TM).

Like, Anakin’s just standing there, clearly thinking, “Wait, that was an option? Flying out on these lizard creatures was so far done on the list of possible solutions that I didn’t even consider it . . . and I’m always involved in coming up with the Ridiculous Plans (To Succeed). This is crazy, even for me.”

And then I realized — Tech just out-Anakin-Skywalker-ed Anakin Skywalker. He surprised the guy who is known across the galaxy as being the hero without fear. Anakin got a taste of what it’s like to deal with his improvisations and plans that shouldn’t work (but somehow do).

I really hope he had a moment of clarity and self-reflection, where he thought, “Oh, so this is what that feels like. Obi-Wan was right. Dealing with someone who has a penchant for Ridiculous Plans is stressful!”

And perhaps, Obi-Wan felt an overwhelming sense of satisfaction back on Anaxes when Anakin’s realization rippled back to him through the Force.

Has Ben's habit of casual flirting caused any problems for him or the team?

Probably not as much as his casual flexing with Omnitrix tbh xD Which is basically flirting for this guy!

Though admittingly HoM Ben is not as flirty as it might seem at first. As he grew up, it became, as you said, a habit - more of a part of his heroic/public persona that he developed after becoming a hero celebrity across the (alien part of) universe.

It tends to make people (especially those who know him by his reputation first) feel easier around him and/or underestimate him if he is just some silly guy who flirts. (I mean he is silly guy who casually flirts, but he is also just a dude and so much more, as we all know.)

There were a few instances when it brought trouble, but also sometimes it helped them out too. But, let's just say that HoMies tend to look out for Ben not to say something unfortunate whenever he tends to be too friendly.

Actually there is another casual flirter in their friend group that brings almost as much trouble as Ben - it's Jake! Some of his casually flirty/overly friendly behaviour can be attributed to him becoming an American Dragon in his early teens (he really enjoyed his newfound cool dragon powers and popularity amongst magical folk), and some of it is just his personality (his behaviour was incredibly cringy at times when he was younger, but as he matured, it changed into something a little bit more charming).

When those two are on a mission together, others have to work overtime to keep an eye on them.

Which is ironic, because I 100% headcanon almost all of the HoMies masters of accidental rizz: they make people like them just by being themselves lol.

CloneTok

Cody: everyone stitch this with the most messed up war crime your general has committed right in front of you I’ll start; there was this time with a tube sock and a bottle of bleach, story started on Tenoo-

Rex: Oh, nah your General has done WAY worse than that.

Cody: Yes but this one was so out of pocket and messed up on a personal level istg he concocted this one just to watch the world burn-

Wolffe: Um??? My general has never committed a warcrime around me????

Cody: *glares at him for daring to speak in his presence* Did anyone ask you?

Wolffe: technically you did.

Cody: technically you should have been eaten in the decanting tank-

Wolffe: YOURE JUST MAD IM BABEY AND YOURE GROUCHY!!

Cody: I LIKE BEING GROUCHY YOU LITTLE PIMPLE!

Rex: *steals the comm while they fight to the death in the background* Sorry about them, 17 says they’ve been threatening to end the other since before they could talk. He’s got baby videos of them beating each other up before they could walk, it’s so cute. Sometimes he watches them and cries when drunk.

Cody: *pulling hair*

Wolffe: *trying to bite through Cody’s gloves*

[themistymountainscold]

ahsoka: do you guys think anything is actually perfect?

cody, looking at obi-wan: yeah.

rex, looking at fives and echo trying to fit light bulbs in their mouths: ...i think perfection is a false concept.

Shadowing Assessments

Cody, sitting down at midmeal with Rex to check up on current affairs: Hey Rex, how are you holding-- Rex, glancing at Cody looking all kinds of disheveled and tired to the bone: Hey Codes... Cody, shocked by his little brother's state: Stars, what the heck happened to you?! Rex, sighing: You know how the Jedi Council decided to temporarily divide the 105th into squads and send them off to shadow other battalions? Cody: Yes? It's to assess their capability to work with other Jedi, since we couldn't be sure they would trust the generals after what Krell put them through. Rex: And you know how the 501st took on their veteran troopers as a squad, because we thought we might have a better chance at connecting with them? Cody: Yes, I remember you being very adamant about it when we were getting squads assigned... Are they not adapting to the new arrangements? Rex, hiding his face in his hands and groaning loudly: That's... One way of putting it... -glancing over to the other corner of the mess hall- Cody, looks as well and gawks at what appears to be a full on brawl between 3 members of the 105th and 3 others of the 501st: What is going on over there?! Rex: So, it turns out that the Jedi were right to suspect Krell's men aren't overly cooperative. They just didn't realize to what extent and, stupidly, neither did we... Cody: Meaning? Rex: Cody, they don't trust anyone. Not even vode. And those who do usually stick to tiny groups. Which means, anything and everything is seen as either a threat or a challenge for dominance. Cody, visibly confused and concerned: D-Dominance? Rex: Krell had a twisted system of some sort. If I got it right then I think you had to earn amenities under him by gaining favor. This means food, sleep, medical treatment and equipment weren't readily given to them unless they pleased Krell in some way. Which means the 105th had to compete with each other at literally everything to earn what little a clone should have available to them... Cody, repulsed by what he's hearing: That's disgusting. And barbaric. How did no one notice this?! Rex: I know, trust me I know and I honestly wish I could get my hands on whatever natborn officers let this slip. The worst part is, no matter how hard I've tried, I haven't managed to get them to see General Skywalker and Commander Tano won't deny them things, or punish them for something as minor as breathing too loudly. Nor will they reward them for bashing each other's faces in over a place in the mess hall line... Cody, looking back at the brawl: Is that why they're fighting over there? For a place in line? Rex, looking at the group: ... Hm, no I think James just felt like antagonizing Jesse. And Fives tried to mediate but he got shoved back and collided with Lobo, who didn't take kindly and attacked him. Which is when Tup and Caprichoso got involved. Cody: ... Should we do something? Rex: I tried but... -points behind him- Cody, looks: Carno, sitting in the next table over staring at Rex while breathing heavily which his helmet vocoder transmits rather threateningly: Cody, blinking slowly: Carno, shakes his still helmeted head slowly in warning: Cody: .... I think we need a new approach to this problem. Rex: No kidding. If they can't work with other clones they won't have much of a future as troopers... And I'd rather not sign off on that kind of flimsywork. Cody: I'm sure we'll find a solution. We just need to figure out what works for them...
