(Thanks to @feelinkeeli for suggesting this clone!)

Muzzle is feeling something he’s mentally relating to claustrophobia from being in this system so long. For the first year of the war, Maze and Fett tossed him at little problems, letting him go solo at first and then assigning him a babysitter of a LT after the little incident with Admiral Tarkin—the bastard deserved to get his jaw broken—and then a few missions later he’d gotten stuck here, leading an offensive against one of the most annoying generals the Separatists must possess.

The men that are, somehow, under him no longer cower to his glares. They ask him how he’s doing. They cheer him on.

Who do they think he is, Spar?

Speaking of that particular mess, Spar and his Jetiise should be arriving any minute. It’s hard to rail against his fate, stuck here, when this was supposed to be Spar’s life. Instead he’s stuck playing Fett’s political game, trying to keep the other Alphas from worrying too much about him. Muzzle knows better, though. Hell, even Sull and Tavo and their little clique who tried to not pay too much attention to Spar back on Kamino know.

He’s sick. Even if he mostly looks better, he’s still sick.

“Sir, the proscribed ship is approaching. They’re being directed to the docking bay,” Muzzle’s LT, Dennis, says, looking more anxious than usual.

Muzzle barely spares him a glance and heads off to the docking bay. “Medics on stand-by?”

“Yes sir, just like last time.”

Spar’d come by last on one of Muzzle’s first missions with Dennis. Muzzle may have…overdone it, if his LT’s remembering it so well. “Good.”

Muzzle waits in an appropriate parade rest as the ship ramp comes down, but any view of him as a stern ARC is absolutely smashed by the way Spar comes flying down the ramp and nearly tackles him to the ground. It’s absolutely done in when he hugs Spar back. “Su cuy’gar, shebs,” he mutters.

Spar laughs, loud and joyful and a little forced. “Su cuy’gar, al’verde,” he retorts, dropping back to the metal floor of the docking bay.

Muzzle grimaces. “Who are you calling al’verde, eh?”

Spar blinks, then looks over at Dennis. 

Muzzle also looks at Dennis who abruptly drops his hands from whatever sign he was making and attempts to look innocent. Unfortunately for Dennis, he can’t even look innocent when he is, which is rare enough anyway. “What?”

“Nothing, sir,” Dennis says quickly.

Spar frowns. “Come on, don’t tell me no one told him.”

Dennis looks away.

“Did you even tell him you got a promotion?”

“What?” Muzzle asks. “Wait, what rank are you now?”

Dennis will not meet his eyes. “...Captain,” he admits, mumbling the world.

Okay, so they have the same rank now—. “And what rank do I have, Captain?”

“...Commander.”

Spar snickers. “I bet Maze didn’t want to scare you.”

“Scare me. Sure. More like he knows I’ll go back to Coruscant and kill him for this—wait does this mean…” No. No.

“You are the proud commander of a very decorated battalion,” Spar assures him. “They were very happy to petition for your promotion so they could keep you.”

Muzzle looks down at him. “I’m killing Maze.”

“Not until the war is won.”

Ugh. He’s right. They unfortunately need Maze to do all the paperwork and keep Fett from replacing the duraplast of their armour with cured aiwha hide.

Spar pats his shoulder. “Good man. Now deal with the fact you got promoted like an adult and not a cadet.”

Muzzle wrinkles his nose at him. 

Spar smiles.

One of the Jetiise clears their throat and Muzzle has to remember that right. Spar isn’t alone.

That’s something, at least. 

(I am not currently accepting clones to subject to Spar.)

Alright, since I will be off work for the next six weeks and I don’t currently have any source of income (disability hasn’t kicked in yet), I am going to open some custom clone trooper phase 2 ref commissions.

For these commissions, I have a base that will be working off of to customize your clone trooper. So far for bases I have: Basic Phase 2 armor, ARC / Captain gear, Pilot gear, base Commando armor, and a handful of hairstyles and expressions, as seen below.

Each will come as a set of 4: Full-kit, Helmet off, Half-kit, and shirtless. I do not currently have a base for the lower body without a kit, but if someone wants to pay for that line alteration, it will be added to the base options. Any line alterations requested will be added to the presets.

Rates:

A base set will be $45, which includes any of the presets requested, recoloring, and scarring. Line alterations are an additional cost, as follows:

Hair (including facial and body): $5-15, depending on complexity

Armor additions: $10-30, depending on complexity

Expressions: $5

Accessories, Tattoos: $5-10

Samples:

You can DM me or email me at [email protected] if you are interested, just please be sure you have all of your references together.

If you want tattoos added, please have a picture of what you want. I will not be designing them from scratch.

Please do me a favor and reblog this if you are a clone wars-centric blog! 💕 I would really appreciate it.

I’m really pleased with how these look recoloured

I got really inspired by those fics where Fox has to go on weird ass covert missions for palpabitch, if you're one of those writers i love you

This was in my drafts for ages and i forgot all about it until now. Sorry about that.

And well, I didn't really extrapolate why it's orange and blue.

To be clear Blue and Orange morality can have logical reasoning behind it when played serious and not comedic (as I mentioned in tags). Where it gets Orange and Blue is how Mandalorians handle the concern of 'protecting children' and how other cultures percieve it.

For example, this logic is probably behind the actions of

1) Legends - Jaster Mereel allowing 8yo Jango into an active combat once he knows Jango has learned how to use a gun and calls Jango's father a good man for doing so. A situation that leads to Jango strapping a bomb to a tank and almost being killed.

2) canon - Jango taking a ~9yo Boba on a bounty hunt to start learning the trade and almost getting Boba killed when Boba is held hostage.

3) Legends - Kal Skirata bringing his son to active warzones in order to train him.

4) canon - Din actively and intentionally bringing Grogu along into dangerous situations.*

The whole 'doesn't see anything wrong with bringing a child into a dangerous situation' is where the Orange and Blue starts to show. Simply because this time around the parent Mandalorian is there to protect them.

So from an Outsider Perspective, Mandalorians are taking kids from warzones, possibly warzones they created, and training them to become fully trained soldiers. By... taking them back into warzones, but this time with adult supervision.

And sure, there is personal/generational/cultural trauma going on that feeds into this.

There is the fact that 13 is considered the age of adulthood for Mandalorians in which they are considered a fully trained soldier and earn their armor. (Which I know some people just think it's a coming of age thing like a sweet sixteen but there are planetary rulers around this age in the GFFA. Childhood is short in Star Wars)

*to be fair, Din tried to leave Grogu on his ship, twice. Grogu ended up taken hostage once and nearly killed another.

I sure would love it if Mandalorians were written with Blue and Orange morality more often. I know I have made posts about this before.

Please consider, Mandalorians are an adoption culture. Primarily of war orphans. As cynical as it is, Mandalorians more than anyone else in the galaxy are aware you can try to protect your children from danger as hard as you can and that might not be enough. Was barely enough to save them.

So Mandalorians are going to look at training young children in how to fight (and hide and run) as a way to protect their children. They can't control the galaxy. They can't say with any surety that their children will have the chance to live long, peaceful lives. Yes, training them to be warriors does work out to be something of a self-fulfilling prophecy, but the alternative is blind faith things will be fine. The same blind faith their parents had resulted in them being Found by Mandalorians.

I'm not saying this is the right decision. I'm saying there's logic to it. A logic that makes arguments against such actions sound nonsensical.

Putting off training or not doing it all doesn't make sense when Mandalorians see the training as the one way they can help their children survive a worse case scenario. Arguments to let their children choose to not be warriors doesn't make sense to Mandalorians because war isn't always a choice.

It leads to the type of arguments that never end and no one wins because the choice one side favors is incomprehensible to the other.

[feelinkeeli]

@mandalorianbrainweasel and I have been going back and forth on how to summarize Mandalore the Ultimate and Cassus Fett's personalities in a way for people who haven't read the KOTOR Comics and I think I nailed it.

Ultimate is basically a competent version of Zapp Brannigan (Futurama):

Reasoning: he's a total unrepenetent ham. He came out to attack and is having a great time. His theme song is probably Queen's "Don't stop me now." Really, the fact that Ultimate is good at being Mand'alor is where he differs from Zapp.

Cassus Fett is Evil Spock (Star Trek):

Reasoning: This poor bastard is the only Mandalorian who has any actual military knowledge. If he survived Revan he probably would have gone on to write the GFFA equivalent of Art of Total War: Pro War Crimes edition.

Bonus:

Zayne Carrick looks like Anakin Skywalker but is essentially Vash the Stampede:

In a similar vein, apparently blocking people only blocks them from interacting with your main blog. They can still interact with your side blogs. You just won't see it.

Yeah... that has problems. As I'm sure people can work out.

So... uh, apparently hiding my main blog from Google and other searches meant that this blog might have gotten hidden as well? Whoops.

I see people keep calling spyscrapper and kesett ships as jetpack boyfriends. Then there's merical and I got to admit I really love the naming schemes the JFO & Jedi Surivor fans have going on.

We are all clearly having a blast naming things in the pun-vein that I adore. All you shippers out there are awesome.

#merical #spyscrapper #kesett #jetpack boyfriends #question though. is jetpack boyfriends short for #kesett 🤝 spyscrapper #or like cal/bode/boba? #both? cause both is good?

Rants!

Rochi: there are literally 19 fics for this ship, all but 3 written by the same person, and the characters have never even been mentioned in the same sentence, let alone met. neither of them have any lines, we don't know what one looks like and we only know he exists because of like 2 fact files you can find scattered around the game. but holy shit if the dynamic ive deluded myself into thinking they have isnt DELECTABLE

Duckylove: A HYPERSPECIFIC POLYCULE BETWEEN MOST OF THE TEENAGERS IN THE DWAMPYVERSE CAST. TECHNICALLY THE BASIS IS IN THE PHINEAS AND FERB CAST, WITH CANDACE DATING JEREMY, STACY, AND VANESSA, BUT IT COMPLICATES FROM THERE. I USUALLY HAVE STACY AND VANESSA DATING EACH OTHER, ALONG WITH STACY DATING COLTRANE AND VANESSA DATING MONTY. MONTY CAN ALSO BE DATING CARL IT DEPENDS. FROM THERE THERES THE MILO MURPHY'S LAW CAST, WITH SARA DATING CANDACE AND VANESSA, ALONG WITH NEAL. THE HAMSTER AND GRETEL CAST INCLUSION IS KEVIN DATING HIROMI, WHOS DATING STACY AND SARA AS WELL. FRED AND JENNY (AND A BUNCHA THE OTHER TEENS BUT LESS FULLY AS THESE TWO) ARE ALSO THERE BUT FRED AND JENNY ARE AROACE SO THEY JUST KINDA EXIST THERE.

Kesett: Ok so the ship started as something random @ironhoshi and @fettupwithyou came up with but then more people started to hear about it and it became an actual ship. The whole idea was because people realized Boba and Cal are about the same age and Boba is a bounty hunter and Cal is someone who would probably be wanted by a bunch of people
