How do you think Cody reacted when Rex told him that Fox shot Fives? (And would Cody believe Fox if he says that he didn't know how it happened?)
ready for my thoughts? let's go:
first of all: i truly believe that fox knew what he was doing. they weren't looking for a mere drug dealer or something, as far as fox knew, fives tried assassinating the chancellor. he saw fives capturing a jedi and a clone captain, grasping for a blaster the moment fox and his men appeared and fox still said don't do it don't do it but fives took that blaster and honestly, fox reacted according to the situation. it just doesn't mean he's happy about it
rex doesn't tell cody about fives, because his mind is full as it is, trying to understand that fives is actually dead, thinking about fives' theories about organic chips - there is no room left to think about telling cody
cody figures it out by himself. he checks the crew for the upcoming mission of the 212th and the 501st and at first he just skips through his brothers' names until- wait why isn't fives on that list?
so he obviously checks his status, just to see deceased written right next to it. he tries reaching rex via comm, but no one answers
so he digs a little deeper and ends up reading about the whole affair - reading about how fives captured anakin and rex and how fox shot fives
but here's the thing: cody NEVER blames fox for fives' death. cody's the marshal commander, he has to make ugly decisions on a regular basis, he KNOWS that feeling of making a terrible decision and he KNOWS fox. he knows that his brother doesn't go around shooting fellow brothers because he has a bad day
and here's the other thing: cody knows that rex is struggling, but he still decides to check on fox first
and it's good that way because even though fox reacted according to the situation, fox still shot a brother and he takes it hard. he told fives to not take the damn blaster but in the end, fox had to make a decision
so cody stays for a while. they talk and talk until fox calms down, far from happy but at least a bit more stable now. and fox asks cody about fives because he truly wants to know who fives was
if you ask me, i highly doubt that cody would be angry at fox. he would be concerned and observant and absolutely willing to gather as much information as possible before drawing any conclusions. i do believe that cody was deeply shocked upon hearing the news of fives' death, but he would never blame fox for it. i also believe that cody's faith in fives remains untouched - cody's a strategic man, he understands that people have certain perspectives and beliefs that make them act in a certain way. he knows that both fives and fox believed that they were doing the right thing. it doesn't necessarily mean that cody believes it, but they did so and that is enough for cody

The thing again.
Disclaimer: This is originally a K-Pop Blog, yes but there is one thing I need to say. And I will be talking about suicide, Depression etc. But if both of those things are alright for you, then I’d be happy if you could read the few things I learned in the past few hours. + This migh be super emotional because I’ve been listening to them ever since so there’s plenty of things I want to say. (Ignore the typos)
I honestly don’t really know where to start this, so this might as well be a chit-chat post. So if there’s anything you want to add, either publicly or anonym, then please feel free and do so. There’s no order to the things I want to say, so please excuse, if I repeat some things over and over again. 
So. This beautiful gentleman right here is Chester Bennington. Lead-singer of Linkin Park. As you might know he died by suicide a couple of months ago. On July 20, 2017 to be exact. 
I don’t really remember if I talked about him on this Blog. But as you might know I talked about other Idols who suffer from depression so you might know my standing point to such a sensitive topic. 
I remember when I read the news, like everyone else, didn’t want to believe. I thought that those were either fake news, or because the news of my country only talked about “tried to commit suicide”, thought that he might be in hospital. So the real realization kicked in a while later. Until I really realized what happend I - other than my friends - started to listen to all of the records and cover songs etc. I always knew that there was a deep meaning to his songs. I understood the meanings even when, judging by the melody, the songs were “happier”. 
But when I listened to the songs on that day… it felt so different. I was talking to friends, asking literally only “why”. Why him. Why such a pure soul. Why do good people leave first. In those minutes I really turned into the serious person I am and I’m pretty sure that my friends were not ready for that. I remebered all the funds, the benefit concerts, the MV for Iridescent in the childrens hospital, not even speaking about music for relief. And yes I know not those were things the whole of Linkin Park participated in, but the only thing I thought about in that moment was: Jesus, he deserved better. He deserved to be happy, he deserved only the best things on this known earth. I wasn’t only sad on that day, but also somewhat angry about how careless some people are. Maybe an hour after the news spread, people started saying things like “He’s weak. // He left his wife and his kids alone. // His acting was selfish.” and this might be the only point where I break character because who the fuck do you think you are. None of us know what he was going through, he was never selfish. It’s none of your business talking like that about someone who is no longer with us. Show some respect at least. That shoulnd’t be so difficult. 
Linkin Park is one of the few bands who never, never showed off with anything they had. They never said anything against anyone, talked to their fans no matter what. And they value their fans. And I’m sure, not only Chester but all of the boys… even their wives are role models for a lot of people. Talinda and Anna keep interacting with fans who text them, they post their own experiences. Personally, I’ve never seen something like this. The Fanbase of Linkin Park is so overwhelmingly close to each other. I’ve seen random strangers on my timeline, helping each other out, giving advice, offering help. 
One of the main reasons why I’m writing this, is yesterdays concert. I did not sleep, because I wanted to see this concert “as live as posible”. And as soon as the concert started I was wide awake. The beginning wasn’t was made me sad. Neither did Mikes voice cracking on the saddest parts of the lyrics. Not even the fact that Chester was missing - and I still don’t know why I didn’t start bawling my eyes out as soon as they started the song and his voice wasn’t the first thing we heard. 
What made me sad, or let’s say emotianal was, again, the fanbase. Singing a whole complete song without a singer on stage… Wow. At some places, in some songs, the voice of the crowd overpowered the singers on stage. The individual shots of the crowd, hugging each other, being close and singing while crying. I can’t imagine how they must’ve felt there. Mike asking if they really just sung along a Youtube video… Hell yes, we did. We know everything by heart. I also think the only time I cried during the concert was when Mike asked wether or not it was okay to ask if the crowd was having fun. It felt like you saw the exact moment he realized what he said, in his facial expression. 
But I also was quite happy seeing them laugh, how Mike was acting on stage, how tightly he hugged all the guests. I’m sure they were sad, on this day maybe even more than on others, but they made the best out of it, knowing that Chester wouldn’t want anyone to be sad. Rob, Brad, Dave, Dave, Mike and Joe seemed to be so relieved by the end of the concert. 
And lastly. Talinda. Gorgeous woman. She was so strong up there. Talking about her feelings, how grateful she was to have her friends - her brothers and sisters - by her side. They are creating a resource to help others - again not thinking about themselves but people who need help. 
Today was the day when I felt like the Fanbase is back to its normal form. Before you could feel the sadness but after the concert it just… Just seemed to be so “normal” again. 
I’m really glad that I’ve gotten to know them and you guys. The only band I’ve been listening to ever since I can remember. The only band I ever wanted to see live. And probably the only band I will listen to until I grow old. 
Yesterday Mike kept saying ‘Thank you’ to everyone. The Fans, the band, the guests, just everyone. But today I want to say, 
Thank you Linkin Park. Thank you Mike, thank you Brad, thank you Rob, thank you Dave, thank you Joe, thank you Chester for brightening up our days. For being with us during our hardest times. Thank you.
