punsbulletsandpointythings:norcumi:buffskeleton:“I want the entire area cleared. We’re taking everything back to Coruscant.”6x10 The Lost OneFor all the horrible sadness or crack that season 6 contained, it could be damn pretty. I want a whole show around Plo and the Wolf Pack. I want to see what these clones do when they find out their new General has a permanent bucket, or close enough because most atmospheres are toxic to him. I want to see them learning to respect each other as they get used to this new factor in their life. I want to see story arcs where Wolffe loses his eye and learns to deal with it, how he bonds with someone who is in charge of him but understands needing an apparatus to “function normally.”I want to see Plo ambling into the break room, too tired to meditate and the Pack too punchy for sleep, and everyone finding out who the best card shark in the squad is. I want to see Plo and Warthog quietly repairing their ships together, the Force sometimes sending parts over to the Jedi’s wingman, or catching tools tossed at him. I want to see Plo teaching his squad to meditate during one interminable transport to the far end of the galaxy in an ancient cruiser, where half the mechanics have broken down and there’s only so much target practice or sparring they can do. I want story arcs on Dorin, where the Pack first sees their General, ANY Kel Dor, without the mask. I want Plo, awkward and trying to be gracious about the fact that his mask is as much his face as the buckets are theirs, but the Pack understands that there is something underneath, even if they’ve never seen it. I want the Pack to find out Plo is a quiet drunk, because dammit, it’s not SAFE to get seriously boozed when the slightest misstep can kill you, and he makes a point of getting sloshed once every time he’s on planet.I want to see the Pack carrying him back to the guest quarters, and he’s quietly cheerful about it the next morning despite his hangover, because he remembers how there wasn’t the slightest double-take at him without his mask, and how the clones were removing their breathers long enough to match him shot for shot. The Pack defending his reputation against Kel Dor who don’t understand how he wants to wear his face, and against the humans in the diplomatic party who are uncomfortable with an unmasked Jedi who should have more dignity than that. I even want the horrible, post Order 66 episodes, where a quiet Pack meets on Kel Dor, taking a solemn breath before unmasking and downing a shot in the General’s memory. I want to see men with a wolf’s head tattoo or flash patch joining the Rebellion, grim faced and determined to take down that which took their leader. I want to see a clone, one of the few survivors of a mission gone sour sitting down after his debriefing and shaking from the memories, because he almost died to Darth Vader. It was wrong, it was all wrong and a twisted mix of things he’s lost and misses – the sound of a lightsaber, but in a sick red instead of blue-white. The echoes of speech under a mask, but stilted and forced instead of rich and resonant. Use of the Force, but used to torture instead of defend. I want to see the Pack gathering, and doing everything they can to rebuild the Republic they were bred for, and to bring back the Order their General belonged to.I want to see the Pack celebrating on Endor, a group of grim-faced identical men clustered around a fire and giving the ewoks wary grins. Wolffe trying to not grimace too much because it’s always another one of THOSE planets, but at least the little furballs know how to fight, now someone else go tell his holiness Threepio to get them away from him. I want to see the Pack going quiet as a blue figure appears, and shares a drink with them. Welp I’m crying now this is cool this is fine -- source link
