Clone Trooper Kix - Blog Posts

A little late to the party. Was hoping to get this out for May the Fourth, but eh, such is life...

Just a continuation of a ridiculous little comic that I made last year and was recently reminded about. Don't mind my scuffed sense of humor, feel free to just keep scrolling. XD

Part #1 - May the Fourth Be With You 2023

Part #2 - Revenge of the Sixth 2023

Part #3 - May the Fourth Be With You 2024:

I posted a new fic!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/65094643

It’s an ongoing series containing short (and I mean short) works of my clone OCs. Give it a read!

This is a petition to make Kix have his own show. Each upvote as an agreement with this statement so we can show Dave Filoni that we want a Kix-centric series because everybody loves the prettiest clone in the GAR. We require a series that details Kix’s discovery of the chips, his kidnapping, his experiences as the last vod alive, his time with the Crimson Corsair. WE NEED KIX!!!

Kix in the barracks sensing his teammates lack of self care:

God okay I'm just. So fucking tired. So here's a list of resources to educate yourself on issues within Star Wars. In light of the Bad Batch Finale and the announcement of the second season, it's vital that you educate yourself about the racism and other issues present.

Reminder that you cannot be in the middle. You are either racist or anti-racist. If you do not practice anti-racism and choose to stay "neutral", you are only supporting a system that constantly perpetuates racism and harms people.

And if for some reason, you think I'm overreacting; for some reason, you think I'm sensitive; for some reason, your first instinct is to get defensive and lash out; you really need to do some thinking as to why you want to scream at POC who just want the right to be recognized and seen. Who just want the right to not be erased.

And if you think this is "not good enough" because they're "just blog posts" or whatever - don't bullshit me. Even if I posted a shit ton of scholarly articles you wouldn't have read them anyway if you're coming at me with excuses for why you think the discrimination is okay. These posts are accessible, and well-written, and straight from the lived experiences of the many minorities and the allies that want to amplify their voices. I'm not asking you to take everything at face value. I'm asking you to do your own research and engage in some critical thinking instead of blindly accepting what you're given.

*Disclaimer: while I have read these sources, i read some a while ago and if there's an issue you have with some of them let me know!

(If your post is listed and you want me to take it off the list please dm me and let me know!)

The Bad Batch

#unwhitewashtbb carrd - with extensive resources here that speak about the Māori people, their culture, and the current issues they face. If you care about them, then read these resources and amplify their voices.

Petition to #unwhitewashtbb

Why you're actively supporting racism if you decide not to support anti-racist movements because you "have beef with someone" who's an anti-racist

Clone Whitewashing #2 - with really clear pictures of the whitewashing

Clone Whitewashing #3 - with an extensive Temura Morrison reference sheet

Issues with Echo's design

Reasons why the take that "Omega is light-skinned because she's based on Temura Morrison's sister" and the take that "Polynesian people can be light-skinned too you're just being racist" are absolute shit takes (similar post, #2)

Feel free to add further resources in reblogs or just send them straight to me and I'll add them!

Oh, and by the way, if you think "it's just fiction you're just overreacting this doesn't hurt anyone": news flash: it sure does.

CBC News: Anti-Asian Racism in the media

Role of Media in anti-asian racism

NPR: Hollywood colorism

How the media fuels anti-black racism

Ways anti-indigenous racism is expressed in media and in other ways

NBC News: Rise in anti-asian racism

Resources on anti-black racism

What I've listed above is only a single drop in a massive ocean. There are so, so many other minority groups who are also suffering that I haven't listed. I haven't even touched on homophobia, on transphobia, and I've barely touched on ableism, not to mention that there's so many other issues out there. I haven't talked about the issues with how the Tuskens are portrayed, or how Watto is portrayed, or how Jar Jar Binks was portrayed, or how Kelly Marie Tran was treated, or how Trace and Rafa Martez were treated, or how the fandom hates Mace Windu, or how Poe's backstory was butchered, or much, much more. If you have more resources, please please please share them in the reblogs. It is impossible to encompass everything in a single post, but we sure as hell can try.

Alright. I've given you the resources. I've given you my time and energy. It's up to you now to educate yourself. It's ok to make mistakes - we're constantly learning and unlearning. It's ok to need to take breaks, and to save this for later because you're tired and the world is going to shit. We are human.

But it's not okay to stay willfully ignorant. It's not okay to constantly try and belittle the trauma and struggles of minorities just because you've been okay living in a system that's built on oppression. Educate yourself.

One more tip: when reblogging or sharing your own resources, flood your tags with everything to do with Star Wars. Flood the Crosshair tag. Flood the Hunter and Omega tag. Flood the tags, because this is relevant to their characters and to the entire saga, and fans need to know.

Including tags of the people I posted resources from under the cut!

Everyone talkin bout how Rex survive the Jedi purge and fought in rebels but no ones talkin bout how Kix and his stubborn angry ass survived all the way to Kylo Ren’s birth and fall to the dark side. My mans was probebly between 40-100 physically when Kylo died. He survived all the Skywalker bullshit and is probebly real salty bout having to deal with it.

“Fives, I need you to go to sleep early tonight” Rex said lowly as he had pulled the bearded man aside. “As you wish, Captain. May I ask why?” “We’re taking the boys on a surprise vacation and I need to count on you to drive us tomorrow” the blonde clone grinned. 

AKA Rex decides to take his boys on a break and plans the whole night for their leave

SONG and GIF Version under the cut

[Song: I Hate Me - Mosimann] GIF Version: 

SW Headcannons

The first time Rex has real, good coffee, he starts crying (happy tears). All the coffee on the ship slowly starts disappearing, and the next day Ahsoka finds him in a storage closet, surrounded by a mountain of coffee rations. She promises not to tell, as long as he shares. They make a pinky-promise on it (because that is totally something the clones would do, no I am not taking questions).

The first close call, though, came when Cody was making a routine inspection on the ship. He passed right by, but with his mom-friend powers he 'sensed' something wrong with one of the storage spaces. Rex has to subtly comm Ahsoka, who's busy with Jedi stuff. He must use the last resort. Fives answers immediately, and doesn't question why his captain wants him to blow something up. It works, and Cody bolts out to find out where the fire came from.

Unfortunately, though, Fives gets curious, and the secret eventually spreads to the entire 501st. Most of them find it amusing, but don't particularly care. But there's a few, like Jesse and Hardcase, who take it to heart. Other battalions begin to notice their coffee rations are disappearing. Nobody ever catches the 501st, because although they're often a hot mess, those boys are terrifying when united for a cause.

Soon, the 501st has turned into an unstoppable menace due to the unhealthy amount of caffeine they're drinking.

The one brother who can never know, though, is Kix. The vod even have to avoid drinking too much before their check-ins, as he might get suspicious about the crazy amounts of caffeine in their bodies. Despite their terrible lying skills, he never finds out. He might even steal from the stash on particularly late shifts (they'll never ask, because Kix is scary. Don't mess with the medic).

They're so overcaffinated that nobody questions it when Fives and Ahsoka disappear for a few days, and Palpatine mysteriously dies. Everybody lives happily ever after, and Senator Amidala makes sure that the clones all get extra coffee rations (Ahsoka too, because she couldn't escape her crazy brother's antics).

Jesse: Okay, help me please! Kix: Got two words for you. Jesse: I bet they won't be helpful. Kix: Your problem. Jesse: I was right

501st Shenanigans -Incorrect Quotes Rex: A mouse!

Jesse, pulling out a knife: Go back to where you came from or I'll stab you.

Hardcase, pulling out a frying pan: It'll make a nice meal!

Kix, giving the mouse cheese: You deserve a treat, little guy.

Echo, gasping: It's Ratatouille!

Fives: His name is Remi, dummy.

Rex: ...I was going to say to just trap it and throw it out the window... what is wrong with you people.

Rex: So, did everyone learn their lesson?

Fives: No.

Echo: I did not.

Hardcase: I may have actually forgotten one.

Kix: Also no.

Jesse: Oh good, neither did I.

Rex: *Exhausted sigh*

Echo: Fives and I have the kind of easy chemistry where we finish each other's-

Fives: Sentences.

Echo: Don't interrupt me.

Fives: If there's going to be a big dramatic scene, wait until I get back.

Echo: Of course. I can't flip this table by myself.

Hardcase: I've already sent good vibes your way… they’re coming. There’s nothing you can do to stop them.

Dogma: This is the most threatening way I’ve ever been cheered up.

Fives: Don’t worry, I know exactly what I’m doing. Everything is going to be fine!

Tup: How can you still say that?

Fives: Because sometimes, when things get tough, denial is all we have.

Kix: Sorry it took me so long to bail you out of jail

Jesse: No it’s my fault, I shouldn’t’ve used my one phone call to prank call the police

This fic is the sequel to my fic "Hold on to Me", which can be found here on ao3. This will provide some context to some of the situations Kix references during this fic, but both can be read independently.

Please enjoy and let me know what you think!

@tealmisthams and @kotemf, tagging you guys because this is the "Kix the burnt out medic fic" from my WIP list game that you both asked about! It is finally finished, so instead of answering your asks I give you the fic :)

Thank you for the tag @aknightreaderr! I love the passage you posted! Crosshair is adorable lol <3 I can't believe I haven't read this yet, it is now added to the list :)

This is the first passage from a Kix centric fic I may or may not ever post XD I've been working on it for about 6 months now, and I still haven't polished it to the point of posting. Hope y'all enjoy and please let me know if anyone would be interested in reading more!

“Pulse check!” Kix’s voice rang out over the chaotic clamour, firm and strong. The stillness was immediate, as the junior medic pulled back from the chest, panting in exertion from the endless rounds of compressions. The nurse droids stilled, and the monitors remained silent; all eyes were on the patient. Kix’s heart hammered in his chest, a cruel mockery of the dead trooper before him. He waited with bated breath for Coric’s assessment to prove the flat line on the cardiac monitor wrong. It didn’t.

No pressure tags: @tealmisthams, @ladylucksrogue, @acatinwinterfell, @queen-of-mandalore, @melting-houses-of-gold, and anyone else who wants to participate!

First line challenge!

Rules: post the first line of your WIP, the first line you worked on today, or any other “first line!”

Thank you for the tag @babyscilence! <3

This is from an AU, post chip-arc, where the Daughter takes the fate of the galaxy in her own hands and gives Fives a second chance by bringing him back -- only he's now a cadet on Kamino, about to face graduation. What could go wrong? a lot :)

I've got a lot of ideas for this one, so probably I'll rant about it in the future but for now here's the first few pharagraphs :)

The last thing he sees is Rex's face, the teardrop spilling down his cheek and then darkness consumes everything. Fives presses his eyes shut and lets it take over him. I'm sorry Rex. He doesn't feel his limbs, like he's floating. It's alnost...comforting. Sort of. He creaks his eyes open and they widen in surprise as the stars appear. One by one. White and blue, bright and faint. Thousands of them.

Also if it sounds a bit weird, I always write in my first language and kind of just hastily translated this :))

NPTs: I really don't know if you guys did this already, but if you'd like to join: @bladelei, @aknightreaderr

a good clanker is what?

wondering if anyone's a fuckin dork like me and named their pets after a star wars character so reblog this if u have

anyways here's kix :P

Echo had a nightmare about a world where Fives and Rex are the type of clones NOT to check the fallen for signs of life, and he was left behind at the citadel to be captured and turned into a droid.

Good thing that isn’t this world. In this world we listen to music and express our thoughts with those we trust and love.

The practice to draw clones continues! Not pictured: the couple hours of crying as I had to rewatch things like Rex being shot and the Umbara arc in order to figure out what clone under-blacks look like (interestingly there are three versions and I decided I’d combine them). ALSO I promise I have other happy comic ideas 😂 but for now it’s hurt/comfort clone hours. Please enjoy! And stay tuned for more!

Also please note: for the most accurate listening experience on what Fives would sound similar to while singing this, listen to the version of ‘Over the Rainbow’ by Israel Kamakawiwo’ole.
