Jesse Snippet to validate my hard work
So, after rereading the latest scene I wrote, I came to the (fortunate for you, unfortunate for me) conclusion that this WIP is quickly going from a 10k to a 15k fic.
Send help, I done screwed myself with this one XD
ANYWAYS, snippet bc DANG IT I WORKED HARD ON THIS
You sighed silently, choosing instead to finish tending to his wound. Knot the last stitch. Cut the string. Place the needle and thread on a sterile tray. Wipe the wound with an antiseptic wipe. Grab a bacta patch-
“Doc.”
You jumped, startled out of the instructions you’d known since the beginning of your medical training. “Yeah?”
Jesse turned to face you fully, head moving away from the bacta patch you held. “Why did you push me away?”
You glanced down at the floor, afraid that if you met his eyes, you’d find anger and condemnation.
I'M LITERALLY GOING TO DIE, THIS FIC IS GOING TO BE THE DEATH OF ME

Dehydration
Back with some vampire clones!
Echo's throat feels like the air on a desert planet. The nutrients the Techno Union were giving him must have been high in iron or something, because he's well aware that blood brothers don't survive this long with only rations, but he's still so thirsty.
"Rex. Thirsty."
His Captain glances around the room automatically before he turns back to Echo. The General navigating with Tech, it's only vod here. "Blood or water?" He murmurs, the arm around Echo's shoulder's squeezing gently.
"Blood. Please?"
The sergeant - crap what was his name? - glanced up. "You're, what did that medic call them? A redder brother?"
"Blood or redder brother." Rex confirmed. "If you're unfamiliar I guess you don't have any bitten with you?" Bitten, their terms for brothers who are willing to be go-to's for all the blood brothers. Fives had been one.
"I'm not sure what that means?"
Rex grimaced. "How close are we to the Resolute?"
"Tech!" The Sargent calls. "What's our ETA?"
"Twenty-five minutes!" Is the shouted response. The other two troopers are watching, clearly curious.
"And time to get to the medbay." Rex adds. "Thirty minutes Echo. Can you hold on for thirty minutes?" Echo nods, too tired to say more.
Thirty minutes later a surprised Tech watches the ARC trooper they rescued sink alarmingly sharp teeth into the wrist of the ARC who'd accompanied them earlier. "Huh."
"Don't work with the blood brothers a lot do ya?" The ARC asks from where he's carefully holding Echo, apparently very relaxed with the biting. "Echo. You've got to breathe."
There's a snarl and the ARC winces. "Okay maybe you don't."
"Might need another volunteer Jesse." The medic - Kix - muttered. "Echo I'm going to scan you. Stay calm." He waits till he gets an acknowledgement, then starts.
"I have questions." Tech decides.
"Run me through what you know of these prosthetics and we can talk once I know he's stable."

Y’know one of my favourite tropes? Clones with lightsabers but out of necessity. Rex picking up that laser sword of death as his last effort to defend an unconscious Anakin. Obi-Wan getting blasted across the room, Cody igniting his lightsaber with a look at his General, who just gives him the slowest, solemn nod. Jesse body-tackling Ahsoka out of the way of a blaster bolt and picking up her shoto to deflect the onslaught of fire from droids because it’s the nearest thing he could reach. Wolffe grabbing Plo’s lightsaber and melting his way through near-impenetrable blast doors to rescue him. Bly catching Aayla’s saber in midair to slice a battle droid in half, then tossing it back to her without missing a beat.
bonus:
Fox whacking Sheev in the face with his own lightsaber so hard he just kriffin dies.
