A few silly thoughts abt the domino squad

The domino squad is probaly one of the most important but also somehow underrated parts of the entirety of the Clone Wars series.

The name 'Domino Squad' is like one of the first things that strikes me as something remarkble. It describes the characters perfectly. They are called the Domino squad because they set off a domino effect!

So we start out with their training; they weren't able to work together, which ultimately led to Hevy forming a closer bond to 99. Hevy, Droidbait and Cutup died on Rishi, but Echo and Fives were pushed forward, back to Kamino. Dominos fell and pushed forward their brothers. If 99 hadn't been close to Hevy, he would probably not have been as confident as he was during the Battle of Kamino. This led to his death, the death of a Hero but if it hadn't been for Hevy's influence on 99, he might not have fallen that way.

Echo and Fives became Arch troopers, which led to Echo's death and Fives' isolation. Fives grew closer to Tup and Rex, this made him one of the people Rex trusted the most. During Umbara it was Rex's trust in his men (in the episodes the focus is on Fives) that made him question Krell's decisions. They survived Umbara because of this.

Fives discovered the inhibitor chip, which he might not have if he hadn't grown close to Tup. And it was Fives' words to Rex that were the first thing that Rex remembered during the Order 66. Rex being able to remember Fives and warn Ahsoka in those last few seconds, made it possible for him and Ahsoka to survive.

The last domino fell and revealed a pattern that was twisted and cruel but not unsavable.

THEREFORE, I believe that the name of the Domino Squad is a reference to the roles they play in the Clone Wars. They are the reason there was still hope at the end. They were so much more important.

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

I gotta thank you! Finally got around to reading this fic and I laughed so hard ngl. So, thanks for the recommendation, I really do appreciate it!

That scene in TBB where it's like "Is there an Echo in here?" and Echo says, "Yes." [...] "I'm Echo." gave me a thought™

What if this was something that happened a lot during the clone wars because like, you can't tell me there's not at least one clone out there whose name was Wrench or Spanner or Screwdriver or something. And someone would just be "Hey, could you give me the wrench." and suddenly you're on a call with a guy called Wrench who you 1) don't know and 2) didn't ask for. And a few months latet you're best friends or something.

My point is; this is funny and it should've been something that happened like twice a day during the cw

I think we are not giving enough attention to the fact that Omega wanted to STEAL the literal ship of THE EMPEROR

She is so done with everything I love that energy on her

#and she's so NONCHALANT about it #Like that's an absolutely reasonable plan #it is ... somewhat #omega tbb #the bad batch #the bad batch season 3 spoilers #the bad batch spoilers #the bad batch season 3

Y'all know that theory where Cody keeps a lightsaber clip on his belt for obi-wans saber.

Well I had an idea

After the war is over and order 66 doesn't happen

Cody holds onto Obi-Wan's saber in later years Obi-wan gave his “life” to Cody with that saber but also

He holds onto it for more than that…

Obi-wan has nasty nightmares as the two figured out and out of instinct reaches for his saber when waking up.

Obi-Wan and Cody are both sensitive to loud noise but Cody always noticed Obi-wans hand twitch to reach for his saber when something scared him.

So it was a gift. A sign of love. But also a sign of trust. I don't need this to keep me safe when I have you. I give my life and I give my safety to you.

And so that saber doesn't get much use now a days but that clip now sits on Obi-wan's waist and the weight is much lighter now.
