in an alternate universe, where Star Wars: The Clone Wars is first and foremost actually about the clones, there is a compilation video somewhere of various others saying "ehhcko" like Hevy does on Rishi

Wild how TCW actually showed us the exact kind of test that might've actually been helpful for Ahsoka to have to help her learn how to fight in a war.
Tumblr media
And it was designed by the Kaminoans.
This tested situational awareness, teamwork, marksmanship, adaptability, survival training, and a whole host of other things.
THIS is what Ahsoka could've done if they really wanted to test her in a situation she might have actually been in during the war.
Standing in the middle of a group of stationary attackers all by herself with nothing to do but block?
Fucking useless as shit.

Fives, coming up with a frankly terrible idea: I think we should do this.
Hevy, who somehow got stuck being the voice of reason: Echo, tell him we can't.
Echo, who was already running logistics the moment Fives opened his mouth: I think your plan is dumb as bricks, but man, I wanna see where it goes.
Cutup, running on spite and kaf: If we survive this, I want your candy stash
Droidbait, who just wants to see things explode and shoot clankers: If it fails, we'll just blame Fives.
Fives: Hevy's the defacto leader, though.
Echo: Hevy, then

Cutup: “Your so ugly the trainers tried to get rid of you at birth by putting you in the ocean but the Kaminoans stoped them and told them it would be littering and they should just throw you down the trash shoot and when they did that the trash shoot just spit you back at them.”
Hevy: “Your so ugly that dogs won’t even play with you and we had to tie raw pork chops around your neck to get them to come near you.”
Fives: *wheezing*
Cutup: “Your so smelly that a sewage plant could explode and leak toxic sulfur fumes everywhere and it would still smell better than you.”
Droidbait: “God damn!”
Cutup: “You know, I can’t tell which gap is bigger; the gap between your teeth or the gap between your ears.”
Hevy: “At least my teeth don’t look like those fake ugly teeth. You were probably the mold for those weren’t you? You gotta see the dentist son.”
Cutup: “Coming from the hoe who just had a cavity filled?”
Echo: “Oooohh!”
Hevy: “That might be but at least I don’t have a nostrils the size of the Coriscant memorial statues.”
Fives: *Wheezing intensifies*
Cutup: “You know what they say about guys with big noses.”
Hevy: “They have tiny brains, a thin intellect and an IQ in the negatives?”
Cutup: “At least my last few brain cells aren’t bouncing around like screen savors and killing them selves like yours.”
Droidbait: “Oh shit!”
Hevy: “Mirrors break when you look into them because they’d rather be useless than reflect that ugly mug you call a face.”
Cutup: “Brik always try’s to give you ugly looks but then he realizes you already got that covered”
Hevy: “Your so ugly that when new born tubies see you for the first time they immediately go into a coma.”
Cutup: “Your so ugly that when Prime sees you he gets nauseous and says ‘ew what the fuck went wrong there’ as he contemplates what a bad decision taking this job was.”
Echo: “Just murder him in front of us why don’t you.”
Hevy: “….. nobody loves you.”
Cutup: *fake ugly sobbing.”

Okay, I will preface this with I'm only a few minutes into watching the episode where domino squad trains on kamino, but hear me out.
Why do we think that Domino Squad has been training together since the beginning?
They find it difficult (impossible) to work as a team, they've reminded each other of names, they don't talk or act like they know each other well.
And why would they have come this far through training together their whole lives and still be this bad? No, they would have been failed years before this.
So, theory: the members of Domino Squad lost their old squads and have been shoved together right at the end of their training to form a new squad. They don't work together well because they don't know each other, they all come from different squads who favoured different tactics (and also their grieving the loss of their old squad).
Thoughts?

Domino Headcanon Time, Hoes
I am working on a fic for this post but it wont be out for a while because I have a dumb dumb idiot baby brain and will focus on it way more than anything else.
so in the meantime, here are alot of headcanons about the Domino Squad some of these are sad
Domino age order from oldest to youngest: Hevy, Fives, Echo, Cutup, Droidbait
Domino squad is an actual defect squad where as the bad batch was made to have their 'defects'
because they were defects none of their chips worked the way the were supposed to
Hevy isnt good at spelling. He's not allowed to send out any reports without someone proof reading them for him.
Fives is the motherhen of the group. Hes the only one who can safely get inbetween Hevy and Echo when their arguements go a little too far.
Echo was considered the runt of the batch, and was often watched for decommisioning. It was constantly held over his head, which is why he became obsessed with the rules. If he could follow their rules and hit all the bench marks then they would have no reason to decommission him.
Cutup loves music but has absolutely no musical talent. This does not stop him from screeching lyrics to the galaxies most popular songs across the base.
Droidbait is often left behind on accident, he has been left in the mess hall more times than he can count.
Hevy and Echos relationship wasnt always rocky. At one point they were pretty close but after the multiple decomming scares, Echo pulled away to make it easier for Hevy if anything happened.
Echo didnt choose his name, he didnt like it at all but the rest of the squad made sure that he never had the chance to introduce himself so he was stuck with what they had named him. In the end, he kept it because he saw it as the one and only gift he had left from his batchmates.
Outside of missions, Fives went silent for months after the citadel and the only person who could get him to talk was Rex.
Droidbait insists on going by db because its 'less embarassing'
Cutup was the only one to embrace their squads differences. He would would practically hold an open mic night on any other cadets who would pick at them.
the cadets around Kamino will often tell one another about the "Fall of the Dominos" about how three died heros but were never spoken of again and how the two survivors went insane from grief and one lost his mind while the other lost his body.
Hevy use to steal pudding cups for Droidbait when they were cadets. he never had a reason to do it he just would.
theres a dent in one of the walls in their pod room and no one really knows how it got dented (Hevy Kyled the wall)
Echo has spiral curls that he purposefully keeps buzzed down because otherwise Cutup would start playing with them
This is a pretty common headcanon for Fives but theres too much evidence behind it, Fives shows affection through boardline violence, he gave Cutup a concussion once after an overly affectionate headbutt. Droidbait has multiple bruises on his arms from loving punches. Hevy got shoved into Sergeant O'Niner once and was given cleaning duty for a week that he forced Fives to do with him. During their 501st days he got a little too touchy with Echo and he started fighting back and ended up chasing Fives to Rex's office on multiple occassions.
and yes i do think Fives and Echo are pod twins, its another reason why Echo was watched for decommisioning.

Do you ever :) think about how :) fives and hevy :) were both killed :) trying to warn their brothers :) something terrible was going happen to them :) and it happened anyways :) and their deaths meant nothing in the long run :) ?
Hevy sacrificed himself to warn the Republic that the Separatists were going to attack Kamino and guess what? he only delayed the inevitable!!! Kamino was still attacked! just at a later date!!!
Hevy hated Kamino! He was going to AWOL when they failed the test! But he sacrificed himself to save his brothers, and they still died!
Troopers died! Cadets most likely died as well! 99 died!
They died, and Kamino kept operating.
Fives tried to warn Rex and Anakin. He tried so fucking hard despite being drugged out of his mind and hunted down by the people he was trying to save. And he was ignored and he was killed and Palpatine won.
He saved Kix and Rex and Ahsoka (post mortem) and that's it! Everything fell apart like he said it would! All his brothers were killed as slaves to their own minds, or were abandoned by the Empire for something they had no ability to resist! And he wasn't even alive to say I told you so!
The only mark Hevy and Fives would leave on the galaxy would be giving Rex and Echo even more trauma and guilt. Because, if you think about it, Echo got to be on the front lines to see everything they died to protect be destroyed, and got to walk away every time.
Echo listened to Hevy sacrifice himself, and Echo got a medal for it. Echo watched 99 die in his arms, and he got to be be an ARC, Domino's dream.
Echo watched Order 66, he watched the chips be activated, and there was nothing he could do. He couldn't save Depa or Kanan or Crosshair or any of the regs because he didn't know what the fuck was happening. Rex didn't tell him about the chips. He had to learn what Fives died to prevent after it already went down.
He watched the galaxy fall apart in real time, not knowing Fives had died trying to protect it. He was there when Kamino fell, making Hevy's sacrifice pointless twice over, and all he could do was survive. The Empire rose, and all he could do was try to keep himself and his squad alive for another day.
Cuz Echo dedicated himself to the cause, and it was all for naught.
Echo wasted his entire life religiously obsessing over orders and regulations that didn't matter. The Republic didn't give a shit if he lived or died, and Palpatine was planning to take away his decision to follow orders anyways.
Echo kept going, barely pausing to mourn Domino, because he was a loyal soldier first and foremost, and it didn't fucking matter. He got blown up trying to secure the ship, and Piell still died and the information went to Palpatine, who still gave it to the Separatists.
Echo was tortured for battle strategies that the Separatists already had access to because Palpatine could have just told them. Echo suffered unimaginable pain, and it was just window dressing for Palpatine's show.
All the clones suffered for no reason, to the point that Droidbait died trying to protect Rishi Station, same as Hevy, and not even his brothers care to remember him. Because clones follow orders, and they get shot by droids, and they die, and that's it. That's just the life cycle of a clone, so why would you waste paint honoring someone who didn't do anything special.
Domino squad was so bright-eyed and hopeful. They wanted to serve with their brothers so bad, and they wanted to save their brothers so bad, and now all the clones are dead. They could have failed their test, become maintenance clones, and nothing would have changed.
They were all selfless, sacrificing soldiers, who fought til they fell for a pointless cause.
Except for Cutup, who was eaten alive at age nine cuz that eel was hangry.

I‘m currently rewatching Clone Wars (AGAIN, cuz this show is legendary) and I’m at the Episode “Cadets”. Just now I realised that El-Les was like “Domino will become the best” and I’m like, yes THEY WILL. I don’t care if only two of them survived, they are a unit and they would have gotten even farther together. I will never stop appreciating Domino - and each one as an individual as well.
