coruscant has the space equivalent to the cosmopolitan magazine, including those celebrity quizzes pertaining to things such as "which actor is your bestie" etc. except they come out with an issue about the jedi INCLUDING "which jedi master would be your soulmate"
the troopers have a riot with this, the jedi amused just as much if not more (no one has heard yoda laugh this much since a prank some padawans *cough cough obiwanandquinlan COUGH* had pulled on mace). cody had refused to participate in the quiz no matter how much heckling he received from the 212th. on the other hand, obiwan is having a riot with it.
when obiwan hears troopers who got him, he becomes more friendly than before—overuses terms of endearments, more pats on the shoulders, smiling a little sweeter, those sorts of things. 212th troopers who got jedi like anakin or plokoon, obiwan just waggles a teasing brow and makes teasing little comments whenever they're teamed up.
it's rex that finally gets cody to take the quiz. some off hand comment about obiwan and his eyes or something along those lines. cody just yanks out the nearest datapad and does the questionnaire with much more thought than he ought to.
and what'd ya know—he got obiwan.
rex leaks it to the 212th and cody receives so much crap for that. obiwan overhears it and bc he is such a bastard, participates in all the teasing, just outright starts flirting bc isn't it so fun to see cody, marshall commander of the 3rd system army, become pink in the face from all the implications?
the next issue is of the high ranking officers of the GAR, including the clones. obiwan gets cody and anakin gives him so much crap for it as well. cody gives obiwan a taste of his own medicine

actually i'm making this a different post. i think that post the death engine, solaris has grown detest needing to visit the doctors. whether it's for little stuff, or serious things. it's not that she's scared*, it just dredges up old memories she would rather be avoiding, and more often than not she figures she can just walk it off.
normally, she would resign herself to visiting the zoraxis medbay if she needed to go anywhere at all. those guys have her medical history, at least... they give her treatments for the radiation. they don't have to ask questions about "what the hell happened" to her, because they already know that good and well.
post quitting zoraxis though i honestly have no clue where she goes. or if she even goes at all.

Rana!
From what I have seen of Moon, he likes wearing skirts and dresses.
Any sort of Sirius outside the story I've seen, he is, more often than not, wearing a frilly dress.
I believe that Moon cause Sirius in his hobby at one point, and decided "I'm wearing dresses too!" And SC and Moon have a bonding moment about dress styles.
(Coming from a real life perspective, men in war often wore dresses and pranced around to fill the spot of women. Even further back, many plays were all having men in roles, these men would dress as women to fill those parts)
You know, canonically, Sirius (Star commander) would refuse to take off his uniform to wear anything else. but if the dress is comfortable enough then I suppose he would
The other stars will wear anything and everything

I personally find Alpha-17 and Obi-wan to be a more interesting couple dynamic than Cody and Obi-wan, so it's infinitely funny to me that I have reunited the three of them in TOEAU.
On one hand, Cody gets to interact with a brother he's missed dearly and feels a little less isolated than before, because at least one piece of his family is returned to him unexpectedly.
On the other hand, he now has to suffer through second-hand embarrassment because Alpha-17 and Obi-wan were apparently a thing at some point, and they're currently going through a "divorced couple/salvaging the marriage" type deal where they either can't stand each other, or are giving each other "I want you" eyes.
Its awful. Cody is in hell.
This is what hell looks like.
The moment they reconcile he's never leaving his cave ever again because he's not dealing with that.

△Salvadore, it's obvious that your love for Daeran is true, but do you think that you would still have allowed yourself to love him if he'd had no title?
Salvadore raises an eyebrow. This time it doesn’t need the push of the magic to stir an impulse to answer this ridiculous insinuation.
He leans back, crossing his legs, but his eyes are firmly on you.
“I possess sufficient titles of my own. Although I’m willing to admit that the details about my stand in Absalom are complicated, I am the rightful heir of one of the city’s most influential families and my claims remain true. Aside from this fact and that my background may serve as a helpful foundation, I prefer to earn what is mine. I became the Knight Commander of the Fifth crusade, Primarch of the Wounded Lands and king of Mendev – through my accomplishments and proficiency and nothing else. Daeran’s name is a beneficial tool, yes, but not of more importance than an open favor in the right circles or sympathy earned by a skillful maneuver, only a part of a whole and dispensable would things have gone differently.”
He sits up again, now folding his hands in front of him while his elbows rest on the table.
“Or to phrase it even simpler: If Daeran lacked all influence, his fortune, heritage and the weight of the name Arendae, nothing would be different. – Not our relationship status nor my stand or the power and title I gained by skill, sacrifices and hard work.”

jotting down a couple of my solaris post death engine headcanons. hospitalization and mental decline is discussed, although not in all too thorough detail, so i suppose that's a cw?
saying that the medical team didn't consider solaris worth saving wouldn't exactly be accurate. but her condition seemed bleak, and her survival chance was incredibly slim
physical injuries aside, her radiation poisoning was the worst of it. when she was initially brought in after the crash, she wasn't expected to last even a handful of hours as a result of her exposure
said radiation also got all over her clothes, which- when you factor in that patches of them were melded onto her skin due to the sheer heat of the crash- certainly did not help matters much when it came to mitigating further exposure.
thankfully she survived the three hour grace period for severe radiation poisoning. then the three day grace period for moderate radiation poisoning. and then the two week grace period for 'mild' radiation poisoning… the treatments helped, of course, but her immune system hardly escaped unscathed. nor did her stamina, pain tolerance, hair, or the majority of her muscle mass
getting such a traumatic injury immediately after spending an extended amount of time in zero gravity wasn't exactly great for solaris' physical strength. once she was allowed to leave her cot she found it very difficult to support herself without the temporary use of axillary crutches.
she… did not like them. and accidentally made herself worse for a time by purposefully forgoing them. but it didn't take her too long to learn it was less miserable to use them than it was to collapse in the hallway in front of her coworkers.
the fabricator's company especially helped during that period… having designed her own prosthetic after losing her arm, there was little concern fabby would think her any weaker for relying on a mobility aid
the incident… really changed solaris' perspective on a lot of things. grappling with your potentially-rapidly-approaching death will do that to you. she was always a bit of a perfectionist, but going forward she started to cling to her mistakes with a lot more self-directed hostility. after all, it was, ultimately, her fault the death engine project failed to begin with
she also struggles with regret a lot more- mainly in regards to time, and the ways in which she 'wastes' it. another consequence of watching it slip between her fingers, half certain she would be spending the remainder of her life in a hospital cot.
she tries not to make either of these facts too obvious to her coworkers. the fabricator can tell rather easily, though. but that isn't the worst thing in the world. at least she won't weaponize any of it.
the day after she was let out of the hospital was the day she drafted her resignation letter from zoraxis. but she was too scared to do anything with it, or act on the urge to quit beyond that… it was a miracle she even survived to begin with. zor could kill her with a flick of their wrist if they wanted to. and it isn't as if she and the doctor were ever on the best of terms- especially not after her catastrophic failure. she… didn't want to tempt fate until it proved absolutely necessary.
she threw herself into building her imposing figure and nature back up almost as soon as she physically could. and while she inevitably became just as powerful as she was before the incident strength wise, her constitution leaves much to be desired. functionally, she's a glass canon. thankfully, she doesn't look like one- which is a fact that she uses to her advantage when necessary.
