The Clone Wars – 1×20 Innocents of Ryloth

Okay actually I was rewatching and I did notice something

This scene right here just before echo runs to the shuttle, he and fives are working together really well. fives is covering him so he can throw the grenades and they’re successfully taking out the droids and everything is going smooth.

But then later, after they lose echo, there’s a scene where commando droids are attacking and fives is trying to both shoot and throw a grenade (cause echo isn’t there to help him) 

And you can see him obviously struggling here, he actually ends up falling over while trying to get away from the bomb (stumbling before it even goes off)

And rex has to help him up

He moves very clumsily in this scene (I wish I could gif it!) In contrast to the earlier scene where he and echo were fighting together. I think this was probably done on purpose, to kind of show how fives isn’t used to fighting without him 

The Gauntlet starfighter is a sleek combat ship that also serves as a troop transport. It has a sleek primary hull flanked by large pivoting wings that contain the craft's drives. The wings are on a collared mount, which can rotate independently from the hull, offering the ship remarkable maneuverability for a fighter of its size. In addition, the Gauntlet packs a punch, carrying two forward laser cannons and a pair of rearward-facing cannons that flank its boarding tube.

- Ngl this episode made me a bit teary eyed. Can’t explain the feelings I felt when Rex disappeared into the fog.

The Walstrom Residence

You know what annoys me? Is how soooo many people can’t read between the lines when we have the whole conversation between cross hair and the squad saying I was one of you… bleh bleh. I’ll give you what you didn’t give me… a chance. Crosshairs story is actually sad when you think about it, he’s a survivor of order 66 and being experimented on which unfortunately a lot of people in the military are. Crosshair’s inhibitor chip turned on during order 66 like the rest of the clones, at the time however the batch and him didn’t know what it was and why his behavior was more ‘unyielding’ then usual.

Remember Omega saying she knew what he was going to do and that he couldn’t help it? How she asked him not too? She knew his chip activated. The batch didn’t realize their was something ‘wrong’ with all of them until they learned about the chips, and assumed Crosshair’s was defective because they all where ‘defective’ but they never went back for him.Remember how Cross hair said “Good Soldiers follow orders” and it is the same exact thing that Wrecker said before his chip went off and he attacked? It’s a tagline in the chip for them to say.

Crosshair feels betrayed because he originally didn’t have a choice, his brother abandoned him and then was experimented on to see if they could turn up the intensity of his chip. It wasn’t until season 1 episode 8 ‘Reunion’ that he got his chipped removed when he was burned. After this episode we start to see him slowly starting to wake up in small moments, fragments of who he was. His brothers abandoned him, didn’t save him from his chip & didn’t even try to save him. After abandoning him, why would he have go with them? They broke his trust.

So seeing Crosshair care so deeply for Mayday and the defeated we see him feel at his death and at the empire, everyone has abandoned him. After Crosshairs bad comment about Dead weight, Mayday still chose to save him; Crosshair had someone decent to put his faith and trust in for a minute. When the avalanche came down, Mayday still pushed him out of the way regardless of his attitude and saved him and not himself. Is such a pivotal moment because he truly sees who the empire is and how much they don’t care. Regardless of his anger towards his brothers he still cares and is learning.
