Fox has caf rants after every Galatic Senate meeting. His favorite senators and (mostly) him talk (rant) about how much they hate Palpatine. But it’s mainly just Fox downing 16 cups of caf while outlining even detail about what makes Palpatine the worst person to ever exist in the galaxy while the senators nod and agree. By the end, everyone’s convinced he’s going to leave the room and go shoot Palpatine on the spot, and to be honest, none of them would stop him. They might even come to watch the show
“if no art makes you feel anything, make your own art and feel something” is too raw of a line to have come from a jenna marbles video of her painting a rainbow/polka dot seahorse saying “it’s seahorse time” on a denim jacket
Hello Sir! Your armor is iconic. We all recognize and love the Arc trooper gear. It looks rather complicated though. How long does it take to put on?
Uhm... Well a lot quicker now, I have gotten used to it. I haven't had to do timed drills in a long time, but about... hmm... two minutes?
We used to have to do emergency drills to get suited up and ready for combat in the fastest time possible. Not my favourite part of training.
“I have a question about the humans”.
“Uh? What is it?”
“You know how they have to cover themselves up at all times?”
“Yes?”
“Why do they have to do that? It’s not like they are walking on inhospitable places all the time. They could just wear a karket to cover some of their parts up”.
“… Uh…”.
“What?”
“Have you ever seen a human before?”
“Of course!”
“That would answer the question”.
“It doesn’t? They have fur. They are just covering their fur”.
“They don’t have fur- where did you get that idea from?!”
“I saw a picture of them! They have fur! I heard they complain about the weather being too hot all the time. If only they wore a karket like we do…”.
“You mean, the fur on their heads? That’s hair”.
“They have a special name for that? But the fur on their bodies is the same…”.
“For the last time, they don’t have fur! Not thick fur, at least. They like to shave”.
“That’s… Not true. I can’t think of any intelligent species without fur or scales. It would be like… Seeing exposed flesh. They don’t have exposed flesh”.
“They don’t- you know what? Look”.
“I am looking”.
“Look at this. This is a human! Does this look like fur to you?!”
“W…”.
“Hm?!”
“What the fuck is that?! The fuck- the fuck?! That’s exposed flesh, but not really exposed! What are the other Earth intelligent creatures?!”
“There aren’t any other. Only humans and the robots, but they are basically the same thing”.
“You must be fucking kidding me…”.
“Show me what you saw, then!”
“Fine! Fine! Just let me find it- there! Right there!”
“… Dude”.
“Are you seeing it? That’s fucking fur!”
“Dude”.
“What?!”
“That’s a fucking monkey!”

Hardcase, off-camera: ayy, for once I'm not the one to break a blaster prop!
Dogma, angrily: shut up, you're supposed to be dead!

Rex, about dogma: he's wound tight, but he's loyal.
Fives, off-shot: *loudly* he means kid's got a stick up his butt bigger than Hardcase's Z-6 cannon, General!

I’m trying to prove something.
For some reason, I wonder what aliens think of sky diving, I like to think like this (H is human) (A is alien)
A: human... I did some research, and I have a question
H: Sure, ask away
A: What is "sky diving"
H: Oh, it's a sport where we get in a plane, fly very high... And jump
A:YOU WHAT!?!
H: We jump, but don't worry, we can land safely
A: oh thank god... So, you use some kind of gravitation device? Or use some technological device to land slowly?
H: Uhhh, not exactly....
A: .... Human... What exactly do you use....
H: ...
A: Human, what... Exactly... Do you use?
H: a backpack with a bunch of fabric... Sometimes silk....
A: ...
H: ...
A: YOU USE CLOTHING, TO STOP YOUR FALL, AFTER JUMPING OFF SEVERAL THOUSAND FEET UP!?
H: Yeah, but it's a different kind of fabric you know...
A: ... Okay, but what do you do if the fabric breaks, or if it gets tangled
H: ... Enjoy the view?
A: ... I still don't know why you aren't extinct
Whoever came up with this trope honestly deserves an award... every single one of them manages to do something different, and most of them are hilarious!
This is the worst timeline by Hittinmiss (6.6k)
this fic is absolutely hysterical from start to finish, with cameos from almost all of the Avengers and a (let's be honest) realistic number of vine references.
Mr Stark Enough For You? (another field trip fic bcs we dont have enough) by Livinei (7k)
this is one of my all time favourite field trip fics... the relationship with tony & peter is just written so perfectly and it is so sweet!
It's Above My Clearance Level by tsk (5k)
this fic is so funny!!! the sheer curiosity of all of Peter's classmates even when they are getting told they can't ask questions makes me laugh every time
Perhaps He's Not Missing Out After All. by NotYoCheese (6.6k)
this is just so sweet!! i would pay all of the money to see the look on Flash's face as well xD
The Field Trip by DJ_unicornsgr8 (8.6k)
i think the tag "Flash has no sense of self preservation" sums this entire fic up pretty well!
Definitely Worth It by jennylarner (16k)
Peter is not having a good day in this, but it is so worth it, exactly as the title says!
from your perspective, the world is flat by blueh (18k)
this fic has a lot more peril than most of them do, and i would say it's probably it's the different to the rest of the fics... but it is written amazingly, and i just love all of the characters in this!
so...that's all of them. if you have any fic suggestions or you want me to make a specific fic rec list, feel free to ask! and, as always, thank you to all the wonderful authors for writing and sharing all of these :D
Anakin requests hard copies of his casualty reports after every campaign. Rex hand-delivers them and watches the General disappear into his quarters - it will take him 20-30 minutes before he’s ready to transmit anything to the council or senate. For two years, Rex doesn’t think much of the little routine.
Then the Resolute is ambushed during Skywalker’s prep time. The General bursts out of his quarters and asks Rex to finish up the transmission while he joins the dogfight outside.
On his desk, the casualty report. Beside each CT number on the list, in bunched, angular handwriting, is each clone’s name. This is the sheet going straight to the senate - perhaps the only legal document on which their actual names would ever be found. Skywalker immortalizing them in the only way he can.
Rex completes the list in his own sharp scrawl. It sends successfully, and he and the General never discuss it. But when he can, Rex hangs in the hall outside Skywalker’s quarters after delivering the reports, guarding the sacred space. It’s never lost on him - this may be the closest thing to a funeral the fallen 501st will get.
I built a nap hole in my closet which is great and has no downside until someone comes into my room looking for me and I have to crawl out of my closet which is frankly impossible to do with dignity and without looking like a sleepy Gollum hissing “what does it wants who wakes us up”
