Something Other, But Space Social Media

Chapter 25: that stuff is the least real stuff ever

Summary:

Or, debates on the existence of the supernatural.

Notes:

I AM ALIVE!!

it has been *checks calendar* a WHOLE FUCKING YEAR since i last uploaded!! so so sorry about that. real life got super crazy for me. no #ao3authorthings, i promise. i just got a job and went into my senior year of college.

while im trying to get back in the swing of writing fic, you might see some odd entries from me! never fear, i will continue working on the conclusion to this series, i just need some weird, self-indulgent, shorter (relatively, at least, this is me we're talking about) fics to warm back up.

Chapter Text

The following is a series of excerpts taken from informal, non-confidential GAR commlogs, dating to the third year of the war.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The best CC batch (ft children)

 

Wolffe:

That feeling when you're stuck on yet another haunted base...

 

Fox:

What.

 

Wolffe:

??What do you mean "What?" ??? I said it fairly clearly what's not to understand???

 

Cody:

I believe that he may be stuck on the "haunted base" bit.

 

Ponds:

Or the "yet another."

 

Bly:

Could be both in combination too...

 

Fox:

No, assholes. It's the fact that Wolffe apparently thinks ghosts exist.

 

Cody:

Yeah, I'd say I was right then. That definitely falls under "the "haunted base" bit."

 

Bly:

Cody that is far too many quotes.

 

Cody:

What? Is something wring with my use of the phrase "That definitely falls under "the "haunted planet" bit.""

 

Bly:

Oh my Force...

 

Wolffe:

Fox how do you NOT believe in ghosts. Coruscant is quite possibly the most haunted planet ever.

 

Fox:

No it most certainly isn't. Coruscant is a shithole, I agree... But ghosts aren't real. So, by definition, it cannot be haunted.

 

Wolffe:

Fox haven't you heard the stories about the ~things on the lower levels~....

 

Fox:

I've been on the lower levels.

Fox:

Again, not ghosts. It's just fucked up.

 

Cody:

Between "haunted planet" and "~things on the lower levels~" I don't know if I desperately want to know more about the strange galaxy Wolffe is apparently living in or if I don't want anything to do with it...

 

Bly:

Are you overusing quotes now just to torment me.

 

Cody:

To quote my General every time he needs to look Rex in the eye: "..."

 

Ponds:

Speaking of Rex... Is he busy? Usually he and Ahsoka would be all over any kind of bullshit in the chat.

 

Wolffe:

You just don't BELIEVE hard enough,,, if you believe harder they'll reveal themselves to you...

 

Fox:

That totally sounds believable.

 

Wolffe:

Now you get it!

 

Ponds:

Wolffe I think he was being sarcastic.

 

Fox:

Hm

 

Wolffe:

Oh come on!!!

Wolffe:

You don't believe in ghosts at all?? What about body-snatchers!! Or vampires?? Not even eldritch beings beyond our comprehension!!

 

Fox:

Wow I cannot wait to tell Padme that the CC for one of our key battalions is completely and utterly delusional.

Fox:

Just kidding.

 

Wolffe:

Oh Force, thanks Fox. If she shares any of your doubting then I really don't need her knowing that I know the truth

 

Fox:

"Just kidding" because I'm not waiting. I'm actually telling her right now.

 

Wolffe:

FOX NO

 

Fox:

You completely and utterasdkguasfiugasfksfugoasefihdfskhxfcseiufhfs

Fox:

"FOX NO" - says a loser

 

Wolffe:

I AM NOT A LOSER

Wolffe:

Wait...

Wolffe:

Fox... Why did the way you text change...

 

Fox:

i have no idea what you are talking about, commander

 

Wolffe:

THE BODY SNATCHERS GOT HIM!!

 

Cody:

Have you considered that maybe he's just fucking with you?

 

Fox:

commander,,, why would you doubt me? :)

 

Cody:

Wait damn I've never seen Fox use an emoticon... I'm not sure he even knows they exist.

 

Fox:

perhaps there are many things you dont know about mkashufdisfugsfu

Fox:

It was neither.

Fox:

I let Padme hold my comm then she dashed across the room. I had to chase her to get it back.

 

Bly:

And you judge us, Fox?

 

Fox:

First of all Padme could kill any one of you with her pinkie finger and I mean that literally.

 

Cody:

?? What the hell is that supposed to mean?

 

Ponds:

REX AND AHSOKA. YOUR TROOPERS HAVE INFORMED ME THAT YOU TWO ARE NOT BUSY. WHY ARE YOU IGNORING US. YOU ARE ACTING STRANGE.

 

Wolffe:

REX AND AHSOKA!! Are you ignoring us because you don't agree with Fox's slander?? HAVE YOU SEEN THE TRUTH AS I HAVE.

Wolffe:

DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THE TRUE EXISTENCE OF GHOSTS AND BODY SNATCHERS AND VAMPIRES AND ELDRITCH BEINGS BEYOND OUR COMPREHENSION??

 

Rex:

No, of course not

 

Ahsoka:

that stuff is the least real stuff ever

Notes:

*reveals that padme is chancellor in a meme and flees into the night*
