    Let me tell you I sprinted over here!

    Fives' eternal optimism and tooka-eyes at his vode is just delightful. Rex's protectiveness. Echo's pragmatism. Vader feeling that sense of loss and loneliness, but seeing the vode's lights and already feeling angry over their treatment.

    I love it!

    But also… no Sith would debase themselves and listen to Fives of all people, if they actually had a choice.

    ‘Aww, vod. Leave him be,’ Fives protests, twisting around to look at Echo. ‘He’s not going to try to escape. He promised!’

    Echo transfers a dry look over to his brother. ‘Protocols are there for a reason,’ he says, but it’s directed more to Fives than to Vader.

    ---

    ‘We’re clones. We’re not considered “sentient”,’ Echo says, speaking louder to be heard over Fives’s chuckles. He emphasises the last word with quotation marks with his fingers. There’s a slant on his lips, a bit sardonic and all mirthless.

    ---

    Fives stares at him for a bit and then flicks a few handsigns towards Echo that has Echo groaning.

    ‘Fives. No.’

    🤣
