unrepentant | ic contact.

Sometimes it feels like there's only a couple people here making real progress.

But that's what I mean. Whoever it is, they're the ones who decided what counts as "good personal growth" so if they really were trying to build an army, you'd think they'd give us enough rope to hang ourselves.

they already have? look around, dude

[Rex's powers are intact, as are Mark's. The terrain is dangerous and while some cars do provide the passengers with amenities like food and water, he can't help but shake that even if they do their best to be good and play by the rules, things just won't turn out right.]

whatever
so this place sucks and even if my number does go down
i'll probably end up in some fight to the finish

[Honestly, that doesn't sound too different from his usual life. The weight of that realization is enough to make Rex wrinkle his nose and do what he does best- Find a distraction.]

also, what's this about you thinkin the last car was the sexy one? so amnesia's the thing that gets u horny?

I'm not saying we shouldn't be suspicious

I'm just saying that even back with the deadly plague in that town, if they wanted us to go for justice then why have numbers tick up after killing Chadsef but go down for taking out the mine?

They want something. I'm just not so sure it's combatants.

[Maybe the difference between them is that Anakin has Obi-Wan and Rex doesn't. Not that Obi-Wan is always right (his friend has been especially pleased with himself since getting confirmation of their quest for self-betterment) but that there's someone else he can test his theories against. Someone else that feels things they can't quite articulate or explain. Telling Rex that he hasn't felt a large and lurking danger probably isn't going to bring him any real comfort.]

And I'm going to pretend I didn't read that.

you'd be surprised
there's all sorts of mind games people play
to make it seem like they're the good guys

[That is true. Anakin has, and will always have, Obi-Wan.

Rex has, and only ever will have, Eve. Robot, Kate, and perhaps even Monster Girl, are his "friends," but like his no-good parents and every other government tyrant he's worked for, in the present and the past, it's his body they want most.

A thing, a vessel. Something that was created and not born.

In that way, he is unlucky.]

holy shitballs u rly did screw somebody
deets????? 👀

[Anakin: Wow. I sure am glad no one's playing mind games with me to make me think he's a good guy.
The rest of the franchise: ????]

I JUST SAID I DIDN'T

it's cute that ur playin dumb with me, 'cause uh

[If Rex hadn't cemented earlier that he was a complete nuisance, well...

He scrolls upwards in their chain if messages and sends Anakin a screenshot. Look, the boy hacked his way into the Pentagon's security systems at fifteen, he can manage this. The douche sort of stopped trying after Robot wanted to take all the credit for being the smart one.]

u asked me what a keg stand was, so that can't be it
but as far as i can tell, the "last car" was either the sexy time car or big booby grab car and y'know what?
i should probably apologize, ahaha
since i was bein a teeeeeny tiny bit
redundant
with my wording, there, maestro

[THE WORST!!!! HE IS THE WORST!!!!!!]

so, who'd ya pork? oink oink lolol (🐷)
don't tell me it's the old man

[NOOOO!!!!!]

tho u do kinda strike me as someone who'd be ❤️‍🔥hot 4 teacher ❤️‍🔥
is that what he is 2 u?
i kno he's no spring 🐔
but he looks a lil 2 young 2 be ur real dad

[butt rex... he is anakin's real dad]

[The message that comes in takes Anakin on a journey. A face journey. A mental journey. Jedi don't discuss matters of love or sexuality because they're irrelevant- things that they aren't supposed to engage in and as a result, never come up. The clone army he's stationed with call each other 'brother' so there's no casual dialogue there either. The closest it'd come was seeing the pinups painted on Republic ships and the one that was absolutely of Padme.

He tries to follow the train of thought but spends at least half of that time recoiling to a mental chorus of no no no. And then embarrassment slides into sputtering indignation that someone could possibly impinge Obi-Wan's virtue. Of all people.]

I don't have a father
[Unfortunately, George Lucas decided virgin births would be cool in his space epic]

And I wouldn't tell you anyway
Maybe they don't want to remember.
[They]

Maybe they're embarrassed
Or maybe they regret it

yeah? well
i had two and they both got me fucked me up
trust me, ur not missing out on much

[This may, hilariously, seem like Rex had two shitty gay dads who were a couple... But he had two separate father figures in succession, unrelated. One biological and the other a mentor.]

bro did u nut on a pic of "their" dead grandpa or what
look, man, shit happens! sometimes people are too damn sexy for their own good, ok

[??????????]

just take it in ur weird space culty stride and uh
don't ruin any family photos next time
