We Love The Most Hated Clones Here, Sir

I like to think the clones are absolute dogshit at understanding nat-born's ages. Like, that guy looks so old, he has to be...uh... 30 or something. They get completely baffled when someone mentions their 9 year old daughter and get shown a picture of a young child. They find out someone who looks to be the same age as them is turning something twice their age, which they already knew, but still have this instinctive moment of “you've been alive how long???”

Vague silly idea on the Kaminoans being just. Really freaking confused by the clone cadets' behavior because their species needs are very different.

Cadets sneaking into the kitchens for pudding cups? Doesn't make sense to them because little Kaminoans only do things like that when they're lacking nutrients. Since their kids still learning the principal of taking-food-breaks-between-experiments that's not unusual, but the clones get regular meals calculated for their nutrition why are they sneaking the deserts??

Sharing sleeping pods against orders? Kaminoans have a much lower need for physical contact than the average human they do not understand the concept of "cuddling" much less "cuddle piles".

Wrestling while laughing or fighting but immediately turning on anyone who tries to join the fight? They don't have either a Cain instinct or a "he's an asshole but he's my asshole back the fuck off" thing, the concept of flipping off your sibling with love does not register as normal.

Feel free to add any!

Boba, given his upbringing and profession, views the world in a very transactional way

when he learns that the clones aren't being paid for their services, he's fucking livid and tries to go undercover as a shiny to organize a union

This is even funnier in a verse where Jango isn't dead. Because his preteen has suddenly run away to join the army and convince the "flesh droids" that they need to unionise.

It’s my personal headcanon that the clones bonk into each other all the time.

You can’t tell me these fuckers aren’t touch starved, and deep-pressure seeking. I wouldn’t be even a little bit surprised if every one of them was autistic and they’ve learned to show affection by bonking. (Bucket bonks, greaves bonks, full body crash, sensory seeking and regulating and generally teaching themselves how to show affection outside of the sterile clinical treatment they’ve known)

As someone who does this and writes the clones doing this…yes. This is beautiful.

I don’t know if you’ve read RepComm, but this also reminds me of the description of Dha Werda Verda (which is purposefully similar to the Māori haka):

“The commandos were layering rhythm upon rhythm, hammering first on their own armor and then turning to beat the complex tempo on the plates of the man next to them. Timed precisely, it was spectacular: timed wrong, a soldier could break the next man's jaw.”

…

“The blows looked real. They were putting all their weight behind every one.

Astonishingly, none of the initiates had yet timed the movements badly enough to receive an accidental blow in the face. Fi and Scorch demonstrated another sequence. Armor clashed. Sev abandoned his feigned disinterest, took off his helmet and joined in.

Then Darman appeared and they formed a line of four in the front.

It was strange to watch Darman actually enjoying himself, oblivious to his surroundings: she had no idea that he had such a powerful voice or that he could-for want of a better word-dance.”

Another clones headcanon

(My treat for being very brave about phone calls today)

These fuckers have been hiding their mental shit from surveillance since FOREVER.

It’s no secret that “defective” clones get decommissioned. Or *shudder* recycled.

But these guys are HUMAN. Worse than human, they’re human-a-la-Jango-Fett, famous for wanting and raising a son. (And all that bounty hunter stuff too I guess) If their batchmate develops PTSD, they aren’t going to let the Kaminoans take him away, they’re helping hide that shit.

this the kinda memes that would make rounds in the gar

Thinking about how the clones probably don’t know their technical birthdates but what if they just like choose a day of significance to them like some do the day that they left Kamino others do like the day they first shot a droid and maybe even like first victories idk I just think clones deserve birthdays or maybe they even do the day they got their name I mean just think about it 

I’m actually crying now

A clone getting a bad haircut and having an identity crisis

@here-be-bec Oh my goodness your tags are incredible! Ow! My heart!
