crack AU idea:
The war is over. Sheevy is dead. Everything is perfect.
...except for the little bitty problem of how the clones don't have citizenship and aren't even recognized as sentient beings.
Jedi are scrambling to find a way to get the clones legal rights and finally realize that the easiest way is to just accept them into the Jedi order, which would grant automatic citizenship.
But you gotta be force-sensitive. Since they're all clones of Jango Fett, who was as force-sensitive as a rock, they don't qualify. (I love the idea of FS-clones but just not in this AU lol.)
Jocasta does some digging in the archives and discovers something interesting: an old old old law, SUPER old, that states that the spouse of any Jedi, and that spouse's immediate relatives, are automatically granted a place in the Jedi order, regardless of midichlorian levels. (Back when getting married was something Jedi did, they knew that that meant if the spouse & spouse's family was non-Jedi, they could be in danger/used as leverage against the Jedi, and this was a way to protect them.)
And clones definitely count as immediate relatives.
Chaos ensues.
I'm picturing a council meeting where half the Jedi just left to go find some Space Asprin because the whole fiasco is a headache and the rest of the people there are:
Depa, chatting with Shaak: I considered myself and Grey, but we've always been more like platonic partners. I know he sees Caleb as a son, but my feelings for him are familial and I know it's the same for him.
Shaak: I agree, some of the clones overheard me saying I would do it if it meant they'd be safe and their response was unanimously no no no you're like our mom
Plo, to no one in particular: Does it have to be a marriage? Could it be an adoption? asking for a friend.
Anakin, newly appointed to the council: wait so NOW we can get married??????
Obi-Wan: no Anakin, this is an extenuating circumstance, not a new rule
Anakin: we could make it a new rule
Plo, turning to Shaak: what if we got married, and then adopted all the clones?
Aayla, kicking the door open: I VOLUNTEER
...I have many more thoughts about this AU and will elaborate later.
*Wakes up in cold sweat*
I need Knights in my life RIGHT now.
I couldn't help it. I need these bots to be Knights or I am going to perish.
Among the 5 Dinos who is the best swords mech ever?
Snarl: That bad question to ask…
Clone: *sees a small, abandoned child*
Latent Mandalorian genes: f o u n d l i n g
Damn. She IS Galaxy-Brained
My galaxy-brained sister, watching Clone Wars for the first time and toward the end: ironic, Order 66 was almost stopped by Fives. Because 5 comes before 6!
Me, a lifelong Star Wars fan who’s seen the Clone Wars many times and never once thought of this:
favorite legends!canon fett fact is that jango fett has mild astigmatism and unspecified environmental allergies, which the kaminoans edited out of all his clones EXCEPT for boba, whose genetic sequence remained unaltered.
love to imagine boba fett putting in his contact lenses in the morning or popping space claritin and just muttering under his breath like "fucking kaminoans can't have done me a single fucking favor -_-"
My absolute favorite thing about the clone wars fandom is we have taken characters with little to no screen time whatsoever and unanimously with no discussion agreed on and expanded on their characters to the point where most people wouldn’t even know it’s not canon. Not to mention the number of phrases or events or whatever that we all collectively made up and accepted as canon with no material at all.
Like what do you mean the Domino Twins were never referred to as that in the show???
What do you MEAN fox’s face is never seen in canon? We all know he has graying hair! (I mean really the entirety of what we interpret about fox’s character isn’t canon)
The clones don’t speak Mando’a??? But they call each other vod!!
