HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!
and a merry boop to all <3
AU where like 2 years after order 66, Rex comes back to the 501st and gets together all the clone troopers left in the battalion and they all just kidnap Vader and take off into deep space. Vader doesn’t kill them because some part of him is still very much emotionally attached to his men, since they’re pretty much the only personal relationship he has left from Before (no matter how much they might resent him, both for his antics during the war and for all the, you know, genocide now).
Rex and the guys spend a few moths beating some sense into Anakin’s thick skull. Once Rex manages to make him comprehend the sunk cost fallacy (look, just because you’ve done horrible things and become a monster and invested all your time and energy into destroying everything you ever loved doesn’t mean you can’t stop doing that at any time) and get him some goddamn medical treatment so he’s not in constant pain, the 501st returns to Coruscant. And for the second time, Anakin leads the 501st Legion in a march on the Jedi Temple, which is now the Imperial Palace. Anakin confronts Palpatine. While Anakin is busy monologuing dramatically and ol’ Skeevy Sheevy is rubbing his hands together and cackling and going “good, good, use your anger” Rex sneaks up behind him and shoots him in the back of the head.
At this point, Rex isn’t sure what to do next, because he honestly didn’t think he’d get this far. Anakin gets out Sheev’s datapad, makes some edits to the personnel database, and then promptly fucks off to the outer rim to do some soul searching (later, Rex will hear stories of some weirdo mouth-breather in black armor carving a merry swath of death through slaver trade routes).
And that is the story of how Rex, at the ripe old age of fifteen, finds himself officially installed as the military dictator of the Galactic Empire. And it is somehow HIS job to restore democracy. Rex DOES NOT want this, but he can’t just leave, because then the best case scenario is the Galaxy reverting to the incredibly corrupt, oppressive, fake democracy it had been before, and he can’t let that happen. At the same time, if one more Senator bows and addresses him as “your Imperial Majesty” he might just jump out a fucking window
the only upsides:
-he now has the authority and power to arrange for a peaceful retirement for his brothers, with financial support
-the Kaminoans also have to address him as “your imperial majesty” and that will never get old
-he now officially outranks Cody

Summary: After the Baron’s stasis bomb seals Agatha in Mechanicsburg, KB is forced to escape from the Empire and take control of what little of the Heterodyne’s resources he has under his command. He’s not very excited about that.
When Uncle Barry reappears after eleven years, he’s not very excited about that either.
AN: Very largely inspired by Mixed Feelings and a conversation with @destiny919. Originally I had this written for the twins au (which is still going to be a thing! Enjoy the previews of that) but decided I didn’t like the direction it was going, so I had to scrap it. Still, I enjoyed writing it too much to actually throw it out, so have this fic of Barry being yelled at by his very (and justifiably) angry nephew.
The first week spent in the caverns outside of Mechanicsburg was confusing at best and a disaster at worst. As they struggled to determine exactly who had been inside the city when it was cut off, it became increasingly clear just how much they’d lost: the jaeger generals, the minions, the administrators, even the Lady Heterodyne. Things were looking grim. But even though the Heterodyne was trapped in Mechanicsburg, there was still another one outside the walls.
KB threw himself into organizing their forces with the fervor of a spark and the precision of an ex-Secretary. He set up in the infirmary and took reports while he treated the wounded. Most of his papers ended up covered in blood and bile, but by the end of the first two days they had a comprehensive list of their manpower, supplies, and rations. That was around the time the refugees started arriving.

my only complaint is that the paws appear when you boop someone and not when someone boops you. I want to be scrolling and minding my own business and suddenly get whapped by a cat paw
The chain travels to Travelers Hyrule and he starts finding one up dolls of all his new hero friends. They'll probably come in handy, so he'll hold onto them for now.
