Rex and Anakin are undercover for an infiltration mission. Rex has to seduce the head drug queen/baddy lady, which, okay–fine.
But it doesn’t work. And Rex is flabbergasted. Still in character, he asks to know what her “type” is and if ther is anything he could do to change her mind (in a flirty way, you see).
And she says “I actually like your friend over there” *points to Anakin*
Rex, even more confused and 0 chill: “you….think he’s attractive?”
Anakin: Rex what the FUCK are you trying to say?
Lady: the devastating truth is that I like your friend there and not you
In reality, the devastating truth is that Rex thinks Anakin is ugly.
Even MORE devastating is when Anakin inevitably comes to the realization that every. Damn. Clone. Thinks this.
Anakin @ his whole company: you….think I’m ugly?
501st: *awkward crickets*
That one goddamn trooper: “I’m sure there’s someone out there for you, sir!”
Rex: *taking Anakin by the hand and sitting him down* sir…I don’t know how to tell you this….
Anakin: *already crying*
Rex: sir…….you’re fucking ugly
That’s why he was wearing lipstick and trying out contouring in the Ahsoka short for forces of destiny.
