You know what is almost always on my mind while creating clone trooper and/or Jedi OCs? The concept of Jedi who were able to tell something was wrong with the clones when Order 66 began. Jedi who, for whatever reason, felt a shift in their troopers' force signatures and immediately knew that their men had been...changed.

I think it's almost more tragic than those who just thought it was a regular betrayal. Imagine knowing that the people you've fought alongside for years, the people who you've gone through trials and tribulations with, perhaps even the people you've thought of like a second family, and suddenly, all at once, feeling an inherent part of them just...die. Feeling their free-will be ripped out of them, and being unable to do anything about it.

And then realizing that now, those people are trying to kill you. They are still alive, but they are also gone at the same time. So not only can you feel the people you care about basically be murdered, but now their living corpses are going to kill you. You are going to die at the hands of the people you once loved, and you can't even save them from their own terrible fate.

That's what makes the Jedi&Clone Partnership/Found family so tragic for me. These People fought together, bled together and lived together. That makes strong bonds - bonds that order 66 just .... wiped out.

And think about the jetii'ad al'verde. Many clone units probably adopted their padawan commanders (with their mandalorian genes and the-adopt-ad'ika-on-sight). It ORDERED them to shoot their children. And for a mandalorian kids are the future.

Kids like Cal Kestis or Caleb Dume who where trust into this war and their friends suddenly just fired at them. Not in training, not a mistake, but bloody serious.

And it makes me just sad, that Cal in the game thought the clones just decided to turn on him. That they were the traitors.

He didn't know that they were just pawns in Palpatines game.

And he never seemed to realise or learn that fact.
