We're Different Than the Rest

Chapter 9: Holo Night

21 BBY - 7 months after Geonosis

"Goooooood afternoon, di'kuts! Bring your pillows and blankets to docking bay eight at 2100 (9pm) for a holo movie night!" Reno said very enthusiastically over the Liberty's PA system. "You can thank your very own Commander Bly for the following rules: One, no visitors outside of the 327th. Two, no alcohol, but snacks are allowed. Three, it is mandatory." Bly rolled his eyes as he looked up from his data pad to Reno standing at the desk. "See 'ya then, di'kuts!" Reno smiled at Bly. "What?" Bly face palmed and walked away.

By 20:59, docking bay eight was full of clones in their G.A.R. sweats with pillows and blankets.

"Who's ready for holo night?" Reno screamed through the microphone, it squeaked in response. The 327th Star Corps burst into applause. "So we have a lot of choices, just shout out when you see one you want to watch." Reno scrolled through Galacflix.

"That one!" A random trooper called out. A chorus of 'yeahs' and cheers echoed throughout docking bay eight.

"Okay! 'We're Different Than the Rest' it is!"
Aayla leaned over to Bly. "So you're telling me three-hundred grown soldiers are choosing a rom-com?"

"Yeah. Wolfpack suggested it."

"You're kidding."

"Nope."

"I bet it was Plo's idea." Aayla snickered.

"Wolffe's actually."

The second movie of the night was almost over when Aayla noticed Bly was sleeping on the hard durasteel floor. She gently lifted his head and tucked her pillow under it.

Reno nudged Delta and gave a smirk. "See that?"

"Darn it."

"Pay up. I told you one of 'em would do something sweet."

"Fine." Delta shoved five credits into Reno's hand. "Happy?"

"Very."

Aayla put her blanket over Bly. She noticed half of the 327th was asleep and suddenly got an idea.

Thankfully, 157 blankets fit into four crates. Aayla walked through docking bay eight using the Force to put blankets over all the sleeping troopers. She smiled at her work and continued watching the movie.
