Being in bacta is like being in the dacanting bottle again.

laugh


Ki made sure the bleeding was under control. I just wanted to sleep. He made sure I didn't sleep. Ki talked to me. We talked about things troopers never really talk about.

applause I loved that part, very introspective.

Hit. I got hit. My arm. I was holding out my blaster to blast some clankers and all of a sudden, I wasn't holding it anymore. It was laying on the ground at my feet. Luckily Ki was there. He is the most medically trained of our group. He knew what to do.

There I lay, my eyes searching through the beautiful blue sky. I felt the life draining from me. I knew I wouldn't die. Ki made sure the bleeding was under control. I just wanted to sleep. He made sure I didn't sleep. Ki talked to me. We talked about things troopers never really talk about.


Eerily accurate description of being severely wounded...nicely done.

Or, as the Mandos would say, kandosii.

Ouch.
And though it is a nasty htought, in a war like that with clones dying all voer the place there shold be more than enough 'spare parts' available.
Good to hear he found a friend again. Lets just hope he doesn't lose Ki again any time soon. worried

MsLanna Yeah spare parts! Ki should be around for at least a little while.

I've enjoyed your posts thus far. You've definitely grown as a writer. I'd like to see an all out story as opposed to the journal entry but none the less, I've enjoyed.

Spoken like a true Mando'ade.

I have done other full out stories as a clone. There is one in my signature! Thanks for reading!

Nice description. Even though it is disturbing to think where he got his new arm from.

*remembers stuff she read in the prequels of DUNE*

AzureAngel2 Yes the extra parts are a disturbing idea.

mujapple-juicey I'm not sure either, but they look like pretty powerful weapons.


Entry 18

Why do I keep writing in this thing? Oh yea, it's because I might go insane if I don't write my thoughts down. I try not to let on to anyone else that I'm writing. I pretend to be reading alot and to maybe be drawing. Clones shouldn't have feelings to write.

I wonder how other clones deal with their doubt and anguish. I've had time to think since I've been stuck in the medical ward, again. This time I got smart and I've been sleeping with the pillow over my head to drown out the cries and groans from the other people who are in here too. I don't want to hear that again.

Ki visited again. He says the other guys would come, but they hate this place too much. It is hard to deal with our own mortality. This place makes you look it right in the face because those are the faces that are staring right back at you.

Mortality...yeh, talk about the true looking-glass...

Pillow...not bad, but it would probably be more effective to use his buy'ce. Better sound filter. happy

Nice update.

I'll come and visit him - with some ear plugs. hugs
And I thought snoring roomates in the hospital were trouble. doh!

I can understand the others don't like to come. It's okay-ish if tehre's otehr people sick, but they just see themselves in all states of pain. worried

There is really, really no hidding from the effects that war leaves on the soul, more than on the body.
