The UnTold Tales

Matteo and Rin

- Matteo was always self conscience about his freckles, Rin was always worried her markings made her look like she had a beard.

- The thing Rin loves most about Matteo are his freckles

- Matteo thinks Rin's markings are super badass

- Rin comes from a planet full of nature and wild animals, and even after being raised by the Jedi order, she's still got really good survival instincts and knowledge on how to live in various outdoor climates

- She's also a huge lover of animals, like this girl has gone up to some of the ugliest, meanest creatures out there and given them a treat and a head pat

- Matteo came from a large city, straight to another city, on a planet that is one big city

- He's got the basic knowledge down for the outdoors from his training, but he still might fall into a sand pit or get jumped by a enormous lizard for stepping in it's nest

- He likes smaller, cuter animals, and is Rin's voice of reason whenever she wants to pet an animal that will kill her

- Rin does not wear matching socks

- Ever

- Not even just different colors, but different fabrics and lengths

- Matteo is disturbed by this greatly for some reason

- Rin rolls her eyes and argues no one will see them anyways

- Matteo and Rin are the friends who can look at each other and have a full conversation telepathically

- Yoda has definitly caught on to this during his years of teaching them

- Rin loves art and tattoos, but can't draw to save her life

- Matteo loves art and painting, so he gives her small little drawings or sketches

- He actually drew a small design of flowers that Rin had tattooed on her ribcage

- (Rin showed Matteo and the poor boy nearly passed out from blushing so hard because she had to lift her shirt up fairly high to show him)

- When they eventually decide to become a couple, one of Matteo's ways of showing affection is giving Rin small doodles of herself or things she enjoys, like nature 

- She kept most of them in a small chest in her room at the Temple, but carries a folded up drawing he made of them both in a locket she wears

- Matteo loves the warm weather and the sunshine

- Rin loves cooler temperatures and rainfall

-Matteo never understood why because Rin is always cold (spolier alret, he's always warm)

- Neither of them are bad cooks, but Matteo loves spicy food well Rin prefers more savory foods

- Rin bakes to help relief stress

- Matteo decorates what she makes and then they share the goodies and give them out to their friends, teachers, and eventually their men

-Matteo can crack his neck super loudly and it always scares the kriff out of Rin

- When they were younger, he'd sneak up behind her and then do it, resulting her in either jumping in the air or giving a small scream

- (He stopped doing it after he accidentally gave Rin a panic attack because it reminded her of the sound of bones breaking on the battlefield) 

-Matteo can speak Basic and a little Mando from his time with the Bad Batch

- Rin soaks up language like a sponge and can speak 9 languages fluently, and 3 more partially fluently

- One those is Binary so she chats with droids all the time

- Matteo is 99% sure Rin and R2D2 have a gossip comm channel with Commander Fox

- Matteo and Rin are both introverts

- However, they also both enjoy a good time out once and awhile

- One of their favorite things to do? Go to a bar and play Moving Mode (basically the Star Wars version of Just Dance except it's 4D)

- They've done it for years together and are really good at freestyle dancing as well

- During the clone wars, in the rare moments they were on leave together, they introduced the clones to Moving Mode

- In Rin's culture, when you come of age ( you turn 17) you have a strip of cloth made by your family braided into your hair

- Matteo knew this, so when Rin turned 17, he gave her a piece of cloth from his bandana and braided it into her hair (it was a little hard because her hair was shorter at the time)

-Hair overall has a lot of significance to Rin and her culture, so she only lets people she's close to touch or style it and she doesn't cut it much

- The only reason she did eventually cut it was because in an attack, her hair was caught and she had to cut it to escape

- Ally and Ivan had the same relationships with Rin and Matteo

-Ally was the older sister for Rin, and Ivan the older brother for Matteo

- Matteo was incredibly close to Ivan, but before he died, the two split apart

- Matteo won't talk about it-ever

- Rin came to the Temple very young, and ever since then Ally has been worried about her constantly

- Rin and Matteo are both very smart, but not the best students because they can be picky about what they put their effort into

- Matteo is big on history, physics, biology, and literature

- Rin is more mechanics, math, psychology, and geography

-  Neither of them even try at Political Science

-Once the Bad Batch and the 104th were having a competition to see who had the best six pack

- Matteo was a finalist along with Wrecker, Sinker, and Bluejay (Wolffe did not participate) 

- Rin showed up and found out what was going on

- She won after flexing her eight pack

-Speaking of muscles

- Both Rin and Matteo like working out

- They like to go their own paces and schedules, but still go to the gym or training rooms at the same time just to be near one another

- Rin's is strong but doesn't like building up muscles immensely because she favors her flexibility and agility in battle, which can get slowed done by extra body mass

- Matteo though? This kid was a string bean as a child, so he wanted to become very muscled- and he made lots of progress

- Then he meet Wrecker

- And got ten times more muscled
