It was a hot and sunny day in the desert terrains of Geonosis, and much has happened over the last few months. Inside Academy has workshops used by the cadets to modify their battle droids, one of which is owned by Richard Mann.

His workshop has a balcony he could use to look out of the hive and enjoy the view, and sometimes he uses the open area to take a relaxing seat on his recliner under the glaring sun, getting a sunbath while droids are busy with their own thing inside the workshop.

As Richard lays comfortably on his Relaxo Rancho, he takes a swig of his bottle of scrumpy.

"Ah~!" Richard said with a satisfied sigh after taking a swig from drunk while the rays of the sun hit him, "Now this is life! Never thought it would be like this!"

Richard has never had this much enjoyment in the past few weeks and it's nice to enjoy some peace for a change.

"Aye, you said it mate!"

"Yeehaw!"

Okay, scratch that, two droids are relaxing alongside him outside the balcony with their relaxed rancho. There is a BX-Demo Droid, and a B1-Engineer Droid on either side of him, both enjoying the hot sun with their recliners and taking a swig of their respective drinks. Speaking of which, inside his droids are having antics that are not restricted to their TF2 Personalities. Some chatted with each other, some did mundane activities like playing chess such as what the B1-Medic and one of the B2-Heavy are currently doing. OOM-117 and B1-Engineers meanwhile are inspecting the team's weapons to ensure that they're all in working order for the next match-up.

Oh yeah for the readers from the previous chapter that wanted the Gonk Droid to be in the team, well...

"Gonk!"

"Mmphm!"

"Dammit!"

...Here it is.

In the corner of the room, a B1-Pyro Droid and B1-Soldier are playing pazaak, a Star Wars version of a poker game. I don't know, the author didn't know anything related to it. As the two played, with the B1-Pyro winning third a row, the Gonk Droid is just watching the two playing said card game.

The Gonk droid from the simulation ended up becoming part of his team after so many successes. Now you'd think Richard stole the Gonk droid himself but, /NOPE.AVI/ the droid followed Richard and the rest of the gang to the workshop like a puppy because the power droid LIKES being around these ragtag of Battle Droids whom he danced with.

Trench didn't mind as they have more Gonk Droids they could replace it with. So with a new member of the Team, Richard decides to TF2-fy it. Now the Gonk Droid is a walking dispenser, able to provide all munitions of all types and providing the ability to heal nearby teammates. And interestingly enough, it was given an increase in armor durability.

The other Team Fortress 2 droids, on the other hand, were either dancing the Kazotsky Kick while others were attempting the Conga line, basically all TF2 fun stuff they could enjoy.

Though quite noticeable. He has double the amount of droids than he had before, but the other half has a different color. An interesting detail to take note of for this chapter, wouldn't you say? Does he somehow have 24 additional droids? I wonder how that happened? *wink* *wink**willy wink*

"Stop it!"

No! FaCk U!

Anyways, Richard looks over and smiles seeing the droids having their fun and hobbies before looking out onto the mesas of Geonosis. But he eventually frowned when he was reminded of which part of the timeline he is.

He can't help but feel sad that in a few months or a year, all of this fun and peace would end with a proxy war that would expand across the Galaxy. And the more he thinks about it, the more his mood seems to drop.
