Kix's amazing confused disturbed Face. To whoever drew this I salute your genius.

Kix was quietly filling out reports in the med bay by himself. For once there was nobody injured or sick at this time so he was free to get through all of his work quickly with no distractions.
That's what he thought.
Without any warning a riled up Headshot burst into the med bay and slammed his fist on the desk.
"Kriff! Dear god why did you do that?!" Kix jumped out of his skin.
Headshot gave a little laugh.
"I'm wondering too." he finally said hopping over the desk, "you look cute when your working."
Kix freezed and Headshot died of laughter again.
"What do you want?" Kix said, face going red.
Thank force it was just them two.
"well if your going to be like that I won't tell you." Headshot Replied.
"No what?" Kix turned round, "I don't trust you."
"You. Me. Mess hall karaoke."
Kix gave a doubting look.
"No"
"why not?"
"I don't exactly do humiliating myself from singing."
Headshot was a little disappointed, "come on Kixy it will be fun."
"No, and stop sitting on the desk I'm Busy."
Headshot sighed hanging Upsidedown on the desk like a five year old instead, knowing the only one way to get this clone to pay attention to him was to do what he did Best.
"If I was going out with you right now I would kiss you."
Kix almost fell back off his chair, "can you quit it you Kriffing weirdo!"

The next morning Headshot woke up early. Kix was out at the crack of dawn to sort out medical supplies, Tup and Dogma were sleeping. 5:30am.
With nothing else to and no way in hell he was falling back to sleep do he put his armour on and walked out humming stereo heart quietly to himself.
It was winter on the planet and it was kriffing freezing! He had no idea how the other clones tolerated it. He went down to the medbay to find Kix and possibly warm up. He was about to look around the back of the medbay to see if the medic was there or not when he heard something from the supply room at the front.
"another head hangs lowly, child is slowly taken."
That can't be him.
"and the violence causes silence, who are we mistaken,"
The hyperthermic clone walked up to supply room and peeked in.
It was Kix. Sorting the medical supplies out.
"But you see, it's not me
It's not my family
In your head, in your head, they are crying,"
Headshots mouth was wide open. When the hell could this clone sing!?!
"With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their drones
In your head, in your head they are crying
What's your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie"
Headshot stood leaning up against the door frame quietly listening to him. When Kix was singing the chorus for the last time he decided to walk In. A second from Kix finishing the song Headshot knocked something over.

Kix spun round in shock to see Headshot just in front the doorway doing one of those anime awkward smiles (sorry I have no other way of putting this) waving at him, teeth chattering nine times to the dozen. Kriff it was cold in here!
"How long have you been there?" Kix asked.
"long enough," he replied, "your a really good singer,"
"It's 5:45 why are you here?" he walked towards the freezing clone trying to avoid the mention of him singing.
"I got bored so I came to find you." poor Headshot was hunched up shivering now.
"I thought I told you not to come in here." Kix gave him an unamused look.
"s..sorry."
"it's fine, your in here now, and good kriff you are freezing!"
Headshot was trying to act tough but Kix wasn't buying it.
"I'm ffine." he smiled.
He wasn't grinning, he was smiling.
Kix raised an eyebrow.
Headshot gave up. He face planted into Kix's shoulder like a shivering five year old.
This time however, Kix didn't freeze. He actually half hugged him back. Right now he was just a freezing cold tired boi .
"it's probably going to be warmer outside around the other parts of the base." Kix said.
"I don't care," came a muffled reply, "The whole base is freezing."
For once he wasn't trying to flirt with him.

Kix dragged headshot to a crate and sat him down on it. He went and grabbed a blanket and put it round him.
"You can stay as long as you don't bother me." he said.
Headshot did as he was told. He stayed cross legged huddled in the blanket watching Kix organize the new supply's.
As he got warmer, he went back to his 'normal?' Self.
"How do you work out here?" He asked.
"what do you mean?" Kix asked.
"Because it's freezing down here!" He replied.
"I dunno really, you get used to it. The medicines here have to be kept at a certain temperature. It's not that cold when your down here all the time."
"not to cold?!?! A kriffing wookie would be cold in here!"
Kix almost dropped what he was carrying out of Laughter.
"Really it is not that bad." he laughed.
"well if anyone's as hot as you they could probably survive an ice age." headshot smirked.
Kix leaned back from him with a very disturbed look, "you are such a weirdo."
"Thank you Kixy."
After nodding off for the last few minutes Kix was working, they both went off to get breakfast.

"I don't know if you think your smart but can you please stop stealing off my plate?"
The once cold clone grinned.
Headshot ate quarter of his breakfast, took a slice off Kix's plate and went off to the gym before Kix could say anything. Kix just rolled his eyes and went back to eating his breakfast.

He was perfect... an Angel of a medic. Headshot sighed to himself. He wanted nothing more to tell Kix his secret. But at the same time he didn't wanna die. Headshot wasn't quite sure how he made it into the GAR. He just remembered being different. Then as he got older his "magic trick" of impersonating other species became more dangerous than impressive. Nobody questioned it apart from his batch mates. And the fact the kaminoans never said anything either effectively scared everyone into silence.

Later at lunch the the karaoke in the mess hall started up. Most clones who were doing it badly sung funny or stupid songs. How all the clones had fitted in there nobody knew.
All but one.
"hang on," Jesse asked hardcase looking around, "where's medic man?"

Kix was sitting in the medbay, not wanting any part of it, anyway he could finally get on with the last of the reports. That was until Jesse and Hardcase came looking for him.
"For force sake he's here!" Jesse shouted as him and Hardcase came in.
"Why are you in here?" Hardcase said like Kix was in an out of bounds area.
"so I could work?" he sarcastically replied, not looking up from the data pad.
"Honestly your so boring." Hardcase complained, I swear your only in creshda because your a medic."
"someone has to keep an eye on you." he said it with no emotion but he was actually quite hurt by what Hardcase said, "anyway if youve come just to insult me can you leave?"
There was an awkward pause. Jesse and Hardcase didn't really know how to respond to that.
"We just came in to ask why you aren't in the mess." Jesse said.
"Maybe because I'm boring."
Jesse clapped Hardcase round the head.
"The shebsa didn't mean it. We just wanted to see why you weren't out having a laugh. You just don't seem as happy."
"Headshots nagging me to go, I've got a kriff ton of reports to get done after that last battle we had, I've got to take inventory of what we need, I had to get up at the crack if dawn ON LEAVE to sort new shipments then you come in here and insult me! Yeah I feel KRIFFING great!" he snapped.
Hardcase felt really bad now. He exchanged an awkward look with Jesse.
"Well maybe you could do with a break." Jesse quietly said, "Headshots doing something dumb in a minute." he grinned.
Kix finally gave in.
"OK I'll go. Just to see what he's going to do."

They Entered the mess hall just as one clone was being cheered off for singing the duck song. Next up was the clone who seriously needed a straight jacket.
Headshot jumped on the table and screamed out, "THIS LUNCH, WE GONNA GET FUNKY!"
He was doing the kriffing cha cha slide.
Kix standed  awkwardly at the back if the room as the rest of the clones joined In.
"FREEZE!"
"EVERYBODY CLAP YOUR HANDS!"
As everybody, besides Kix, was clapping, Headshot noticed this minor detail.
"OI KIXY! IF YOU DON'T START DANCING IM GOING TO EXPOSE YOUR SECRET TO THE WORLD!"
Kix had no real secrets. This was just to start a vague rumour Kix would never live down.

"KIXY!"
A shocked Kix turned around to see Headshot leap on him like a child.
"Dear Kriff!" he yelled as he struggled to keep his balance, this clone was bloody mental!
"I thought you weren't coming." he cocked his head to the side.
"he wasn't coming until we dragged him!" Haedcase grinned.
"oh so I'm not good enough for you now!?" he said as the four of them walked back into the corridor, pretending to be offended.
"Yes! I mean No! I mean.. Ugh!" he facepalmed as the others laughed.
"Yeah I guess nobody's good enough for a hot medic like you!" he fantasized.
There were other clones in the corridor who heard this and tried hiding their laughter. It was a well known fact Headshot had it out for Kix and nobody said a word because a lot of the clones shipped it which made it all the more funnier.
"Headshot for force sake can you shut up!" Kix hissed, face going red.
"sorry Kixy you just seem hotter than usual today," he shrugged walking the other way to find Mixer to prank Redeye then turned his head, "oh and by the way ya cheeks are red"
