Targets: Skirt

[mamuzzy]

 “Nice move,” said Ordo. 

“Nice skirt.” Fi indicated Ordo’s battle-scarred belt-spat, shredded at the hem like a flag that had been left too long on its mast. He wiped his armor, trying to forget what was smeared on the plastoid-alloy but the smell kept reminding him. “Really suits you. Hand washable?”

Ordo’s expression was hidden behind his visor, but his tone wasn’t. “It’s a kama,” he said, all ice. 

“Some day, Fi, someone’s going to belt you one,” Atin muttered. “And it’s probably going to be Ordo.”

He was right. But Fi didn’t know any other way to keep his gut from shaking at the times like this, it was how he coped. He was relieved and he was shocked, and now he had to get on with the job.

Fi survived jumping on a bomb and the first thing he does is taunting Ordo. He was so shakened from the incident, he straightout started mouthing with Ordo. Peak Fi moment we saw here.

Oh yes, Fi's coping mechanism is cracking jokes, even in the first chapters. He tries to make himself and his new squad happy, then nothing wrong will reach him :(

I wonder that before Omega, was he like this with his original squad too? When he started telling joked, they'd know that he is stressed up / scared?

Probably, it comes to him so naturally! he probably has to be REALLY REALLY apathetic to not care about joking. Like right after Geonosis.

But this was a near-death situation and Fi couldn't be THAT sure he would survive this. :D
