I can't believe that I haven't seen this before!! If no one comes up and tells me that I'm wrong, I can successfully claim that I am the first person to fuse Caramelldansen and Star Wars. Awesome. This, by its very definition, is crack, so don't read it if you're looking for something serious. I apologize very much to George Lucas for messing with his creation in such a manner.
Junior Assistant Engineer Aru Spielchen ran up to Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, panting with the effort of running a quarter mile through the bowels of the ship. "Sir! Sir! Get the holo-cam quick! You have to see this!" The Knight, looking bemused, obeyed the young engineers request and followed her out to the balcony overlooking the main hangar floor. "Look sir! Look!" Engineer Spielchen looked extremely pleased with herself. Skywalker stared down at the group of around twenty clones lined up below. "I see, Engineer Spielchen. What is unusual about a group of clones?" The girl grinned. "Wait a bit!" She dashed down the stairs and took up position next to Ashoka Tano, whom Anakin now saw at the head of the group. Fiddling with a comm hanging off her tool belt produced a crackling buzz over the loudspeakers. "Okay everyone!!! Just like we practiced!" The clones all stood in ready position, waves of mild amusement floating off them. Soon, a very cheerful electronic tune crackled over the speakers, and, to Skywalker's astonishment, all of the clones began dancing.
They were all waving their arms around in the air, looking for all the galaxy like a group of Lepi, turning around in circles and occasionally crossing their arms and wobbling from side to side like that. Ashoka and Aru were the most energetic of the entire group, twirling around and leaping from side to side, beaming as the music continued and a very high-pitched voice sang something in a foreign language. Master Kenobi had by now joined the crowd watching the spectacle, and stared in bemusement as the entire group of dancers rotated in unison and began repeating the motions, only backwards. "What in the name of…?" He muttered into Anakin's ear as a few more laughing troops joined the impromptu dance party. "I have no idea." Anakin muttered back. "I suspect it was all Engineer Spielchen's idea." Kenobi rubbed his chin. "Well, I suppose it is good for morale….where are you going?" Anakin was walking down the stairs. "It looks like fun, Master. I want to try."
When he was actually down near the mass of dancers, he hesitated for a moment. He might look like a fool. But if his troops weren't worried, why should he be? Joining the group near the back, he began swaying from side to side with the others, feeling the rhythm of the music. "No sir!" Aru's voice carried over the music. "Put your hands up to your head, like this!" Anakin laughed ruefully, and obeyed, putting his hands up in the imitation Lepi-ears required.
The party lasted for only a few more minutes, but the 'Caramelldansen' trend spread like wildfire. How the music file and dance got off the troop-ship Skywalker had been on, no one would ever find out. But by the end of the Clone Wars, it was everywhere, spreading like a virus. Palpatine himself grew so tired of it that he banned it from ships. Once, when in conversation with Skywalker, he asked where the blasted thing came from. "Chancellor, I really have no idea." Skywalker lied. "But it's a cute trend, isn't it?" Palpatine snorted rudely. "'Nice trend' indeed." He muttered. Behind his back, Anakin stuck his tongue out, and, very briefly, shook his hips in rhythm to the dance.
Just FYI, Caramelldansen is a dance that has grown very popular at anime conventions. It's very fun to do, especially if you're in a costume with a skirt.
