Once again, I'd like to thank all you readers and reviewers and everyone in between who has read this fic.
And yes; I know they probably don't have aluminum cans in Star Wars.
R2D2 (Artoo Deetoo)
A is for aluminum;
Intergalactic metal or alloy
Skillfully crafted, recyclable
So you can take him apart to make a new toy.
Composition was never exactly known
But if it was that'd be grand,
For we could say Artoo is going green
'Cause he comes from aluminum cans.
ggg
R, like rolling
On an oiled set of wheels
Scooting all around platforms,
Then careening off hills.
He could hover, if he wanted to,
In order to get around
But who needs all that fancy tech?
Hot wheels are fine on the ground.
ggg
T is for thinking-
Finally! It lives!
When droids have thoughts and feelings
How will we deal with it?
He was a clever, caring droid
But was he thinking or not?
Maybe he was programmed well,
All those lazy programmers thought.
ggg
O would be ornate
If he had medals, of course!
Saved quite a few lives;
And without him battle would be much worse.
A giant magnet of pins and needles
Yet somehow he's still needy
Of medals for courage, caring, and coolness
'Cause the other heroes are too greedy.
ggg
O stands for originated
From a real good factory
Along with all his fellow droids,
He had Nubian prestige.
Can we ever thank the engineer enough
For the brilliant job he did?
A hardy little hardware,
Made with love and care from within.
ggg
D is for disguised
As just another droid.
Another astromech unit on the Death Star-
It makes him look employed.
Sometimes this common design
Helps a lot
But if you're trying to hide him
How do you hide that top?
ggg
E is for endearing-
His whir will make you melt!
Though he's not really huggable
Would you rather be with anyone else?
Of course, your answer will be no
Because his loyalty's true
And you're so sure; you think you know
That Artoo loves you, too.
ggg
E is for exponential-
Plug him into a computer,
Or a starship, or a wall panel,
And he'll download everything.
And if you multiply that
By all the computers he's seen
He can barely store more knowledge
As it's rapidly increasing!
ggg
T is for treacherous
To his fellow droids!
What, he's on the people's side?
Thanks to him 'bots are getting destroyed!
Stick him in a starship-
He will fire at will.
To protect Anakin Skywalker,
He's always ready to kill.
ggg
O as in oddly shaped-
Tell me you don't agree.
Two funky legs, a boxy bod,
And a head that's sort of a 'C'.
It's good cookies and milk
Will never harm his figure
But melt down the metals
And he'll be disfigured.
ggg
O is for original-
Originally awesome, that is.
If you have a fascination with droids,
I'm sure it started with him.
Funny genius, and loyal-
Though not perfect 'till the end,
We all tend to favor Artoo
Because he's man's best friend.
Alright. Some of these… were really hard. I mean, oddly shaped? Exponential? 'Least I got it to rhyme.
Some folks have been requesting Ahsoka for next chapter. I won't reveal my opinion of Ahsoka right now, and I'll try to be fair and even if she is in next chapter. What do you think?
New poem for you:
Review button,
Review button,
The sound of your click…
…sounds like mutton?
Bah.
