Okay, I've been waiting for The Forgotten Droid to come up in the line so I could do Chopper bonding. And now we're here! Yay! It's going to be a different kind of bond. Kind of more playful and less deep but strong all at the same time... It's hard to explain, just read it and see what I mean.

Sorry if it seems bad, I'm honestly not that proud of it. But I tried for you guys!


"Chopper, please! I won't do anything girly!"

Chopper threw a few insults as he ran from Sabine.

"I just want to touch you up!"

Chopper ran into the common room where Hera and Kanan were sitting together.

Stupid droid.

"What's goin' on?" Kanan asked. Chopper started waving his arms as he told on Sabine for trying to paint him.

"Tattletale… It's not like I haven't done it before." Sabine reasoned calmly.

"Well Sabine, if Chopper doesn't want you to…"

Sabine huffed. "Fine." Then, bending down to whisper to Chopper, "I'll do it while you're sleeping."

Chopper whipped around and started a panicked saunter while the Mando' strode to her room. She sat for a while, thinking about her problems when she heard Chopper outside. She opened the door and put a hand on her hip the way she'd seen Hera do.

"Well, well, changed our mind have we?"

The droid came in, refusing to admit defeat, but at the same time surrendering.

"I'll do a good job, don't worry, Chop." The teenager assured picking up a paint can.

After a few minutes of silence, Sabine decided to say something.

"So, you getting along with your new friend okay?"

Chopper squawked his reply as 'New friend? He's my only friend.'

"Not necessarily, Chop. Zeb and Ezra could probably live without you-"

'Hey!'

Sabine giggled. "But, I know for certian that Hera like you, and I know I like you. I'm not actually posative about Kanan… But yeah, we like you. We're your friends."

Chopper groaned doubtfully.

"Aw come on. You know deep down that it's true.

'I know Hera likes me, but I honestly can't be sure about anyone else.'

"Well, you and I are friends aren't we?"

'I guess.'

"Honestly, stop being such a grump. No wonder you don't have any friends." She snapped. The droid shot back a retort. Sabine began to redo the trim when he jerked his frame.

"Chopper! You messed me up." She scolded. The astromech waved her off and began to hold still again. Sabine sighed in exasperation.

'You're a grump too you know.'

"Yes, but with a reason. You're just downright rude."

'Maybe I pride that.'

"How could you pride that? You're hurting people's feelings." She said incredulously.

'They know I don't mean all of it.'

"Uh… You sure about that?"

'Well, I thought I was… But that look you're giving me is very distressing.'

"I could never tell you were kidding at all. I don't think I ever would have known if you hadn't told me."

'Oh… That's bad.'

"That is bad! Chopper, do you realize what this actually means!" She cried, not in anger, but more in controlled panick.

'I didn't realize I was hurting people.'

"Well you are! You've gotta fix it!"

'How?' He asked, equally distressed.

"Apolagize."

'Are you sure?'

"No."

'I don't know what to do!"

"Neither do I!"

'Here, I'll start with you.'

"Okay…" She nodded breathlessly as she began to calm down. "Yeah, okay. We'll do that."

'Okay… You know, not everything I say or do is serious. Some of it is, but half of the time I'm just kidding.'

"…Keep going." She urged.

'More?'

"Definitely."

'…And I… I am very sorry if I hurt your feelings from time to time?'

"Good, little more."

'And I will try to let you know more frequently when I'm just teasing or else try to take a lighter tone.'

"Good. I think we've got it."

Chopper spun his dome and waved his arms in a some sort of victory dance.

"Maybe we should both try to be kind more often."

'Yeah. Can I see myself now?'

Sabine held a reflective object in front of him earning a satisfying cry of distress from the orange and yellow -and now with pink- droid.

'You said you wouldn't do anything girly!'

"It's not girly." She insisted.

'It's pink!' The astromech argued,

"It's salmon… Oh stars!" She cried as Chopper took out his zapper, sending her into a run.

"You wouldn't zap a girl would you!"

'You said girls and boys are equal.' He retorted.

"You know that's not what that means!"

'Do I?'

Chopper backed her into the kitchen, moving slowly and dramatically towards her with his zapping rod out.

"We have equal rights, but different treatment." She disputed.

'That doesn't make any sense.'

"It does, actually, when you think about it."

'I don't feel like thinking right now.'

"Chopper, Chopper, wait. Wait. Wait."

"Hey!" Hera called, coming in. "Chopper, knock it off. You don't hurt a girl."

Chopper beeped his objection before wheeling out angrily.

Hera turned to Sabine with a gentle but rebuking stare and asked flatly, "Sabine, why is he pink?"

"It's not pink, it's salmon."

"Sabine."

"All right, all right, I'll go fix it."

"You better."

Sabine rolled her eyes and went off to find the pouting droid.

"Chopper, we are friends, right?"

'Yeah, I guess so.'

"Good. Now come here, I'll redo your paint."

'Don't do anything stupid.'

"I won't." Sabine laughed.


Yay, Chopper! He's one of my favorite droids second only to R2-D2. This isn't the last of him, I'll do more in time. Please review, no flames, leave suggestions, stay positive, be confident! Bye!
