A while back, Midnight Luna and SharonMckellie requested something along the lines of a training session gone wrong. It originally started out as a fic where Ezra gets a concussion and is knocked out for a while, but I figured why not lighten up the mood a bit, mine included since I'm a bit sick... :(

Also, since I am such a kind person, review replies!

rebel-blueberry: BEEDO! BEEDO! BEEDO!

weathergirl17248: Glad to hear it! Love the name by the way.

sguti932: I wasn't planning on it. I was going to hope Season 3 addressed it. Sorry about that. :(

Disney Syndulla: I believe the voice of Ventress from the Clone Wars voiced the holocron. I like to think she is Darth Traya, but who knows? :)

Sakura245: I sometimes like dropping cliffhangers, as everyone probably knows by now. *coughBiologicalEmergencycough*

Teenylambofgod: Yes! Because Light Side cookies have raisins!

Midnight Luna: Oh yes indeed. :)


Summary: A training session goes wrong and Kanan finds himself having to deal with a loopy Ezra after a bout of pain meds. Requested by Midnight Luna and SharonMckellie!


Kanan was soon comfortable enough with his sight that he wanted to start touching up on Ezra's lightsaber skills.

"Are you sure about this?" Ezra asked worriedly.

"Ezra, it'll be fine," Kanan reassured. "I need to work on my aim anyway."

"Okay..." Ezra ignited his lightsaber, still unsure.

It went well at first. Ezra had his eyes closed so he could sense each stun blast going towards him.

"That all you got?" Ezra taunted.

Kanan smirked. Using the Force, he pulled Ezra's blaster towards him.

"HEY!" Ezra yelled, nearly avoiding a stun shot.

"You asked me if this was all I got?" Kanan sneered, the smirk not falling.

Ezra's face fell. Kanan set Ezra's blaster to stun and began shooting blue rings out of both blasters. Ezra laughed and got to work.

Ezra was able to deflect them all but soon, he was overpowered.

Kanan knew he overdid it the second a blue ring connected with Ezra's signature. He began moving towards Ezra as he fell, ready to apologize for getting carried away and tell him he needed to be more focused when he heard the thunk.

Even with his Force sight, there was no way Kanan could know that there was a rock right next to his padawan.

"Ezra!"


Ezra was awake a few minutes later, looking completely out of it as Hera shined a light in Ezra's eyes. She frowned. "Well, you hit your head pretty hard..."

Ezra looked at Hera, having a hard time focusing on her. "I'm training to be a medic. I know what a concussion is."

"Well, it isn't bad, which is the good thing. The bad news is you're going to be out of commission for a couple days."

"My head hurts."

Hera nodded and handed Ezra a few meds. She then turned to Kanan and handed him the bottle. Despite having apologized as soon as Ezra woke up, Kanan still felt bad. "Have him take these every four hours. You're going to have to watch him because the medicine makes him a bit loopy."

"Oh boy..."

It wasn't long before the medication kicked in. Kanan knew loopy was an understatement as soon as Ezra began rambling about butterflies and cookie dough. He sighed as he sipped his drink.

"Butterflies are pretty. I like butterflies. I also like cookie dough. You know, I wonder what cookie dough butterflies would look like. Or butterfly cookie dough."

Kanan wished he could still roll his eyes as Ezra continued his rambling. As much as Kanan wanted to put him to sleep, he was under strict instructions not to do so until 2000 hours. Technically, he could sleep safely but Hera did not want to take any chances until the medication had fully kicked in. According to Hera, it was 1400.

It was going to be a long six hours.

About an hour into the wait, Ezra stopped talking and began pacing aimlessly around the room, crashing into things constantly. Kanan watched the blue aura drift back and forth across the room and recoil with every collision with a white line.

"Ezra, sit down," Kanan sighed. "Hera will kill me if you hurt yourself again."

"Hera won't kill you!" Ezra replied as he sat down. "I mean, you love her right? And she loves you."

Kanan nearly spat out his drink. "Yeah, I love Hera. I don't know what kind of love it is, but yeah, I love Hera. She's just been too focused on the rebellion lately and rightfully so and I have a feeling she returns my feelings and we kissed a few times and-"

Ezra laughed.

Kanan's heart sank when he realized he had thought out loud.

"So you admit it!"

Kanan sighed.

"Detective Ezra comes through again!" Ezra cheered.

Kanan swore under his breath and his mind flashed back to the time he had (mistakenly) given Ezra kaff.

"You know," Ezra said, his signature suddenly right in front of Kanan. "You should really stop saying those words. They aren't very nice words. AP-5 told Chopper you could get disintegrated in six systems for saying that."

"I don't care what AP-5 said to Chopper. I'm not a droid."

"What if you were half droid? Would that get you disintegrated in six systems? And which six systems can you get disintegrated in? That would be nice information to know since Chopper swears a lot. I think you take after him. Or he takes after you. You swear a lot too."

"What?" Kanan protested. "I do not!"

"Do too!"

"Do not!"

"Do too!"

"Do- Why am I arguing with you like I'm a child?"

Ezra laughed again.

Kanan paused for a moment. It's been so long since he actually heard Ezra laugh regularly. Sure, the last two times, Ezra was acting off of his medicine but he laughed. Ezra was in no means fully recovered, and Kanan doubted he ever would be, but Ezra was showing some signs of normalcy...aside from the fact the he matured a lot over the past months. Kanan placed a hand on Ezra's head affectionately despite the fact that Ezra no longer had much hair to ruffle.

He quickly took his hand off of Ezra's hand remembering his concussion.

The kid really should have been lying down, but Kanan was afraid he would fall asleep, which would incur the wrath of Hera.

Kanan sighed and stood, pulling Ezra to his bed and sat him down. "If you stay awake, I'll see if Hera can put something on for you."

"Okay."


The rest of the six hours passed rather quickly despite the fact that Ezra was beyond loopy from the medication. He went from watching his show to rambling random plants to watching his show to begging to play Rock Paper Scissors with Kanan to watching his show to staring aimlessly into space to watching his show to-

Needless to say, Kanan was relieved when Hera came in and allowed Ezra to sleep. She turned off the show and told Ezra and Kanan goodnight before leaving. Suddenly, Kanan felt a weight on his shoulder and heard Ezra breathing deeply. "Uh... Hera? Did he fall asleep on my shoulder?"

Hera laughed. "Looks like he did."

"Are you going to help me?"

"He needs the sleep Kanan. If you are that bothered by it, move him."

"But that will make me look like a jerk!"

"Exactly. Night love."

Kanan shook his head. Ezra would be embarrassed when he woke up but he was still rather off from the medicine so Kanan let it slide. He knew he'd eventually have to yank down a bedroll and take the floor and let Ezra have the bed, but he was far from tired. With a sigh, Kanan slipped into meditation, an amused smile on his face.

"Don't get too comfy."


Ezra may seem out of character but to be fair, he was on medication with a side effect of being loopy. I think I got Kanan's reaction to it right though.
