It was a typical Monday for Ivan, Drone (first class) of the Galactic Space Forces, C Troop. Muster after a breakfast of space-gnoort porridge, and then a briefing on the day’s activities.
In the middle of the briefing, exciting news came over the ansible and was relayed to C Troop. Those damn rebels had been tracked down (finally) and today there would be fighting. They would be manning one of the blaster batteries, which was not in tip top condition.
Two rows behind Ivan, Boris was wondering what they’d be serving for lunch.
Ivan had other things on his mind. He was pretty sure that he didn’t like the sound of “radiation seepage.” And there was something funny about that Darth fellow too.

I always imagined the dark side had a smell about it… kind of vinegary.
