Thank you so much!! Will definitely be inspired for my first non-anon request 😀
(Altered the prompt slightly, it got angsty, so I added a fluffy scene with the actual prompt)
Bodhi’s eyebrows are furrowed in concentration.
“Steady now,” Cassian says softly, readjusting Bodhi’s grip on the blaster – leaning in too close. He steps away. “Now… watch out for the kickback… and… fire!”
Bodhi pulls the trigger and hears the now-familiar sound of the laserbolt missing the target and hitting ferrocrete.
“I think it was closer that time,” Bodhi says, more to reassure Cassian than anything else.
Cassian rests a hand on his shoulder. “It was! Just keep practicing.”
They had been at this all day. Cassian had been insisting that, as an addition to Bodhi’s training to become an X-Wing pilot, he learn to fire a blaster. But the grip of the blaster was not the same as the controls of a ship, and Bodhi had been missing all day.
“I feel like I’d do better with my eyes closed,” Bodhi grumbles.
Cassian grins. “I don’t think even I could hit the target with my eyes closed.”
A mischievous smile blossoms on Bodhi’s face. “I bet you could.” He hands Cassian the blaster.
