the way the clones and the Jedi’s cultures became so intertwined always gets me so teary.
Airo was literally the youngest of young for soldiers (he’d been named for a grand total of one day), and his dying words are still a Jedi / Force saying.
he didn’t have to spend years upon years with Obi-Wan for the Force- for the Jedi- to mean something to him. it just did. naturally. because he heard what the clones said about Obi-Wan and the Jedi and he trusted them and it wasn’t just him.
they all trusted and loved their generals, and the Jedi trusted and loved them in return. and that’s why Order 66 is SO deeply gutting
To love the Jedi, is to love the Clones.
To love the Clones, is to love the Jedi.
The same was true for them.
And thus, was their tragedies.
