“Traitor!”
Ok but I feel like this guy knew him and I want that story
Need to know the relationship between Finn, this stormtrooper, and the one that died in Finn’s arms.
I already read a fic that gave the dying trooper designation FN-2003. I need some fanon to fill in the gaps.
I think Finn made friends fast, boy had like six people shouting traitor at different points of the movie.
FN2187 was popular and his defection pierced the hearts of the entire fn troop
okay guys this is all explained in ‘before the awakening’ but here’s some stuff to fill in the gaps:
- there were three other FNs – FN-2000 (nicknamed ‘zeroes’), FN-2199 (nicknamed ‘nines’), and FN-2003 (nicknamed ‘slip’ because he was always a little clumsier and slower than everyone else). i am 99% sure that slip was the one who was shot by poe and died in finn’s arms because of how finn always helped him out when he fell behind like that was the closest thing to a friend finn had
- and i am 98% sure that “TRAITOR!” stormtrooper is either zeroes or nines
- finn was literally one of the best stormtroopers in the entire army like captain phasma noted his potential to rise up through the ranks BUT the only thing wrong with him was his capacity to care. that was what held him back from becoming the true Best Stormtrooper. finn was too kind and compassionate to be a good stormtrooper and honestly i think that says a lot about his character
- tbh i do think finn was quite a well-known stormtrooper because he received quite a few honors and phasma announced his accomplishments in front of a large crowd of stromtroopers
- PRETTY SURE other stormtroopers were jealous of him and his success THEREFORE they got really mad when he defected because they thought he was wasting his gifts
