[...There's a conversation he doesn't want to have. He'll have to tread carefully.]

[It is personal. Why should he admit to something his teammates don't even know about? The fact that he was not born with his abilities is, in part, why he had given Samson such a hard time about losing his original skillset. If power can be given, it can be taken away, and Rex lives in fear of the day where he will one day be left as what he was originally- An ordinary human being with no marketable skills. Poor and unloved, with a talent for nothing other than the acrobatics and agility you'd need to run from the cops.]

i earned mine

[Rex decides to operate on the assumption that Obi-Wan won't go around sharing his personal business. The man doesn't seem like the type.]

passed all the fucking tests with flying colors
pretty sure the poor bastards before me were all gunned down
sucks to be them


[His words are callous, but he truly does feel sympathy for them, having uncovered a few confusing documents prior to setting the whole facility on ablaze. It's likely that they too were like Rex himself- The kinds of people who could disappear from their daily lives without a trace and nobody would miss them, the perfect text subjects for an awful experiment.]
