K2 joining the droid family gives us so many great new things:

> K2 and C3P0 get along super well and become “these are the odds” friends and while Luke, and everyone else, act like they can’t stand it, they wouldn’t trade either of the droids for the world

> in the beginning R2 hated K2 because what the fuck buddy C3P0 is his fuck off

> since R2 is small and K2 is tall, R2 would zap K2 in the legs back when he didn’t like the taller droid

> eventually R2 realizes that two droids with similar personalities meant two droids to mess with

> R2 teaches K2 to swear

> “good fucking morning Cassian, what shit is planned for today?”

> C3P0 is APPALLED and ANGRY because now two of the three droids he’s closest with swear like sailors and what if it rubs off on little BB-8?!?!!

> BB-8 teaches K2 how to give a thumbs-up

> K2 starts giving thumbs-up everywhere to anyone at any time

> “damnit my blaster is broken!”
K2: *thumbs-up*
“NOT NOW K2!!”

> similarly, R2 teaches K2 to give the finger

> K2 often gets giving thumbs-up and the finger confused

> “happy birthday, Cassian” *puts middle finger up*

> C3P0 ends up explaining it to K2 because R2 wouldn’t tell K2 himself because he thinks it’s hilarious

> BB-8 loves listening to K2’s stories because she’s heard C3P0 and R2’s a billion times and K2’s stories are new ones

> it’s almost impossible to see one without seeing the others, the four droids are so close they even fall asleep together in a weird but cute kind of pile

> K2 will just carry BB-8 around and no one knows why, the little droid is perfectly capable of moving on its own, but no one asks for the longest time and when somebody finally does ask K2’s reply is, “she likes to be tall”

> K2: “no R2D2, I will not lift you up so you can “zap that motherfucker in the face” as you said”
R2: *angry beeping*

> K2 doesn’t really do nicknames, so he calls BB-8, R2D2, and C3P0 just that, their full names

> they’re as fiercely loyal to and as fiercely protective of each other as they are to their humans

> some asshole once made a comment about how C3P0 should just be scrapped already and before R2 had a chance to do anything K2 was lifting the guy up by the neck and telling him that he still remembers some old torture tricks from back when he was an imperial droid so why don’t you just apologize and hopefully I won’t have to use them

> R2 still zapped the guy though. Right in the nuts

> BB-8 also zapped him, but in the back of his knees because that’s as far as she could reach

> sometimes people don’t like that K2 used to work for the enemy, or say that BB-8 doesn’t really have a purpose, and every time the other three come to the rescue

> once in a blue moon is someone mean to R2 because almost everyone knows R2 is always ready to fight, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen, nor does it mean the others don’t come right away when it does

> the more time K2 spends with the other two droids the more he becomes a hugger (but only to his droid friends, if he tried to hug a human he would crush them)

> R2 makes all these insane bets with K2 mostly because he knows C3P0 would never do them, but K2 does

> they usually go something like R2 telling K2 that the probability of him shouting the droid equivalent of “penis” out loud during a meeting is low and there’s no way K2 could ever bring the probability percentage up and K2 takes the bait and lo and behold during the next meeting K2 shouts out the droid equivalent of penis and R2 just looses it

> and after a long, long, long lecture from C3P0, R2 apologizes and K2 swears he won’t fall for it again, but two weeks later it’s a new bet and–surprise, surprise–K2 goes for it. (this is an ongoing occurrence)

> K2 uses C3P0 as an armrest

> C3P0: “BB-8, I truly appreciate how well behaved you are”
BB-8: *says “shit” in binary*
C3P0: “ALRIGHT, WHICH ONE OF YOU WAS IT?!?!?!” (It was K2)
