Summary
“How is your arm, Captain?” Kenobi asks again. Rex wonders why the General is so concerned. It really is just a scratch. He’s had worse on the training grounds. Kark, he had worse last week with those karking mastiff phalones. He can’t quite hide the shiver that runs through him, teeth clacking together. Suddenly, he can’t seem to stop trembling. Violent shivers tremor through his muscles. He can feel sweat trail down his temple even though he’s sure he’s never felt this cold in his life.
What is going on with him?
In which some of the Talz poison their spears, and Rex’s “scratch” turns out to be a “problem”
Or, Rex has really been carrying the team up until this point—now it’s time for someone to carry him. Literally.
Or, regret is a powerful motivator. When faced with the very real possibility of Rex dying, Anakin realizes just how much he has taken the Captain for granted.

Summary
“When was the last time you ate?” Kix asks suspiciously. Rex blinks slowly, trying to ignore the stars that dance over his eyes as he waits for the question to register in his brain. He can’t remember the last time he slept, much less ate, and it’s hard to think of anything but the way his head is throbbing and pounding underneath his skull.
“This morning,” Rex hopes that his voice has the right amount of casual and authoritative; maybe then Kix will leave him alone and use his time to torment the Shinies or whatever he does when he’s not pestering Rex to voluntarily admit to something that will most definitely land him in the MedBay and prevent him from making any progress in the mountain of flimsiwork currently burying his desk.
Unfortunately, Kix does not look convinced. “Uh huh. And just to be sure, what day is it?”
“Primeday?”
“Captain.” The way Kix manages to fit a whole range of disappointment into that one word is nothing short of artistic.
Or, after a long and disastrous campaign out in the field, Rex returns to find his desk entirely hidden under stacks and stacks of data pads. With both Anakin and Ahsoka recovering in the MedBay, it falls on Rex to keep the entire 501st going.
