#apparently reading every single published work that mentions kix wasn't a massive waste of time

@anxiouspineapple99 The good/bad news is that the Batch were never close to finding Kix. The battle droid piloting the cruiser that was transporting Kix tried to escape a battle by programming random coordinates into the hyperdrive navicomputer, and the ship ended up crash-landing on a remote Outer Rim planet far away from Serenno before the end of the war. Kix was never on Serenno at all; not even close. His story is still depressing as fuck, but at least it's not quite this bad.

The pirates went after the ship because they thought it was part of Dooku's war chest, but that was the twist of the whole story. After everything they went through to get to the ship, there was no treasure, no war chest. There was just Kix, and a shit-ton of battle droids.

did y'all know that Kix was part of Dooku's war chest and originally headed towards Serenno with the rest of it and the bad batch was so close to him without realizing or was that something i was supposed to find out at 1am while doing rabbit hole research for my fanfic
