BB-8

BB-8 is a BB-series astromech droid who is owned by Josh Myers and Noah Rodgers. It has a dome head, similar to that of the R2 and R9 series astromech droids, with the bulk of its body made up of a ball on which the droid's head rolled. BB-8 is mostly white, with some silver and orange on its body, as well as a black photoreceptor. The droid was given to the two teenagers in 2019 as an early Christmas present by Michael Myers. It is currently unknown what role BB-8 will play in missions carried out by the Spectres or how it will get along with the crew's other droids C1-10P and R9-D2 or the Felth Family's other droids C-3PO and R2-D2.
In 2024, BB-8 served with Red Squadron flying in Josh's X-Wing Starfighter during a battle between the Forces of Earth and the forces of the First Order. He stayed with the fighter as Josh and Darius Carpenter confronted and eventually defeated the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. He continues to serve in Josh's X-Wing when the squadron is called to duty for missions by Tevin Felth.
By the year 2029, BB-8 would be working with Josh and AP-5 at McKnight Shoes. Notably, BB-8 hides under the store's chairs when customers begin to get temperamental with Josh and AP-5 about the size of their feet and the size they actually want until Josh says that the customer is gone and to come out from hiding. When Christopher Felth begins working at the store, BB-8 begins to hide behind him during confrontations between Josh, AP-5, and customers which Chris describes to Tori Rodgers as BB-8 trying to have an affair with his "". Josh also tells Chris a story that was either over-exaggerated or completely made-up involving a customer who lost their balance and fell after the droid got caught underfoot as Josh mentions that it took a number of and a crew from the to remove the customer from the floor. BB-8 later helps Chris thwart a robbery attempt at the store by getting under the robber's feet and causing the robber to fall to the floor where the robber is found by Kelly Felth and responding Stormtroopers being held down by Chris and BB-8. BB-8 later serves on the Ghost when Jacen Syndulla gives Chris a flying lesson that takes them to Onyx where they and Josh catch up with Admiral Eli Vanto after a near-miss with a smuggler who was attempting to evade Vanto's fleet.
Chris later tells Jason Oliver that BB-8's behavior towards his footwear may have had something to do with the influence of C1-10P. Like Chris, Remnant Colonel Curtis Morlandt also expresses his dislike for BB-8's fetishism and refers to the droid as a "Ball". When visiting Haddonfield, Illinois during the 2031 hunt for serial killer Patrick Carter, BB-8 is chased away from Chris' boots by Oliver's own astromech R9-G6. BB-8 also expresses his dislike for Morlandt's nickname to which Morlandt retorts that he doesn't like the droid "trying to have sex with my kicks". In April of 2032, BB-8 joins Josh and Noah as they visit with the Carpenters to see Tori's newborn twins Joseph and Jessica Felth. He later manages to steal Chris' boots as he leaves the Carpenter House.
