Echo Canonically Being Sentimental (and A Sweetheart)

Echo canonically being sentimental (and a sweetheart)

With his armor, there's also the "For Hevy" memorial, the fact he kept Rex's handprint, and that he put the Bad Batch skull on his armor before he even joined them

Echo holding 99 as he died has always stuck out to me as one of the saddest/sweetest things in TCW (especially since the show rarely actually shows clones mourning/expressing much emotion)

I also noticed that Echo is often the one to mention his brothers by name, and make sure they're remembered. And of course his entire thing about saving his brothers and leaving no one behind. (Also that he turned the call signs into this like nickname/inside joke thing with Omega is so adorable to me ahh)

And then there's whatever this is:

Not even a reaction to the name (and we know they are good at implying expression under those helmets)! I know this is old news but it bears saying lol. They had the perfect opportunity here to not only address Echo's loss, but also to honor Fives and the sacrifice he made to discover the chips. A sacrifice which saved Ahsoka, Rex, and now the Bad Batch. This is obviously not the first time Echo and Rex talked about Fives, he knows he's dead (I firmly believe he would not have left the 501st if Fives was still alive), but come on! This did the bare minimum to check the box of 'mention Fives.' How about you cut Wrecker getting attacked by a sarlacc or whatever and give that screen time to show us an actual conversation?

Like I found this bit in an interview:

While the conversation obviously never happened onscreen, Corbett says that doesn't mean it never happened, suggesting the two talked offscreen, saying "For Fives, I imagine that Rex and Echo had that conversation after he was rescued off of Skako Minor, and I know in Season 1 we did have Rex reference Fives on Bracca," adding "So, in my headcanon, they've had many conversations about Fives."

And I'm just like... Jennifer! You don't have to have headcanons, you are literally the writer! Show us!!

(Also he should have gotten his handprint again no I will never let this go)

See. We all love, Echo.

It’s so funny to me that when Echo convinces Hunter and Tech to try and free Gregor on Daro and says ‘you did that on Skako Minor when you rescued me” neither of them points out the obvious, that they had a full team, Rex and Anakin freakin’ Skywalker to help!

They’d do anything for Echo, even if tactically it makes no sense! Love those crazy brothers!

The Softest Skin

Have you ever thought about how Echo has the softest skin you have ever touched?

Not only because you spoil him with all the lotions and massage oil but mainly because he has no hair. His eyebrows and eyelashes remained but apart from that - it’s all gone. Have you ever touched a freshly shaved leg and enjoyed its softness? That’s how Echo‘s skin feels - everywhere. Touching him is a treat for your fingertips and you never want to stop.

Happy Echo Day Everyone ♥️ 14/09

I was informed that today is Echo day

Happy Echo day to my favorite child. Don’t tell the others

Great art of Echo. Look at the detail in his cybernetics.

Echo en detail! ✨ Brooding over a chess game with his annoying brother Crosshair, who loves to hiss distracting comments only to have a chance to remain a few moves more against this ultimate strategist ARC trooper!

My first bad batch drawing! And hey, my very first one, which is not a frame from the series but an inspiration from the gorgeous artwork by @thora-sniper ✨ Thank you 🫶🏼

This time I got some more confidence with my lining, shadows and lighting and think it‘s great for the fact that I didn‘t draw anything for years (blockades aargh!) until I restarted with Captain Keeli 🙈

What do you think about it? Let me know your thoughts about my artstyle and progression 😀

Crosshair en detail ✨ By the way, he knows that you‘re watching him trying to sidetrick, cheat and else only to bother his brother Echo and he doesn‘t care 🙄 But maybe he tries to hide a little smirk.
