“He called her cat to give the illusion of indifference. It was only if you ever caught a glance of when he would spell it, ‘Kat’, that said otherwise.”
Pt 1 of Crosshair and Kat doodles! Totally gonna write some fic for these two. Follow up to my post about some headcanons of them!
Why does it look the same?
As much as I love sweet headcanons and found family fics about the Batch accepting Echo and supporting him through his adjustment and PTSD/trauma, gotta remember that what we were actually given in canon is this:
Hunter: Me and the boys will tag along anyway, if only to say I told you so. Crosshair: I would have left him for dead too. Besides, he's just another reg. (his rescue was just a mission for them, wouldn't have done it otherwise)
Tech: To be blunt his mind belonged to the Separatists until we unplugged him. We don't really know where his loyalties lie. Rex: Yeah? Well I know. Hunter: Alright Echo what are you trying to pull? Tech: How do we know that's what you're really going to do? Hunter: Well I guess you actually are on our side. (They openly doubt his loyalty even though they saw what he went through, and he already fought alongside them on Skako. Feels kinda victim-blamey to me, and it's odd that it goes straight from this to him joining them, like he had to prove himself worthy first? It's just the opposite of fanon which usually has the Batch be immediately sympathetic/protective and assume the regs would distrust him)
Tech: You are more machine than man, percentage wise at least. Echo, a triple amputee: *sigh* lucky me...
Palpatine: ...the attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed Wrecker: You can say that again! Echo, a physically disabled person:
Echo, who was medically experimented on: *injured and having a panic attack in the medbay* The Batch: *off somewhere joking/betting about if he’s dead*
Tech: -from the Citadel rescue when you... how shall I put this? Wrecker: Blew up!! :D Crosshair: And turned into that Echo: *sigh* yes
Random stranger: *mistakes Echofor a droid* Hunter: *smiles and goes along with it for the credits* Echo, who was SOLD and dehumanized as a pow: *visibly uncomfortable* Hunter: Echo, go to your new owner.
Echo, who was treated like property by the Techno Union: *explains why slavery is wrong* And we are gonna stop it from happening to that kid. Tech: As well as earn a decent amount of credits once the job is complete. Echo: (bitterly) yeah, that too *leaves the room*
Tech: The client being a Separatist is not relevant. Echo, who was imprisoned and tortured by Separatists for over a year: It is to me! Hunter: Forget politics! We're here to do a job.
Tech: This squad existed before Echo was a part of it, and it will exist after.
For the record, yes people can and do joke about their trauma and disabilities
But look at Echo’s reactions/tone/body language in these scenes. It’s downcast sighs and discomfort, while the others are smiling, sneering, or dismissive. And because it's animated that means that every facial expression was intentionally designed.
What really clinches it for me is this moment:
Omega, a child who he just met, comforts him and helps him through his panic attack. But when the Batch, his squad who he's been living with for at least ~6 months, comes into the room he visibly closes himself off and hides his vulnerability :(
There are good moments too (though tbh i can't think of many)
I don't wanna discount that, but that doesn't discount this either. And it's just really weird when you think about it. Like half of these were in the first episode, which is the first time we are actually seeing how these characters interact together as a squad. And this is coming from the "defective" clones who supposedly know what it's like to not fit in? Who offered Echo a place with them specifically because they thought he wouldn't be accepted by others?
As with anything, there are ways we can read into or explain these moments (like honestly 'selling' your brother or betting that your brother died by lunch tray is very accurate sibling energy (And my personal headcanon (to reconcile it for myself bc the show didn't) is that Wrecker was worried about Echo so Crosshair jokingly exaggerated that he was dead and turned it into an argument/bet to distract him (which is also why I think he turns battles into a game/competition with Wrecker)) but Echo is very traumatized and there's a complete lack of consideration there). But that doesn't excuse it nor does it change the fact that this is what was presented to us in the writing. Characters aren't actually people (shocking I know lol), so any of their 'choices' are actually made by a real-life writer. And whether the implications of these moments were fully considered/intended or not, it still portrays the characters and their attitudes/relationships in a certain way.
Chaos and Order - Clone Twin Week
So I couldn't help it and wrote a tiny drabble for clone twin week. The prompt is Day Four: Chaos and Order, and of course I wrote it for Crosshair and Tech!
Hope you enjoy!
reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something
omega, who has never seen or touched dirt before in her life: omg i love dirt its amazing!!
hunter, regular dirt sniffer:
he's still figuring that kid out

Hera: Kanan, my friend is coming over.
Kanan: That’s great. Who?
Hera: She’s part of the rebellion. She’s a clone named Omega. When I was younger, she and her brothers rescued me. They were called the bad batch
Kanan *eyes twitching violently as he gets traumatic flashbacks*: the WHAT
Excuse me sir, that's my Emotional Support vicious lurca hound
....soooo Batcher is fully Crosshair's puppy now, yes???
-spending the morning at the beach with him instead of Omega -sitting next to him at the table -staying near him while everyone was yelling -squaring off against the wyrm ("YEAH YOU BETTER RUN!!"), then going right to Crosshair to check in, then STAYING THERE while Crosshair has his moment with Hunter
If we cyber bullied a major studio into changing a movie once we can cyber bully a major studio into changing a movie again
a minecraft movie in an animated studio ghibli style would look so good. and instead we have the green screen of doom
Mutuals can DM. Mutuals can ask for Discord. Mutuals can rip open my corpse and huddle inside it for warmth.
I miss Crosshair Bad Batch He isn't dead I just miss him
I finally got time to work on a bigger piece and it had to be the bad batch!
I love these idiots and I feel so robbed of not having gotten canon old designs for the rest of them outside of Hunter and Omega
Also I wanted Tech back because he's my favourite nerd
I imagine this picture was taken earlier that day that Omega left to join the rebel alliance
random thought
Tech likes Paper
Omega: I hit an animal while I was learning how to fly a ship. Is this included in our insurance?
Tech: I'll fix it myself. Did the bird get into the engine?
Omega: No. Fish.
if i was undead i would spend so much time floating facedown in various bodies of water
