Tech: Did You Know That Wrecker Once Tried To Arm Wrestle A Wookiee?

Tech: Did you know that Wrecker once tried to arm wrestle a Wookiee?

Wrecker: Hey, but that Wookiee cheated!

Hunter: That's kind of the point, Wrecker.

Crosshair: Speaking of cheating, has anyone seen Echo's latest card trick?

Echo: It's not cheating if I don't get caught.

Tech: I have a new idea for a mission. We infiltrate a high-security facility using nothing but rubber chickens and bubble wrap.

Wrecker: Can I bring my explosive rubber chickens?

Hunter: No, Wrecker. Absolutely not.

Omega: Guys, guys! I found a datapad that says Crosshair has a secret crush on a tactical droid.

Crosshair: Omega, that's classified information.

Tech: So, Crosshair, what's her name? Tactica?

Crosshair: Very funny, Tech. Let's focus on the mission.

Wrecker: I bet I can lift more crates than you, Hunter.

Hunter: You're on, Wrecker. Winner gets Echo's card trick secrets.

Echo: Hey, wait a minute!

Omega: Can we play hide and seek next?

Tech: Only if you promise not to hide in the ventilation shafts again.

Hunter: Alright, team. Enough goofing around. Let's gear up and show the galaxy what The Bad Batch is made of!

Wrecker: Yeah! Explosive rubber chickens and all!

Crosshair: Sometimes I wonder why I'm even here.

Echo: Because we're family, Crosshair. And where else would you find a team this dysfunctional and effective at the same time?

Tech: Indeed. Let's make this mission a success, and maybe we'll even get a break from Wrecker's explosive experiments for once.

Wrecker: Hey, I heard that!

Omega: Can I bring my rubber chicken, too?

Hunter: Sure, Omega. Just don't let Wrecker turn it into a bomb.

Echo: Alright, Bad Batch, let's go cause some controlled chaos!

Crosshair: Why do I get the feeling that chaos won't be very controlled?

Tech: That's the spirit, Crosshair! Let's go!

The Bad Batch: For the Republic!

I see a lot of posts about Domino Twins causing chaos in the 501st and while that's awesome, it's also during a time where Fives is just a little rebellious and chaotic and Echo is basically the responsible one.

No, consider: Present Day AU where Fives is alive and joins the Clone Rebellion. Like, you cannot tell me that ARC Trooper "I almost foiled a galaxy-wide 5d chess masterplan of an insanely powerful evil space wizard" Fives and ARC Trooper "I am the Revolution, God himself cannot kill me and I know all of your search histories" Echo would not be menaces to society on an unprecedented scale of Domino Twins insanity. Dave Filoni tore them apart because they would be too powerful together after their character arcs.

Fives would team up with his twin brother shortly after their heartfelt reunion, remembering Echo as a by-the-book stickler for rules who is 95% of both Fives' damage and impulse control. And Fives comes up with a batshit plan to infiltrate a highly fortified imperial prison, puts his hand on Echo's shoulder and goes "Little brother, I know you're not going to like this but we're going to have to resort to drastic measures for this mission." And Echo looks him dead in the eyes, nods and goes "I agree. We're going to have to assassinate the Emperor."

And Fives just shoots Rex a slightly concerned, questioning look. Rex just shrugs. "The Bad Batch radicalized him."

Rex has no control over them. Fives is like "You know how you told us to not act on impulse and consult you about plans first?"

Rex's expression darkens. "What. did. you. do?" and Fives goes "okay so Echo hacked into the computer on Tarkins ship and pulled up the chat backups of him and Admiral Rampart- did you know the latter has a shrine for Echo's former squadmate Crosshair?- anyway, we published Tarkins plans for invasion and also the porn he downloaded on his datapad to the holonet and now the citizens are calling for his beheading."

Rex just looks at Echo like "you let him talk you into this?" and Fives goes "Huh? This was Echo's idea!"

Echo: The invasion plans were my idea. Fives added... the rest.

Fives: Oh, Echo we should probably tell him about the space horse.

Rex: The what-

Domino Twins.

“Where’s Tech?”

“Outside. Something about aiwhas and a comm recorder—”

“What about aiwhas?”

“I…think he said they might talk.”

I sort of have a headcanon Tech’s interest in sounds, recording, and language started when he was pretty young, and that it started because he had some trouble communicating and being understood. Wanting to connect ended up naturally leading into curiosity about how everything else tried to communicate.
