Agreed, 100%.
I think the whole pregnancy would be a mix of feels for all of them, but then once that baby is born??? Wrecker is that baby’s best friend, they play together and he feeds it and changes diapers and takes it on walks. Crosshair is the sweetest uncle, so so tender, and even though he would rather die than admit it, he definitely smiles anytime he holds the baby and loooooves when it falls asleep on him. And Hunter would of course be thrilled, and protective, and he is as ruthless in taking care of the baby as he was in getting Omega back from Tantiss.
BONUS: Echo keeps a picture of the baby in his shuttle :)
For some reason I was looking at couples’ maternity photos (I have no idea why since I don’t really want kids), and I was thinking about what if Tech and Phee had kids? And then I was thinking which sibling would be the most emotional when Tech and Phee announce the pregnancy?
the chaos in "tangled ever after" but it's tech and phee's wedding
It would be unfair not to reblog this
This thought came to me at work today, but what if at one point the Marauder kept having issues with its navigation system or something?? And Hunter kept filing reports for it, but since he’s kinda lazy when it comes to reporting he just writes “tech issues” and hits submit
And then one day he gets a call from Cody, and Cody is like, “hey, uh…is Tech okay??” And Hunter’s like, what do you mean. And then Cody produces three months’ worth of reports that say “tech issues” and goes, “Well, apparently, he’s having problems…”
Crosshair never lets him live it down
“Tech told me all about your…SPARKLING personality” I wanna know what Tech told Phee about Crosshair that made her so confidently sarcastic in that moment, like
Tech: oh yes, our brother Crosshair. Best sniper in the GAR, possibly the galaxy. He always kept an eye on us through his scope while we were on the battlefield.
Phee: that’s ni—
Tech: sure, he is cold and unyielding and incredibly stubborn and a little arrogant, but he always means well. He does like to pick fights with regs, but you can’t blame him, after being bullied all his life.
Phee: I guess we all have our—
Tech: there was that time where he got super upset with Hunter for not murdering that Jedi on Kaller. Then he tried to convince us to murder civilians. But he abandoned us for the Empire after that, so it wasn’t really a repeating problem.
Phee: wait—
Tech: that was when he shot Wrecker. Oh, and he tried to roast us alive in a spaceship engine. That was all under the influence of the inhibitor chip, though. Supposedly he’s had it removed since then. So his murderous tendencies have probably chilled out a little bit.
Phee:
Tech: he also used to eat glue.
“No matter how badly led, ridiculously under equipped, under appreciated, no matter how doomed their mission, they take a bizarre and quite beautiful pride in at least being screwed more than everybody else and doing it with style. They seem to do what they do for themselves. It’s not a job. It’s a calling.” —Anthony Bourdain
This quote just reminds me of the bad batch 💛
Hunter chatting up Crosshair during a break, one of his dumb jokes even gets the man to smile for a second
Tech panicking while teaching Omega to fly the Marauder is so funny to me because literally the very first impression we ever get of TBB is Tech drifting the Marauder onto a landing platform at like 3,000 miles per hour
I said this to a friend once about Mandalorian S3, because I saw/heard people shipping Din and Bo-Katan and like. Idk if I really get the romantic vibe from them but I do get the “married for no other reason than tax benefits and are completely fine with that” vibe. Din wants to go bathe in the water of their obliterated home planet for moral redemption? Bo-Katan is like “ugh fine but you have to let me navigate.” Bo-Katan wants to take back their obliterated home planet? Din is like “do it homie, I’ll bring my kid, it’ll be fun.” No romance. Just support and tax benefits. It’s lowkey such a vibe
Where do I sign
give me one season of the bad batch but it's set during clone wars era, so it's just them being a squad together and going on missions and being cool in perfect synchronicity. it can be a mixture of before and after they got echo in their ranks. I just want to see them work together when things were a little more simple, when they were together. my badass 99s. please.
Me when my entire life is on fire: what would the bad batch do (they probably started the fire tbh, but they would also find a way out of it)
honestly it’s just me and my clone obsession against the world
Despite all of the controversy that exists in Star Wars, I love that we as fans have agreed that when it comes to emotions, Wrecker has the most brain cells, Tech is confused, Hunter needs a good cry, and Crosshair would rather walk through the halls of Tantiss with his clothes on fire than say any sort of statement that starts with the words “I feel”
