[snotbuggle]

No idea if the 200 followers requests are still open but:

Baby Bad Batch. Boys but smol. Wrecker but Lula is half his size. Tech and his very oversized goggles. Crosshair found a sniper rifle but it's twice as big as he is. They're adorable and they know how to use that fact (to get sweets)

They’re not the best since I haven’t had a lot of time recently (and I admittedly spent a lil too much time on the ‘bonus’) but I loved drawing lil Crosshair and Tech :( <3

+Domino bonus because I can’t not draw Echo

Here’s some captioning in case the quality and/or my penmanship are too crap to read for the last one

Bg Kaminoan 1: Their behavior will require some work. 782 and 1409 clash often. However, they seem to still prefer working with each other rather than others...

Bg Kaminoan 2: Similarly, 782 shows significant creativity. And, when not a bickering with him, 1409 shares his problem-solving skills.

Bg Kaminoan 1: They seem to work better together when 5555 and 4040 are placed with them.

Bg Kaminoan 2: 2010 could use the rough environment with these cadets. Build him a voice of input.

Crosshair: HEY, a couple of regs are fighting

Hunter: Oh, finally

Echo: 782 GIVE ME MY DATA PAD BACK

Crosshair: That kid's ‘bout to get socked

Hevy: Oooo- It must be bad if you're so defensive…

Oh my maker it’s a rule book. You’re such a nerd, 14.

Hunter: Pissed one looks like he’s got one powerful left hook

A Friend Indeed

Summary: Two years into settling on Pabu, Crosshair reluctantly finds solace in some familiar places.

Warnings: hurt/comfort, cute brotherly fluff, descriptions of PTSD, descriptions of sleep paralysis symptoms, recurring nightmares involving medical trauma (nothing described), heightened anxiety around dates, grief processing, mental health probs, just wrecker and crosshair being adorable brothers with their emotional support animals.

Word Count: ~1,800

A/N: this is the first work I've ever posted. It started as a completely self indulgent drabble of Crosshair bonding with a scrungly stray island cat (still in progress), but I loved writing this brotherly exchange between Crosshair and Wrecker so much it kinda turned into something else entirely by the end? This story falls in line with my HCs that Wrecker is the mediator middle child, Tech is still alive and on Pabu with his family, and that he's an awful snorer. Proofread by me.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"And how is this supposed to help?" Crosshair seethed, looking down at the plush tooka doll his brother just shoved into his hand. "I don't need this, Wrecker."

"Oh come on, Crosshair, don't pretend like you didn't borrow Lula when we were younger...like that time you had nightmares after falling off the--"

"Stow it," Crosshair growled, throwing the doll back at his brother, but Wrecker, being used to his brother's temperament, dodged it easily. It tumbled to the floor and Batcher, who had been eyeing the tooka during their entire exchange, didn't hesitate to scoop it up and wiggle her hind quarters, hoping one of them would start a game of chase.

"Listen, I still get them too..." Wrecker said quietly as he took a step towards Crosshair, his hand resting on the sniper's shoulder with a gentle squeeze.

"Want to tell me about it?" He was no stranger to navigating Crosshair's anger. Especially now, after two years of them living on Pabu, two years into recovering mentally and physically from their experiences with the Republic and the Empire, two years of healing the bonds between one another. Wrecker knew that it was always a cover for something more nuanced. So, he was quiet and let Crosshair percolate with his thoughts before he spoke about what was bothering him. After a few moments, Crosshair grumbled, resisting the urge to shrug his shoulder free, but the wall he put up cracked just enough.

"It's just..." Crosshair’s hand clenched into a fist at his side. Batcher flopped down on her bed dramatically at being ignored, still holding the tooka gently in her mouth. "It's not just the nightmares..." he mumbled. Wrecker took a half step back, eyes soft and trained on his brother's deep furrowed brow and scowl at opening up like this. But Wrecker was patient.

When Crosshair continued, his voice was barely a whisper, "Sometimes when I wake up I'm still stuck there and...I can't...I can't move..." he trailed off, his mind flitting back to that morning.

He'd woken from the dream, or so he thought. Tantiss' medical droids were still swirling in his periphery, the smell of disinfectant still sharp in his nose. His nervous system immediately reacted, seeking to lash out, to escape, but his body didn't respond- for a horrible moment he thought he might be strapped down again but no, nothing was biting into his skin, he simply couldn't move. He tried to speak, but the words remained on his tongue.

No. He thought bitterly. They're not here. I'm not there.

He kept repeating this in his head, almost like a mantra as the panic coursed through his body. The droid never came close enough to touch him, but still close enough to be a threat. It felt like an eternity until his tunneled vision brightened slightly, the bits and pieces started to fade, and his bedroom in his Pabu home came into the forefront. He could finally feel his limbs thawing, the weight of the blanket on his feet, the rising sun casting speckles on the wall, the sound of seabirds calling in the distance. These things helped ground him enough to remember his training, he slowed his breathing in an attempt to quiet his pounding heart. It worked, but it didn't quiet completely, not until he could feel his toes wiggle.

Wrecker's warm hand gave his shoulder another squeeze, gently bringing Crosshair back to the present moment. Crosshair glanced up at his brother's scarred face, into his concerned, mismatched eyes for a fleeting moment before shaking his head and casting his eyes back downward. Wrecker was always a good listener despite his boisterous demeanor. He never tried to talk Crosshair out of how he was feeling, or suggest solutions unless asked. He was content to be an ear to bend and a shoulder to lean on.

And Crosshair would rather be slowly digested by that massive tentacled sea creature in the bay than have all of his family members concern be directed towards him. Hunter watched and hovered too much and it only frustrated Crosshair more. Tech would listen and be sure to provide the most annoyingly practical solution. Echo was his first choice to go to about this specific issue, but he was away again and difficult to get a hold of these days. Omega, his heart softened a little thinking of her. She would drag him to the cliffs and insist they meditate, look at him with those kind, concerned eyes. His eyes.

No. Absolutely not. Wrecker was his best option at not driving Crosshair back into himself. And he was so tired, so the wall came down a bit further. He looked up quickly again to make sure Wrecker was still listening. He always was.

"And they're...often," The sniper's lips pressed into a thin line. "Almost every morning this past week," Crosshair continued. "And sometimes in the middle of the night, which are the worst," he spat out so quickly it took Wrecker a second to process what he said.

"This happened last year around this time too," Wrecker thought out loud. Crosshair cringed at the realization he'd already known, but grunted in affirmation. He had learned that sometimes this is how it goes, especially around dates with any significance, and they returned from Tantiss for the last time on this day two years ago.

Wrecker looked thoughtful for a moment before his face brightened at a sudden idea. He strode around the room and started gathering the cushions and pillows, tossing them into a pile in front of the couch.

"What are you doing?" Crosshair drawled wearily, his eyes following Wreckers movements. He was already regretting his decision to speak more freely about this.

"I'm getting comfy," Wrecker said plainly as he settled down amidst the pile of pillows, leaning back against the couch. Batcher took this as an invitation to dig out her own spot at Wrecker's side, Lula in tow, settling down with it under her chin. "See?" he said, his tone light. "Let's camp out here!" He said spreading his arms wide before returning his hands to the back of his head. "You know like back on Kamino in the training storage room whenever Tech would snore too loud?" He grinned at the memory. "Hunter would always find us and act all annoyed but he just always wanted to know where we were...and get away from Tech's snoring,"

"Still does," Crosshair snorted, one corner of his mouth curling up slightly. Admiration for his brothers pulled him out of his resolute melancholy a little more. He settled down on the other side of Batcher, resting his arm over her back like he'd done a thousand times before. The hound grumbled at him when he lifted her chin gently to retrieve Lula.

"No." Crosshair said firmly. Batcher's eyes still followed the doll but she settled back down. He held Lula before him, taking in the tattered fabric, the stains, the patches added to mend rips and burns. One of her ears was almost completely gone.

"This thing is...disgusting," Crosshair scoffed quietly, it was almost a chuckle.

"Yeah, it is," Wrecker laughed heartily. "But she's been with us the whole time. Look..." he said pointing at the burn across the doll's back. "That's from when those clanker disrupters I made for your fire puncher went off in the barracks, remember?" He smiled widely remembering how angry Tech was at them for setting his bed on fire, while he was still in it. And Wrecker's, but that was nothing new back then. He continued regaling Crosshair with anecdotes about how the blemishes were made over the years.

Wrecker suddenly yawned, stretching and settling further into the nest, "Alright if I sleep here tonight," he said drowsily, more a statement than a question, his eyes still bright. Stars, he was a terrible liar, but Crosshair appreciated his attempts to not wound his pride. To give Crosshair the choice for his company without having to ask for it.

He was working on it.

"I suppose," he drawled. It was already late when his brother came by to check on him— and it's not like Wrecker would be easily moved at this point anyway. 

Crosshair, resigned but thankful for the company, studied the tooka for a while longer. The knot in his chest loosened slightly at the reminder of the joyful and chaotic moments they've shared. Bright moments poking through the darkness like the stars studding the night sky. Instead of tucking the doll under his arm or clutching it to his chest, he stuffed it behind his head before settling back onto its familiar softness.

Crosshair folded his arms over his chest, closing his eyes and tuning in on the sounds of the insects chirping softly outside, the distant waves were harder to hear now that the tide had retreated, but still added to the calmness that now descended upon the island. Batcher grumbled in contentment, and soon Crosshair's breathing matched Wrecker's, lulling him into a more peaceful sleep than he'd had all week.

The next morning when Crosshair opened his eyes, the frightening things he may have dreamt about didn't follow him. They stayed where they belonged, far out of his periphery. The bright orange morning creeping over the horizon chased away some of the shadows from his mind. Not all of course, but, some. Wrecker and Batcher were still right beside him, both very real and sleeping soundly. He wiggled his toes experimentally. Pleased when the joints flexed on his command. He could move and get up if he wanted, but it was still far too early to rise and start the day. Instead, Crosshair did something he hasn't done in weeks- he went back to sleep.

Maybe he was still right, he thought as he drifted off again, Lula still tucked under his head. Maybe he didn't need this, but he had to admit, it helped.

Message from Santa: "Your OCs are so adorable!! I love the art style shown in your refs!

I decided to show Lula's wings underneath her cape because... uhm... I actually already drew the wings before you said which parts are transparent or not, and I didn't want to waste them lol! I actually decided to make this look like the gacha machines' figures... kinda... but made it my own style. I guess Luca's just making a holiday makeover for this circuit timer board thingy. Enjoy your children

Merry Christmas!!"

[archivistofnerddom]

I hope we get to see Wrecker’s reaction to Eva having Straw Lula in the finale.

He would have the happiest “YOU HAVE A LULA TOO!!!!!!” reaction. I just know it. And apologies to Hunter, Echo, and Omega, but Wrecker is going to adopt Eva on the spot. This adorable soft-spoken child just got herself the biggest and most boisterous sweetheart of a protective wrecking ball.

After all, who doesn’t want to see the Batch’s gentle giant be the best adopted dad to the sweetest little bean of the Force Sensitive Kids?

[rainba]

I thought of MORE (Yes, the 4th time I requested something)

What if a random woman/guy/person was flirting with Kairos or Luka and the reader just basically snatched your Kairos or Lukas arm and say something along the lines of, “Back off bitch! He’s mine!” And just drag them away back home. (Jealous much? 🙄)

Or the reader is an idol, popular streamer or basically a famous person/celebrity?

-🇰🇷 anon(Yes, again)

Hello again 🇰🇷 anon!!! :D Thank you for leaving another ask!! Sorry it took a while to respond to it!!

Luka would absolutely eat it up. Like… Oh? You actually felt jealous when someone else gave him attention? You just snatched his arm and announced that he belongs to you?

I’ll be honest. He’d be incredibly horny the second it happens.

☆ｏ(＞＜；)○

Your jealous reactions are delicious to him… He can’t get enough of it. When you drag him back home, he’ll immediately slam the door behind you both, then he’d fuck you senseless as a reward. ^^;;;;;;;

Lula wouldn’t even make it to the bed. He’ll just push you up against the wall and will have sex with you right there.

For the second part, if darling is an idol/celebrity of some sort, Luka would basically try to be your bodyguard, somehow.

He’ll apply and sneak his way into the position, getting close to you, then having you rely on him and acknowledge him in some way, shape, or form. (＃＞＜)

He’d also have some merchandise of you hidden in his bedroom– maybe some pictures of you framed around his house and at his work desk. 

If darling were to snatch Kairos' arms and say all of that, he would basically explode.

“Y-yeah! Back off…! I… I b-belong to them!”

Kairos would then proceed to tightly cling onto you. And he would also try to make out with you right there. ^^;;;;;;

Similar to Luka, he’d be painfully turned on, and he’d be wanting to fuck you the very second you get back home. ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

If darling is an idol/celebrity: Kairos is your number one fan!

He would own everything with your brand on it… The rarest of merchandise, dozens of posters, shirts, hoodies, etc.

How can he afford all of it…? He makes… Sacrifices. >_<;;;;;;;;

Kairos would be the type to go absolutely insane in an online forum if anyone talks bad about you, LOL. He’ll defend you until the day that he dies!! Your adorable little keyboard warrior Ღ

Kairos would also stalk you even more than usual. After all… He needs to make sure none of your other “fans” try anything. He has to protect you at all costs!

And, uh… He’d be extremely upset any time someone tries to call themselves your ‘number one fan’, because that title belongs to him, and nobody else.

[phantom-of-the-501st]

And we're back!

Initial thoughts on TBB S3 Eps 1-3

SPOILERS BELOW THE CUT

3x1 Confined

Final season premiere let's go!!!

Storms are never a good sign

There's creepy shit on Tantiss (crocodile thing from the trailer maybe?)

Although Hemlock counts as creepy enough

He's the creepiest thing on the whole planet 😬

Tbf there's a stunning view, it's just a shame about the prison window blocking it

CROSS IS BACK!!!

Omega blood sample? That's gotta come back later in the season!

Are these blood samples labelled? How tf does anyone know which is which??? That's just bad lab practice 🙄

Oh the weird machine knows. Nvm

"Replicate the genetic M count" and they want Omega's blood???

Nala Se is protecting Megs. Slenderbitch may actually be of some use

Force senstive Megs?

This feels like this is linking with the cloning plot in The Mandalorian

The animal welfare standards here are abysmal 😠

BATCHER?! Oh that's adorable 😍

And I thought Omegas's room was bad holy shit 😭

The grid across Cross' room is casting a crosshair on Omega's face. I love little details like that

21 tallies on wall = 21 rotations? That doesn't seem like very long

STRAW LULA?! 😭❤️

Why are there blood drips going into each sample? This seems like a contamination issue

At least 150 tallies now 😭

Subject will be terminated if they don't heal. Feels very much like the clones when they were on Kamino, which just shows how much the clones were treated like animals

"I belong here" *sobs*

Cross don't make me cry istg. I can't do this at 8am on a Wednesday 😭

Okay but the droid kind of had a point about Batcher struggling in the wild because of Omega domesticating her. One thing you learn about working in a zoo environment is that hand-reared animals have no idea how to behave like their wild counterparts and basically turn into little psychos (like you can't actually be in the same room as some of them levels of bad). That or they rely on people too much and have no idea how to fend for themselves. Either way, the droid wasn't entirely wrong

Hemlock is a bastard 😒

Omega's theme!!!

Season premiere and only two Batcher (neither of whom are Hunt or Wreck). Interesting!

1x2 Paths Unknown

Fucking Roland Durand?!

Did not expect that in episode 2 omg!

Hunter and Wrecker being mercenaries for the Durands?

Ah okay it seems to be a one off

THE GOGGLES IN THE SHIP! 😭😭😭😭

Hunt and Wreck be looking a bit scuffed

Echo and Rex mention!

They won't be available for 2 rotations? Well we're not seeing them this episode then...

Hunter's emotions are making him impulsive and that's not really a good thing

Wrecker is actually the one holding back, which is an interesting dynamic. Wrecker can see how bad Hunter is coping and is probably having to keep him in line as much as he can so that they don't lose another brother

CLONE CADETS! CLONE CADETS!

These ones actually have New Zealand accents as well

The slither vines were genetically made and got out of hand? This is what we mean by invasive species, people. Very much not good

Okay so we have one called Box and one called Stak

Are the cadets not affected by the chips? Do they only active in fully trained soldiers?

We need to get these kids to Echo and Rex

GONKY BACKPACK!!! 😆

Poor Gonky is stuck upside down.

These vines are making vocalisations somehow and it's confusing me. Plant voice boxes?

OKAY WTF ARE THOSE THINGS???

They look like weird green versions of the slogs from Abe's Oddysee

Why are you breaking into the Marauder???

You better not be stealing it. That's already happened and we can't do it again

Okay clone cadet 3 is Deke

Ayyyy rescue time!

Okay, I'll let them off for getting on the ship

Because we totally needed a swampy sarlacc thing rn 😭

PABU!!!

*Remembers invasion of Pabu in trailer* FUCK

1x3 Shadows of Tantiss

I'm going to throw hands if Echo isn't in this episode 😤

Ooh mystery clone(?) who everyone thinks is Tech!

Nala Se is helping again 👀

The special guest is probs Palpatine

Le Palps is back

Project Necromancer - bringing back the dead?

So is this to do with the cloning stuff or something to do with Tech?

Probs the cloning thing tbf

*Angry mouse droid squeaks*

FUCK YEAH CROSS!

Missed watching this guy fight

Cross and Omega team up let's go!!!

Cross doesn't question why Omega only mentioned Wrecker and Hunter. Has Omega told him about Tech or did he just not question why she only brought two up?

And in that case has she told him that Echo is with Rex?

I HAVE QUESTIONS!

Cross went for the stun not the kill. Very different from 2x3

Do you think Hemlock has a scar or does he just choose to shave a slit in his eyebrow? 🤨

Oh great a big green monkey cat. Just what we need!

"Of course he did". CROSSHAIR BEING SOFT ABOUT TECH HELP

Cross is missing shots because of his shaky hands :(

OMEGA M COUNT???

Oooooooh they're adding blood with midichlorians in to the samples to see if they would take. That explains the blood being added to the samples

Overall I love these episodes! It's nice going back and forth between Cross and Omega, and Hunter and Wrecker. We're going to get some interesting dynamics

This is a very sad day for Echo stans though. I feel like we're going to be suffering a lot this season 🥲

And here's the bingo card as of rn!

[ct9306]

“Hunter's Memories”

It's been months since Hunter and I welcomed our first child Tech, who we decided to name after his brother.

We're about to go to sleep. Hunter is with the baby. I watch him from the doorway with adoration. It's so sweet to see how he holds him in his arms and looks at him with so much love. I slowly approach him and say, you've been watching him for a while now. Let's go to sleep, Cyare. I still can't believe it. Well, believe it, Sergeant. This beautiful creature is your son (lays him down in the crib). He has all your beauty, Cyar'ika. Come on, he's just as handsome as his father, I say as I caress his face.

We're lying down. Hunter is on my chest as I run my fingers through his locks. I ask him curiously, "Hunter, do you remember anything from your childhood?" He sighs and says there are many good things that I remember from my fleeting childhood, I remember that all the clones on Kamino were under the supervision of a Jedi although her orders were only to evaluate us, she didn't treat us just like numbers, she always made us feel like what we were children, I remember that she told us stories that made our imagination fly in incredible places that only filled us with illusion so that when we grew up we could meet them, my favorite place comes to mind that corner under a large window in our room it always rained in Kamino and I liked to watch the rain fall from there and imagine what was happening beyond my eyes, General Shaak Ti that was her name she gave me a notebook, I had the tendency to paint on the walls of the place so in order not to do it anymore she gave it to me and well I always liked to draw what I imagined sitting under that window, she was always very kind and considerate with us, she was the one who gave the Lula doll to Wrecker the more we grew up the more fears and loneliness we felt, Wrecker created a bond with that doll that he felt. he clung to her that's why she's so special, every time we felt like this he would lend her to us, I was the oldest of the Four, well Omega really is the biggest of all, she wasn't genetically altered, then we grew up and they chose me as the leader of the group for maturing sooner, honey they were so needy of affection that it made them mature even though they were children, (I give him a kiss on the forehead), there really wasn't a childhood per se that's why we didn't let Omega have that life and well now with our son he's lucky love he won't lack you as his mother, Hunter with that compassionate and sweet father he will never lack protection and with his uncles who adore him, it took us all by surprise and yet there's nothing we won't do for him, (lifts his face and kisses me), I love you so much and I love you my beautiful moon, we hug each other as we fall asleep.

Little Cadet Hunter

MH 💋

[coralpaperthoughts]

Luka is obviously introduced earlier in this au than he is in canon, duhh otherwise this won't really work

but Adrien doesn't meet Luka (in civilian form) until later on during Captain Hardrock - yk, when Adrien trips over that keyboard and Lula helps him up while giving him heart eyes and Adrien blushes coz he just met his prince charming? (but let's say this episode happens earlier than it did in canon)

this is the moment that Luka and Adrien's friendship (and crushes) start to form and grow as civilians rather than just as superheroes

before this Adrien was absolutely smitten over the Ladybug Miraculous holder as he is normally (in canon): constantly flirting, very touchy, will follow Scarletbug to hell and back - he even still goes as far as sacrificing himself all the time knowing that Scarlet will bring him back

but now he's met Luka and, oh those blue ocean eyes are so so familiar but so fresh and new at the same time

he swoons, in the exact same way that Marinette swooned for Scarletbug (in strong muscular arms) and Luka falls for Adrien the exact same way that he fell for Marinette (holding the cutest little damsel in distress in his arms)

(also, side note, Adrien wasn't there to witness Scarletbug and Kitty Noire meeting, so he doesn't have the slightest idea abt the similarities and he can't correlate Scarletbug to Luka)

also Luka hears sm about Adrien from Juleka and Rose (coz yk I have to slip in Julerose) and he knows all about how sweet and innocent The Adrien Agreste really is, and he can't help falling in love with that cute impish smile

Adrien acts like a lost puppy. He follows Luka around all the time during hang outs or band practice (because ofc he joins the band and ofc Nathalie helps Adrien convince Gabriel to let him join officially so that I can actually get my Lukadrien crumbs, also the Liberty has just turned into the gang hang out spot outside of school for the whole friendship group because I say so but I digress)

Adrien is basically Luka's puppy at this point and he's not complaining, he loves how much Adrien adores him and he adores him back, and he loves teaching curious had-a-sheltered-life Adrien all he needs to know about anything he wants to know about and now I'm just gushing about Adrien with puppy dog eyes, u can tear this image from my cold, dead hands

anyways ! as I was saying,,, Luka and Adrien fall in love as civilians but because they have other crushes (Marinette and Scarletbug), neither of them act on this crush or even tell each other

Then they all have a eureka moment where everything falls into place and they all kiss and live happilyeveraftertogethertheend :)

What can I say, I adore Omega! I loved her outfit for Season 2! She deserves getting to curl up and take a nap with Lula and bringing home as many stray animals as she can!

My goodbyes to the members of Bad Batch

(I was inspired by someone else who also did this, but I can't find them. If anyone know who the op is, please tell me so I can credit them)

(Not spell checked, btw)

TECH

Tech -my beloved-.you have helped me gain confidence when it comes to my intelligence. Last year I was very insecure about my intelligence since I was the “advanced student”. Because of that title I was afraid to ask questions, afraid of not meeting that title. My self esteem relied on my grades and even though I would have an A I was disappointed it wasn't 100 percent. But because of you I learned that I don't have to prove myself to anyone and although I may struggle with it from time to time it's a lot better than last year. You also have been a big source of comfort for me. I would love to listen to you ramble endlessly. Your voice is a voice that I have learned to love and adore. In fact I cried when I realized I would hear your voice this season. I also see you as a person who would listen to me ramble and have a genuine conversation with. Something that I rarely have. You are a strong, intelligent, determined, and loving person. That is why you have a special place in my heart. Thank you Tech for all the things you have helped me with.

ECHO

I was pretty young when I watched The Clone wars. At that time I wasn't invested with starwars the way I am now. So I never really paid attention to what I was watching. I remember part of it like watching the attack on Kamino. In all honesty I don't remember watching you at all. But subconsciously I may remember since you are one of my favorite clones. Heck even characters. I really like how competent and funny you. To me it shows that even after all that you have been through you can still be an amazing person. I think that's an important message to send. I also like how you want to keep fighting for your brothers. It shows how much you care for them, even the ones you haven't met. I love how you are willing to take dangerous risks for people to love. It shows so much about you. And finally I love how you were able to find healthy coping mechanisms and make the most of your situation. You aren't the same person as before the trauma but you aren't left worse off. Echo you are the perfect example of “you aren't what happens to you it's what you do with what happens' ' and I want to be like you.

WRECKER

Wrecker, you and I are a lot alike. We are both affectionate, loud when we're excited, and caring. I adore how you openly show Lula! You aren't ashamed of her and I think that's incredible. To be proud of who you are and being able to feel unashamed by others trying to put you down is an amazing life skill to have. I think it is amazing how you were always willing to take Crosshair back. I can tell how much you love him. It broke my heart to hear you scream after Tech as he fell. You love all of your brothers and to see one of them die and being unable to help them is something I never want to face. But you are somehow able to still keep your positivity. You seem like the person your brothers go to for reassurance due to your loving and affectionate nature. I hope that whatever happens tomorrow in the finale won't take that away from you.

HUNTER

You are an amazing father/brother to Omega and your brothers. You want what is best for them and try to help them. You are a caring person. It is just how you are. This allows you to empathize with people more easily. It is also your caring nature that drew me to you. You are how I joined Fandom in the first place, and because of that, I made friends with people who want to have a genuine conversation with me(@techwrecker @thefrogdalorian )

You've also allowed me to find people who share my interests. For that I thank you. I admire your determination. You know what you want and no one is going to stop you from getting it. I understand how pressuring it can be when people look up to you and seek you for advice but you manage to pull it off and that is why you are the leader of the batch.

CROSSHAIR

Your journey has been a hard one. You had to see your brothers leave you multiple times. You had to watch Mayday, a reg who you quickly grew to care for and love, die because of the ignorance of the Empire. The same Empire you sacrificed your whole life for. You gave up your relationship with your family, your happiness and individuality. All for the Empire to take 2 of your brothers, and take away what made you different , acceptable to take away the reason you were born and to replace it with trauma.

What you had to live through was cruel and all I can do is hope that you'll be alive to make the pain worth it.

But just because you went through all of this doesn't mean you don't have amazing qualities that I love and admire. Like me you value loyalty. It is why you left the Empire and why you are trying to recuse Omega. You are also very protective of what you care about and it is easy to see how much you care for your brothers and for Omega. I think I like you as much as I do because you remind me of my best friend. She is as stubborn,and snarky, as you but she is also as caring, loyal, thoughtful, and strong as you. It is clear for me to see why Omega never gave up on you. And I want you to know that you deserve the galaxy.

OMEGA

I have loved watching you learn and grow through all of these years. You've grown so far from the girl who didn't know what dirt was. You have faced challenges that would change many people. And in all honesty you have changed; you've changed for the better. You are still the loyal,caring and empathetic person you were before. You are a bit of everyone in the batch

You're as loyal as Crosshair, as caring as Hunter, as strong as Echo, as positive as Wrecker, and as strategic as Tech. You have so much potential in this galaxy, and I just know wherever the force guides you, you'll never lose your spark.

(I will post my final goodbye to the series tomorrow)

Hello! If your asks are open, I have a prompt: How do the batchers react to their brothers dating someone? Sometimes it's awkward to imagine your sibling kissing someone, or maybe you have a sense of relief ("finally, someone who really understands them!")?

Are the others shocked when Crosshair gets caught kissing his girl? Happy that Wrecker has someone to laugh with? Annoyed that Tech's significant other is just as chatty?!

I apologize if you've already answered something like this! I absolutely adore your writing btw! ❤️

Aloha! Interesting Question!

Let me think about this for a moment....

The Bad Batch (x Fem!Reader) HCs - The Girlfriend (Brotherly Love And Bickering)

Crosshair

Even if it takes him a while to come out with it or become noticeable, surprisingly, Crosshair tends to daydream a lot and be absent-minded. Of course, this is noticeable. Most people leave him alone, don't really tease him. But Wrecker has other ideas.

Whenever Crosshair's mind obviously drifts to you, Wrecker is there to annoy him. He throws Lula in his face and yells, "Surprise attack!"

Crosshair glares at Wrecker like he wants to barbecue him alive with his stare, but Wrecker isn't impressed. Wrecker regularly teases his brother affectionately, and is fascinated by how touchy Crosshair is when it comes to you.

But like the rest, Wrecker naturally doesn't begrudge him being with you, he is happy for Crosshair, having a beloved, trusted person by his side.

Hunter

Is also a daydreamer and very secretive. The others notice that something is different, but not really immediately what is going on. Sooner or later, Hunter tells his brothers as matter-of-factly as possible and introduces you.

Wrecker enjoys the fact that you also understand fun and join in his jokes, and Hunter is much too patient to be annoyed by little pranks and teasing comments. He is happy and comfortable enough in his relationship with you that nothing can upset him anytime soon.

His brothers are happy for him, only Crosshair is critical of the relationship between you and accuses Hunter of letting you distract him from more important things. A certain jealousy may well play a role in this.

Wrecker

He makes no secret of it, there is nothing to be caught. As soon as he falls in love, even before you are a couple, he talks about you all the time and gets on everyone's nerves. The guys are as lenient as possible, only Crosshair unabashedly leaves the room as soon as Wrecker starts talking about you. And Echo asks him to keep his mouth shut in a friendly but firm manner occasionally.

The Sniper doesn't begrudge his brother this happiness he feels, but he is so at odds with himself and unsettled that he is uncomfortable with Wrecker and your togetherness. It takes a long time, but that eventually settles, at the latest when he himself has found his better half.

Tech

He talks about you constantly from the moment he fell in love with you until you are a couple and beyond. He talks about you as if you were an absolute phenomenon that no one should be denied of knowing about, and often at inopportune moments. Tech is so engrossed in his thoughts of you that he can't read the room sometimes.

"Ask her out on a date! Please! So you can stop nagging us about it," Echo blurts out at one point.

Tech says downright indignantly, "Impossible! What if she says no?"

Crosshair growls, "Then you cry for a couple of nights, and hopefully you'll be a little quieter."

Tech looks at him, almost pouting.

"Rude," he says simply, looking at Hunter for help.

Hunter says, "Echo is right, if you don't ask her, it will always be dreams, and you'll never find out if she likes you too."

Of course you like him! And much to Crosshair's chagrin, Tech is even more talkative now, happily elated like a young cadet.

Echo

Is very introverted and keeps a low profile. He neither peddles his feelings to his brothers, nor does he introduce you too early. Echo wants to have you for himself first and above all his peace.

Of course, the others will inevitably find out sooner or later. But no matter how incredibly in love Echo is with you, the way he handles it is very unobtrusive and doesn't bother anyone, not even the 'grump-master' Crosshair himself.

In fact, the guys are a bit surprised when they unexpectedly meet you.

"Echo has a girlfriend?"

"Don't act so surprised," he says with a roll of his eyes, and retreats with you.
