#hardcase one more god damn time Rex is gonna loose men

AU where Crosshair isnt just the youngest batcher

Noooo hes the youngest clone to ever grace the field period. Like the Kaminoans thought they needed just three experimental clones but later discover they need a fourth and so Crosshair is very quickly, very unsafely, made and aged up so by the time he's in the field man's is like 6 months or smth ridiculous

Hee makes one comment, one "how's it feel to be arguing with a baby" comment while arguing with regs and thats it for him. The GAR goes wild, the buir gene is raging, Crosshair goes from dodging fists to dodging adoptions. His brothers are also dragged into it cause they're also insanely young.

And that is how the GAR ends up knowing of and liking the Bad Batch, they stop thinking of them as assholes and just go "traumatised babiesss"

#just really want to see crosshair get force adopted#every week is a new battalion kidnapping him#his favourite so far is Pond's or Cody's battalion cause they're chill and mostly let him vibes on his own#his least yet most entertaining is the 501st cause while they're chaotic like the batch if he has to put up with fives echo jesse and#hardcase one more god damn time Rex is gonna loose men

Makes me wonder, in a version of this where they still have to rescue Echo from the Techno Union, would Echo be like "my kids now STOP TRYING TO STEAL THEM!" or "my kids but the kidnappings are entertaining" (it's nice to have non-lethal chaos) or would the GAR be like "the babies have a grouchy older brother now, he must be adopted too!" while Echo's like "I'm an adult???"
