#living in delulu is not that bad

*thinks about it for a second*

That's the first time I'm happy that the author did NOT make content with my favourite side character.

Imagine the damage Noda could do by posting a sketch of a shirtless Vasily and he was just scrawny and hairless

Happy(?) Bad Batch Wednesday!

Have a silly little drawing to make your day better before it gets so much worse!

I’m going to prepare my clown self for if CX2 isn’t Tech because I’ll feel a right fool.

Reasons Clone X is Tech:

-his accent is different from the rest-they are trying to conceal it by layering it with a regular clone voice and the helmet modulation but it's there

-he does a "Tech turn" when he lands his ship

-Cross' attempt to look back at one of the Clone X guys in episode 3 and his mournful look down after he says they come out of reconditioning "different." How would he know this unless he knew one of the clones getting reconditioned and watching them get their personality wiped away? How many clones does Cross know personally to notice such a change?

-while he's strangling Cross, Cross taps his shoulder like you would when you were sparring and want to "tap out." This is a similar gesture that Hunter did when Wrecker's chip activated in Season 1 and he was also being strangled. You would think he would hit him or fight harder instead of "tapping out" if he was fighting for his life. Makes you wonder if he doesn't want to hurt the other person...

-why would they go to such lengths to show us scenes we have seen Tech endure before? Such as getting his leg crushed and limping around through the pain, grunting after moving big rocks around, falling over a waterfall and listening to his little gasps/coughs for air...this would have to be some kind of elaborate misdirect if we weren't supposed to think it was Tech.

-there were definitely strains of the Plan 99 theme as Cross and Clone X went over the falls

-lots of other little things like his leg pouches, the definition of his (very shapely) calves, his helmet being a little different and looking a little "friendlier" around the eyes, his inability to follow orders, the way he can anticipate the Batch's moves

I think Cross acts sketchy about these Clone X types because he knows it's Tech and thinks it's permanent/unfixable so he doesn't want his brothers to be hurt over it. I trust him and his redemption arc, he has proven he has changed and is sorry for his previous choices. I could see how him keeping this from the Batch could cause friction between them down the road and I bet the writers would love to mine the angst from this situation.

It is also possible but less likely that he knows it's Tech and Tech is just in deep cover so he doesn't want to blow it? This theory might just be me hoping Tech is ok.

I have never been more convinced this Clone X is Tech. How much is left of him...not sure.

Ok so I get it tech didn’t come back

But

CONSIDER

We go to Lothol, we open the door to the world between worlds, and we go get our man ourselves?

sometimes i visit the anti-azris tag just to get some perspective but usually it's just someone being confused that azris exists which is fair but have you considered-

whenever i see people defend having ai in everything because they believe we are on the cusp of the great singularity blah blah sci-fi magic future that does not (& most likely will not ever) exist:

I live in delulu world, so even if the CX-2 clone isn't Tech, it doesn't mean that Tech is not alive. Maybe he is out there with amnesia, maybe living his best life as a pod racer or like a pirate, or maybe Saw Gerrera found him and never told him about his past, and Tech is working with him and the Partisans. He even might have met Jyn Erso when she was a kid, and maybe he has a few memories of Omega that he sees through Jyn.

I'm very emotional about the finale so let's talk abt the clones real quick ehem

One thing watching the bad batch has shown me is the selfless love the clones had. It's literally painted all over the whole show but i wanna highlight a few things in the finale:

The clones in Tantiss decided to stay and help Omega and Echo without a second of a doubt, even though freedom is right there- they could run for their lives but they didn't. Bro, these clones had gone through hell and back, but the second one of their brothers needs them, they didn't give a crap about that or the risk.

When Crosshair offered to break into Tantiss alone, Wrecker and Hunter could have accepted that and waited but no. If they were gonna survive together, then they were gonna survive together. If they were gonna die together, they were gonna die together.

In all the ways i wish tech was alive, his sacrifice meant that much more with him being actually dead. Yeah, we didn't get that reunion (sobs), that satisfaction of having the batch back together, but we did get the fruit of Tech's love for his brothers and sister. He literally died for them.

The clones' love for each other was selfless. If they could give a chance for one of them to survive then they would give it - no matter the cost. I admire that.

Don't mind me, just thinking about the time I accidentally nudged his arm in class, panicked and said sorry and he said "It's okay".

You know I'm too deep in the hyperfixation when I have tears in my eyes just by seeing Satosugu fanarts -yes even the cute and wholesome ones.
