Seriously, just seeing you so hyped and happy about the bad batch makes me feel all warm inside everytime idk i feel like i have to say this. I see you get excited on here and it gives me a serotonin boost! Tell me about your favourite characters, your comfort relationship, favourite scenes! Anything to make you feel comfort and joy 🌈

oh gosh, love..... this is so sweet. i love you so much 🥺💕😭

this show seriously gives me so much joy, even though it has Lots of flaws. still, the highlight of my week is probably the new episode each friday. ✨escapism✨ for the win

and well, you already know my favourite character, echo. i told you a lot about him and aaaaaahhhh he's so good and he's endured so much and yet he's idealistic and gentle and kind - even if he mostly hides that under his grumpy exterior - but he's also conflicted and omg his strong morality will definitely cause some big conflict with the rest of the bad batch and i'm so not ready for it

i also love tech!! i didn't like him in the beginning tbh. he was like, yk the asshole genius character trope? yeah that. he still hasn't got as much development as i'd like but there's definitely potential and unfortunately, he's grown on me agshdjsjhdksk. he's trying his best 🥺 i think he's not used to not knowing all the answers and he works extra hard because he thinks his brothers won't need him if he can't be... useful. oh god someone give him a hug

echo and tech's dynamic is also so good!! they argue all the time, but like they obviously are close and spend a lot of time together... echo also used to be such a nerd, before the citadel, but i think he relates to tech this way. also they are co-pilots and the ones constantly fixing the ship lol. tech helps echo with his prostethics, and like, in a very practical way. like i think tech doesn't see echo as different. i also like to think echo listens to tech rambling, because he also knows how much it hurts to be told to shut up

and while we're at excellent character dynamics, little omega's dynamic with every one of her big brothers is precious!!! like it's most obvious with hunter, who's just trying his best, learning to care for a child and it's a wonderful development and it's so clear how much they love each other and i just *clutches chest* love them. then with wrecker she's also very close and together they are the cutest! chaotic siblings!! i love that because wrecker is a big child at heart and with omega, he actually gets to have so much fun! but he's also very protective of her and it's adorable. she has less scenes with tech but they are so cute because tech teaches omega stuff and she keeps handing him the tools he needs, just being his little helper. and also there's a soft little smile she has that's specifically for tech and every time we see it in an episode, the fandom collectively starts crying from the adorableness. she has even less scenes with echo but *sobbing* that one scene with the trooper doll. god he's so soft and gentle and i'm gonna cry if i think about it too much

also also side characters!! you know hera from rebels? she's here as a teen and she's omega's new best friend and they helped saved her family and omega encouraged her and tech taught her about ships and oh god it was such a good episode i can't

another side character we're all crazy for is a new clone who was introduced two weeks ago and he's just....... so good?? his name is howzer and he stood up against the empire? and saved hera's family?? and he's so much like rex???? the point is, everyone loves captain howzer ❤️

okay this is getting long but it was nice to talk about these characters. god i love them so much 😭😭😭😭😭

thank you love!!
