I have frequently come across the complaint that the writers largely forgot about Hunter's enhanced skills, so during my latest rewatch, I kept loose track of any indications that Hunter might actually be using them.

In summary: he uses them A LOT.

The only episodes Hunter features prominently in where I didn't pick up on any indication that Hunter specifically used his enhanced senses were "Common Ground," "Return to Kamino/Kamino Lost," "Truth and Consequences," and "Retrieval"... And I'm sure if I rewatched those episodes more closely I'd find hints of Hunter using his enhanced skills. 

Just a few examples:

OBVIOUS: tracking Gregor's whereabouts and then sensing the hidden military installation on Daro

KINDA OBVIOUS: immediately knows which direction Omega has gone when she wanders off on Pantora; figuring out what happened to the village on Kashyyyk; sensing the Marauder being stolen on Ipsidon

LESS OBVIOUS: while Tech uses his datapad etc to keep track of his team's position on Serreno, Hunter effortlessly leads Wrecker through the city ruins, without the benefit of a map, to take a different route back around to the Marauder. 

Personally, I rather like that Hunter's skills aren't frequently given specific emphasis or a distinct cue, that his use of them is more subtle - it just makes sense that his skills are an innate part of him. Since they aren't exactly flashy skills like Wrecker's strength or Crosshair's sniping, sometimes we might overlook them, but they are still being used.

The clones in Star Wars absolutely astound me, especially in the clone wars like,

501st: Our general is a war criminal maniac with a teenager at his heel learning to do the same things by example. And we love them.

212th: Our general is in love with a Duchess and we’re actively in feud with a four armed lightsaber wielding cyborg with lung cancer. One time we fucking punched him and lived.

104th: I would give my entire right arm to see the General Plo never comes to harm or anything ever happens to him. Wolffe: I gave my eye but still, same sentiment.

327th: Our commander and general are fucking. Like. Legitimately. Bly: Yeah dude. Ayala Secura: Yeah dude.

The Bad Batch: This hologram thing keeps telling us that we should stop right now and follow protocol instead of commuting more war crimes. If anyone but Tech knows what war crimes are they simply do not care enough to stop.

Long live the fucking republic man. How the hell they won battles is a mystery.

POV ur Commandant Sobeck watching the citadel's camera feed

Modern Crosshair would be a Chappell Roan bisexual. Not enough people are talking about this.

Tech: did you allow our eleven-year-old sister to listen to a song about becoming a stripper at a queer nightclub?

Crosshair: …you’re being homophobic.

Tech: …

Crosshair: just be grateful I didn’t let her listen to the one about getting eaten out in the front seat of someone’s car

Nothing to see here, just some Pilot Hunter with his scrunchy determined face

Bonus:

^This one is literally me and my sister on a late night maccas run lol

A Series of TBB Memes

Along with @magicandmundane, we're creating a series where we take meme templates from the internet and TBB-ifying them, as these memes all include TBB characters. Series will be updated as more come along! Feel free to share/reblog!

Yeah, I....

Could? Would I? I can't...

Who Says It?

LORDDD

This is a great idea

When I’m mean to myself I imagine Tech’s voice in my head disagreeing with everything I say about myself.

Me: “I’m not good at anything I’m the worst everyone hates me.”

Tech, in my head: “That is factually inaccurate. Plenty of people love you and you have many skills and talents that you, frankly, under value. We do this every few weeks and my answer is always the same which is: you are wrong. Try again.”

I recommend it. Tech is hard to argue with.
