Crosshair being a big brother
Going to be a dick in this post but myself and a lot of writers have had enough.
So, I am going to go ahead delete a load of requests people have sent in because since I’ve done some requests, 90% of yous (who have sent me in a request) have actually never interacted with my work so why should I write something for you? Must have mug written on my blog.
Obviously I won’t delete anonymous ones because who knows but hang your heads if you’ve requested something from me and not once in the last two-three months reblogged any of my work.
“I love all your work” Okay, then reblog.
“Your writings so good” Okay, then reblog.
“Please can you write this, I love your fics” Okay, then REBLOG.
“I can’t believe you do this for free” REBLOG REBLOG
Am I being petty? Um, yes. Do I care? Nope.
I know I should write for enjoyment but I write because I like seeing people enjoying my work. Also, it’s brilliant motivation. To see my 8k Crosshair fic flop after people asked it to be done in one big part is sooooo boring and annoying to see. It’s a waste of energy that I sadly do not have anymore.
I love the fandom but a lot of you make it hard to enjoy when you do not support those who are trying to keep it alive.
concept: fives and echo decide to pull a prank on Rex not too long after they become 501st. They decide to go for the obvious: pink hair dye in his shampoo.
Everything works out the way they want, they get the dye in undetected, Rex uses it without realising and ends up with a bubblegum pink buzz cut.
So he comes out of the shower and Fives and Echo are giggling and pointing, except none of the other brothers around are even batting an eye and that includes Rex, who’s now standing in front of the mirror shaving.
The twins look around all confused as their Captain puts on his armour and gets ready as though it’s just another Tuesday.
When he walks out Fives whispers “What the fuck?” and finally one of the older troopers decides to explain:
“Pretty much every rookie we’ve ever gotten has pulled the hair dye prank on Rex. Personally, I went with green. He doesn’t really care because he shaves it once a week anyway. Also, pink isn’t the most original choice.”
Meanwhile at the mess, Rex is sitting down for breakfast and reports with Cody.
“Tano again?”
“No, the shinies from last week.”
“Hm. And they went with pink?”
“Yeah, I thought they were more creative than that. You still want ‘em?”
Hera: Kanan, my friend is coming over.
Kanan: That’s great. Who?
Hera: She’s part of the rebellion. She’s a clone named Omega. When I was younger, she and her brothers rescued me. They were called the bad batch

The Bad Batch finale missing scene
Yeah I needed that…
May the 4th be with you!🙌
It took me a while to realize what Hunter meant when he said this to Echo. I was rewatching Clone Wars season 7 and I gasped--
Hunter basically said that Echo's welcome to come back to them. That he has a place in their squad, their family, even if he has a different path 😭😭😭
The more that I think about the early episodes of TBB S3, the funnier they get to me. Like
First we have Crosshair, who is really getting to know Omega for the first time. His only real interactions with her in the past have involved his brothers being EXTRA protective of her, so in his head Omega is probably just this poor, scared, naive little kid. And then one day she just pulls up to his prison cell and is like “what’s up, loser, we’re getting out of here” and then proceeds to sneak him out of a high security government lab under the nose of the emperor himself (she knows our battle plans?? Of course she knows all of our battle plans, that’s a normal thing to teach a 12 year old…) Not to mention the fact that Omega gambled in a bar and won more credits than either of them had probably ever seen in their lives, so that they could bribe the space TSA into getting them off world (WHY does the kid know how to gamble). Not that Crosshair is in any position to judge someone’s parenting, but he has QUESTIONS.
Omega, meanwhile, is for the first time getting the full Crosshair Experience, complete with every bit of sarcasm, snark, and sass that the man has been bottling up on Tantiss, and she is not having it. No, Crosshair, I don’t really know how to fly this shuttle, why don’t you quit your backseat flying and get your butt up here and do this yourself? No, Crosshair, we cannot open fire on civilians in an airport, I thought that was just an inhibitor chip thing for you. No, Crosshair, we are NOT LEAVING OUR MAN-EATING HOUND ALONE AND UNSUPERVISED ON A RESIDENTIAL PLANET.
And then you have Hunter, who hasn’t been thinking clearly for five months and who probably is living off a diet of spiked lemonade and sour patch kids (to match the bitterness inside him), who went from thinking “oh yeah we’re gonna settle down on Space Greece” to “Wrecker, that one crime syndicate called us back, if we murder this one guy for them then they MIGHT give us some info on Omega, wheels up in 10”
And poor Wrecker finds himself as The Responsible Adult for the first time in his life, which is incredibly confusing and a little bit scary and Hunter, you are TOO CLOSE to the edge of that cliff!! He’s never really believed in vegetables before but Echo says they’re good for you so he spends every moment that he’s not trying to keep Hunter from starting a second interplanetary war over the disappearance of his kid attempting to convince Hunter to try an apple or something.
And then it all culminates in this very tense, dramatic moment where they’re all staring at each other and Omega is like “yay now we can all get therapy!” and Wrecker is like “Echo come back I can’t do this on my own anymore” and Hunter is like “you can’t commit fratricide in front of the kid, you can’t commit fratricide in front of the kid” and Crosshair is like “TAKE YOUR SCARY CHILD BACK” and if that’s not peak Bad Batch then I don’t know what is
