No literally that conversation would have been pure gold. Wrecker is completely exaggerating the romance, Omega is all giggly, Hunter is trying to be mature and keep things under control, and Crosshair is just floored
we were absolutely robbed of this followup moment:
Phee: Any friend of Brown Eyes [Tech] is a friend of mine.
Phee: [turns around and starts heading for her ship]
Crosshair: [turns his head to Hunter with the most confused look ever on his face]
Crosshair: [mouthing silently to Hunter] "Brown Eyes" ???
So like what’s gonna happen when Omega comes back from the rebellion with a boyfriend?? My guess is that Crosshair takes up sniping again
I’m dead over the fact that nobody tried to redeem Cid in TBB S3. In fact, if anything, our opinion of her drops even further, because she helps CX-2 find Phee, which helps him find Pabu. Like, Crosshair had one of the most gorgeous redemption arcs in Star Wars. They even teased that Rampart, who bombed Kamino and wiped out an entire race and decades’ worth of scientific achievement, might redeem himself. But Cid? Who sold our little CF99 family to the empire after they fled to her for refuge in the wake of the sacrifice of one of their own? Who got our little Omega imprisoned for five months in an imperial experimental facility? The writers knew that if Cid was on fire and we were holding a bucket of water, we wouldn’t even DRINK the water, we would make her watch while we pour it into the dirt, and they were NOT gonna mess with that
Hi friends, could I have some TBB fanfic recs???
I love cute little domestic ones, and stories about the shenanigans they got up to during their down time. Also, missions from before Kaller happened (before or after Echo, either is fantastic)
I’m going on a long trip and I need stories to hold me over XD
“If you haven’t shot each other at least once, are you even brothers??” —Crosshair, to Wrecker, at some point probably
Does anybody else badly want a TBB novelization or is it just me
So... It's pretty much unspoken fact that Tech and Hunter came up with basically ALL the team plans, right?
Like, Tech came up with at least 70% of them, Hunter came up with 25%, Crosshair (and, to a lesser extent, Wrecker) had a few unique ideas but mostly provided input/suggestions to improve the others.
Wrecker gets full credit for the one plan that simply calls for "blow it all up." His brothers made it an official numbered plan just to appease him but actually did use that plan on 4 separate occasions.
Omega: You’re offered 50,000 credits but if you accept it, the person you hate most in the entire galaxy gets 100,000 credits. Are you taking it?
Crosshair: Yes. Why wouldn’t I want 150,000 credits?
Not me begging all my friends and family to watch The Bad Batch, acting like that show isn’t the reason I cry myself to sleep every night
For real though, it’s so on brand that the first thing Crosshair does when he meets Tech’s girlfriend is almost fight her
My favorite part of this episode was Phee meeting Crosshair and immediately giving him shit
Well NOW I DO
Do you think Hunter, Wrecker, Echo and Crosshair ever think about how the first mission given to the them by the empire was to kill Saw and they didn't because they knew it was wrong and valued human life, only for Saw to not see their lives the same and be fine with Tech being his collateral damage?
