Imagine The Bad Batch In A Miss Congeniality Type Situation

Hunter chatting up Crosshair during a break, one of his dumb jokes even gets the man to smile for a second

Dave Filoni and Jennifer Corbett can have all my money, and all I want is a scene where Hunter and Wrecker are teasing Tech about Phee:

Wrecker: Phee and Tech are sitting in a tree, c-i-s-s-s-i-n-g…

Tech: that is NOT how you spell “kissing,” Wrecker

Hunter: he can’t spell it, but at least I bet he can do it better than you can

Wrecker: yeah!! You been practicing on your pillow, Tech?

Tech: absolutely not!

Hunter: then how are you gonna get any good at it?

Tech: *adjusts goggles* with the proper amount of research, I’m sure I would be GREAT at it

Phee: *walks in* great at what???

Tech: *chokes*

Hunter: hey Phee, you wanna do some RESEARCH with Tech??

It would be unfair not to reblog this

This thought came to me at work today, but what if at one point the Marauder kept having issues with its navigation system or something?? And Hunter kept filing reports for it, but since he’s kinda lazy when it comes to reporting he just writes “tech issues” and hits submit

And then one day he gets a call from Cody, and Cody is like, “hey, uh…is Tech okay??” And Hunter’s like, what do you mean. And then Cody produces three months’ worth of reports that say “tech issues” and goes, “Well, apparently, he’s having problems…”

Crosshair never lets him live it down

I wanna know how Hunter became the leader of the Bad Batch. Like, not saying any of the others would have been better, I just mean, there were only four options: a sassy little iPad kid, a trigger-happy man bear, the problematic guy with the toothpicks, and Space Rambo. We can’t assume it was because he was the least chaotic, because nothing could be farther from the truth. In TCW season 7, Anakin asks him who they report to and he’s just like “idk man, if I knew how to fill out a report maybe I’d try and find out” and when Anakin gets snatched up by that lizard dragon thingy, the first thing his brothers do is get set up so that Hunter can windsurf behind it like a maniac because apparently that’s something he tends to do. In TBB S1 when Omega starts that food fight, Hunter tries to de-escalate the situation for approximately 3 seconds before throwing hands. All of his interactions with any sort of leadership involve a minimum of 70% sarcasm. The man has a blaster to shoot droids and chooses to stab them with a knife instead. He left cadet training and the first thing he did was get a massive face tattoo of a skull.

Like, I’m trying to imagine how that conversation went and all I can think of is, “Sir, it’s time to promote one of the members of Clone Force 99 to sergeant.” “…*long sigh*”

Omega growing out of her “sweet happy-go-lucky child” phase and into her “moody emotional teenager” phase would be quite the upheaval in the Bad Batch household, because Hunter is probably devastated and emotional and a little scared about it all because that’s his little girl, but Crosshair just smirks and buys a pack of extra crunchy toothpicks because his time has come.

I just watched the very first episode of the Mandalorian for the first time in like YEARS and I NEVER noticed that in that iconic last scene where it pans out on Din standing over Grogu’s little floating bassinet, holding out his finger,

he wiggles his finger 😭 he does a little finger wiggle 😭😭

People who can write, I definitely want a fic of the entire batch having it out in the training room hahaaaa

I totally agree with everything, if I’m allowed to add:

The first time Echo witnesses their “conflict resolution,” he’s shocked and def pulls the older brother card to get them to chill out

However, it takes approximately two days for Echo and Tech to have a sass off that rivals those of Tech and Crosshair (Crosshair enjoys it wayyyy too much)

Hunter knows that pulling rank is a sure fire way to shut down any argument with Echo, but Echo is so obedient about it that it makes him feel bad, so he doesn’t.

Wrecker is scared to argue with Echo. Crosshair is too, but he won’t admit it. That makes their arguments extra salty

Thinking about Hunter and Crosshair resorting to throwing hands and Tech and Wrecker bickering has me cooking up some headcanons about their methods of… ✨conflict resolution✨

Tech and Crosshair have a sass off/roast fest (Hunter has to intervene like 90% of the time, Wrecker pulls out the popcorn)

Hunter and Wrecker have staring contests to rival that of Jedi padawans trying to mind trick each other

Wrecker and Crosshair throw things at each other while having a shouting match

Hunter and Tech actually have logical arguments like sane human beings, but with a whole lot of gnashing of teeth because most of the time they both have really good points and they’re stubborn af (strategist vs genius, you know?) (every once in a great while Hunter gets frustrated enough to pull rank lol)

If three of them have issues, no. 4 tells them to either stop being morons or take it to the training room

If all four of them have a problem, well… that’s what the aforementioned training room is for lol

DYING pleeeeease 😂😂

How Phee (should have) seduced Tech:

As the sun sets on the Pabu sea, the lights of the village come on from the shore up the hill.

Phee: Pretty spectacular, right?

Tech: I suppose...that is one way to quantify it.

Phee (leans in, softly): Technically, that was a qualification.😏

Tech: (the goggle fidgeting intensifies)😳

Hunter wasn’t jealous watching Omega chew on a toothpick just like Crosshair. He just knew her sarcastic potential and was terrified that Crosshair would turn her into his evil, sassy prodigy, and he only has the mental capacity to deal with one of those in his squad

Echo’s First Moments with TBB, Part 3

Echo: *banging on bathroom door* Hunterrrr, hurry up!! You’ve been in there 30 mins already!!

Hunter: *opens door, comes out of bathroom* sorryyyyy, you know, more hair, takes longer…

Crosshair: *pushes past them both into the bathroom, slams the door shut*

Echo: wha—HEY!! Crosshair, it’s my turn, I’ve been waiting!!

*shower starts running*

Echo: CROSSHAIR!!!

*Summertime Sadness starts blasting from inside*
