“I’d Say He’s More Bark Than Bite, But He Shoots Things For A Living. So.”

How many of Crosshair’s instructors do you think he shot. Like, not accidentally

It’s canon that Hunter and Crosshair fought each other all the time (literally), but you know who else probably argued a ton? Tech and Hunter. Not necessarily because their personalities clashed or because they liked to pick fights with each other, but because Hunter’s primary instinct is Protect and Defend At All Costs and Tech’s primary instinct is “if I jump off this narrow walkway between buildings at exactly the right angle onto the back of a predatory winged creature whose distress calls I recorded on a whim when it tried to eat my Jedi general, my chances of survival increase from 12% to 16%” and I really just think that would be a source of occasional conflict

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 😭😭

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

“And in the night

You hear me calling

You hear me calling

And in your dreams

You see me falling, falling…”

“Oblivion” by M83 making me think of Tech in all the saddest ways

This is kinda dumb lol because I literally know that these men are all just copy paste, but sometimes I see GIFs of members of TBB and am just struck by how similar they look to each other.

Like, since they all look unique because of their enhancements and hair and style, I don’t necessarily look right at them and see them as identical like with the other clones. But sometimes Hunter will smirk and he just looks so much like Crosshair, or Tech’s eyes will widen and he looks just like Wrecker, or Wrecker will glare and he looks just like Hunter…it’s just like, fantastic. These animators could solve world peace

Hunter before Omega: alright lads, the odds are -10% that any of us survive this, which means we are in it for a GOOD TIME, in fact, just for kicks, I say we go in with no armor and no guns and just STAB our way through the droid army. If you get shot, don’t forget to take a selfie for the Battle Wound Wall of Fame *does a shot*

Hunter after Omega: okay, so I know we planned to go to on our family picnic today, but I checked the weather and it MIGHT rain later, so I say we avoid the risk altogether and postpone for another day just to be on the safe side. How is everyone doing? Do we have snacks?? Are we warm enough?? Does anybody need a bandaid??? Omega come here, you look like you need a hug—

Wrecker: We should send Echo. Everyone likes Echo.

Hunter: Not everyone.

Crosshair, loading his rifle: Who doesn’t like Echo? I want names and locations.

As promised, the Bad Batch!

I’m kind of obsessed with the idea of clones taking holos after missions they’re particularly proud of. Also, I love the Dad Batch as much as the next, but I ADORE their Frat Bro days!

(One day I’ll stop drawing clones in T-shirts and put them in proper gear, but today is not that day.)

“No matter how badly led, ridiculously under equipped, under appreciated, no matter how doomed their mission, they take a bizarre and quite beautiful pride in at least being screwed more than everybody else and doing it with style. They seem to do what they do for themselves. It’s not a job. It’s a calling.” —Anthony Bourdain

This quote just reminds me of the bad batch 💛
