Omega - Blog Posts
This hurts more than it should because he wasn’t my favorite character in TCW for some reason but in TBB I felt more of a connection to him! I think it has a lot to do with Omega, their connection even if it’s not blatantly obvious to most, and how she NEVER gives up on Crosshair and seems to be the only one to sense his suffering. (More reasons but I’m sure no one wants to read a long post from me lol)
Not saying the other batchers aren’t suffering but Cross literally thinks he was replaced by his brothers by their little sister who they didn’t even know existed. As well as it seems like Omega has done more in this entire series for Crosshair than the whole batch has! I love anything with Crosshair and Omega!!!! Wish I could find more fan art, fanfictions etc.
Why Crosshair's treatment in the first season of the bad batch hurt so much:
They had to make the less talkative man with the rough personality into the villain. They could have showed that despite his coldness he's just as important part of the family as anyone else. They could have showed what made him behave this way.
He barely got any screentime. How could we understand his feelings if we don't even seen him?
His brothers didn't even try to save him while they thought he was only with the empire because of the chip. This pushed Crosshair toward the empire, even without his chip...
Crosshair was alone. We didn't see him smile once. He didn't have any wholesome moments, he didn't get to be there when Omega first saw hyperspace or try out Mantell mix.
He was broken more and more with each episode he appeared in. His eyes only got sadder and he became someone else during this season. This is not the lighthearted Crosshair who plays with Wrecker and has sarcastic comments. That Crosshair is gone. This season broke him.
I LOVE Omega and Crosshair!!!! He needs to come home and bond with Omega lol!!!! Please for my own sanity and because people are NOT making enough fanfictions with these two...unless I’m just not finding many (only know of three sites that are for fanfiction).
Crosshair is completely fine and chilling with Omega. Canon, who? We don’t know them.
The rest of the batch with Omega:
Wrecker, Tech, Echo, Hunter and Rex
I think I’m gonna give Hunter a do-over for this series, since the first one I did was literally the meme and the others became much more personal, whoops.
Image ID: [ An image of Star Wars characters Crosshair and Omega. Crosshair’s body is facing the viewer, angled slightly towards the right. He is wearing his armor minus helmet. With his right arm he is holding on to Omega’s leg, with his right he is pointing to somewhere to the right. He is chewing on a toothpick and he has the tiniest smile on his lips while speaking. Omega is perched on his shoulders, holding a pair of binoculars and looking somewhere to the right, but not in the same direction as Crosshair is pointing. End ID]
YES!!! AND the put the CHILD into one by herself! Only makes sense for her to try and save AZ (thank you Crosshair...love anything with Crosshair and Omega for some reason)!!!
Dave really put the two problem children in a "get along" pod lol
I love The Dad Bad Batch, and I won't deny it. However, there are a couple of things that I think should have been added to the series. For example, overprotection. How do you like the idea that in the third season, after the return of Omega, the Hunter began to have bouts of overprotective behavior? He just started having panic attacks as soon as Omega disappeared from his field of vision. At first, even if she kept in touch with him, told him where and with whom she would be, he would still start to panic, think that the Empire had taken his daughter, look for her all over the island, and so on. But as the season progressed, it gradually faded away. It wouldn't have gone away until the end of the story, but he would have stopped being so nervous as soon as she walked around the corner.
AAAAAAA, HER PALM IS SO SMALL THAT HE HOLDS IT WITH HIS FINGERS. AAAAAAAAAAA
Not so long ago, I thought about the future of Omega and that's what should happen to her if there is a series about her and her adventures within the resistance (or not about her, but about other characters, where she will be a minor character who will not appear in the plot very often).
The creators are obliged to add a mission in which a girl accidentally finds a small child who has lost his parents. And not just that, the parents went somewhere and were killed, but the child did not know it, or they died under the rubble of the building, no. They were killed by the Imperials in front of their baby in a cruel way, which is why the boy stopped talking, it turned out to be so traumatic.
Omega, being a clone of Django, took him under her wing, planning to put him in foster care at the Pabu. However, in the course of some events, the boy became attached to her and she became his mother. Naturally, they periodically visited the Pabu and the boy, after the death of his parents, began to smile, eat normally, and at some point began to speak words like "mom", "grandfather", "uncle".
Just imagine the reaction of the Batches to the fact that their girl became a mother, and a mute child who began to speak after some time. Yes, one word at a time, but you must agree, when the child fell silent, and then began to speak a little after a long period of time, it is impossible not to be happy for him.
It seems to me that there will be the same reaction as the heroes of the Soviet film "Men". According to the plot, the main character there found out that his ex died, and before that, many years ago, she gave birth to his daughter. She is not yet of age and someone needs to take custody of her and her younger brothers (as I understood they were not the biological children of that woman). One of the boys was mute and at the end of the movie he started talking. The man was happy, as if it was his own son. I think in the case of Batchy's grandson, they will react the same way.

Not so long ago, I decided to review the first seasons of the Bad Batch and realized one thing.
In this scene, Omega is sitting in the first pilot's seat. It would seem that there is nothing wrong with that, but I like to think that this is some kind of omen. A hint that the girl will take her brother's place in the future.
In the second season, he teaches her while sitting in the copilot's seat. In the end, due to these lessons, Omega became a pilot.
But there was a hint of this back in the first season, when she was put in Tech's place.
I think I've already written this, but repetition is the mother of teaching, so I'll write it again. Crosshair is one of the best characters in the series, due to his character arch. I like that in the first episode he was in the mask of a sarcastic and unemotional clone who doesn't care about Omega, and who has a conflict with the Hunter. In the last episode, there is no conflict, he calmly shows all his emotions and feelings, and Omega Cross protects in the same way as other brothers. Maybe the last one, but he still awakened his paternal instinct, inherent in most clones.
As much as I was hurt by the ending of The Bad batch, it's worth admitting that the story came out decent.
In fact, this is a story about Omega growing up. In the beginning, she is a little girl who has not seen life, did not really stand on the ground, and in the end she is an adult girl who is able to protect herself and her loved ones, who has seen everything in her life. She decided to fight on, but without involving her brothers. She leaves them at the Pabu and joins the resistance, on her own. The hunter sees that his baby has grown up and lets her go, because the party has taught her a lot, which means there is no reason to worry as before. In general, the Omega line in the series is one of the best, along with the Cross line.
They are, in fact, the most prescribed heroes here. The sniper started his career as a smug villain, and ended up as a caring brother whose mask of a cold man broke and he began to openly show his emotions. He redeemed himself to his brothers and sister, regained their trust and lives peacefully in the Pabu. Interestingly, in the final, he lost his ever-trembling hand and was finally able to get into handcuffs, although he often smeared all season.
Tech was really dead and that didn't make it any less painful. I was among those who accepted his death, but I was ready for him to be returned to the plot and given an interesting line in the plot.
I won't say anything about Echo and Wreker, because I didn't notice anything here. Except for the latter, we finally saw the beast mode, when the clone, with his wounds, blows enemies right and left.
Many things, it seems to me, were not implemented, many things were out of place. I was waiting for Wolfe to play a role in the series, that Vos had been captured by the Empire and Ventress would come after him. But they both ended up being purely for the sake of fanservice.
In short, I rate the series as a whole at 7/10. Because I missed a lot, missed it somewhere, but in general it was interesting.
Omega: * shows that he can play strategy, calmly shoots a blaster, uses wit and can gamble*
The Dad Batch:
Tech: *wakes up after a head injury* Where am I? This is not a Camino!
Hunter: You seem to have amnesia. Therefore, I will explain briefly: The Republic, the Jedi Order and Kamino are no more, the Empire has replaced the Republic, which is not the best option, but as if we have a choice; now we live in a Pabu, you have a wife and two children, and this little girl is our Omega sister.
Tech: Wait, am I married?
Hunter: Yes, here on it * points to Phee*.
Tech: ...
Crosshair: I also walked away from the news that you have a girlfriend for the first six months. I came to my senses only when I was asked to give a speech at the wedding. And there I didn't even notice how you had twins.
AU, in which the Tech turned out to be alive, it's just that all this time he was hiding from the Empire in some backwater.
Tech: I'm back!
Phee: *hugs and kisses him* Don't do that anymore, brown eyes!
Crosshair: WAIT, DID HE HAVE A GIRLFRIEND ALL THIS TIME?
Omega: Did I mention that?
I love their mom and daughter duet. They're so cute.
Evolution of hugs between Omega and Echo
Echo being surprise and needing a moment to hugs Omega back.
Echo been more ready this time and have his arms open to welcome her.
He dropping on one knee, arms open and ready to hug back Omega.
I like the evolution of their relationship. In the beginning, Crosshair somehow didn't give a damn about this hound. In the fourth episode, little has changed. It even seemed to me that he tolerated her for Omega's sake, and in the end planned to leave her (but then again, Omega knows how to convince). And now he treats her pretty well. He strokes her, scratches her, does not chase her away or drive her away from himself. I suspect he was in favor of leaving Batcher. I think they will be a good team by the final. A killer duo, considering it's supposed to be Omega's pet.
But technically, he is the only one of the entire defective party who carried Omega in his arms

And what did you expect from the series called The Dad Batch?
He called him Omega's Dad.
He called him Omega's Dad.
He called him Omega's Dad.

I want more
Family reunion. We've been waiting for this since the season 2 finale. And I am completely silent about the embrace of father and daughter.
the way his hands tighten around her and his eyes are closed
Inspired by episode 4 of season 3.
Yes Crosshair we missed you! We need you to come baaaack!
You’re making us TBB fans cry! 😭😭😭
Father daughter 👨👧 Hunter and Omega sad 😭and cute✨MOMENTS✨ by me!
It is so hard to force myself to edit something or come up with ideas for a video when I’m still crying about Crosshair and Tech. The next part of my Tbb editing needs to be the second half of season 2 and I donut know if I’m ready. Every time I rewatch Crosshair and Tech and the rest of the batch or even the other clones on screen I feel like Im torturing myself. I need to know that they are both going to be alright. This is something that I am way too serious about and I’m worried that I might not get what I want in Season 3 of TBB. I have watched clones face many trials and tragedies that have broken my heart to see over and over again. I feel for them yet they are just characters that I watch on tv. I will probably not stop crying about this until Season 3 comes out even if it doesn’t get the ending I want I’m sure it will at least ease my mind. Either way I have to accept the outcome. I haven’t given up on Tech or Crosshair, but I also need to prepare for the worst just like Master Luminara Unduli.
In all seriousness I think Crosshair and Wrecker are the most underrated duo. They balance each other perfectly. One being the giddy overly happy and exciting brother. The other being a petulant and dark brother. I could see them being the perfect balance as brothers to Omega and themselves. Wrecker was the first one to say he missed Crosshair even after getting shot by him. Crosshair even knew where to shoot Wrecker in a spot that wouldn't kill him. They have always defended one another while also bickering in the way siblings do. They have always treated each other more like family compared to the rest of the batchers. Sure Hunter takes the role as dad, but I feel like his dad moments will ways take on a more Sargent or older brother role and acts in charge. He also is someone that Omega looks up to as more of a father figure. Someone she aspires to be but is often too overprotective of Omega. Tech's love language is acts. He shows his love for his family through his actions. Not his emotions. Echo is a weird one for me. I'd like to think he takes on an older military mom/brother role, but the only thing he really cares about is Omega's studies and his clone brothers as far as I can see. Omega just loves him a lot because he isn't always around. He has other desires to save his other clone brothers throughout the galaxy and play his part as a soldier. He still cares for Omega's safety but he trusts Hunter to do that as his brother. So I feel like Wrecker and Crosshair are the best balance for Omega.
In a situation where all of @cloned-eyes shower clones are all naked in the same room together this is how I think they'd all react. Cody and Rex would be looking around to see who they should pin down and fuk first like the dominant daddies they are. Tech would get embarrassed and cover his face but is secretly blushing hard underneath. Hunter would make a move on Echo. Echo can't decide if he likes Hunter coming on to him or not, basically questioning his sexuality. And Crosshair would be making goo goo eyes at Cody, wanting to be his sub boi.
Yes, these are the random gay thoughts that I get. You're welcome.
This Wrecker edit I just found on tik tok warms my heart!🥰
Sneak peek of my Bad Batch edit Part 3 coming soon!
This may have been the first episode but still a reminder of all the trauma that Echo holds on to 😔
My Horny Ass decided to make this and honestly I’m in love. Who knew one song would make me love these characters even more than I already do? 😂
