The Bad Batch - Blog Posts

Patching Up & Post-Mission Debrief (AU)

AKA a 3 character sketch that got way WAY out of hand.

Close ups:

He would've been too powerful if he looked like this

Also gorgeous art!!

night mode tech

Oh my god, I love this, he and this art is stunning

[Image ID: Digital illustration of Tech from Star Wars: The Bad Batch. Tech is sitting on the open hatch of the Havoc Marauder, holding onto a pulley cable with his right arm. Slight design edits have been made to his mercenary armor: most notably are stronger orange and pink accents. The second image is a close-up of his face. End ID.]

I finally got time to work on a bigger piece and it had to be the bad batch!

I love these idiots and I feel so robbed of not having gotten canon old designs for the rest of them outside of Hunter and Omega

Also I wanted Tech back because he's my favourite nerd

I imagine this picture was taken earlier that day that Omega left to join the rebel alliance

Loved this part of the episode, love how the clones just roasted him

Unfortunately, yes.

I guess I'm trying to manifest a good ending for season 3 with these doodles, I just want them all back together :((

This is not a want, it's a need

I need something like this to happen at the end

everyone be quiet i'm manifesting

I really liked this scene in the bad batch and I think they're the perfect fit for this scene

Both Quasar and Korar are used to being the leaders and now that there is someone else just as capable to fill in that role for them it gets a little dicey

When Quasar's the only one repairing the ship I don't think the rest of the crew has a lot of right to complain when they keep breaking it further before Quasar has a chance to fix it

Some old Tech doodles because I love this dorky man an unhealthy amount

If there is a god I only have one wish for season three, it is to see this man again

We got wet hair Hunter (win)

We got violence but no bad batch deaths (this is a win)

Tech is confirmed…dead (lose)

Hunter screaming/groaning audio (for free) (win)

Crosshair loses his HAND?? (lose)

The batch grow old with Omega :( (a bittersweet win)

guyysss the tears haven’t stopped 😀it’s been like three hours😀😀😀 im so fucking sad man, the ending was beautiful- literally so lovely, but my heart is broken that my favorite characters stories have ended. My favorite man ever is old and gray (still a mega dilf tho I need him sooo bad) but he’s aging :(( and he has to watch his little girl go :((( like man. im so emotional. like stoppp it hurtssss omg :((( it was such a perfect ending to a perfect show, I couldn’t be more pleased- but im still SO SADDDD I cannot rewatch this episode EVER (only rewatching the free Hunter whimper audio scene that shit was fire)

His grey hairs and distant eyes I can’t guys I can’t it’s so over for my mental health for the next 300 years

THIS EPISODE HAD ME STRESSED OUT OF MY FUCKING MIND😭💀

Grew a couple of grey hairs but yk !!✌️🤩 wtv !! im fine !!

THEY ARE ALL SO HOT. GOD. MOVE OVER RAMFART IT’S MY TURN.

AND FUCK YEAAA THEYRE GOING TO TANTISS!!! imagine Omega escapes before they siege the mountain tho. and so like. when they do go in she isn’t there. she’s gone. she’s made it out. but they don’t know that so they go in, guns a blazing, just for them to be informed that she isn’t there anymore. And like. They get captured. It all goes wrong.

And Omega doesn’t know.

She won’t know.

not for a very, very long time.

ANYWAY IM GOING TO BED GOOD NIGHT THIS EPISODE WAS SEXY

AHHHHHHSHABIS YOU ARE SO RIGHT OMG

I love this a normal (INSANE) amount OMG

Time to bring this storyline back... @giganonyx

MY HEART FUCKING DROPPED TO MY ASS WHEN CROSSHAIRS SHOT. DIDNT. MAKE. IT.

GOD AND POOR WRECKER UGHHHH NOOO. HE TRIED TO SAVE GONKY. HIS PANICKED YELL. IM. CRYING. THE MARAUDER?? MY HOUSE?? BLEW UP?? TECHS GLASSES AND LULA SIGHTING. DOMICILE VOCABULARY DROP(NERD DETECTED?).WE GOT WET HUNTER AND IT WAS SO FUCKING HOT AND HIS HAIR WAS A LITTLE MOIST BUT THEY SHOULD’VE GONE THE EXTRA MILE AND MADE IT ABSOLUTELY DRENCHED, STICKING ON TO HIS SKIN, BANDANA GONE. THEY REALLY TOOK EVERYTHING FROM US THIS EPISODE.

These eps were so SICK and TWISTED I’m. It’s so. It’s so maraudover. Pabover. ALSO EITHER A) THATS TECH, OR B) TECH IS THE ONE THAT HEMLOCK HAS IN HIS SECRET HOUSE OF HORRORS IN THE BACK OF WALMART THAT WE BRIEFLY SAW.

IM SO ILL BYE IM GOING TO REWATCH HUNTER DOING THAT SEXY SPINNY KICK TAKE DOWN THING WHEN HE WAS IN THE GUNSHIP AND HIM EMERGING FROM THE OCEAN AFTER SWIMMING A MILLION MILES (SO HOT BRO).

Writing some Sith Hunter things. He’s a little crazy but that’s ok !! Insanity gives spice !!

Wrecker is also a Sith, he’s just (surprisingly) not as unhinged.

(Hunter cannot stand the voices, Wrecker has no idea what bro is talking about ???)

In other words, I love this murder duo

*if yall are wondering, yes, Hunter and wrecker have been force sensitive since they were cadets in this AU, however, tech isn’t. Crosshair is *slightly* force sensitive, but not nearly as much as the other two.

Also, Wrecker and Hunter believe Omega, Crosshair, and Tech, are all dead. They “watched them die”, and kinda tapped into the dark side subconsciously as a treat (they don’t know they are still alive, they can hardly feel their presence anymore (what the dark side does to a mf))

Echo got separated from all of them(thinks they are all dead), but is trying to locate the “ghost” and “wraith”, two force sensitive beings who have been slaughtering the Empires forces. (Surprise !! Crazy Hunter and Less crazy Wrecker jumpscare !!)

LET ME COOK

DO U GUYS

DO YOU GUYS THINK THAT MAYBE

JUST MAYBE

CROSSHAIR MIGHT KNOW THAT TECH IS AN OPERATIVE (SPECIFICALLY THE ONE HE WAS THROWING HANDS WITH)

OK LIKE HEAR ME OUT BUT

Crosshair definitely is STILL hiding something. The operatives make him MADLY uncomfortable- the sense of strange brotherhood between them scares him more than anything we’ve seen so far, maybe because, well, loyalty is a big deal to him, but also because one of them may actually be his brother.

He did not mention he was being put through operative✨ pre school ✨until Howzer pressed for answers, and he was forced to spill some beans. But I don’t think that’s all he’s keeping secret. Like, he wanted to keep the operative as FAR away from his brothers as possible(ie, drawing fire away, 1v1ing)- why? Could it just be he wants to deal with these clones on his own? Spare his brothers the fight? Protect them?

Or is it because he doesn’t want to traumatize them further with a brainwashed Tech? He doesn’t want their memory of their “dearly departed” brother to be marred by this…hollow, empty assassin before him. He can’t do that to them. But he *knows*, and it’s eating him alive.

There’s still so much he’s keeping from everyone, and not even Omega knows what he witnessed on Tantiss. He knows things, and he’s too afraid to admit them.

…..IDK THESE EPISODES KILLED ME MENTALLY THEY WERE SO GOOD BUT LEFT ME WITH SO MANY QUESTIONSSSSS AHHH

Plussss I wanna see more Hunter and wrecker content PLEASE my pookies need more screen time before I become a crosswhore AND Hunter girlie (one Star Wars man obsession is ENOUGH PLEASE).

ALSO THE THEORY THAT HUNTER DIES THIS SEASON IS KINDA STARTING TO FERMENT IN MY BRAIN BC WHY ELSE WOULD THEY ESTABLISH CROSSHAIR AS AN INCREASINGLY PARENTAL, DADDY MATERIAL GUY??? ESPECIALLY WITH HUNTER NOTICING OMEGA AND CROSS GROWING CLOSER I am ill do not let me think

I can see it now, Hunter sacrifices himself, but before he does, he tells Crosshair that “I know you’ll protect her. I trust you.” And then he fucking DIES, content with knowing Crosshair can be her newfound dad and protect her when he can no longer do so (I am in pain).

also when Hunter stood up for Crosshair >>>>> THATS MY MAN YALL HE WAS FR LIKE “ay man only I can shit on my brother man fuck off”

ALSO when Crosshair said “too bad” something changed in me (trying to resist crosswhore feelings)

There are two wolves inside of me (Hunter Wife (he’s the love of my LIFE) and Crosswhore) (actually three bc I’m also. A wrecker simp.)

TBB SEASON 3 EPISODE 4 RAMBLING INCOMING (HAPPY NOISES)

CAN I GET A FUCKING AMEN ??? WE HAVE BEEN BLESSED?? WITH THIS GLORIOUS EPISODE?? HOLY SHART??? LIKE HELLO?? I AM SO UNWELL

WE GET CROSSHAIR AND OMEGA BONDING + SIBLING ACTIVITIES (GAMBLING, BRIBERY, MURDER, AND THEFT LMAO)

THEN WE GET CROSSHAIR IN CIVVY CLOTHING?? HELLO???? (OK I never realized how his eyes LOOKED yk?? Like, they are so similar to a regular clones’ I just never realized! and how expressive he is with his body language, and eyes!! Loved the animation this ep.)

AIQNAIWNOQQ THAT WEIRDO IMPERIAL CALLED CROSSHAIR OMEGAS DAD AWWWWWWWWW I’m so ILL

THAT ONE GUY GETTING BLASTED AWAY BY THE SHIP THRUSTERS IM CRYINGGGG

THEN OH MY GODDDD

OUAGHHHH

WHEN I TELL U seeing the Marauder there waiting for their ship, I almost CRIED

I could feel the relief and the hope and the TEARS oh my god

WRECKER AND HUNTER WERE SO HAPPY TO SEE HER AND SHE WAS SO HAPPY TO SEE THEM SHE WAS CRYING I WAS CRYING WE WERE ALL CRYING WE CRODE HUNTER HUG WRECKER HUG HE RAN TO CARRY HER I AM IN LITERALLY SHAMBLES anyway im never recovering from that ✌️ 😘

AND THEN

AND THEN

HUNTER AND WRECKER LOCKED EYES WITH CROSSHAIR AND THE MOOD FUCKING SHIFTED

LIKE OH MY GODDDD

THE WAY THEY VISIBLY TENSED, YOU COULD FEEL THE TENSION AND SUSPICION THROUGH THE SCREEN

Hunter’s eyes darkened, Wreckers eyes darkened, they both clenched their fist, their posture straightens because that’s a threat. He has been trying to kill them EVERY TIME they have met. OF COURSE they would respond that way to the man who betrayed them (EVEN WHEN THE CHIP WAS NO LONGER WORKING).

BUT HES A CHANGED MAN GUYS HES YOUR BROTHER AGAIN PLEASE YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE ME CROSSHAIR SAY SOMETHING OMEGA SAY SOMETHING RAGHHHHHH

this episode. Is everything to me. We stay WINNING. BUT I’m also so scared for the upcoming episodes bc if we already got the reunion then what the FUCK is going to happen later on ??? Ik Omega wanted to free the other prisoners, so they will probably do that, but I’m genuinely so afraid.

TBB SEASON 3 SPOILERS

HEADS UP- I WILL BE TAGGING EACH OF MY EPISODE REVIEW THINGS WITH “tbb s3 spoilers”, AND OTHER SPOILER TAGS, PLEASE BLOCK THESE TAGS SO U DONT GET SPOILED!!!

AHHHHH OMEGA MY BABY. She has a pony tail stoppp my child is all grown up I will cry. Ok but she ate the new hairstyle she is slaying.

ERGH SHE HAS BEEN THERE 150 DAYS. Sick and twisted. She contrasts SO heavily with the whole sterile, orderly environment, it’s literally heartbreaking to watch. Forced into this mindless routine, her hopeful attitude constantly being beaten down on?? HURTING. GET HER OUT OF THIS HELL HOLE.

GOD seeing Crosshair look so broken BROKE ME. His shaking hands??? They took away the ONE thing he still had- his superior sniping skills, his steady hand. They took that AWAY from him. FUCKED UP. THEY TORE HIM DOWN. I can’t I’m so sad.

DADDY’S HOMEEEJWJWISNWIANQOQOQB (Hunter was on screen for the first time this season) (He is SO FINE)(MY HUSBAND HAS RETURNED FROM HIS HIATUS IN A TRAUMATIZED STATE BUT NONETHELESS HAS RETURNED TO GRACE MY SCREEN AND BE THE LIGHT OF MY LIFE)

I had a horrible sense of dread overtake my body when he said something like “our mission isn’t over yet”… like idk I felt so ILL. PAIN. WHY do I have the feeling my man isn’t going to make it SHUT UP.

ALSO HIM MAKING RECKLESS DECISIONS???? The kidnapping of his daughter and the death of his brother have done a NUMBER on this man.

WRECKER my cutie patootie!! Yk it’s bad when Wrecker starts to become a voice of reason (which, Hunter in his desperate mindset, promptly ignores 😭)

HAHBANQKNSJQQKO CROSSHAIR IS SO FUNNY DURING HIS ESCAPE WITH OMEGA- literal snark fest

Need Omega bullying a mouse droid on repeat.

Stop mouse droid bullying 😭

OOOO NALA SE’S WARNING TO OMEGA TO LEAVE?? I’m scared. And Omega ate it up tho. She said “say less lmao I’m gone ✌️”.

Did palpy not feel a disturbance into the force. Was bro so into the “project Necromancer deets” he couldn’t tell his vessel was peacing out. Common Palpy L.

RUN OMEGA TAKE YOUR SARCASTIC BROTHER WITH U

JUST A GIRL AND HER DOG AND HER GRUMPY BROTHER EHEHEHEHE

OUGAHHH OK OK IM BOUNCING AROUND EPISODES HERE BUT STAY WITH ME

WHEN CROSSHAIR SAID “forget the hound, Omega.”, it lowkey felt like he was talking about himself. He was telling her to forget him, he was a broken animal, with no point in nurturing back to health. She needs to give up on him if she wants to move forward. BUT SHE DIDNT BECAUSE MAMA DIDNT RAISE NO UNLOYAL LOSER. NO. OMEGA IS THE REALEST ONEEEEE.

EMERIE you confuse me. I hate u yet am intrigued by u. Looking forward to her character development ahhhh.

HUNTER MY POOKIE BEAR BACK TO HIM BC that man was doing FLIPS chopping off the eldritch horror vines. They snatched his brother and he said “hell naw hoe let go of my BRO” and just. Went to town. Me when Hunter exists 🎉🎉🎉🎉

OH OU OH IHHIWHAIANQO ALSO THE MYSTERY GUY IN THE GREEN TACTICAL ARMOR?? IS THE ONE DOING THE “TORTURE” OR WHATEVER TO CROSSHAIR AND THAT GROUP OF CLONES??? If that’s really tech I’m gonna scream. You’re telling me he’s torturing his own brother. Tech would never even THINK about doing shit like that the man just wants to read nerdy newspapers. Desecration of the nerd lifestyle. OK I REALLY HOPE ITS HIM. LIKE I REALLY DO. OOO PLEASE I WILL CRY. WHY ELSE WOULD THEY SHOW THIS MYSTERY CLONE. NO NEED. IT HAS TO BE BROWN EYES (delusion).

OK I AM SO TIRED MY HEAD HURTS MY LIFE IS CHANGING Jesse we need to cook (I need to make tbb art) BUT I AM GOING TO BED FIRST

So is Werewolf!Hunter scared or nervous that he might hurt omega?

He is a creature born of the Sith, after all.

teehee I’m back to drawing bad batch thingsss— gonna be answering all of your lovely asks in my inbox as soon as I can!! Take this fun sketch of Hunter, and the fear of his more…fluffy, toothy side.

He is definitely afraid of hurting her. Bloodlust is built into the curse, and sometimes, his instincts become difficult to quell. It’s in moments such as these, that he has to take certain measures to ensure he doesn’t do anything he’ll come to regret.

New chapter! Heavy gore in this one, so be warned. 

If I made a discord server, how many of you would join?

It would be a place to easily reach me, I would probably live-stream WIPs, you’d get to hang around and talk to other clone simps, share your art, writings, headcanons, AUs, ocs, play some games, and just chat or hang around.

Fluff with werewolf hunter and omega please

Because I'm a sucker for fluff

Ask and ye shall receive! This was so cute to do! Idk why it took so long fr 💀 BUT I hope you like it ❤️❤️ thank you for requesting 😩😭💞💞

The quality decreases as you go on but SHH

Send me more asks about werewolf Hunter doing werewolf Hunter things I like it

Crosshair got to wear it, so why not Hunter?

Me ignoring canon so my fanfiction can exist

Let him stab people let him KILL

….ESPECIALLY AFTER THE FINAL EPS LET HIM MESS SOME PEOPLE UP WITH HIS KNIFE LET HIM CARVE UP SOME BITCHES

This man is going to become absolutely unhinged.. He’s going to be filled with so much rage, regret, sorrow… He’s going to be out for blood and vengeance. This man is honestly going to become Joel Miller, as I said in my previous post. He’s going to hunt down them all down until he gets his daughter, and Crosshair, back. Hemlock is right, Hunter is very paternal, and because of that, he’s going to go to the absolute end of the galaxy to get her back and rip every single last one of them apart.

My dad was downloading some pictures from my moms phone to his laptop, but upon seeing the downloaded pictures he gave her a weird look like “what is this??”

We were like “what”, and he responded with “there’s just.. Star Wars pictures.”

And my soul left my body because we realized it was downloading everything from the CLOUD

THERE ARE SOME THINGS IN MY GALLERY THAT ID RATHER THEY NOT SEE?? THEY ARENT READY FOR WEREWOLF HUNTER STOP ✋✋✋

HE EVEN CHUCKLED AND SHOWED ME THE SCREEN- IT WAS MY HUNTER STASH‼️‼️‼️

“It’s all just that Rambo guy Giganonyx likes a lot.”

STOPPPP THE HUMILATION ✋✋💀💀😭😭

Pray for me y’all my goofy cringe ass is NOT going to survive this

This episode single handedly made me like Phee a lot more, cuz ngl…she a real one💀

I AM SO ILL WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY GOING TO DO TO HIM

HE JUST WOKE UP NOOOOOO THEY CANT DO THIS TO HIM AGAIN GROSS SOBBING

We were robbed of wet rat Hunter

Tell me why the animators did everything in their power to avoid showing Hunter with wet hair on screen 😩 ✋

THEY LITERALLY SHOWED HIM GETTING TO SHORE ONLY TO BE BLOCKED BY THE GASPING FORM OF WRECKER(lol) AND THEN HE TURNS AWAY FROM THE CAMERA A N D T H E N HE STANDS UP BUT HIS HEAD IS DIRECTLY CUT OUT OF FRAME WHAT KIND OF MONSTERS DID THIS anyway

Hunter using his senses more often in the newest episode my beloved my heart my darling my dearest my bby my love

IT WAS SO HOT 😭😩

I’m late to the party but we all know how good this episode was, especially with Omega and Tech (I almost cried 😀👍)

HUNTER STARING AT THE ELECTRICAL STORM AT THE END WHILE HIS HAIR BLEW IN THE WIND DRAMATICALLY GOT ME GIGGLING BLUSHING KICKING MY FEET TWIRLING MY HAIR HNNRGHHH CLAWING AT THE WALLS *shrivels up and dies*

SPOILERS FOR TBB SEASON 2

These episodes left me broken and in absolute shambles. It’s the way my sister and I were both sitting there in silence, grossly sobbing into our hands when we realized that Echo was going with Rex. I CRIED SO HARD. How can I live love laugh in these conditions?!?

What if something happens to Echo and that’s what causes Rex to kinda leave the rebellion?!? NEVERMIND I DONT WANNA THINK ABOUT IT.

Can we talk about that clone assassin for a minute?? I know Rex mentioned how he was different, had his signature/number removed, and he was obviously…interesting, compared to clones with activated chips. My guess? Maybe prototype of a death trooper or purge trooper? Seeing his interaction with Rex was so.. scary, I loved it. I am definitely more afraid for clones in the empire now, because I’m pretty sure they’re gonna be turned into mindless killers like that guy. And now I’m so scared for Cody- like yeah, rampart *said* he went awol, but do we know that for certain?? What if he got death/purge troopered?!?! akbhquwwqn

CANT BELIEVE RAMPART GOT ARRESTED TOO. That’s so crazy to me. Like DAMN. I wonder who is gonna fill his role? New main antagonist for the batch? Maybe they just straight up gotta fight a Sith Lord now lmfao 0-60 in seconds 😭.

I can hardly type Im so heart broken rn omfg 💀💀 echo my beloved pls come home to us when you are ready 💔💔💔😭😭😭😭

I do think it’ll be cool to see the original bad batch dynamic without Echo. AND I WANNA SEE AN EPISODE WITH ECHO AND REX COMMITTING CRIMES
