Tbb Echo - Blog Posts
V info page!!
Vihan (nicknamed V by everyone) is the son of Riyo Chuchi and Echo, and a product of a one night stand (Gregor got them drunk), and they co-parent him, and as well as joining the rebellion, he’s an avid Palpatine hater in the senate!!
3/4 are done!! i just need to finish Zay’s now 😔
More info under cut!!
Full name is Vihan “V” Fives Chuchi (Echo chose his middle name)
Projected on him with his sexuality, and the fact that he just likes who he likes (which is literally me)
He met Palpatine due to his mother’s work, and he told V that his hair was ‘scruffy and unkempt’, so, out of spite he keeps it long
Dresses like an absolute loser when he’s not on missions or in gear and claims he’s a fashion icon (he’s not, Nav is)
Is the kind of person to wear baggy ass pyjamas to a formal rebel meeting
When he’s staying on Pabu to visit his dad, his hair goes really curly due to the sun, and then gets really frizzy after he leaves
Helps Riyo in the senate as much as he can, and fills out paperwork and searches documents in his free time to send to her
He collects materials for Zay to fidget with, and always wears whatever she makes
His necklace is the same colour as her kyber crystal so he wears it all the time
Is also very slightly force sensitive, and can just about maybe lift a pencil with it, but doesn’t train or anything, only meditates with Omega and Zay to keep them company (cough cough annoy them), since he can barely use the force
im still in a depressive ass episode but that’s okay because why be sad when you can expand on your ocs!!
The Bad Batch if they auditioned for school musicals!!
(only making this bc i auditioned for a musical earlier today and i was so nervous)
Hunter: Auditions for the main male lead, flips his hair about eighty times whilst auditioning, only ever sings one verse of the song but always gets told it was more than enough and he did great, got the main male lead once, other than that, mostly background characters, because the performing arts teachers really like him.
Wrecker: Comforts the younger years who are auditioning for the first time and are nervous, usually goes for backstage crew to help out, but is happy to play any extras, always gives his opinion to his brothers when they’re auditioning.
Tech: Knows every single song and researches every character in advance, but applies for stage lights. Somehow gets talked into playing an understudy for one of the lead roles and absolutely smashing it (little hc of that he meets Phee through this, as she’s playing the love interest for the character that he is an undestudy for.)
Crosshair: Auditions for chorus, gets chorus, Hunter and Echo have tried to convince him to go for lead roles because, in their words, “why not”, but he always refused and did chorus, and was really good friends with one of the male drama teachers who said Crosshair was “eccentric”
Echo: Auditions for chorus, gets main cast, he actually has an amazing singing voice, and rehearses his song all the time, is really sweet to everyone else on the cast as a whole, but everyone loves him (who wouldn’t?)
Omega: auditions for main cast in her first or second year, but usually one of the younger characters, so she gets it, her brothers all come to see her in the musical
little bonus :)
Fives: Doesn’t audition, but goes to every single show to support his brothers and absolutely loves it, all of it, and sometimes even helps them audition by running lines with them.
wip of my faves!!!!
They’re actually my babies
I still need to add shading and rendering and stuff but have a coloured sketch of the only three ocs that I can actually draw
I was gonna post this ages ago but like,,
Son of the Republic, Hero of the Rebellion
(basically another Star Wars oc)
This is Vihan Chuchi, he was the result of a one night stand between Riyo and Echo (whoops) (Gregor got them both drunk) (they co-parent him)
He’s also like a hairstyle extraordinaire with the amount of different styles I debated giving him
I am planning on giving him a full outfit at some point, I just wanted to give him tattoos
closeups under cut :))
yay
THIS IS STUNNING
The background, characters, drawing, everything is absolutely gorgeous 🤌🤌
You are cordially invited…. 🥰💚💕

I think this is the best thing ive ever created

Idk why it just felt like a conversation they’d have too 😭

posted on ao3 for the first time in a millennia, the idea for this came to me in the middle of my english lit exam, and i NEEDED to write it
am i going to finish this? probably not, but here’s a screenshot redraw of my fav clone <3
been getting back into drawing recently!! i’ve done a couple doodles and screenshot redraws (mostly of wrecker and echo) and tried to draw crosshair, but it definitely needs some work
opinions/tips would be great if anyone has any :))
I try not to write negative posts, but. . . man, TBB Season 3 has brought out the worst in me. I waited (hopeful, eager, naïve) an entire year just to be disappointed. Joy.
So. . . @techsbrowneyes expressed concern that they (they being the writers) made CX-2 resemble Tech in every possible way on purpose just to spark hope amongst Tech fans and keep them coming back. If this is indeed the case, then. . . shame on the writers! How cruel can you be?
This post isn’t to say CX-2 isn’t Tech. There’s still a good possibility—albeit a very, very slim one—that Tech is still alive. But. . . my hope is fast dwindling. Hope used to be a major theme in Star Wars. What happened to that? This season is far from hopeful. Far. It’s been nothing but dark and depressing and. . . dare I say. . . meaningless. It feels like we’ve been going around in circles.
TBB season 3 is inferior compared with its predecessors. Those seasons are masterpieces. This one? Not so much. And it isn’t just because Tech is gone. No. . . Echo has scarcely been in it. Hunter and Wrecker have taken a backseat. Hunter seems to be severely detached; it’s like he doesn’t really care anymore (I miss the old Hunter). Each time Tech is brought up, they act like he never mattered to them. I mean, c’mon! Show a little emotion.
This season hasn’t been very fulfilling. No longer do I look forward to episodes. I’ll watch the remaining episodes, but if the finale doesn’t end well, I may never watch season 3 again. I’ll continue to bask in the glory that is season 1 and 2, and the Bad Batch episodes from season 7 of the Clone Wars, but that’s it.
I was so looking forward to TBB seaon 3. Should I hope that the last episodes will be any good? Probably not. Nevertheless, I will, because hope is all I have left right now, and that’s what Star Wars is built on, right?
The fourth addition to the ‘Bad Batchers as Horses’ series. Here we have Echo, the grumpy one of the squad. Grumpy but adorable.
Rewatching The Bad Batch for the millionth time. It never gets old.
My hope has been somewhat restored. You guys… there’s a strong possibility Tech is indeed still alive. Just watch the panel… lots of hints. Maybe I’m just seeing and hearing what I want to see and hear but… Tech is still alive.
I am excited for S3. I hope we get to see the original Bad Batchers together again. I hope the wait isn’t too long. And… and I think we are indeed going to see a Clone rebellion.
What if we never get to see the five of them together again?
After TBB panel today, a little bit of hope died in me that Tech might still be alive. But with S3 being the last one, I can’t stand the thought of not getting to see the whole squad back together again. As far as I’m concerned, no ending will be acceptable except for an ending in which they are all present and alive. And final season or not, without Tech there is no show.
Reunion
*After escaping Mount Tantiss, Crosshair, Tech, and Omega exit the shuttle they stole from Hemlock to rendezvous with Hunter, Wrecker, and Echo*
*Wrecker gets all teary-eyed seeing Tech alive*
Hunter, to Tech: Y-you’re alive!
Tech: *adjusting his new goggles* Was there ever any doubt?
*Echo smiles*
Hunter, to Crosshair: It’s good to have you back, Cross.
Crosshair: *a slight smirk on his lips* Did you miss me?
I thought of something if Echo was declared dead but was proved to be alive and was rescued could it be something similar with Tech?
The Dad Batch Christmas Edition 💝🎄
It took me a while, but I‘m still very happy with this 😊 guess whats in Hunter’s present?
Merry Christmas everyone ❤️
What do you think was the first little spat that Tech and Echo had, I have my theories but I’m curious 👀
No literally like I’m obsessed with these two
Also I personally headcannon that Crosshair did latch on to Echo really fast, but he would never admit to it. Like from day one he would totally die for Echo, but it was a long while before he would let himself say anything remotely unsarcastic to the reg because psh, he’s no softie (yes he is)
I’m definitely super obsessed with Echo and Crosshair’s relationship if you couldn’t already tell but above all I’m so interested in the ‘firsts’.
The first time they exchanged any sort of gift or the first time they shared something personal with each other. Their first hug. The first time they fought really bad and turned the ship into a war zone for a few days. The first time one of them took the other’s side in an argument. The first time they had to patch the other up after an injury and realized how scared they were to lose each other.
What did that look like? Did it take a really short time or were they tip toeing around each other for a few weeks? Did Crosshair latch onto Echo super fast like I tend to headcanon or did it take some time before he started to feel comfortable around him? Did Echo butt heads with Crosshair in the beginning? Still sometimes? How do they work through disagreements? Who was the first person Echo shared any sort of personal emotional thing with? Was it Crosshair or someone else? When was the first time he told Crosshair something like that? What was it? When was the first time they were able to joke with each other or make fun of each other? What’s their favorite way to spend time together and how did they find that out?
What’s something that only Crosshair knows about Echo and vice versa???
Just. The two of them navigating getting to know each other and finding out they have some very big things in common despite how standoffish Crosshair is and how strong willed Echo is. The two of them forming a strong bond and still being able to call each other out on shit when needed.
Just. Crosshair and Echo.
Let's be real here for a second:
The first thing he did when he got out of cryo was taking them through the cooling vents and across a foot-wide space PVC pipe a thousand feet in the air to escape.
They didn't even make it all the way to "jump without question onto a semi-wild flying animal's back" before the Batch was making plans to keep Echo for themselves.
“I’d say he’s more bark than bite, but he shoots things for a living. So.”
—Echo, about Crosshair, at some point probably
I’ve seen different headcanons about why Crosshair has silver hair, and I think most of them involve something with his advanced aging gene. I feel like Crosshair would be super sensitive about it, like to him it’s a sign that even his defects are defective, and he’s constantly worried that the aging issue will affect the rest of him and not just his hair. And I feel like maybe the others are aware of this, so one day they sneak a bunch of posters of celebrities with silver hair who people still find incredibly cool and attractive into their room and start dropping hints like “man that guy looks cool, I wish my hair would do that” and “dang I’ll be lucky if I even HAVE hair when I age” and Crosshair will never admit it, but it makes him feel like, way cool. And a lot, lot better about his hair
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
You know what just occurred to me?? When Crosshair said “clone force 99 died with Tech” it implies that, to him, his brothers continued to be CF 99 after HE left, but not after Tech was gone. He was a disposable part of their team, Tech was not. CF 99 could exist without Crosshair. It could not exist without Tech. And him returning did not revive CF 99, because Tech was still gone. So it wasn’t about numbers/size, it was about the people in the squad. Without Crosshair, it’s the same. But without Tech, it’s not. And I just—
It really is so cute and sweet how the bad batch collectively works really hard to teach Omega everything they know, even though (they don’t seem to realize) their knowledge and skill set is literally so unhinged: how to disarm literally any bomb ever, how to hack into any computer, how to steal locate valuable data, breaking and entering, extensive knowledge of every weapon in existence, stealth and reconnaissance. These super soldier brothers suddenly find themselves in a position where they are raising a child, and they don’t know much about raising children, except you’re supposed to teach them right?? So teach her they do, but they go straight from “this is dirt” to “this is how to aim an energy bow, don’t worry about stun settings lol” but in the most heartfelt and genuine way possible because for them, that is the most important thing and that is how she will survive in the galaxy when they aren’t there to protect her anymore. Like Hunter, babe, most dads are out here teaching their daughters how to ride a bike, but sure, you teach Omega the fastest way to disembowel a droid with a vibroblade, that is valuable knowledge
“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 💛
Echo’s First Moments with TBB, Part 4
*the whole room is dark and silent, Echo is fast asleep*
*all of a sudden Echo feels something touching his leg*
Echo: *bolts upright, sees Tech measuring his prosthetic legs* AHHH TECH WHAT ARE YOU DOING
Tech: *adjusts goggles* oh, Echo, I apologize for waking you. I simply had a stroke of inspiration on modifications to make to your legs and required some precise measurements.
Echo: modifications?
Tech: yes. *begins pulling blueprints out and laying them on the bed* I’ve had several ideas tonight, but I think this one is my favorite.
Echo: that’s great, Tech, but honestly I’m really happy with—wait, are those rocket boots??
