What if they reunited during the events of the bad batch……

Okay so I’ve watched the newest Bad Batch episodes now
And it is time for thoughts
Because I am NOT OKAY IN THE SLIGHTEST
Clones are questioning and deserting en masse and I am loving it. Order 66 only overrode them when it came to the Jedi, they didn’t fully lose the personality and individuality they’ve fought so hard to gain ;-;
CHUCHI FIGHTING FOR THE CLONES damn was Dave paid by the Foxiyo shippers or smth? Anyway I am living for it, I’ve had the hc that Chuchi eventually gives up on the Senate and openly full-on joins the Rebellion (earlier than people like Mon Mothma and Bail Organa did) and this fits it perfectly. Also Chuchi continuing Padmé’s fight, I love it
Chuchi got older, and while I’m not a huge fan of her current model, I do like that they updated it in more ways than just better quality. She isn’t the inexperienced senator she was in season 1 of The Clone Wars anymore
It’s heartbreaking that the clones can’t even think of pensions and retirement. They were created to fight, and most likely expected to die on the battlefield someday. They want to die on the battlefield. They have never been offered true humanity, and as such Chuchi’s proposal is almost insulting to them, feels like stripping them of their function, their reason to live, their most important trait
That assassin, what is happening there?!? Had Friendpatine groomed a secret clone task force for such things since their birth? Has he found a way to fully brainwash them with the inhibitor chip? And why was my first thought when the helmet came off that it was Slick of all people?
OF COURSE HIS CONTACT IS REX, Rex who never gives up the fight for his brothers ;-;
It pisses me off more than it should that Rex is staying with Trace and Rafa (or at the very least using their place as an outpost), and we don’t even get to see or hear from Ahsoka. She’s the one who connected them, and while I understand fully that she wouldn’t be on Coruscant anymore, at least some connection would have been nice ;-; They can’t have fully separated already, can they?
Rex has multiple clone contacts. Is one of them Cody? Is one of them Crosshair?
Fuck Rampart. Fuck him so hard. But like not in this way, not in the way that seals the clones’ fate
I love Friendpatine’s updated Emperor model
Okay you know from the beginning that something was gonna happen with Echo, but this is heartbreaking. It’s what he deserves, to stand with Rex again, fighting for their brothers, for the regs, but that doesn’t make it any less heartbreaking. I very much hope that the series will continue to show what him and Rex are up to just like we occasionally get Crosshair focus
It also deeply frightens me. In Rebels, Rex lives with Wolffe and Gregor; not Echo, who he has fought directly beside with much more than either of them. Why would he and Echo get separated again, especially after they’ve both lost so many brothers already? I’m gonna stay optimistic and say Echo went to live with the rest of the Bad Batch again, but I’m terrified
I love the sudden darkness the show has taken after the past relatively innocent episodes. The plot is moving forward again, and while I deeply fear where it is heading, I’m also living for it
Seriously though when can we see Cody and Crosshair again ;-;

Trace: Good morning. Rafa: Good morning. Phee: Good morning. Ahsoka: You all sound like robots, try spicing it up a bit. Ventress: MORNING MOTHERFUCKERS!

Someone hints they don't like Phee Genoa on the internet: "SOUND THE BANNERS! MARCH AT DAWN! PROTECT HER!"
Someone hints they don't like Trace and Rafa Martez on the internet: ::crickets::
As someone who works closely with the Latinx community in my city and is deeply involved in it as a neighbor and academic, I'm so incredibly disappointed that there is not the same amount of protection and defense for the Martez sisters. This is especially for Trace, who I think is adorable.

I think I've figured out why Phee is rubbing so many people the wrong way.
Tumblr media
Putting it the nicest way possible, there is a lot of dislike going on about the character of Phee Genoa, particularly when it comes to her flirtatiousness toward Tech. At first, I thought that it was that people didn't want for the Batchers to be romantically involved. And while that is true for many fans, who would like to see the interpersonal relationships in this show remain solely about the bonds of siblinghood, I don't think that is the main issue most people have with Phee. It's not that she's flirting with Tech. It's that she's not good enough.
It started the moment we met her. As fans who love these guys for what they've been through, seeing Phee immediately waltz into the first episode treating them with disrespect was an instant point against her. She didn't greet them in a friendly way. Aside from her approval of Tech, she started off by insulting their appearance, luckily leaving out her opinion of Echo or things would be even worse for her in the eyes of fans right now. But even with her approval of "brown eyes", Tech is not immune to her rudeness. Referring to him as "clone obvious" in the most recent episode shows that she has little respect for him either.
It feels a lot like the reaction fans had to Rafa Martez last season. She was incredibly rude to Hunter, referring to him as "clone" and berating him at every opportunity. Her treatment of Hunter and her disrespectful attitude toward clones in general made her very unpopular. It wasn't until the end of the episode when Rafa's demeanor softened and she began to show the Batch respect that fans lowered their metaphorical pitchforks.
But Phee hasn't shown us that--yet. She has yet to say thank you or admit that the Batch is anything more than Cid's hired clone gofers. It really doesn't matter if her purpose on the show is romantic, motherly, platonic, or whatever. Until she shows a little more humility and gives the Batch the respect we want for them, the pitchforks will remain at the ready.

Louk's Bad Batch rewatch part 10 omg and 10 days until s3 👀
Lets go batchers 🤟
The Bad Batch 1x06
I love reading the aurebesh signs hehe
Omega nearly takes out a stranger and literally goes "teehee oopsie" I love her sm
Echo teaching her how to shoot 🥺
HIS HAND ON HER SHOULDER 😭
Wrecker: "not exactly a natural is she" Hunter: *vague nod/shrug thing* 💀
I'd love to shoo cid out of the bar "scram" @ cid
Tech is playing arcade games !!!! 👀
"I assume you know what a tactical droid is" *3 voted yes, Omega voted no, Tech panicked*
I used to think cid telling the batch they work for her was a kinda funny scene but rewatching it now knowing what I know it just infuriates me 😡
"weak noodle arms" SHES JUST A BABY
"this old trick?" hehe like the one Han did in ESB 👀
"that's your plan? fly there, land, hope they don't spot us and walk in the door?" ~ Obi-Wan about Anakin's plan - me pretending Echo learned this from Anakin 🥺
poor Wrecker with heights, he's so brave fr I'm very proud 💕
"nighty night" 🤣
everyone is probably gonna hate me for saying this buuuuttt... I kinda wanna see more Martez sisters after this episode lol
Rafa: "grab a weapon" Omega: "I had one 😑"
y'all the banter between Hunter and Rafa 👀 the way he walks behind her with both blasters out
THE FLIP AND ROLL OMEGA DOES TO GRAB THE DROID HEAD !!!
"thanks" hehehe she's so cheeky
sibling banter
YOU'VE GOT THIS WRECKER 👑
Wrecker hits his head count: 7 👀
and he just got shot in the same place on his shoulder for the third time 🙃
"Good soldiers-" screaming sobbing exploding into another dimension
HELP HER TRACE
Omega screaming for Hunter 😭
plus Hunter's "hang on Omega!" *checking myself into therapy*
Hunter literally swinging in to save Omega like he's tarzan 👑
that "thank you" was SO sincere I'm going to go cry my eyes out forever
Trace grabbed Omega to pull her behind her 🥺
Rafa: "I still don't like you" Hunter: "I'm used to it" 🥲😂
okay but Wrecker fighting the chip, hearing Tech calling for him sounding so concerned, then Crosshair desperately saying "good soldiers follow orders" is incredibly painful to hear... but it's like he's hearing his brothers both desperately calling him to them, Crosshair's voice is like the chip trying to activate, he's frustrated and confused which is probably exactly how Wrecker feels right now, and Tech's voice is trying to bring Wrecker back away from the chip 🥲 like they're both tugging at his brain to go different directions or smth idk I'm emotional about them always
"is there an echo in here?" "Yes, I'm Echo" *salutes* he's just so silly and goofy and I know the domino squad is absolutely cackling rn 😂
Tech's little swirly flip of the datastick like Hunter does with his knife makes me think Tech can also use Hunter's knife and that is something I would love to see pls
Trace has her arm around Omega again! 🤲
Tech is so sneaky hehe
Omega: "it's all about tuning out distractions" SEE CID SHE TOOK ECHOS ADVICE AND NOW SHE'S FINE pfft "weak noodle arms" NO MA'AM
R7 💕💕💕
Omega is so excited about being in a seedy area lmaooo
Omega and Rafa waving at each other as they leave 🥺
Hunter talking about the right reasons I am feeling emotions again

Preparing for Tantiss
Summary: While the Bad Batch acquire the coordinates to Tantiss, Rex prepares a ragtag team of familiar faces to follow him to the Imperial base.
Word count: 1.3K
Warnings: A hint of Rexiyo; a smidge, a sampling, an infinitesimal iota, if you will 😊
Notes: I’ve been saying for awhile that the "cavalry" in The Bad Batch finale might not just be clones, but it occurred to me only today to write it tf down, the last two episodes be damned lol This takes place during season 3 episode 13 of The Bad Batch, "Into the Breach." Look to the tags for the “familiar faces” - the cast is too long to list here. I wrote this in a rush, but it builds off some ideas I'm using for a series about Riyo Chuchi and the Clone Underground, specifically using Orto Plutonia as a base and the working relationship between Rex and Riyo.
“Careful with those proton torpedoes!”
“Don’t scratch my ship! I don’t care how well the Republic—"
“Father! Can I show Jek ze fighters?”
The small airbase on Orto Plutonia had proven more useful than Rex could have imagined. Clearing an area large enough to host more than half a dozen starships was a challenge, but the clones and the Talz braved extreme snowstorms in record time. Fortune seemed to smile on them today as the sky cleared and the wind calmed to a whisper. Ready the fleet, the breeze seemed to say. All the ships had spilled out of the hangar and into the open air, everyone enjoying the rare bout of good weather. Rex watches the fruits of his quick and dangerous labor from the edge of the field.
“Transmission from Pantora, sir.” A clone hands Rex a holoprojector, and Riyo Chuchi flickers in his palm.
“How are preparations coming along, captain?” Riyo learned to dispense with pleasantries when it came to Rex and his missions.
“Very well, senator.” Rex learned to keep his reports short when it came to Riyo and her transmissions. “It’s a tight fit with all the aircraft, but we’ll be ready in half a rotation. Hopefully by then, Echo will have transmitted the coordinates.”
Riyo nods, but can’t hide her concern. “Be careful, Rex. I can hold off the Senate for awhile, but not long. If Tantiss is as secretive and well-guarded as you say, people will want to know everything if something,” she searches for the right word, “explosive happens.”
“Understood.” Rex nods. “You be careful yourself.” It’s an earnest warning, but he looks around and finds no one within earshot. He smirks and tries his luck. “Try not to attract any more bombs while I’m busy.”
She huffs, looks around, and counters, “Try not to blow up any more bases.”
Rex returns her smile. She nods, and in an instant, she’s gone. Rex tucks the holoprojector in his belt.
“Uncle Rex!” Shaeeh calls and tugs at his arm. Rex’s heart thumps hard in his chest, taken off-guard by the surprise attack. “Can I come?”
Suu tiptoes from behind and grabs her daughter by the waist and off the ground. “Ay, no, we need someone to watch ze base while we are gone.” She nuzzles Shaeeh on the cheek before putting the child down.
“They’re ready for inspection,” Howzer announces, gesturing towards the noisy airfield. The captains fall into step.
First up are two Y wings parked across from each other. Cham Syndulla climbs down from the cockpit of one while Cut Lawquane stands up from the wheels of the other. Their kids play in the space between.
“Ready and operational, Rex,” Cut reports, wiping his hands with an oil-ridden rag.
“As iz ours,” Cham adds. “Eleni iz ‘aving some trouble with ze turret, but—”
“All fixed!” The men look up in time to see a wrench fly in the air and land with a loud clink on the ground. Eleni appears from the turret, smiling and wiping her forehead. Hera laughs as Chopper rolls loudly, arms flailing, to pick up the wrench.
“Good work.” Rex nods at the men before moving on.
Several meters away is a Nebula-class freighter. An astromech speeds from under its chassis towards Rex, stopping too late and bumping into his shins. He grunts in pain but otherwise ignores the collision. He rubs the droid’s dome.
“Hey, R7. Where’s Rafa?”
“You can’t bank at that speed, Trace!” Rafa’s voice turns the captains’ attention to the left. “The motivators will—”
“You watch! The Silver Angel can handle anything I throw at her.” Trace sees the captains watching her and her sister argue for the umpteenth time. “Oh, hey, captains.” She gives a short salute.
Howzer crosses his arms and shakes his head, but Rex is amused. It reminds him of the first time they met, right after Padmé’s--
“Whoa, Wookiee alert!” Rafa stops Rex’s train of thought. He turns to see three adult Wookiees approach from the right.
Howzer still can’t contain his shock at their ship. “How did they get their hands on a gunship?”
Rex sometimes forgets Howzer had been stationed far from most of the action of the Clone Wars. “General Tarfful fought in the Battle of Kashyyyk,” he gestures towards the heavily-armored Wookiee, “with Master Yoda. And lucky for us, he’s no friend of the Empire.”
A protocol droid ambles from behind the Wookiee general and ahead to the clone captains. “Hello, I am C3-LT, protocol droid for General Tarfful.”
Rex nods. “Please thank the general for his help. We’re well aware of the trouble on Kashyyyk and know that the Wookiees can’t spare much in the way of arms and soldiers.”
The droid turns to the Wookiee retinue and belts out a mountain of Shyriiwook. Tarfful answers in turn, and the droid translates.
“The general says that he is happy to help the clones liberate their people. He says the clones are brave warriors who will always have the Wookiees’ help whenever they ask.”
Howzer continues to be surprised, his eyes wide at the show of loyalty. Rex nods, and Tarfful drops a heavy hand on his shoulder, shaking the captain and roaring in what the clone assumes is a battle cry. The Wookiees turn around and return to their ship.
Rex starts towards the clones’ fighters at the far end of the field when a freighter lands just outside the perimeter. Everyone stops to watch. The snow settles before the ship’s pilot descends from its platform.
“Afternoon, boys,” Phee greets the approaching clones. She stops at the end of the ramp when she sees blasters aimed in her direction. “Hey now, is that any way to welcome Tech’s—”
Rex sighs and lowers a clone’s blaster with his hand, signaling everyone to stand down. “Easy, men. Echo comm’d us about this.”
Phee walks up to Rex. “Name’s Genoa. Phee Genoa.” They shake hands cautiously. “You must be the one in charge.”
“The name’s Rex. Howzer here will catch you up.” He peers behind her and up into her ship. “Where are the cadets?”
Phee smiles and calls out, “It’s alright, boys. Time to play.”
Three clone cadets appear from the belly of Phee’s ship, running in a line down the platform and stopping in a line next to Phee. “Reporting for duty, sir,” one of them announces before saluting.
Rex kneels down on one knee and addresses the boys. “Alright, troopers.” The cadets snap to attention. “Can I count on you to make sure each ship is supplied with its maximum amount of fuel before sunset?”
“Sir, yes, sir!” They chant and salute in unison before running towards the hangar.
Phee chuckles as Rex stands back up. “Is that what you did when you were a cadet? Fill up fuel tanks and clean starships?”
Rex smirks but holds off on telling her stories of caustic chemicals and hazing rituals on Kamino. Instead, he offers, “You’d be surprised what a clone cadet can do at that age.”
Phee puts a hand on his arm and presses, “Are you sure this will work?” Her concern is genuine.
Rex seems to consider her question seriously for a moment before he shrugs. “It has to.” He gestures for her to follow Howzer.
Rex turns around and gazes into the distance. The sun is beginning to hide behind a line of mountain peaks to the west. The air starts to chill. Gregor will have dinner ready soon, and Rex knows that for some, it will be their last meal. But when he turns back to the airfield, all he can see and hear are smiles and laughter, determined faces turning into friendly ones and idle conversations turning into detailed ones. Rex smiles. For now, hope is still on the horizon.

What If Ahsoka should Met Clone Force 99 realize that Rex, Rafa and Trace Martez Met them on Coreilla? They should too take care of Ezra and they move on Naboo and Ahsoka should help Anakin to protect Ezra from Thrawn and Maul

There are Star Wars fans out there who are genuinely angry about the prospect of Rex x Rafa in TBB Szn 2???
I feel like I stepped into an alternate timeline. We must have watched two different shows.
On one hand, I watched a show rife with ableism, sinophobia, latinophobia, antisemitism, and racism where Rex appeared for all but 20 minutes of the show, two seconds of which was on a short call with Rafa Martez. On the other hand, you watched a show that you not only found compelling, but that you also believe led credibility to the prospect of Rex x Rafa. And now you're angry that Szn 2 might canonize this ship you fervently hate.

Tech: If I fall… Phee: I’ll be there to catch you. Hunter: *looks at Rafa* What if I fall? Rafa: Then I’ll fall with you, never leaving your side. Crosshair: *watches these two interactions* Crosshair, to Ventress: And if I fall? Ventress: I’ll be the one who pushed you.

Ahsoka and Rex’s last conversation before she went into hiding.
Rex: What do you mean you’re tired of fighting? Look at what just happened!
Ahsoka: … Rex. I can’t keep doing this. I am a threat to anyone that I decide to be around.
Rex: So that’s it? You’re giving up!? I’m going to need help with this, Ahsoka. I can’t save our brothers alone!
Ahsoka: I’ve got a target on my head, Rex! I can’t help you with this, but I know a few people that can.
Rex: …Who?
Ahsoka: I dated this girl in the lower levels of Coruscant, she and her sister, Rafa….
Rex: Wait!? You’re gay?
Ahsoka: This is hardly relevant right now….
Rex: Like hell it isn’t! If I ever see General Skywalker again, he owes me fifty credits!
Ahsoka: What?
Rex: You’re right… It’s not relevant. Never mind, go on…
Ahsoka: You should be able to find them on level 13:13. Trace has a mech bay and her own ship. She’s pretty handy, so she should be able to repair poor R7. Her sister is a little… rough around the edges, but they are no fans of what the Republic has become and should be willing to assist you.
Rex: Her name is Trace? Cute.
Ahsoka: *blushes* She is. Take care of them and keep them out of trouble for me, Rex.
Rex: Understood, sir. Anyone else?
Ahsoka: …I saw Bail Organa at… Padme’s funeral…
Rex: The senator from Alderaan?
Ahsoka: Yes. He… may be organizing something. He urged me to fight, but I can’t put anyone else in danger. I’ve already lost… too many…
Rex: Hey, we both have, sis. At least we still have each other right?
Ahsoka: Thanks, Rex. I think it best for me to lay low for a while out on one of the outer rim planets… Try and live a quiet life… under the radar.
Rex: I’ll miss you, Commander. If you ever need anything…
Ahsoka: I’ll miss you too, Captain. Take care of yourself.
