Y'all I Am So Sorry I Have Been So Not Here. Ever Since I Posted That Post After The Last The Bad Batch

Love, love, love this so far

Sorry, Wrong Comms! : Hunter x Medic!Reader [Chapter 6]

Warnings and Information: Intended audience is 13+ (18 if you squint). Tech’s never beating the space!Tablet Kid allegations for this chapter lmao. A couple of lines here and there get suggestive: CF99’S favorite medic friend is deep in thought about the shortest man of all the Batchers today. ;) Should know the drill on my usage of italics, Mando'a and headcanons by now for the series. Passing reference to a little Twi'lek kid being injured in an upsetting/unsettling way (accidental burns from a fusion cutter), but he’s okay! We cry like men in this house because we’ve learned (slightly) better coping mechanisms almost a year after Order 66 in this AU!! Mentions of medical stitches, prescription medication and paraphernalia. Some fluff. Some angst. Mutual pining if you squint. Mostly Star Wars but also real-world swearing. Occasionally jumping character-focus. Observed mentions (by Tech) of Hunter’s avoidant behaviors near the end of the chapter with Tech lying to Medic!Reader so he doesn’t ruin Hunter’s plan.

Tech was hurrying out the door and down the short stoop as [____] approached, head buried in his datapad like a distracted kid. “Good morning, Tech! Where are you off to in such a hurry?” she tried, amused to see him already so busy with something. Most of the long-term residents of this spaceport would still be sleeping, but here Tech was, already looking like he’d been awake for hours. Well, with exception of Omega, getting up early was still by and large habitual for this band of brothers, she reminded herself. (A war didn’t stop just because you got a little sleepy…)

There was no stopping the bespectacled Clone, he hardly broke his stride as he stepped away from his front door but made sure to greet her over his shoulder to avoid offense. “Shipyards. Docking fee day. Have to hurry before there’s a line. Good morning, [____]." 

Heh. Catch you another time, then, she thought with a laugh. The shipyards didn’t open for another few minutes, according to her wrist device, but Tech and his love of optimization and efficiency didn’t care much for waiting in line. As she watched his retreating figure walk down the street, she could have sworn one of his arms was moving very gingerly, and his gait looked a little stiff. Weird night of sleep and woke up in some uncomfortable position, perhaps? Wouldn’t be the first time, given he’s been reported to sleep in the pilot’s seat of the Marauder when her friends were off traveling, much to the worry of his family. Or maybe he fell asleep at his desk again, tinkering with another project. 

Perhaps, and stars she hoped not, there’d been some concerns with Hunter last night. Wonder how Hunter slept… How was he? Was he awake now, and would she have time to bid him good morning, see for herself that the man she dreamed about last night was, hopefully, okay? 

Mercifully, her dream was not of what had transpired only yesterday. Instead she’d dreamed about that night she must have fallen asleep on the couch rather suddenly when Hunter had taken care of her injuries, and kindly offered to knead knotted muscle and tissue for her in further apologies for rudely rousing her from sleep. Had she and Hunter not been startled awake because of Omega, perhaps [____] would have been able to first apologize for dozing off on him, quite literally, but also thank Hunter for being a good sport about it. If she knew then what was made a little more evident to her just yesterday, she was nearly positive that that night probably brought up a lot of strong feelings for him. Feelings, and certain actions, Wrecker had told her their family’s marksman had made innuendo of.

Hunter hanging from that grappling hook gave me a visceral reaction

I don't know which is worse, echo having an unknown fate with rex or the bad batch losing a solid 40 percent of their impulse control.

TBB EPISODE 4 SPOILER (ISH)

Us Hunter simps are being starved, but Tech ate up this episode and he was hot doing it. My little clone loving heart is sappy. I really need my hunter though

I mean not really a spoiler, but after that Episode, I am going to throw up. I now hate everyone and everything.

My birthday is this month! Could I request Crosshair doing something special for female reader on her birthday?

“Alright, open your eyes.”

All week Crosshair had been planning this surprise and all week you have been none the wiser. Of course you may have hinted that your birthday was coming up but you didn’t necessarily expect anything from him. Money was tight and the boys had been exceptionally busy so when he came ‘home’ to surprise you, you didn’t expect another array of surprises.

He had practically kidnapped you, scooping you off your feet after he dropped off your gifts, hailing down a galactic cab to reach your first destination which was a lovely restaurant. The food was delicious and it was more enjoyable for you to see him eating food that wasn’t a shared ration bar and gunk from the Kaminoan Cantina.

After that, he took you to a bar where a few drinks were on the cards and it just so happened your favorite local band was playing! Although a little embarrassing that the singer dedicated a song to you after learning it was your birthday which left you red in the face. Crosshair could not stop smirking.

You were thanking him for the lovely night, ready to go home but he takes your hand and shakes his head. “Night’s just getting started.”

He tells you to keep your eyes closed as you walk through the small town and you’re trying to picture the route in your mind but nothing is coming up.

Once your eyes open, the biggest grin plants on your face to see the Marauder perched on a hillside with some familiar faces standing in front holding a large banner.

“The banner was the kids idea.” Crosshair grumbled as he stared at the bright and glittered exploded birthday banner, seeing his brothers and sister waving over to you.

“I can’t believe this!” You say with a laugh, waving back before looking up at him. “You told me they went back to Kamino.”

“What? And have them miss your birthday, baby girl? I don’t think so.” He says with a coy smile, wrapping his arm around your shoulder as he escorts you over to the others who gave you a mix of hugs and pat on the back for your special day.

The night ahead lead to many fun games, some drinking when Omega finally dozed off to sleep, and surprisingly to you; dancing.

Crosshair of course wanted nothing to do with most games and dancing but gladly watched his brothers (mainly Wrecker) dance about which was just him jumping up and down and throwing you about. One by one, the others had called it a night which just left you and Crosshair to sit by the makeshift campfire, cuddled up under a shared blanket.

“Had a good day?” He asks, moving soft circles along your back with his dexterous fingers.

“Perfect,” you sigh happily, resting your head against his shoulders “didn’t know you could pull all this off.”

He scoffs a little and shrugs nonchalantly, feeling a little modest. “Yeah I can’t take all the credit but the others helped me with ideas a lot… but I will take credit for this.” He says with a cool tone, leaning down and capturing your soft lips with his own.

You melt into him, unsure if it was the heat of the bonfire or the scorching of his lips that were making you turn to a puddle in his grasp. When he pulled back, the look in his eyes was nothing short of adoring.

Never had he thought he would have this connection with someone. Never would he think he would do all this for someone who he loved or someone who loved him. “Happy birthday mesh’la.”

You thank him with another soft kiss and enjoyed this rare moment with the Marksman, engulfed in warmth, happiness and pure love.

You had just returned a few minutes ago, Tech had told you that Rex was busy with Amy and you were about to follow Crosshair to the playground when you saw the shuttle coming. With a critical frown, you watched it land. You glanced over your shoulder where Wrecker was standing, looking just as critically.

"Are we expecting visitors?" he asked.

"Not that I know of," grumbled Hunter, who came up behind him on the ramp.

Hunter murmured to Wrecker, "Go get your gear, we might get in trouble."

Nervously, you looked around and discovered that Rex was coming your way, but Amy was not with him. At first, you wanted to panic, automatically, but then you remembered that Crosshair had gone to check on them. He was probably with Amy, so she was safe and protected.

Your heart still beat in your throat as Hunter hurriedly waved you into the shuttle.

"Go tell Tech," he grumbled, stopping on the ramp.

With a nod, you hurried past him to comply with his request. You found Tech in the engine room, of course, along with Echo. The two of them looked at you and both frowned. It was obvious to them that something was wrong.

"We have an uninvited visitor."

Tech tossed the tool aside and immediately asked, "Where's Amy?"

" With Crosshair" Rex said coming up behind you, "The two of them are hiding out until the coast is clear."

Tech nodded, tense yet relieved. He reached for your hand and squeezed it gently.

"You stay in here," he said seriously to you.

"But-"

"No discussions, you wait here in the engine room," he said urgently, "I want you to be safe."

You sighed, much preferring to help, to keep an eye on Tech. You didn't want to wait here in the dark. Tech was rarely stern or stubborn, but you could tell he would not tolerate any dissent here and now.

Reluctantly, you said, "Okay. I'll wait here."

Tech gave you a kiss and said, "I'll come get you when the coast is clear."

Crosshair had climbed the nearby hill with Amy, there he now lay in wait with his rifle, watching the shuttle and the people getting out of it, when he got distracted.

"Uncle Cross, I have to pee."

He frowned, turned his head and looked at the little girl.

"Do you need my help to do that?"

"No, just wanted to let you know"

Crosshair nods in relief.

"Good."

Amy wobbled off, and Crosshair watched her go.

"Don't go too far away, stay within earshot, Amy"

Amy stopped and said, "Mommy says to make sure no one ever watches me pee, especially grown men"

Crosshair raised his eyebrows, but finally nodded.

"Your mama is right, but I'm not a stranger and right now we're in a tense situation. I need to keep an eye on you. I'm definitely not looking, but talk to me while you pee, so I'm sure you're around."

Amy shrugged her shoulders and said, "Alright."

Shortly after, she begins to babble happily to herself as well as Crosshair. She tells about her stuffed animal and how she fell down in the Marauder and got a lollipop from Tech for being so brave. Crosshair listens with amusement, mutters something confirming occasionally and watches again what's happening down at the shuttle.

Meanwhile, Amy goes into an explanatory mode, much like her father, telling Crosshair all the details, down to the smallest thing, of what her stuffed animal is made of, how it was made, and why her stuffed animal is friends with Lula.

"Very interesting, little bean," murmurs Crosshair, who is only half listening as he is focused on the scene in the valley.

Finally, Amy comes back and lies down next to him on the forest floor, a stick in her small hands. She mimics his pose and posture, pretending the stick is a rifle.

With conviction, she says, "I'm going to be a sniper, too."

Crosshair looks over at her from his scope, only now seeing that she is mimicking him. Warmth spreads through his chest, a very strange feeling. He smiles warmly. Amy looks cute lying there in wait with her stick as a substitute for a rifle. Amy admires her uncle so much that she wants to be like him.

Amused, he says, "Your mother and father won't be too thrilled about this".

Amy looks at him questioningly.

"Why?"

Crosshair looks through his scope again and says, "We'll talk about that later, shorty, okay? Your uncle needs to focus a bit right now, we want to have your mom and dad's back after all".

Amy nods resolutely and also gets back into pose. But then she asks, “Would you like it if I get to be a sniper?”

He blinks, thinks for a short moment.

"I would be proud of you and very honored that you would want to be like me. But maybe you will change your mind again when you are older".

Amy shakes her head with conviction.

"I definitely want to be a sniper."

Crosshair chuckles, "Don't worry, as soon as you are old enough, I will be happy to teach you".

"When will I be old enough? I'll be three soon"

Crosshair blinks and says quietly, "Three... hard to believe. Sometimes I forget how young you are, you talk as much as your father did at that age"

"That's not an answer"

Crosshair laughs softly, "You're as smart as him too", after a pause he adds, "In a few years if your parents allow it"

Amy sighs, "Years are long"

He says softly, "Years are a lot shorter than you think, and they eventually go by faster than you'd like"

" When I am a sniper, then I can go with you when you go on missions! I'll work with you and Daddy!"

Crosshair sighs softly and says, "We'll see. One thing at a time."

"I don't want to wait!" complains Amy.

"No patience," Crosshair mutters, "You definitely get that from your mother. Now hush and focus"

Finally, Crosshair can see the uninvited visitors. He recognizes one of them.

He growls, "You've got to be kidding me."
