THE BAD BATCH: Hobbies/Interests
Type: General Headcannons Characters: Hunter, Tech, Wrecker, Crosshair, Echo, Omega
Hunter is a GOD at board & card games. You would think Tech would be able to beat him but being a Sergeant as well as the leader of Clone Force 99, no one beats Hunter when it comes to strategic games.
There are countless tic tac toe games etched into the wall of their old barracks on Kamino, all on Hunter’s account against his brothers.
He will get grumpy when someone hits him with the “draw 4” card in Uno, though.
He’s also really good at both dart-throwing and pinfinger/the knife game. It’s pretty much a miracle neither he nor Crosshair have lost a finger at this point with how often they’d challenge each other.
Tech is a surprisingly good artist. Thanks to his talent to work with fine things and creative mind, he tends to catch himself doodling every once in a while, despite not thinking much of it. To him, it's rather a waste of time and not really something he pays attention to, but he still is incredibly talented. Omega always subtly gathers his drawings when she has the chance to before he throws them away. Had Clone Force 99 had a Jedi General, you'd be 100% sure they would've asked him to paint on the Marauder.
Aside from drawing, he’s also really good at sewing! Tech’s lost track on how many times he’s had to sew up holes in his brothers’ - mostly Wrecker’s and Omega’s - civvie clothes and blacks.
We all know that Echo has pretty much taken over the mom role in the group, but did you also know that he’s a wonderful cook?
Echo is very wary when it comes to what he eats, whether that’s just war PTSD or because he’s scared about his machinery, he prefers to take care of the food part himself than risk eating something bad. On Kamino as well as during his time with the 501st, he was usually teased by Fives for always adding countless spices to their other wise bland meals but once he tried it too, they both realised Echo had a definite talent for that.
Ironically to his size and destructive personality, Wrecker actually really likes plants. He doesn't necessarily have a green thumb yet he really likes the sheer variety of them and is also incredibly fascinated by flowers. How can something so pretty be so delicate? Wrecker will ask Tech questions about each and everyone that catches his attention.
Omega got him a small cactus once that he keeps with Lula. He called it Bob, don't ask me why though.
Crosshair really likes carving. In their old barracks, he was usually the one to carve the mission numbers into the walls and would get grumpy when Wrecker got to it first. Due to his work, he doesn't really get the chance to carve a lot despite it being a form of relaxation to him.
Hunter keeps all of Crosshair's carvings hidden in the Marauder. Despite their different views and paths in life, he would never be able to get rid of them and as soon as someone suggests getting rid of them, Hunter will snap.
Omega collects EVERYTHING. She's spent all of her life rotting away on Kamino with no knowledge on the secrets of the galaxy, so once she got out, she started collection little treasures wherever she went. The Bad Batch has gotten used to it at this point and made a deal with her that every planet they visit, Omega is allowed to get one thing for her galactic collection!
