Because there isn’t nearly enough Crosshair angst for me to read, I’ve decided to write it myself.

Summary
“This is treason. If they find out about this, they’ll kill us both. Why are you doing this?”
Crosshair stared at the other man for a long moment before lifting his helmet and slipping it back on. Silently, he turned back to the ray shield and pressed the button on his vambrace to turn it off before stepping through. As the shield powered back on and he made to step away, he turned back.
“I don’t know,” he said softly.
A few months after the events of The Bad Batch, Crosshair struggles to reconcile his choice with the harsh truth of the world around him. He finds enlightenment in the most unlikely of places and realizes he may have made the wrong decision. But is it too late to do something about it?
Two years after the events of The Bad Batch, Rex reluctantly agrees to allow Hunter and his squad to help him rescue a man who's been captured by the Empire, an Imperial double agent who's cover has been blown. What Hunter thought to be a simple extraction ends up having far greater consequences for their squad than he could have ever anticipated.

Summary
Beside Echo, Rex made a harsh, choked noise. In his peripheral vision, he could see him removing his helmet in jerky, stilted movements. Echo removed his as well. He tried to clip his bucket to his belt, but his fingers felt wooden and he missed the clasp so he let it clatter to the ground. Hunter started at the sharp crack of plastoid on metal. Rex didn’t flinch, and neither did Echo.
“What?” asked Hunter, looking between the two of them. “What’s wrong?” Neither of them answered.
“Fives?” Echo rasped finally, stepping forward.
...
Having met up with Rex and Ahsoka after the fall of the Republic, the Bad Batch and Echo have just one goal: survive. Fives also has one goal - remember who he is.
Together, they have another: save the GAR, or die trying.
AKA the one where Fives gets Winter Soldiered.

Summary
A prequel story to the Bad Batch show. What happened between their appearance in Clone Wars and the first episode of The Bad Batch?
A story of how Echo changed from the broken man pulled out of the cryptochamber into the Clone Force 99 member blasting droids in the pilot episode.
A story of mourning, loss and healing. A story of trauma and recovery. A story of finding a new family and a new life. A story of bonding, of hardship and persevering. The story of a clone that came back to life.
(This is me trying to give Echo some actual screen time. Watch me try to give the boys some actual personality and relationships.)
*Updated - Chapter 13 now up!*

Summary
The Bad Batch protects their own. It’s their most sacred promise to each other, come hell or high water. When a reg named Echo joins Crosshair’s squad, Crosshair makes that promise again.
However, in the stark halls of Kamino, Crosshair discovers that Echo’s decision to join the Bad Batch is only the beginning. On Kamino, Crosshair and his brothers are helpless to watch as Echo’s augmentations thrust him into the sights of the Kaminoan scientists. The Bad Batch promised to protect Echo, but the promises of clones are fragile things.
As Echo struggles to heal in the midst of a war and the Batch’s loyalties are tested, darkness creeps ever-closer, irresistible and unrelenting. The war is nearing its end, and none of them will escape unscathed.

Summary
Echo had never had any particular talents. He'd never sought to be special, never tried to break the mould. He'd never aspired to be anything more than a clockwork soldier, watching his far more brilliant brothers rise up above him. He'd never expected to wake up one day and find out that he was, in fact, the last of them.
Funny old galaxy, really.
Now he was in the Bad Batch and one thing he was rapidly beginning to understand is this: in a galaxy filled with combat engineers, the Bad Batch are artists. Echo had never really known much about art. At least... that's what he'd always thought. New body, new squad - maybe it was time to look at things in a whole new way.
A story about art, war, coping, hanging on, letting go, restoration, reforging, plotting in a brig, military intelligence isn't, Wrecker's diplomacy doesn't, cooking, the thin line between genius and madness, starting over, struggling with loss, team bonding, art therapy, guerilla knitting therapy, big boom therapy, shaking down shinies for fun and profit, guilt, rage, forgiveness, waging war by fitting in...
... and making your peace with standing out.
