Pt. 5. TBB Headcannons they probably deserve.
…and I fell into the black abyss between doing things. I’m stuck. Help. T_T
(I’ll be fine, don’t worry.)
Anywayday, today’s fine boi(tm) is our poor traumatized sad boy Echo. No one can disrespect Echo. Poor baby has been through too much. He just needs a soft jumper, a warm hug, and some hot choccy, okay?
But! To business!
Echo is the Mum(tm) Figure. (Yes Mum, I’m an Aussie. I can and will fight God and America. Watch me.) He’s the 2IC of decisions after Hunter. Sometimes even before. Particularly decisions concerning Omega. It’s unspoken agreement in the Batch to run things past Echo if Hunter has no immediate answer. Hunter agrees.
His robot limbs can lock up. Simply stop working. So Echo keeps them in almost better condition than he keeps himself.
Drinks one of two (2) things in the morning. Black caf or hot chocolate with extra marshmallows. Each drink has a day’s set mood associated with it. Force forbid if Echo decides to drink alcohol in the morning. EVERYONE that day better watch out… or else.
Loves really soft jumpers. Soft, silky type things. Fluffy? Depends. Goes jumper shopping with Tech. Listens in silence to all the varied fabrics/fibres benefits Tech can and will list off to any and all jumpers.
Is the Emotional Support(tm) clone. Almost like the Batch’s therapist. Matters of the heart? Echo can help. Matters of the mind? Echo’s got you. Matters of the stupidity? GODDAMN has Echo got advice for you. (Warning: it’ll hurt.)
Sleeps like a mummy. (When he sleeps, poor baby.) Doesn’t move all night. Crosshair once made a comment that if Echo died, his funeral position was already determined. Echo replied that he’d like to die - just so he could haunt the living sh$t out of people. Crosshair didn’t make the comment again.
Gives the best hugs out of the whole Batch. Knows when people need hugs too. Probably because he needs a hug himself. Crosshair cried the first time he got an Echo hug.
Absolutely gives Omega piggyback rides. 100%.
Is Force sensitive - but realises it VERY slowly. (I think Fives was Force sensitive too btw). After the finale, he has time to cogitate on this disturbing discovery - which culminates in Force ghost Fives appearing and offering advice. Echo initially goes apesh$t, but finally gets the closure he needed surrounding Fives. (The Batch have a hard time getting used to Echo’s conversations with an invisible vod.)
Can and will fight God or Palpatine. But is too tired too. Would probably just project his crippling depression onto them and watch them wither away with satisfaction.
Often gets frustrated by being left-handed, but keeps his droid attachment on most to condition himself to being ambidextrous. (Tech did make him a hand attachment - Echo uses it occasionally.)
Is in unspoken charge of the Batch should anything happen to Hunter. And knows it.
If Hunter needs a break… Echo needs goddamn RETIREMENT. Dude has been through too much.
And he just needs closure on Fives, okay? :(
