one big step
Crosshair x gn!reader
summary: Plagued from horrible nightmares, you make your way over to Crosshair's bedroom, looking for some comfort.
warnings: reader has nightmares in the beginning, in which crosshair dies or gets hurt in various ways, pre-relationship, some hugs and snuggles, sharing a bed
words: ~1380
a/n: hello! it's been some time since i wrote a crosshair x reader fic. even though it's a rough start, it's mainly fluff and soft!crosshair. this is also a fic for @summer-of-bad-batch, with the prompts "forget i asked.", hugs and nightmares. i hope you enjoy!
Crosshair gets shot.
Crosshair jumps off a cliff, trying to land on a smaller one below. He misses.
Crosshair gets stabbed.
Crosshair is crushed by falling containers.
Crosshair stands too close to an explosion. He blows up.
Crosshair is surprised in his gunner's nest. He doesn't make it.
Crosshair's other hand gets cut off.
Crosshair lying on the floor, lifeless.
Crosshair gets tortured, his wailing a sound you'll never forget.
Crosshair, smeared with blood. His own blood.
Crosshair, slumped in a corner, unmoving.
Crosshair, dead.
Dead. He's dead. He's dead and he won't come back again. Not ever.
You'll be alone with all those horrors in your memories. You'll never be happy and careless again without him.
You're the one who is tortured. Who falls off the cliff. Stabbed. On fire. Dead.
Dread fills you, pain everywhere. In every fiber of your body. It hurts- it hurts so much- and you're alone. All alone.
You wake up, screaming.
It's dark, the air too hot. You're sweating and shaking at the same time. Your lungs scream for air, you're breathless.
Where are- Where are you? It's dark. Too dark, you can't see a thing.
Outside there's some noise, it sounds like a broke radio: all you hear is an unsettling kshhh that comes in waves, but it's not as aggressive as you remember it.
It's hot. So hot, that your hair stick to your face and your bed feels disgustingly wet.
Suddenly, there's a scream.
No, not a scream - a bird. A bird that twitters this weird melody. You know that melody from... from... home.
It's your neighbor's bird. At this unholy hour.
You swallow, start to reach around.
Wood, something soft, and then metal. You tap the metal, and it gets brighter in your room.
Your room. With the yellow walls, the wooden furniture and the many photos and paintings on the wall.
You're at home.
At home.
You take another shaking breath.
It was just - just a nightmare.
But you're still unsettled.
Crosshair- he was dead, killed in too many different situations.
You swallow, your throat feels dry, and you reach for your glass of water on the nightstand.
You empty the glass.
It calms you down a bit.
But you're still shaking, so badly.
You know it was just some stupid nightmare, but - but you just couldn't calm down completely.
Is he fine?
Yeah, of course he is. He's just two rooms over, probably sleeping like a baby. Without any nightmares.
But, what if not?
Before you think twice about it, you're up and sneaking through the dark halls and only stop in front of his room.
Quietly, you knock and after getting a sleepy "what", you open the door quietly.
It creaks, and makes you jump.
"Sorry- I- I just- are you okay?" you ask him.
His room isn't as dark as yours - his curtains are open and a silver ray of moonshine lights up the small room.
He looks at you from his bed, buried beneath his blanket.
"Yeah, of course I'm okay. It's in the middle of the night, what did you expect?" he asks, not amused by you waking him up. You know how much he appreciates his sleep and at the same time he's just right - of course he's okay. It's in the middle of the night.
"Oh- I- s-sorry," you stammer and try to walk out backwards again, your eyes on his.
He looks at you contemplating, sitting up after a second.
"Hey, are you okay?" he asks after a few seconds. Your hands were still shaking, and you are still just about to cry.
"Yeah- yeah I just- I had a nightmare, and you died and- I was alone and- Just wanted to make sure you're still here and okay," you stumble over your words, and you see how Crosshairs face softens.
"Yeah I'm fine. I- are you?" he says, and you could hear worry in his tone.
You swallow and try to say yes, but nothing comes out of your mouth. You're still scared shitless, and agitated. Nothing was fine.
Crosshair seems to notice as much.
"Do you want to talk? Come here, you can... Do you want to sleep here?" He then proposes and your breath hitches.
You know you like him a lot. Like a lot a lot. And sometimes you feel like he likes you too. In the same way, you like him. But then again - none of you never took it a step further. You are just friends that could be with each other a lot. It felt like the two of you were too shy to do anything about it. But this time, it feels like he just made such a big step at once. And you are ready to take him by the hand and walk that step with him.
Of course, he still could just mean it in a friendly way - but he didn't need to ask you if you wanted to stay the night.
He could just have asked you to talk to him and then send you off again.
But sleeping in his bed feels... intimate. It is special. And it definitely isn't something you'd do with just a friend. Not in Crosshair's world, at least. And not in yours, either.
You know that. And he knows it, too.
With a head full of thoughts, you almost forget to answer. Only when Crosshair's voice sounds across the room again, you remember that he indeed asked you to talk with him, and to be with him tonight.
But Crosshair's words are not what you expect: "Forget I asked," he says after a few minutes of just silence.
You swallow. "No- I- you'd want that? I- of course I want to," you whisper and take a step closer.
Crosshair just looks at you.
"If your offer still stands..." you add.
Crosshair takes a few moments, in which you fear he already changed his mind and instead of getting a step forward, you just took three steps back, but then he nods a single time.
You come closer and carefully sit next to him.
He lifts his blanket and lets you slip under, close to him.
You feel his warmth, his body. His chest raises with every breath he takes, and suddenly you're just so close.
"You just... died. So many times," you whisper and start to tell him about your disturbing nightmare. You feel how tears well up in your eyes again, but you pull yourself together and stop yourself from crying. He's fine.
Crosshair listens, and nods. When you finish, he's quiet for a few seconds.
"I- don't know what-" he begins to say, hesitating. Then he sighs quietly.
"I'm not the best at comforting others," he admits quietly. "But... Wrecker really appreciates hugs," he then says. You see some insecurity in his eyes, and you soon realize it's because he doesn't want to hurt you or say the wrong things. So instead, he just asks: "Do you want a hug, too?"
A small smile appears on your lips.
"If you're okay with that, I'd love to," you whisper back. You're not sure if you see it right, since it's dark and his face is just lit by the moonlight, but for a second you think his face becomes a little peachy.
"Wouldn't offer if I wasn't," he says and carefully lays an arm around you.
You sigh quietly, embracing him and his warmth, and put an arm across his stomach, too.
Together, you slide down and you nestle your head on his shoulder, drawing small circles around his stomach.
Even though the night started in such a horrible way, it's easy to find an upside about it all. You and Crosshair were far away from talking about your feelings for each other, and you sure as hell have a long road in front of you. But you were pretty sure you just took a big step on this road, and you are ready to gear up and take some more.
You fall asleep just moments later.
This time, you don't have any nightmares or other disturbances, and for the first time in a long, long time you feel well rested when you wake up. Still in Crosshair's arms.

Crosshair gives Omega her pack. “Got everything you need?”
Omega groans. “Yes, I promise I got everything.”
“And you’ll check in every rotation,” Hunter reminds her.
“At thirteen hundred local time,” Omega says, flicking her fingers in a sloppy salute.
“Phee, ya sure you got enough food?” Wrecker asks.
The pirate fixes the brothers with a look. “Will you all calm down? We’ll only be gone for three days.”
“I still don’t see why we can’t come,” Crosshair grumbles.

Thursday Check in
I have a couple questions for you @npfannen
What goes on the title page? What information is included on it?
You mentioned in my feedback that I did not discuss content strategy. I do have a whole section on content strategy. I am just a bit confused. Did I explain it wrong or not enough?
For the subheadings, I just wrote my information under each of the questions from your outline guide. Should I change them? Or does it work to help structure my analysis?

Original Content Post 3
How to Write Guide: how will your audience (content creators) influence the design of your HTWG? #writ318mu #week10
I think the shift from writing for a academic reader to content creators is that I don’t have to work off of the assumption that the information is new. If they are a content creator there is some level of understanding that we’re all on the same page as oppose to someone who may be reading an analysis without the background knowledge that I have. I’m still working through my HTWG proposal and trying to understand the assignment but I think understanding how the audience shifting to content creators is going to influence how I frame my eventual powerpoint. I might try to create it in the same way that their youtube videos are structured. A good compare in contrast to make it feel familiar.

Original Content Week 10 - Post 1
• How to Write Guide: how will your audience (content creators) influence the design of your HTWG?
My research question, which was that a content creator (YouTube in this case) interacting with their audience in the comments would positively affect their likes to view ratio. This was proved incorrect.
I didn’t anticipate making the How to Write Guide following my hypothesis being proved wrong but I think the take away is that interaction in the comment section from the content creator isn’t going to make or break the likes to views ratio for a video.
Surface level it doesn’t seem like that being a revelation but it means the content creator doesn’t need to stress over that aspect of the content strategy. It’s a take away at the very least.

Thursday discussion post 3/27
How are you using comments from me to work through Draft #2? How can I help?
For my revision, I've listed out everything that you wanted me to work on, that way once I complete it I can cross it off. I'm working on centering my focus of the project, which is to analyze content creator's content strategy. I'm also adding individual slides for each of my three graphs, as well as an analysis of each.

I do have a few questions about the 'How To Write' proposal. What do you mean by "How will you create and share the content you're creating?" I'm going to be creating my guide through google slides, and will most likely be making sample content through photo editing. I'm just unsure what to write for that question.
Another question I have is what would the "tips and tricks" be for the 'How To Write' guide? Would the "tips and tricks" be the findings of the data?

Progress Update #5: Lo-Fi Wireframes Pau!
Hey everyone! So glad you’re stopping by my Tumblr blog again! Read ↓below↓ for my project update details!
What has been happening over the past 2 weeks?
These past two weeks have been pretty busy as I worked on my other classes’ assignments. I went against the advice of our professor, who said, “Use the spring break to catch up,” but I instead opted to relax and decompress. I actually went outside this time, touched grass, and shopped at malls, unlike my previous breaks, when I would just stay cooped up in my house reading manga. I pretty much crammed some last-minute work before class today and the night before. At the very least, I finished my low-fidelity wireframes for the five microsites. In my last post, I only completed my low-fidelity wireframes for the main website, so I am happy to have done more. I think I forgot to mention that I reduced the scope of my website. Instead of ten designs, I narrowed it down to just five to make it more manageable for myself. If I also fail to deliver a fully functional website, I will fall back on a website prototype as a backup.
What is coming up for the next 2 weeks?
My next step is to complete my high-fidelity wireframes based on the low-fidelity ones. For this step, I will need to gather assets, such as images and text (copy) to use. After that, I will work on recreating the design on the actual website using Wix, hopefully by next week on the 30th. I want to launch the website as soon as possible to ensure there is ample time to gather data by collecting votes from my Instagram Stories polls, summarizing the results, and posting the summary on the site. So, that’s where I am heading over the next two weeks.
Hiccups/Hurdles/AHA moments
A hurdle I had to overcome was my perfectionist mindset. Because I want everything to be perfect, it was a struggle to begin tackling my five microsite wireframe designs. I did not know where to start, but once I began working, I had momentum. At this point, I realized I really just need to pass. Of course, I want to put out my best work, but I may need to take some shortcuts.
I had an AHA moment when I realized that I still had some time before I needed to launch my website. It is not a lot of time, but I remain hopeful. However, throughout this whole creative process, I have had serious self-doubt about completing this project. I had given up in high school for a STEM capstone project for STEM honors, where I dropped the class and forfeited the honors. It was definitely not my proudest moment, but I like to believe I have changed drastically from that time. Although I have self-doubt and imposter syndrome, I have accomplished a lot to get to where I am now. While I do not believe I was the person to actually achieve these things, I am trying to be more grateful and celebrate the small victories. By the end of this project, I hope to savor my triumph and success exuberantly with my friends and family. I am so close to the finish line. We all are. We got this, guys!
Any deliverable drafts to share?
At the top of this post, you will find screenshots of my low- and high-fidelity wireframes from Figma. I have finished my lo-fi wireframes and am beginning to work on my hi-fi ones. Click here to view my documentation for this project thus far. I have compiled my brand color palette, study guide, user personas, sitemap, and lo-fi wireframes into one Figma file to have everything in one place.
Where are you on your timeline?
I am kind of in the production phase, depending on how you look at it. I categorized wireframes under the production phase, but others may still consider them to be in the pre-production phase. Needless to say, I am quite behind, as I have assigned myself to launch my website this past Sunday. Now I know that the deadlines I set for myself are tentative and bound to change, so I won’t beat myself up over it too much. I am proud I have at least finished my lo-fi wireframes, which were substantially weighing on my mind due to feeling overwhelmed. Even so, I have reduced the scope of my project, which has lifted that immense burden off my shoulders.
That’s all for now! Thanks for tuning in ^_^

the odd one out
Hunter, no pairing
summary: Hunter has the biggest secret among them all. He spent his whole life with keeping his second form to himself, not telling anyone anything about it. But what if they still figure it out?
warnings: hunter has a "second form" of a wolf (yeah, i know it's a cliché but it fits so well xD), but nothing else really
words: ~1900
a/n: hello everyone! i heard it's halloween already? the werewolves are already here? no, i'm just kidding. :D i had the idea for this story when i found an old obsession with a book series (woodwalkers), in which people can switch their forms. then i tried to figure out how i might put this into a story, and remembered @isthereanechoinhere96 's fic hunter - sergeant, brother, dad, where she came up with the idea of how hunter got his enhaced senses, so i definitely want to credit her for this idea. theeeen i additionally figured i might add some @summer-of-bad-batch prompts ("get out of my room!", "don't avoid the question." and "just when were you planning on telling us that?") and tadaaa - here it is. i hope you enjoy!
MASTERLIST
His paws pound against the forest floor.
Even though Pabu is a tropical and warm island, this particular night is cold, and his breath comes out of his snout in small clouds.
It's been such a long time since he had the freedom to really be in his second form like that.
Pabu finally gave him this opportunity again, and since they lived here, he tried to run some miles as a wolf as often as he could.
He takes a deep breath through his wet nose, and lets his senses reach out. He's able to feel practically everything around him in this forest.
When he is human, his senses are above average, of course. It was his enhancement.
But being out like this, in his second form as a wolf, is just incredible.
He smells the juicy moss, the wet dirt on the floor. Different kinds of trees, bushes and plants.
And of course the animals.
There are some birds in a nest right above him, the mother is just about to give them some worms.
He is pretty sure there is a small rodent cave somewhere on his right, and little does the small thing inside know that there is another predator lingering just in front of the entry.
He also notices that there is someone walking around in the woods, poking around with a stick, afflicted with the smell of fresh mushrooms.
Hunter takes it as a sign to go back home. He needs to make sure that nobody sees him like this, in his wolf body.
There aren't any local wolves on the island, so it would be very suspicious when somebody would suddenly see one.
He takes a shortcut to their house.
The wolf carefully avoids anyone, and when he finally makes it to their garden, he sneaks into his room.
Not even his brothers know of his second form.
The Kaminoans insisted that he should never tell anyone anything. Not even his brothers. They drilled him, told him the other's would think he's weird, and even threatened to decommission them when he told them. To put it... nicely.
He never knew why his second form was such a big secret, but he never, never ever, told anyone about it.
It was his biggest secret.
And even now, even after the fall of the Republic and the Kaminoans, he keeps his secret.
By now, he is sure the others will think he's... a defect. Just like the regs used to call them. But in his case it was just true - who else was able to change forms in such a strange way?
And besides - he knows them since they took his first breath. It would make no sense to spit it out now, after all those years.
First, they will feel betrayed that he kept this secret, then they'll reject him and send him away. They'll tell him how strange and disgusting he is - just like the Kaminoans prophesied over and over again.
Hunter sneaks over to the patio door of his room. He purposefully chose the one with the door to the garden and let the others take the rooms upstairs - wolves just weren't good climbers. And he didn't want to change his forms in the garden.
It would be weird if one of his family members found his clothes between bushes.
He looks around, crosses the garden and walks into his room.
He shakes his fur a last time, before beginning the fast process of changing forms.
His hair disappears into his skin, his teeth and claws shrink. His ears are suddenly back to their human form, his snout is a human nose again, and his tail is gone.
He gets up, stretches his hands into the air, bends his back and looks directly in the shocked eyes of Wrecker.
"Hunter?" his little brother asks.
"Get out of my room!" Hunter yells, almost jumping out of his skin.
From one second to the other, he's panicking.
He was just philosophizing about his secret and now it's just- gone.
"No- wait- what was that?"
"Nothing! What was what? Wrecker, get out!" Hunter comes over and starts to push Wrecker out of the room.
"Stop it! I know what I saw, I just don't know what it was! Tell me!" Wrecker insists, not even moving an inch. "You were a ball of fur with those big teeth and now- now you're Hunter again!" he almost accuses him.
"I don't even have clothes on!" Hunter still tries to move Wrecker around, but he's just like a solid wall. He lays a hand onto the door frame and holds on - Hunter doesn't have the slightest chance of moving him away.
Tears of despair form in his eyes.
Was this it? He kept it from his brothers for years, just to expose himself like that? Why the hell didn't he even smell or hear Wrecker?
"Don't avoid the question, Hunter! Just put on some pants!" the brawler says. He's not letting it go.
Hunter breathes heavily. For a short moment, he feels ready to cry.
Until he looks into Wrecker's eyes.
Immediately, he sees that he's confused. Scared.
Oh maker, Wrecker was scared. Of him.
He takes another deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He doesn't want Wrecker to be scared - he needs to explain it to him, so Wrecker doesn't fear him anymore. Then he still could pack his things. They could still throw him out after explaining.
He takes some pants and puts them on, still not ready to say anything.
And if that wouldn't be enough already, Crosshair and Tech are suddenly standing behind Wrecker, alarmed by all the noise and screaming.
"What are you doing?" Crosshair asks.
Hunter looks at Wrecker, pleading, but the latter already starts talking: "Hunter has a secret! A big one even! He's a wolf!"
Crosshair and Tech look at each other, then at Hunter, then at Wrecker.
"You're crazy," Crosshair says, and Tech also just starts to walk away. "I knew this warm air isn't good for you. For the two of you, apparently," Crosshair shakes his head.
Wrecker huffs.
"No, it's true! One second ago there was this big dark wolf and in the next it starts to look like an alien, and BOOM! Then there's just Hunter," Wrecker starts to explain. Hunter shakes is head.
"Firstly, I'm not an alien! Secondly, it definitely didn't make boom!" Hunter growls and this time, Wrecker takes a step back.
"Please don't bite me," he cries out.
He's so scared, Hunter thinks. There's no way he can make amends ever again, he was sure of that.
"What? I would never-- Wrecker, what are you thinking of me?" Hunter still asks.
Wrecker swallows. "Well, there indeed was a wolf just a few seconds ago. I don't know what to think, but I'm sure I know what I saw, Hunter. Please, explain it to us."
Hunter sighs, already deflated. He doesn't exactly see a way out of this.
He takes another look at his brothers - Crosshair and Tech took a step back again - and shakes his head.
"I don't even know where to start," he says.
"So Wrecker isn't just saying things?" Tech asks.
Hunter shakes his head, "No, he's right- I- He- I didn't even know he was here."
"Why don't you start at the beginning? How did something like that happen?" Crosshair suggests.
Hunter shrugs again.
"I've been like this since I can remember. The first time I changed forms was when I was about three years old. Nala Se told me she almost decommissioned me, but she decided otherwise. I changed back after a few minutes, and because of that I was a too valuable specimen for her 'projects'," Hunter says, trying to shrug nonchalant.
He's standing in front of his brothers like a kicked dog, and they look at him like he was growing a second head.
Well, it wasn't that far off in the end, right?
"She... studied you?" Crosshair asks. Hunter nods.
"At some point, she explained that she experimented with different DNAs a lot. It obviously worked with mine. And it seemed like there was a mixture of different animal DNAs that went pretty well with mine. That's also how my senses work. I'm pretty sure there's some kind of shark in my genes, too," the oldest sibling explains. The others listen.
"Can you... turn into a shark, too?" Tech wants to know. Hunter declines: "Not that I know of, at least."
"So your senses work with the animal genes?" Tech asks another question, "How exactly does it work?"
"I'm not entirely sure myself. I just know that switching forms was more of an accident. If I'm right, not even Nala Se knows how it worked. It's just... odd," Hunter shrugs his shoulders.
Luckily, Wrecker doesn't look as scared anymore, but Crosshair just scoffs.
"Are you crazy? Why do you make up stuff like that? And you two - you just believe stuff like this?"
Hunter looks at him, not knowing what to say.
"Can't you show them? I want to see it again, too!" Wrecker says at this moment and even Tech looks interested.
Hunter rolls his eyes, but does as they want him to. The cat -or wolf- is out of the bag anyway.
"Wow!" Wrecker breathes as Hunter ends the process and shakes his pants off his furry butt again.
"This is very interesting, indeed," Tech agrees. He crouches down, rights his googles and inspects Hunter from different angles.
Crosshair looks at him with big eyes, unbelieving of what he sees.
Wrecker carefully pats Hunter's furry head, but he just shakes his body and changes forms again. Now isn't the time for pets or treats.
"Just when were you planning on telling us that?" Crosshair wants to know.
"Well... Not ever?" Hunter asks, before diving into an explanation.
"So- you tell us, the defect squad, that you never told us, even after the war, because we, the defect squad, might have thought you were weird?" Crosshair asks to clarify.
"Well, you were freaked out! You can't tell me I'm not weird!" Hunter tries to defend himself.
Wrecker just laughs and pats his back.
"I thought you were weird even before that," he laughs heartily.
Hunter is relieved. To some degree at least. Does that mean they won't abandon him?
"Could you still do me a favor and not tell Omega? I don't want to... scare her," he asks them. They look at him, uncomprehending.
"Just... give me some time, yeah?" he asks after a second. He didn't want to exclude their sister, but he felt like he wasn't ready for this step.
After his brothers agreed on that, the four of them made their way over to the living room.
Tech and Wrecker still ask many questions, and Hunter has to show his second form a few more times, let Tech inspect him and Wrecker pet him.
He doesn't actually mind: he is way too relieved about their relaxed reactions and if he is being honest, Wrecker's warm hands feel pretty nice against his fur.
It just leaves one question open: Why was Wrecker in his room, when he came back?
When he asks him, Wrecker just shrugs.
"Haven't seen you a lot lately. We've been so busy! I just thought I'd come and annoy you. Didn't turn out how I wanted it to."
It is at that moment that Hunter could hit himself with a bat: His siblings, his family, won't ever dislike him, just because he's different.
They were way too odd for that themselves.

Threat
Read here on Ao3!
Summer of Bad Batch 2024 | Week 10 | “Just when were you planning on telling us that? | Week 11 | “I didn’t think I would get this far.”
Rated: G | Words: 100
Hunter stares, slack jawed, at the thing lying on the barrack’s table. He heaves a long suffering-sigh. “Just when were you planning on telling me that you were building a battle droid?”
Tech shrugs one shoulder. “To be quite honest, I did not believe I would get this far without your noticing by mere observation.”
A hard look. “You can’t keep this.”
A gasp. “Why not? It is deactivated. It poses no threat.”
“I’ll pose a threat if it isn’t gone when I get back.”
As Hunter leaves the barracks, he hears Tech grumble on a breath, “...has no appreciation…”
