The Bad Batch - Sleep Headcanons

Hunter

the sound of his siblings sleeping soundly is like a lullaby to him

the lightest sleeper in the world thanks longnecks

unless someone is cuddling with him

partner, sibling, doesn't matter

if someone is right there he will bury his face in their shoulder or side and he will actually get some sleep

Wrecker

can and will sleep anywhere

will occasionally just nod off in the middle of a battle just because he can

everyone talks about wrecker snoring but tbh i feel like he's one of those sleepers that doesn't exactly snore, more like breathes loudly

Tech

sleep? ha what's that

its not that he can't sleep, it's that there are so many more interesting things to do with those wasted hours

sleep is an inconvenience

he will fall asleep the second one of his brothers scoops him up and wraps him in a blanket though (perfect depiction of this by @carrot-top-monk seen here with super heartbreaking ending)

Echo

he for sure mumbles in his sleep

like it's not always about his trauma but like to be fair its often about his trauma

but he'll just like perk his head up and just mumble some nonsense about tookas

sometimes it'll just be straight binary like hes literally saying zero one one zero one one one zero  zero one one zero one one one one  zero zero one zero zero zero zero zero  zero one one zero one one one zero  zero one one zero one one one one  zero zero one zero zero zero zero zero  zero one one zero one one one zero  zero one one zero one one one one

he also frequently twitches in his sleep

and that includes his scomp

he doesn't use a blanket anymore because his scomp twitched one night and the blanket got all wrapped up in it and it took Tech 20 minutes to get it back out

Crosshair

I think I've seen it somewhere else before, but this man does not sleep

Like he might nap for an hour or two

And he naps fairly frequently

Like any given point that he is idle and at least seated he's out like a kriffin light

like oh missions over and hes sitting on a crate waiting to depart? ASLEEP

on kamino for a bit, in the mess hall and the regs are being tolerable? ASLEEP

hunter's giving a briefing of their next mission? ASLEEP

The Bad Batch Head Canons - Nicknames

The Bad Batch x You

Hunter

Platonic, You: this man won’t generally refer to you with much other than your name. He may call you “verd’ika” (private/little soldier) from time to time

Platonic, Him: you call him “sergeant” or “boss”, he tells you not to. This goes on continually, but Hunter doesn’t mind

Romantic, You: he tried a couple different nicknames for you but “sarad” or “sarad’ika” (flower or little flower) is what stuck best

Romantic, Him: if you call this man “hun” he won’t know if it’s a shortened version of Hunter or Honey and honestly he couldn’t be bothered to care; he loves it so much either way. Use his formal title and he absolutely will fuck you asap

Tech

Platonic, You: if you’re only friends, Tech probably won’t have a nickname for you, though he may pick up another batcher’s nickname for you if he thinks you enjoy it

Platonic, Him: if you’re the type to throw around nicknames, he’ll likely be confused but ultimately accepting of nicknames like “bud/buddy”

Romantic, You: this man for sure calls you “darling” and will occasionally use the mando’a “cyar’ika”

Romantic, Him: you are the only person in the universe that can call him “Techie” and he will adore it. If you refer to him as your “boyfriend”/“husband” or as “my man” he will melt immediately. If you call him “lover” he will go absolutely feral for for you

Wrecker

Platonic, You: if you are smaller than Wrecker, he will point it out. He’ll usually call you “little one”, even if you’re not that much smaller than him or a version of your name that’s shortened

Platonic, Him: as a counter to his, you call him “Big Guy” or something similar. It’s definitely giving Pike & Grog vibes

Romantic, You: when he gets feelings for you, he starts to use your actual name more often. He likes the sound of it.

Romantic, Him: you call him “babe” or “baby” and he will fall for you all over again, use his actual name or shorten it to Wreck he will be trying to get into your pants

Echo

Platonic, You: to be completely honest, I think Echo would just call you by your first name, or title if you outrank him

Platonic, Him: Echo already has a short name so he’ll definitely be confused if you start calling him “Eck” but he really likes it when you call him “hun”

Romantic, You: he definitely calls you “dear” in public situations and “sir/ma’am” in private ones

Romantic, Him: this man will respond to just about anything. Like those videos of dogs who will respond to the tone of their owner saying sit instead of the actual word, if you called him “newspaper” his attention would be on you.

Crosshair

Platonic, You: you cannot tell me this man doesn’t call you “babydoll” or “kitten”. That’s not my headcanon, I’m taking it as fact.

Platonic, Him: you like to call him “Crossy” to tick him off. It usually works. If you really want to get under his skin, call him “Hairy” but I cannot guarantee that you’ll see another sunrise

Romantic, You: He’s fond of calling you “darling”, but he’ll also drop the occasional “sugar” if he’s feeling frisky, or “fucker” if he’s had enough of your teasing

Romantic, Him: you can call this man anything you want and he will come running. He seems to prefer “sweetheart” over anything else though. Also he definitely has some kind of authority kink so anything in the realm of “sir/master/daddy” will immediately get you into the bedroom
