Some Wrecker headcanons for Wrecker Wednesday

Look, I know I talk about food a lot, but it's my true love, so I'm not sorry, and I'll probably definitely do it again.

Because this man can cook. He never really even considered cooking before the Batch got to Pabu, but after trying Shep's sushi, Wrecker and Omega begged Shep and Lyana to teach them how to make it. That was how it started.

And because Wrecker is intensely competitive and loves a challenge, he pushed himself to make the most perfect kriffin' sushi on the island. The most precise knife work for his sashimi, the most uniform nigiri, and when he perfected maki on the first day, he demanded a real challenge and immediately graduated to uramaki.

The Marauder was sticky for three days afterward.

After that, he wanted to learn it all. Every time he went to a new food cart on Pabu, he'd watch the vendor's techniques and try to replicate them exactly when he was practicing on his own. He scoured the holonet for new recipes and tutorials. He started testing new flavor combinations (some of them were so bad even Batcher wouldn't eat them, but mostly they were good to great), and combining different techniques, and experimenting with new ingredients that the Batch encountered on their travels. Sometimes it was a huge success, and sometimes it was a spectacular failure, but either way, he learned something new every single time.

Over time, he realized that the type of cooking he enjoyed most was the fiddly, delicate, precise work; he was good at it from all those years working with sensitive explosives, and he liked to keep his skills sharp. But what he loved most was when his family all sat down to eat a meal he'd painstakingly cooked for them, balancing Omega's endlessly curious palate with Hunter's sensitivity to overwhelming flavors and Crosshair's love of spicy and acidic food. When he found the perfect dish to satisfy all three? Well, that was a good day.

I write regular Wars with food anxiety because of assassination attempts where people have tried to poison him, so may I suggest to you:

[the-bi-space-ace]

Hi. I went to the dentist today and I was very brave about it so headcanons about the clone boys and the dentist for you.

Echo: hates the dentist quite like any other medical thing. He will put off going as long as possible and refuses to go alone. He does however floss every day and take very good care of his teeth. The routine of it all is something he loves doing and it makes him feel put together.

Hunter: honestly just knock him out if you’re taking him to a dentist. His senses hate it here. It’s bright. Everything inside his mouth hurts. There’s too many things happening. Stop. Stop it all. Brushes regularly but won’t floss.

Crosshair: has constant jaw pain and the dentist keeps telling him that the toothpicks are bad for his teeth but he refuses to stop. Bit the dentist as a kid and threatens to do it even as an adult. Worst patient. Insists on a little treat afterwards (Echo always takes him to go get a little treat bc they go together each and every time)

Tech: prepared man. Knows each step and how much it’ll cost before he even books the appointment. He is that Ron Swanson ‘I know more than you’ meme. Him and Echo have a nighttime routine together so they both have excellent check ups.

Wrecker: sweet man loves his candy! He has a few cavities here and there but he does brush regularly! Hates flossing! Has accidentally swallowed mouthwash like it was a shot before though (this isn’t based on previous experience what do you mean shut up)

Cody: if he misses a step he will start over. Doesn’t feel clean without it. Has never had a cavity and thinks it’s some kind of competition. He goes every six months because they recommended it to him in his first adult visit and he just… does it. He wants to win at dentist which is perfectly reasonable and a thing you can accomplish.

Rex: has to be dragged and grumbles the whole time. Is bitter about Cody ‘winning’ at the dentist. Takes decent enough care of his teeth but hasn’t been to a dentist in five years. Cody tells him he’s ’setting a bad example’.

Cooking with the batch (some silly headcanons)

This is purely for fun and for me to kill time while I wait for my potatoes to finish.

Cw for food and eating related content

Hunter

I feel like he’s actually really good at cooking. I think he prefers fast and effective recipes, but is amazing at fine tuning spices, herbs and flavors in general. This man has an enhanced sense of smell so his cooking is probably simple, but delicious.

Tech

Tech is a very smart person and prefers to work by facts. I feel like he’s really good at making everything very nutritious and healthy, meeting everybody’s needs, because he knows how and pays attention to details. He doesn’t cook often because there are usually more imports matters that need his attention, but when he does everybody feels really good afterwards.

Wrecker

Let’s be real, my man loves good food. But I feel like he usually prefers to buy food, because he can try many different cuisines authentically. He is also the one most prone to burning stuff, but he is an amazing kitchen helper. Also has the cutest apron. And I feel like he is the most creative in preparing food from scratch on missions.

Echo

His food usually turns out pretty good because he does the cooking by the book. I mean that man read the Rishi manuals for fun and got his name for repeating orders. He has a cooking book, he follows the instructions and boom, his cooking is good. Echo of course can freestyle and adapt to different situations, but when it comes to cooking he doesn’t really need to, because the book worked well so far.

Omega

Loves cooking as a group activity. Just everyone being in the kitchen, working, chatting and laughing together. She regularly convinces her brothers to do that with her when they’re without missions and loves every second of it.

Crosshair

Doesn’t really see a point in cooking besides getting nutrients into his body. Prepares food quickly and doesn’t put much thought into it. However, when he likes to be around someone, he actually enjoys sitting in the kitchen and listening to the designated cook talk.

[ljpynn]

The Bad Batch's preferred Pizza toppings:

Omega = Plain Cheese

Echo = Pepperoni

Hunter = Sausage

Wrecker = Hawaiian

Tech = Classic Supreme

Crosshair = Wants a calzone instead

The Molasses Mission

 Captain Syndulla recognizes that her crew isn't just soldiers or rebels or heroes. They're survivors. They're kids who had to grow up so fast, they never got the chance to be kids— and the youngest of them were kids even still.

 So she tries to find ways to let them have fun while still sticking it to the Empire, and one of them is to boost morale by letting them get treats. They don't get them very often, but sometimes, after a big mission, the ones that are hardest to complete but come with the most payoff, she lets them each pick one snack on the next supply run, a snack to be their own personal snack, one they don't have to share with anyone.

🍪•🍪•🍪

 Ezra Bridger grew up on the streets, and when you grow up on the streets, you don't refuse an offer for food— free food, all yours, something you wouldn't normally get yourself— so naturally Ezra's initially very excited when asked if he'd like a special treat on this week's supply run.

 The problem he runs into is when you grow up on the streets, and suddenly you find yourself with a crew that may as well be family, and as such cares about your health and general wellbeing, they're insistent on things like "eating at least two meals a day, if not three" and that's two more meals, if not three, than you were ever guaranteed on the streets. As such, Ezra's not really all that hungry these days. 

 So, the first few times this happens, he's ecstatic over his own personal snack, but pretty soon he realizes he's without the time to eat them, or he'll save them for a "special occasion" that just never comes, or he's just not even hungry, and he starts to feel bad that he's not eating them.

 That's when he gets an idea.

🍪•🍪•🍪

 Chopper doesn't like doing supply runs as is, but he especially doesn't like when Hera sends him with Ezra. The kid's constantly asking him what's on the list, he stops to chit-chat with all the merchants, and his haggling skills are not as great as he thinks. This would be so much faster if Hera would send him by himself— but, of course, the way this galaxy is run, an astromech can't make a supply run themselves, and once again he's forced to rely on these stupid organics.

 He protests when Ezra grabs a second box of Molasses Cookies. Today's supply run includes treats, but Sabine is the only member of the crew who eats them.

"One of the boxes is for me," Ezra explains, but Chopper protests. His memory banks aren't that erratic, and he distinctly remembers Ezra's vocal dislike of the cookies that "ought to be sweet instead of tasting like dirt" and "are too dry" and "should come with a warning label before being jam-packed with that many nuts."

 But, Ezra insists that that's his treat for the week, and frankly, Chopper couldn't care less. It was one less thing to have to track down here, and maybe Ezra's tastes have just changed.

 Organics could be weird like that.

🍪•🍪•🍪

Sabine had always been very protective of personal property. She didn't want anyone touching her weapons, her paints, or her food.

 Especially her food.

 Especially her molasses cookies. Everyone on The Ghost knew to stay more than a parsec away from her molasses cookies.

 Even still, she counted them every time she grabbed one out of the pack. If someone had taken one, it'd be a nice chance to let out the pent-up anger she had at the mere thought of someone eating her cookies.

 Which is why it was weird that, over the last week, every time she'd counted, she'd had exactly seven cookies left, despite eating one each time. At first, she thought she just miscounted, but soon she realized that, no, her cookies were somehow never running empty.

 She didn't ask questions— don't look a gift strill in the mouth, right?— even after she opened the box one day and found eight cookies. What could she possibly ask, anyways? "Who's been giving me more cookies?" Like some kind of crazy person? There was a war going on, she had more important things to worry about than how something good was happening to her for a change.

🍪•🍪•🍪

 It may as well just be a regular part of his Jedi practice now. Always staying on the alert for when Sabine was eating one of her cookies. Training himself to wake up in the middle of the night. Sneaking out of his room and into the galley with a cookie from his secret stash. Placing the cookie and getting back to his room. And the most important step, watching Sabine's reaction the next time she went for a cookie and found the same amount left.

 But what did not feel like a regular part of his training was what happened this time: finishing the job, turning around, and seeing Sabine sitting at the table, watching him.

 "SABINE!?" Ezra exclaimed, backing up against the counter behind him by instinct, then remembering the stealth part of these missions and lowering his tone, "it's not what it looks like! I mean maybe it is what it looks like, if it looks like what it is, but, uh... what are you doing, anyway? Do you normally wait up in the galley to scare unsuspecting spectres? Huh, that was fun to say."

 "Let's just say my curiosity got the better of me." Sabine stood up and walked over to him, "After all, what is it they say back on Lothal? 'Curiosity catches the Loth Cat?' And it looks like," she pointed an accusatory finger at Ezra, poking him in the chest as she stepped forward, "that's exactly what I just caught."

 "Uh," Ezra said, and even though he thought Sabine might be a little upset, he also noticed how lovely she looked in the low lighting of the galley, which actually made him all the more nervous, "technically, I think the phrase is curiosity killed the Loth Cat. You're not, uh, planning to...."

 "Of course not," Sabine said, and there was a bit of a laugh in her tone, "I just wanted to know."

 "Well," Ezra shrugged, "now you know."

 "No," Sabine said, "I know who, not why. What's your angle?"

 "Angle?" Ezra asked.

 "Was this an attempt to bribe me or something?" Sabine asked.

 "If I wanted to bribe you," Ezra asked, "don't you think I would've let you know it was me?"

 Sabine nodded. "Not even you are that stupid."

 "Right," Ezra said, "I just. I'm still trying to finish my second box of Loth-Crackers, so on the last supply run, I grabbed a box of cookies instead, and gave myself this secret mission to sneak them in here— Jedi practice, that's all."

 "That's all?"

 "Yeah," Ezra's feet shuffled, "That, and I noticed how happy you always are over something as small as cookies, and I, I don't know. It's the only time you smile unless something's blowing up, and I, I don't know…."

 As he'd been talking, Sabine had turned and stood next to him, leaning against the same countertop. He turned to look at her, and noticed a bittersweet expression, and thought it might be wise to stop talking and start listening. After a moment, his listening finally paid off, and Sabine spoke up.

 "Uj'alayi."

 "What?"

 "Uj'alayi," she crossed her arms, though not gruffly, "one of my favorite cakes. When I was little, my dad would make it for us for special occasions. I haven't had it since before...."

 Sabine shook her head, and Ezra nodded for her to continue.

 "It's a secret Mandalorian recipe," she explained, "those molasses cookies don't hold a candle to it, but it's the closest you can get when you're... when you don't know the recipe. Taking a bite of one is like...." she smiled a little and shook her head again.

 Sabine had never said this much to him in one conversation, but Ezra didn't want her to stop. He wanted to keep hearing more about her, getting to know her more, but realized she'd closed herself off again, and respected that.

 "That's," Ezra shrugged, "thank you for sharing."

 "Thank you," Sabine said.

 Much to Ezra's surprise, she wrapped an arm around him in a hug, so quick it was done and over before Ezra even realized it's happened, though he could still feel its lingering warmth, even as she said goodnight and left the galley.

 Ezra watched the smile on her face as long as he could as she left, then smiled to himself in return as he tucked her box of cookies back where they belonged in the pantry and whispered, "best mission ever."

[not-so-allegiant-general]

Hux had a strange relationship with food. He wouldn't call it a disorder because in his life everything must be in order. So rather than fix problems he preferred lying to himself. He doesn't call it lying of course. It's just... Not exactly the truth but close enough for him.

When It comes to Kylo he could eat a table if it would be well-prepared. I mean... If It was edible. Em.. Yup he just loves food. He eats a lot and he actually can cook. And he can't look at Hux eating these ration bars. Especially when he knows that this is probably his only meal for all day.

Because Hux basically lives on kaff, ration bars, stims, cigarettes and FO instant noodles when he has better days. Kylo is impressed that Hux never collapsed on the bridge because of that.

One day he cooked him a proper meal. Hux was looking at the plate on his desk.

"What is the meaning of this Ren?"

" Meaning? Its food. You know. The real one not this fake trashy bars. Sit down and eat"

Hux only rolled his eyes.

" I don't have time for nonsense "

" Oh sorry. You think it was a request?"

"Excuse me?"

"It was an order General. Sit down and eat. "

"Fuck yourself Ren."

"Well no fucking till you eat"

" You can't say that! "

" i can and i just did it. Hux .. Just try alright ? I've done it by myself... "

Hux closed his eyes and sighed. He murmured silent "fine" and sat behind the desk. He sighed again taking a fork and looking at the plate like it was going to eat him. "Okay fine" he told himself. "It's fine"

"Hux?"

"Am i talking to you Ren?"

"Um... I... Don't know ?"

"Right. Then shut up" He was good at forcing himself to do things that he actually didn't want to do. So he ate. Not a lot, but he ate. "Happy? You ignorant walking trash can?"

"Did you like it?"

" It doesn't really matter. At least not for me Ren. Can you... Leave ?"

"What?"

"Just get out" and he left. And Hux didn't know who he hated more. Kylo because he actually left him alone? The plate? Because it was still on his desk? Or himself ? Because of everything.

Kylo showed up the next day with a pack of ration bars and protein shakes. Hux looked at him silently.

"I.. i am sorry... It wasn't fair. I should have warned you and asked i ... I was just worried.. I... Brought you something that you might like better i guess ? Em... Just... Please make sure you eat more than one of these all day... "

"Ah. Is that an order Ren?"

" I already apologized, Hux. Do not make it harder. " Hux looked at the bars and took one.

" I will make sure. " He went silent again And tried not to look at Kylo" And Ren... I.. I know you are right and It wasn't bad. The meal... I just... "

" i know. Take care of yourself Hux or i will start taking care of you. And believe me you wouldn't like it"

Hux actually laughed

" I don't have any complaints about your care as far"

" Do you now...? " Kylo crossed his arms. " Should i cook you another meal?"

"I... No. At least not now. Maybe... Some day. But i wouldn't mind fucking..."

"Greedy, aren't you? " Kylo rolled his eyes and smiled.

If you are interested the "Some day" did happen. Hux was laying next to Kylo on the bed. He was eating pasta. Because it was the most similar food to instant noodles, and he knew he could somehow push It through.

" And? Is it fine?"

"Bearable."

Kylo smiled.

"No one would believe me if i said that this is an actual compliment coming from you"

" No one would also believe that you moan like a common whore but you don't brag about it, aren't you?"

" You should have listened to yourself, sweetie pie" Hux choked at the fork and glared at him angrily. But then Kylo hugged him, and he almost forgot why he was so angry. And he thought that one day he could actually enjoy this. Ren cooking for him, hugging him, smiling at him and taking care. It was strange. But bearable. And It was in fact a compliment.

[heyclickadee]

So, today on silly headcanons that don’t matter and would probably never apply to the batch’s situation but I like them anyway: Random thoughts on what would happen if each of the batchers had to make a cake (and had unlimited access to all of the ingredients that they’d need):

Omega: Woo!! Cake!! *makes a bunch of space chocolate (there’s space chocolate, right?) cupcakes with a few different colors of icing so that she can put them together and make it look like Ruby. Wrecker keeps walking by to help out and even sneaks her some ruby chocolate chips so it can be a ruby chocolate Ruby cupcake cake. The end result is very cute, even if Omega does have to end up having to use mantell mix to make the face (someone kept eating her cupcakes and she ran out by the time she got to the face). The kitchen, though—it’s a complete disaster by the end, and Omega had the best time making that mess*

Hunter: So…my batter’s cured solid in the mixer. Is that supposed to happen? *Okay, so, his cake looks gorgeous. He’s managed to paint a sunset on Pabu onto what looks like a three tiered cake with buttercream, and it’s got this amazing texture and impressionistic look. Unfortunately, when you cut into it, it’s just three tiers of ground up ration bars fused into a kind of concrete using burnt caramel. It tastes like sand and death.*

Echo: It’ll be perfect as long as I follow the recipe. *He looks at the recipe, sees at least five ingredients he can’t eat, and decides to make a smoothie that he can eat instead. He’s not a big fan of cake, and that’s okay. It’s a really good smoothie.*

Tech: Baking is just chemistry. What could go wrong? *Lots of things. Lots of things can go wrong. Turns out that chemistry (outside of biochem) is a bit of a blind spot for Tech, and our guy can’t just follow directions without experimenting a little. Or a lot. In the end, he does end up with something. It’s not cake, but it’s definitely something. Some might call it clam chowder in a bread bowl. Really good clam chowder in a bread bowl. Just—it’s definitely not cake.*

Crosshair: Hhmm. *Crosshair can’t be too bothered to make a cake, so he buys three boxes of space funfetti cake mix, follows the directions on the box exactly, stacks the three funfetti cakes with funfetti icing in between, and then decorates the whole thing with the icing leftover from both Hunter’s and Omega’s cakes. That said, his piping is amazing. Everyone’s afraid to eat his cake because it looks so pretty. He also ate about five of Omega’s cupcakes, but it’s okay—she kept putting them on his side of the table so that he would.*

Wrecker: YEAH! CAKE TIME, BABY!! *disappears for three days and re-emerges with this gravity defying illusion cake that looks like the Maurader flying over a rocky moon full of B-1s. The B-1s are made of tempered chocolate and full of salted caramel, he’s using at least four different flavors of cake and three different kinds of cream filling, there’s a ganache river on the moon surface, the marauder cake is actually levitating (because Star Wars), it has jets of sugar glass that actually light up coming out of the engine, AND it fires choux pastry proton bombs that actually explode with jogan fruit mousse when they hit the ground. There’s even a whole section especially made for Echo so that he can eat it. And it all tastes perfect. He ends up the designated cake guy on the rare occasions they need a cake, and he couldn’t be more delighted.*

[dystopicjumpsuit]

This might be a weird ask, so please disregard if you’re not interested in answering it.

I think you mentioned once that you like to cook, and a lot of your fics have mentions of food (which I love btw). So I was wondering: Do you have specific meals/recipes that make you think of certain clones? Or, do you have any headcanons as to Earth-based meals/foods specific clones would deem their favorite?

Not a weird ask at all! I do love to cook, and I'm always down to talk about food 💚

I will always think about fresh pasta with wild mushroom ragu when I think about Waxer thanks to "The Sixth Language." I have actually made that meal, and it's delicious. (I also tried to do the sexy cooking lesson with my partner, which was... Less successful 💀)

I personally headcanon that every clone has a massive sweet tooth thanks to their enhanced metabolisms and the fact that they didn't get sweets growing up. I also think they would pretty much all enjoy spicy food. This HC is for sure influenced by how spicy Mandalorian cuisine is supposed to be.

I think a lot of family-style meals would be really appealing to the clones, just because they would appreciate the sense of community. Any meal where a big group of people gathers around a table to eat and drink and laugh and talk and bond—I think that would be a dream come true for a lot of the clones. NB I'm not necessarily talking about literal biological family here; I mean it in the sense of the people you love and care about most—whomever that may include.

As far as specific foods:

I think Gregor would have a weakness for cheeseburgers (and apparently pineapple).

Dogma seems like a risotto man to me, for some reason (the technique would appeal to him, I think). He would probably love the precision of molecular gastronomy.

We know the Bad Batch loves sushi! I think seafood would be popular with a lot of the clones because they grew up on an oceanic world (though to be honest, I don't know whether their diets actually included seafood on Kamino, or whether it was just nutrient sludge).

I think Crosshair would love ramen—if he ever got a chance to actually take a bite of it.

Jesse seems like he would be very aware of his macros, and he'd be a surprisingly good cook. Mapo tofu would be his specialty. He would tell you exactly how many grams of protein was in it.

Tup... Vegetarian. Idk why, he just gives the vibe. But he'd be sneaky about it. He'd feed you the most amazing meal of your life, and you'd never even realize it was vegan.

Fireball would probably love poke bowls. Extra avocado, please!

Kix is addicted to junk food, and if anyone teases him about it, he'll be extra shaky next time he has to give them an injection. Jesse is constantly trying to get him to do better.

Rex has been a Sunday roast fan ever since he ate dinner with Cut and Suu.

Wolffe and Hunter seem like barbecue men—legit barbecue, not burgers and hot dogs. Like cochinita pibil, Texas-style brisket, barbacoa, Carolina whole hog. FIRE🔥

Cody secretly loves cheap pizza (think Little Caesar's), but if you asked him his favorite food, he'd probably say something like coq au vin. Don't get me wrong, he likes coq au vin too; it just doesn't scratch that particular itch.

The entire Coruscant Guard loves street food. Any kind of street food. If it comes from a food truck and can be eaten while walking, they're happy.

Damn, this got out of hand! I could go on until the world ended, but I have to stop somewhere. Thank you for the amazing question, Alli! It was so much fun to think about. And I'm so happy you enjoy the way I work food into my fics! One of my upcoming multichapter stories has an OC who is an aspiring cookbook author, and there is SO. MUCH. FOOD in that fic.

[lume-nescence]

Being Soma, Megumi, & Takumi’s S/O

(separate)

an: okay i know i said something about “frequent uploads” but i got lazy again,,, anyways i’ve rarely seen any food wars fics so i’d thought to write something for it! not sure if anyone’s heard or into it as well but i just love this trio <3 (we’re going to ignore that this has been sitting in my drafts for two months)

pronouns: they/them

genre: headcanons, crack

cw: possibly ooc soma

Soma

being his s/o would be amazing or terrifying

why terrifying? you know his disgusting experiments he calls food? yes since you’re his lovely s/o you have the honor of being the taste tester for them

if you’re good at cooking, he’ll be challenging you to tons shokugekis. if you’re not, that’s alright, he’s cool with giving some tips he’s got from his dad and teaching you <3

he’ll always 1-up you. and i mean always. he’s so competitive

like we get it soma you’re a godly cook

you both taste each other’s dishes and compliment one another until mans said

“y/n i think you should add a little more salt to enhance the flavor.”

“WHAT? SAYS YOU!”

“really now? you talking to me like that says otherwise. i think YOU’RE the salty one here.”

he’s such a tease. say you’re.. short, or shorter than him, and you’re trying to get something from the top shelf of the kitchen in the polar star dormitory.

he’ll be there snickering like: “wow, y/n, how’s the weather down there?”

yeah, eventually he’ll help you out afterwards

if you’re taller he’s in awe. like: “woah! never knew there’s someone taller than me.”

and he means it lovingly, but that doesn’t stop him from challenging you to shokugekis every now and then

i imagined this one scenario where you and him are casually taking a stroll in town and then when you came across something you wanted to eat, you were hesitant into getting it until soma noticed and was like “oh, you want to try those? i’ll get some for us to try!”

and then.. he got challenged into a shokugeki because of his reputation. which of course he accepts because soma is soma. but newsflash, he won of course because he’s soma <3 plot armor *coughs*

but you both enjoyed their food <3 soma gives them tips as well

when y o u get challenged to a shokugeki with HIM just idling standing by, he’s literally like: “woah there, challenging them on the spot? wrong move. do you know who you’re facing?” with that smirk on his face.

immediate confidence boost.

he’ll be your confidence booster <3

when he introduces you to the polar star gang he goes: “guys, this is y/n. my s/o. they’re the #2 chef beside me!” with him happily patting your head/shoulder

anyways, he’s a teasing asshole but he’s your teasing asshole <3

Megumi

i love her. she’s so cute!

agahdga faints

im sorry i love her so much

if you’re having a bad day, she’ll be panicking at first and then ask you what’s wrong. when you told her what’s wrong she said she’ll cook something up for you to make you feel better

and you know her food SLAPS. (sorry soma ily) her food can make someone feel a sense of warmth and comfort inside since her specialty is hospitality

now i want to try her food

once she’s finished she brings the dish up to you with a confident look on her face like: “i got this. they will feel better in no time! you got this megumi! you’ve come a long way with your cooking!”

sobbing i love her. did i say that already?

once you tried her dish, you have a smile plastered on your face as expected. you thanked her for the food and say how delicious it is. she’s literally all: “oh! thank you! ah- you’re welcome! it’s no problem! im just looking out for you!”

megumi :((

she’s willing to cook for you! say you’re like “i could go for some food rn” she’s IMMEDIATELY on it

i have a feeling she’ll say “i love you!” every 2 minutes to make sure you’re aware of it.

because she does love you!

she’s literally a mother to you frfr

“have you eaten?” “did you drink water?” she’s just looking out for you because she really cares about you <3

omg and picnic dates too WAAAAAA

okay i haven’t written something dumb here yet so im going to do just that

sorry megumi ilysm but im going to implement some dumb shit here too

okay so you decided to warm up some leftovers megumi gave you right?

well, you realized that you put your metal utensils in there too

you forgor

megumi was panicking so much and almost tripped when trying to stop the microwave

god bless her

she doesn’t trust you with the microwave after that

and please don’t ever try that

megumi care you

<3

Takumi

ah yes, we love a tsundere boy.

i can picture his brother teasing him for being so close to you and he’s all flustered

“ISAMI!! NOT IN FRONT OF THEM-“

cue isami lol’ing irl

also him flirting with you in italian oh my

he’d be the type to tell you cheesy pick up lines

like “are you a parking ticket? because you’ve got fine written all over you.”

you couldn’t help but snort and say “takumi are you done yet?” because he’s been going at it for 3 minutes. it’s as if he studied this pick up line thoroughly just for this moment

you know how he always challenges soma to a shokugeki right? well now he has another reason to be challenging him. it’s to impress you.

you’ll always see soma and takumi bicker when it’s just takumi doing most of the bickering

it’s hilarious to see takumi relishing his rival role towards soma

because you’re usually there to see him and he gets embarrassed

and my boy soma teases him for that

there are times where he’ll let you hold the mezzaluna <3

i can also picture him flexing in front of soma that he’s got a s/o before him

this man can make anything into a competition i swear

if someone’s rude to you, he’s scary when he’s mad.

drops the tsundere facade and puts on his big boy pants

he’ll have that same attitude from when he faced eizan

these are so short i apologize i got tired

but tbh takumi would be an amazing bf

@evilwriter37 and I were discussing what the Bad Batch would think about ice cream.

Wrecker: Eats too much too quickly at first and gets brain freeze and hates it. Yet he keeps eating it and realizes he loves it.

Omega: Loves it! Especially since it’s something she can do with Wrecker.

Echo: Likes it, and joins Wrecker and Omega half for the social aspect.

Hunter: Likes it but hides that he does.

Crosshair: Same.

Tech: Also likes it and hides that he does.

evilwriter37 about these last three: I can picture them all eating it and hiding it from each other.

Now I just picture them in three separate corners of a room, backs turned, eating it, and shooting the others secretive glances, if this were comedic fanart, that is.

Wrecker with Omega on his shoulders, both eating ice cream, and Echo, also eating ice cream, enter: So what are you three doing?

This is where Hunter and Crosshair bolt like startled wild animals, and Tech is over there with ice cream on his face.

You've written fics about Warriors being distracted by his skinniness. Does it bother Twilight or Sky or any of the others?

i’m not 100% sure what you mean by this, but I’m interpreting it as ‘Do the others worry about how Warriors negatively views himself?’

And the answer to that is: Most of them don’t realize how upset with his body Warriors is. They’ve obviously noticed sometimes he struggles with eating (because he’s afraid of poison), but they don’t realize how badly he wishes to be more muscular and built like Twilight, for example. Warriors is plenty strong how he is, but he’s quite thin and in my mind has a build kinda like a dancer. He doesn’t look like he’d be very strong necessarily, especially not compared to the others, but he’s more than capable and has plenty of strength. In my fics he’s stuck in a position where he wishes he could gain more weight but literally physically can not, and if/when the others find out about how upset he is with himself, they’ll do their best to be supportive and help him feel more comfortable in his own body. And they always worry about making sure he feels safe enough to eat, they all have their own problems and they’re very accommodating and open minded, and Warriors really appreciates that

The others look at him and think he’s plenty strong, they do not think he’s weaker than they are at all. He’s not someone they think they have to look out for by any means. With how I write him, Warriors just has this incredibly strict list of requirements for himself in his mind he thinks he has to meet in order to really deserve being a hero, and he thinks he looks more like a scrawny teenager than a young man who has such a huge title

(Eventually he gets better with how he views himself, and is also able to gain more healthy weight as he heals over the course of his life and he builds a better relationship with food)

hiii ingrid. do you have any headcanons about mandalore cuisine and/or bo-katan's relationship to mando cuisine. what are her favorite dishes, etc ... ❤️

Omg what a great ask, thank you!!!!!!

This post (and this person's blog in general) is a super cool writeup about mandalorian cuisine and I feel like it reflects most of my headcanons. I imagine overall that their food would be spicy, aromatic, hearty, and utilitarian. Lots of stews and soups and things like that, dishes that take one pot to cook and one bowl to consume.

I'm sure in the modern era they probably eat MREs in the field (we do see Bo make instant soup, etc.) but I also feel like they're the type of culture who, even nomadic groups or those on war campaigns, would prioritize cooking large meals with real ingredients as much as possible, as something to gather around communally and boost morale, etc.

I envision that Sundari under the new mandos was more of a global city without a huge focus on traditional food or culture in general, rather a mix of (mostly core world) fare from around the gffa. I could see trad mando food becoming something that's mostly eaten on occasions and holidays, for example, whereas most of the restaurants or what people eat day to day is imported/loaned cuisine from other cultures or "fusion" type fare.

Bo would've grown up eating mostly this— or really in my headcanons, mostly junk food and energy drinks, the depressed weirdgirl diet— so I could totally see her getting way into trad mando cuisine from a reactionary standpoint once she starts going down that path, lol.

I envision Concordia being much more traditional— obviously— and less modernized, so I'm sure they tend to still eat trad cuisine as their actual staple diet. I feel like one of her favorite parts of visiting there, even before getting sucked into death watch, would've been enjoying all this exciting and delicious ✨truly mandalorian✨ food (and getting immersed in the old culture she's so obsessed with in general, honestly.)

For her favorite foods— definitely uj cake, I headcanon her to be big into sweets and comfort food (the blogger above has a great recipe btw!)

I feel like she would love tiingilar too (which *I* have a great recipe for that I'm going to post soon!) It's probably the most iconic mandalorian dish— I could see it being considered very patriotic, especially by the more uh, nationalist types lol.

I do headcanon that Bo herself would be a terrible cook— growing up with palace chefs making all your food that isn't packaged snacks and then going straight into nomadic militia life will do that to you 😂
