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.

In the words of the Author: “…a little foray into art, war and how the two meet and explode around the Bad Batch.”

16/10. Gold first read. Paradigm shifting. Flood the room with tears.
Art, revolution, mercy, resilience.
RemembranceAnd everybody lived happily ever after, right? RIGHT?
“So do me a favour, sniper. When you want to give a grand ode to the futility of existence and fire rounds at the reasons for it, try to hit what you’re fucking aiming at. Hate the system. Not the brothers who are on your side.”
