I Believe Tech Is Alive.

Say what you want, but they needed to be humbled by Ventress. They really think they are all that Omega needs in protection.

My prediction/headcanon/whatever, for now:

Echo: "So, you really are just like me, then?"

Tech: "Technically that is not accurate. I make this look good."

Tech in season 1: Crosshair is strict and unyielding. I'm not defending him that's who he is.

Tech in season 2: He sent us a warning about Omega guys.

The real reason they have to kill Tech off is because he just would have shrugged off Crosshairs return and there'd be no drama lmao

I’m not surprised by anything in the second episode. But in the first, what not expecting that.

Has anyone else noticed in Infiltration and Extraction how heightened Crosshairs senses are. He’s sensing things that only Hunter would sense.

I believe Tech isn’t dead. Filoni is very good at no body, no proof.

So… they just left AZI with Cid??

What if clone x is Slick? Back from season 1

His death has yet to be confirmed.

He chose his own path and didn’t care if his brothers got hurt.

Also he appears in Dark Disciple. I have not read that book as of now, but I know Asaji Ventress is in it and she is also in this season of TBB. If anyone has read it please tell me what he does in it.

Okay, this is likely the only thing I'll post on the Bad Batch finale situation:

Tech fans, I would like you to stop calling yourselves "delusional." (Or delulu, or any variant.) I would sincerely ask others to stop as well.

It is both ableist and quite literally inaccurate from a storycraft standpoint.

(Especially because we're talking about a likely neurodivergent character and definitely many neurodivergent fans.)

You weren't. We weren't. The signs were there. The foreshadowing (falling into clouds, the goggles, CX2's Everything) was real and consistent and *intentional.* You are not delusional for LOGICALLY FOLLOWING writing convention patterns and leading where the writing is directing you. (If there's something the majority of autistic story-enthusiasts are good at, it's logical storycraft and pattern recognition, both in creating and consuming! We know how to follow basic steps!)

They can say "oh it was just a red herring", and that is Technically (ha) true, but it is one of the most blatant and frankly cruelly marketed ones, that smacks of stringing fan emotions along to keep us watching when they know many would stop watching if they knew what lay ahead. (Using a basically-confirmed-autistic character's death for shock value and little else, and then using the ambiguity of Is He Really Dead Or Is He This Extremely Similar Looking Guy We Brought in Right After' to keep churning up social media buzz. I might have.)

You were not delusional to have hope - that's what Star Wars is about.

You are not delusional to think this is wrong, a writing fumble, or simply them yanking the football away when *it was there all along.* The road signs were clear, they were just... lying, for lack of a better term.

You're not wrong for being upset about this, the latest in a long history of autistic characters treated as plot devices and catalysts for neurotypical characters' development rather than their own, and fans taken advantage of.

Please treat yourselves better. And if you're on the outside, or neurotypical, please treat us better. I promise, we have actual reasons for feeling pain right now, and delusions are not at all among them.

Thank you.

I truly believe Techs not dead. End of discussion.
