I have been wanting to make a post of Crosshair's facial expressions for a long time, and I will probably end up making several. But, I wanted to just take a moment to appreciate just how ✨ beautiful ✨ this man is, animated or not.
This post is dedicated to @drafthorsemath ❤️
(if anyone wants one of these as a profile pic send me a message and I'll format it for you! Please do not repost these edits without credit.)
Anakin: I promised Master Obi-wan and Commander Cody we wouldn´t do anything stupid or reckless.
Rex: Why would you lie to them like that?
I cannot implore the people who say “Crosshair never smiles Crosshair doesn’t joke around Crosshair is a stick in the mud” to watch the batch’s TCW arc enough. You are missing the snarkiest, smirkiest, quietly affectionate version of this character that we were supposed to see first like please I beg of you because you’re missing the entire gravity of his arc without it
Fives: So I can bake these cookies at 400 degrees for ten minutes or at 4000 degrees for one minute-
Echo: No-
Jesse: Floor it buddy
Echo: Fives no
Fives: How about 40000 degrees for one second!
Echo: You are going to burn the kitchen down
Jesse: Rex is going to murder us
Hunter: I could strangle you
Crosshair: You're not tall enough
Hunter: You've sunken low enough for me to reach
Captain Rex (The King)
I've throughly enjoyed watching his character development since 2008.
literally sick, we didn’t deserve obi wan
THE CLONE WARS | 7.09 AHSOKA | 1.05
I....I really need a minute to process my emotions from that finale, but wow. Selfishly, I hate every minute once they got on the rail cars because of course I want everyone happy and safe and bopping around the galaxy to Space Hits Radio and all 6 of them are taking on the Empire.
But objectively, just as a viewer, wow. Like holy shit, wow. Those two episodes were an amazing finale for an ongoing series. That was Star Wars. The emotional highs and devastating lows I felt through a cartoon are going to stay with me for a long time. I just....I'm really struggling to put into words the impact this all just had on me, but after this season, and especially after this finale, The Bad Batch is one of my top 3 Star Wars medias.
obi-wan: cody, do you think i can be difficult to work with? cody: there is no other jedi i would rather serve under, sir. obi-wan: you're speaking to the negotiator, cody. i know how to spot when someone's dodging a question. cody: you're my superior officer, sir. obi-wan: alright then. everything you say in the next thirty seconds is free, starting now. cody, immediately: you're cocky, pushy, reckless, flirty at the most inappropriate times, value vanity more than wearing armor in a war zone, have daddy issues so massive everyone can see it from clicks away- obi-wan: but- cody: i have 22.5 seconds left, sir. i'm not done.
