I often wonder of 99 and the batch. They would be close-
~def imagining him reacting with a preg Hunter, he a gentle grandpa~
In all my au’s 99 is dad, that’s all there is to it. But I and @wrecker-and-lula usually have it so that part of the reason 99 is how he is in the clone wars is that he tried to protect his boys by letting them experiment on him. Full Credit to @wrecker-and-lula, since they told me this idea and I fell in love with it.
99 makes a deal with the Kaminoans to adopt his boys, he has to let them experiment on him.
Hunter and Wrecker were 4, only a few months apart. Tech is three and baby Crosshair is only 6 months.
Crosshair is a sick little baby, has horrible lungs and other ailments. The boys were struggling before 99 came into the picture.
99 raises them, loving all his boys. He had triple aging though, plus the experiments. By the time Crosshair is 18 he is who we see in the clone wars.
Now for pregnant Hunter, 99 is very helpful.
He’ll cook him dinner and cuddle as much as Hunter wants, plus belly rubs and back rubs.
99 is there for any of his boys when they fall pregnant, he would never ever leave them on their own unless that’s what they explicitly ask.
Hunter is very happy for this, he needs his dad a lot, they all do. And there’s just a comfort of having his dad there to help, along with his husband.
