i think it’s really cool that wrecker is like. hunter’s ride or die for most of the show. even in clone wars, bro just listens to him and respects him at all times. “wrecker DROP HIM” and he does. season one episode one, when hunter goes after caleb and the other troopers show up saying they have orders from the supreme chancellor, but wrecker blocks them and goes “hunter’s HANDLING IT”
lots of other examples throughout season 1 and 2, and even in the sanctuary book apparently (i haven’t read it yet but i’ve seen bits and snippets), where wrecker listens to hunter pretty much no matter what. sure he’ll do a little bro complaint or something, but he trusts and respects hunter completely. if he tells him to do something, he’s going to do it.
then season 2 finale happens. and in season 3, we see that actually change.
he’s questioning hunter. telling him to stop and think. yea, he still trusts him and follows orders, but there’s doubt now. and not because he thinks hunter is at fault for what happened to tech and omega, but because that event probably brought so much doubt and anxiousness where before he had only had very little. he was always a very confident person, and so much of that is shattered after they lose tech.
