Fives, very drunk: You’re my favorite twin. :)

Echo: I’m your only twin.

Fives: I could have another twin you don’t know about.

Echo: One, I would definitely know, and two, that would make us triplets.

Fives: Yeah, which would make me have two twins. You and the other twin.

Echo, so confused: … How drunk are you???

Echo & Omega’s doll .✦ ݁˖

And why it’s one of my favourite scenes in The Bad Batch

Okay, so it should go without saying that I absolutely adore every single scene of Echo and Omega, their dynamic is just *chefs kiss*

But the small moment we get of the two at the market with Omega's newly acquired doll is just everything to me, and here's why:

So first thing's first, Echo is making space for a little girl in a busy market. And he is letting her take up space, he is letting her be a child in a galaxy that forces them to grow up too quickly. He shares her curiosity and childlike wonder with her, I'd go so far as to say he encourages her to lean into her innocent wonder.

Echo gives Omega his full attention despite there being about a million other things he could be focusing on, they're in an unfamiliar setting surrounded by hundreds of people. And as Fennec later proves, not all of these civilians are safe. But still, he gives Omega his undivided attention when he could have easily insisted she wait until they're back on the Marauder.

And maybe I've just rewatched that scene one too many times because I noticed that Echo hunches over slightly, makes himself smaller when giving Omega his attention. He's a tall dude especially compared to Hunter but we see him visibly making himself smaller to converse with Omega, once again showing that she's quite literally the only thing that matters to him in that moment, rest of the galaxy be damned.

Perhaps my favourite detail is that Echo too fusses over the doll. He takes it between his fingers and cradles it with his scomp. A tool that he's come to use through necessity after being torn apart by the separatists, is what he uses to steady the innocent comfort of his sister.

Echo is so tenderly gentle with Omega and her doll here when he has every reason not to be gentle after what he's gone through. But we see it time and time again, especially with Omega, that he softens himself in her company. Moreso than when he's with the other Batchers.

Anyways...I love this man with my entire being and the compassion and kindness that he encapsulates is just *MWAH* 😚

Also, lowkey embarrassed to post something like this because I have NEVER posted these kinds of analysis posts. I fear my adhd brain makes my ramblings nonsensical and a bit sporicidal. But here's to pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones in the last checks calendar five months of the year
