The Bad Batch sat inside their quarters when Hunter enters
Fiend: how'd the report go?
Hunter: went well, all things considered
Fiend: all things considered? Wrecker slapped the queen! on the ass!
Wrecker turns to Fiend
Wrecker: HEY! THERE WAS A BUG ON THERE! NOT MY FAULT IT CHOSE HER BUTTOCKS!
Fiend: SHE ATTACKED YOU FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT! look, Wrecker, you don't just slap a girl on the ass! bug on there or not!
Crosshair scoffs
Crosshair: I'm sure you would know about slapping women on the ass, hey Chief?
Fiend: go to hell, Cross
Hunter: lock it down, both of you
Fiend shakes his head and Crosshair goes back to inspecting his rifle
Fiend: so Sarge, what's next?
Hunter takes his helmet off and places it on his bed
Hunter: we've got a week off. Republic officials said so
Fiend: well, that's nice. full week, gives Tech and I an opportunity to give Echo an overhaul. because let's be real, he desperately needs one
Hunter: that's fair
Fiend: yeah, not tonight though. I need to be in the right frame of mind. can't think straight after all the flirting the queen did with me
Hunter walks to the window as Tech and Echo enter the room
Hunter: well then
Hunter turns to Fiend
Hunter: what were you thinking of doing?
Fiend strokes the chin part of his helmet in thought
Tech: what's going on?
Hunter: we've got a week off of assignments
Tech: a full week? gives us an opportunity to give Echo an overhaul
Echo: wait what?
Tech turns to Echo
Tech: come on Echo, you don't want to be made with separatist components forever do you?
Echo: well... no...
Tech: besides, overhauls are natural for machines. given you are mostly machine, its reasonable that you would also follow suit
Echo: yeah yeah, I get it
Fiend looks up
Fiend: I know something! there's this game some of the Marines would play back during the Human-Covenant war. some of them included me, although they had to make the game age appropriate as I was 12 at the time
Hunter: so, what's the game?
cut to an hour later, all 6 members of the Bad Batch sat around a table, a bottle of beer in their hands
Fiend: ok ok, alright, I got one. would you rather have sex with General Secura's body with Admiral Tarkin's head on it, or build a gunship from scratch?
Hunter: hmm
Tech: that's a tough one..
Wrecker: can I close my eyes?
Fiend: nope, eye contact the whole time and a lot of kissing
Crosshair: ok well how about General Secura's head on Admiral Tarkin's body?
