Summary
When the other Batchers join Echo and Fives for game night, Hunter stays back to hang out with Cody and Rex...but Cody has to finish reports first, so he lets Rex watch Hunter for a few hours.
Given how little the captain currently knows about his newly adopted brother's enhancements, though, that may have been a bad idea.

Summary
Crosshair and Wrecker are supposed to be on watch, and they are, technically -- they just got a little distracted.
“Whoa.” Wrecker’s brown eyes sparkled brighter than the fireflies as he watched three of the little bugs flicker from one place to another.
Balancing a toothpick between his teeth, Crosshair stole a look at his brother out of the corner of his eye and smiled faintly. Technically, the two of them were supposed to be on watch, but Hunter hadn’t told them that they couldn’t lie down in the grass to see the weird little creatures that blinked on and off when you least expected them to.
Besides, what was the need for a night watch when Hunter would hear, smell, or sense an intruder long before they posed a threat?

Summary
Shep gets worried after he hasn't seen the Batchers for nearly an entire day, and goes to investigate. He unintentionally intrudes upon a memorial service and learns of yet another loss the clone soldiers suffered during the days of the War.
Shep tried to keep his features schooled, but inside he was getting even more confused by the moment. "Ninety-Nine?" he repeated, wondering if he had heard the name correctly.
"Yeah. He was the first defective the longnecks allowed to decant, so the other cadets just called him by his number." Hunter watched the whiskey glimmer through the sunlit glass. "You know, he always made sure every other clone had a name, but in the end, he never gave himself one."

Commander Fox's Very Bad, No Good Day (That Gradually Got Better) by archivewriter1

Summary
Fox doesn't want to admit he's sick because he wants to go see his batchmates. His batchmates don't want him to push himself too hard.
This ends in snuggles.
“Aw, kriff.”
That was all that squeaked through Fox’s clenched teeth as his caf cup nearly slipped out of his hand, and it was all he would allow himself to say as he reached for a crappy napkin to swipe up the drops that had splashed over the rim of his mug. Because if he said anything else, everything that had been pent up inside him for the past few days – or week, or month or actually his whole life – would come cascading out and he didn’t want that to happen ever, but especially not today.
Today he needed to keep it together, even more than usual. Today he didn’t have time for screwups, for cursing his way through the halls or dropping his favorite mug and breaking it into a million pieces. He could not acknowledge how sore his throat felt or how funny his voice sounded while it was being pinched by a stuffy nose. He couldn’t, and so he didn’t.
Today was too important.

Summary
Rex takes Hunter with him on what is supposed to be a simple mission. He should have known than nothing with a Bad Batcher is ever really that simple.
Or, Hunter turns into a gremlin of a little brother when it's just him and Rex, and the captain just has to deal with it.
Rex stared at the pale purple sky for a long few seconds, hardly daring to blink as he took a silent roll call and made sure all of his limbs and major organs were still where they should be. To his surprise, they were.
He could not believe that plan had actually worked.
He lay there for a moment, listening for the sound that would mean he and his sidekick for this little excursion had succeeded in their mission, when a low groan from nearby made him start.
“Hunter!”

Summary
Echo breathed out slowly and listened to the soft scratching of Wrecker’s tools, the creak of a thin bunk mattress as Crosshair shifted his scant weight, the steady rhythm that Tech was tapping against the cockpit floor as he worked. It was nice, being at rest like this with his brothers, and he smiled at the comfortable feeling.
It had been a month now since he and Fives had joined the Bad Batch, since they and the group of clones and Jedi sent to the Citadel had been rescued from what would have certainly been a fatal encounter had the modified Omicron shuttle not appeared in the skies over Lola Sayu. He had known immediately that the four troopers who risked their necks on an unauthorized detour to save them were special, but he had not expected them to become his own squadmates. He had never counted on integrating so thoroughly into their tight-knit ranks, but in the span of only a few weeks, it had just…happened.
Not that he would have it any other way.

Summary
For several rounds of sabacc, Tech had simply read and basked in the shouting, laughing, and general mayhem that was playing out amongst his siblings. Echo knew he would enjoy doing so for much longer, so he did nothing to impede his brother’s silent research.
Unfortunately but in keeping with his usual operating procedure, Crosshair did not follow his brother’s example.

Summary
Quinlan likes visiting the Coruscant Guard, and not just because annoying Fox is his favorite pastime. He enjoys the company and the cats, because no matter how hard the troopers tried to avoid it, their barracks have become home to a dozen or more stray tookas who formerly wandered the cityworld's dark alleys. So, fresh off a Shadow excursion and eager to see the Corries and their pets again, the first thing Quinlan does is strut straight to the barracks. While there, he happens to meet the Guard’s newest trooper - a likeable, sunny-faced shiny named Silver.
But when he returns the next day, Silver is gone.
Or, the story of how a chance meeting and a hungry tooka kitten led to Quinlan finding out about the reappearing clones, uncovering Fox’s unique way of saving his brothers, and helping the Corrie Guard bring the Chancellor’s plot to its knees.
Updated on Wednesdays.

Summary
Cody’s handwriting is legible, but just barely. That’s all the Kaminoans were concerned with – efficiency and uniformity – and if he ever needed to write anything beyond the scribbled correction on a report, the assumption was that he could just type it.
But he typed battle reports. He typed requisitions and lists of the dead. When he gets the chance to write to Riyo during their time apart, he wants it to be different, somehow. He wants this to be something that is just for them. He wants her to have a piece of him to remember, if one day he becomes a number on one of those dead lists.
So he practices his handwriting. He writes pages and pages of nonsense, of things he could never say aloud – things he won’t write to her, not yet. Not until he’s better.
Not until he’s good enough.

Pillow Forts and Purple Ice Cream (And the Life We Never Had) by archivewriter1

Summary
“Deke!” Omega squealed, her voice reaching a pitch that made both Batcher and Hunter flinch away from the living room and made the moonyo playing with the lurca hound’s tail cover his little green ears. “Watch out! That's my ice cream!”
“Sorry!” the softhearted cadet called back. “I can't move under here.”
“Nobody can.” Mox's words were muffled, turned to mush by the amount of pillows and blankets between him and the Batchers. “We need more pillows to make it bigger.”
Echo had been calmly stirring a pot of whatever was for dinner as it simmered on the stove, but at that, his head snapped up, nostrils flaring.
“And just where do you think you'll be getting more pillows?” he asked flatly. He had already burned one dish due to the noisy distractions known as Omega, Lyana, and the three cadets, so he was just a tad cranky.
Suddenly, he stopped stirring and wrinkled his nose. “And why is there ice cream in the living room?”

Summary
Cody had always been thought of as just a soldier. Just a clone. Just a breathing weapon, created to maim and kill and destroy.
He knew that’s what most beings believed regarding the Fett clones, yet he and his brothers had always known they weren’t just what the Kaminoans made them to be. They knew they were sentient, capable of love, sorrow, and desire, and possessing all the emotions and faculties of intelligent beings. They knew they were human.
Cody knew that. He was reminded of that each time he looked at one of his brothers. Every time he had seen a cadet or held a newly decanted tubie on Kamino, every time he said another remembrance for a fallen brother. Every time he saw Riyo, and felt his heart stutter madly in his chest.
But sometimes, knowing the truth wasn’t enough.

Summary
Echo doesn't regret his decision to help the Clone Rebellion and leave Pabu once more with Rex, Cody, Wolffe, and Gregor. But he does miss the Batch and Omega, more than he can even say.
Cody tilted his head in confusion when he saw how Echo was sleeping in a ball, thinking that had to be uncomfortable while he was still wearing all his prosthetics – then he realized what the cyborg was curled around, and smiled softly.
“He said he couldn’t sleep because of the draft,” Rex whispered. He looked fondly at his younger sibling and shook his head with a faint, exasperated smile. “But I guess he just needed them.”

Summary
Plo Koon babysits crechelings, and photos of the Wolfpack make one little padawan think of how to cheer up a certain commander.
Charki plucked one of the printed photos from the pile and held it up to the older Jedi, his dark gray eyes alight with curiosity. “Is this Sinker?
“No, silly,” Zia huffed, grabbing a handful of the pictures that were not already in the possession of her fellow padawans and shuffling through the assortment. “That’s Wolffe.”
“How can you tell?” Fern asked, glancing between the two photos she held, one in each hand. Boost and Sinker were together in both photos, as was usual for the tight-knit siblings, and had their helmets on, so it was understandable that she was a little confused.
