I have some thoughts

So as the finale is fast approaching, I know a lot of the #TechLives supporters are losing hope. BUT I still have faith that CX2 is him or at least a version of him. And there are a couple reasons why.

1. I don’t think for a second think the tbb crew would waste nearly THREE episodes of an already short and pivotal season with just a regular clone we have no attachment too. We have already seen these shadow assassins before. So if the identity of this particular shadow isn’t important, then WHY does he have so much plot armor and WHY haven’t we seen his face yet. If he was just another clone, they could easily just reveal that and nothing would be lost. Same if he just died, he could easily be replaced by ANOTHER SHADOW. So clearly the identity of this specific shadow is plot important.

2. Since we have already established that tbb typically doesn’t waste dialogue or screentime. What was going on here? They took several seconds to show Hemlock in this specific lab, (above the tower that earlier we saw another shadow standing guard at, episode 3 I think) looking at a some sort of tank. I bet is he is looking at Tech, healed and in a sort of dormant state. I have a theory that instead of CX2 being a crosshair clone, he could be a Tech Clone. Crosshair stated that the programming didn’t work on him due to his defective nature. WELL maybe it didn’t also work on Tech. So instead of dealing with another Crosshair. They kept Tech sedated and just used his dna to make a super ultra solider. That could explain the shadows utter lack of regard especially considering Omega.

3. Possible finale ending: this also works out in the one episode left. Because if the shadow tech is killed, but they find the real tech alive and “sleeping” then they can rescue him and not have to worry about deprogramming him! HAPPY ENDING WITH THE ENTIRE BATCH AND I CAN DIE HAPPILY.

I do feel a little insane after typing this all out. But I needed to share my possibly delusional hope. Because god damnit, I really don’t think Tech died. Anyway, I would love to hear y’all’s thoughts.

Please communicate with your friends oh my god. When I was 12, my best friend who I grew up with got a massive crush and would only ever talk about that. I hated it. I felt left behind. At the time I didn't know I was aromantic but that was pretty much my first taste of feeling less important to someone because they have a romantic interest now. And guess what? I told her how I felt about that and she apologized to me and although she still talked about her crush, I wasn't being put aside anymore and we had other things to talk about too

So please. It is inevitable that your friends will find somebody which will most likely mean the friendship won't be a priority for them but when that happens please just tell them how you feel about that, I promise that they will listen to you. Your friends still love you and most of the time they just don't realize that they're putting you aside when they're preoccupied with their love life. If you don't tell them they won't know what the problem is

Please feel free to draw, put stickers, use Canva, etc! Be as creative as you'd like, and write as much or as little as you want! Here is the google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16MCDIrenA7BI6EikxmnDjkjDP98xb5Cc?usp=drive_link

Deadline: 30th April 2024 Let's show our appreciation together! :DD

Working on something big. So in the meantime enjoy a redraw of one of my old pieces. What’s more fun than sad children 😂

I need more practice with expressions, so I might even make more expression sheets.

ON SIGHT NO (one) EXCEPTIONS

I do think Hunter is going to sacrifice himself in the finale. Specifically though I think he's going to TRY to.

One of the things that's made me think Tech is alive is that we haven't had the entire family truly together at any point - the whole show has been about family but they have never, ever been united as a full six person family. Someone is always gone, always missing, always sacrificed even though they have said over and over again that they don't want to leave their own behind.

And with all the heavy signaling around CX-2 he still looks very likely to be Tech. Sorry no one kills a guy that ambiguously and then accidentally puts a weirdly focused on assassin through several of the same scenarios and gives him a very close speech pattern just to be like "but in the end it was just some guy!" Like that's stupid, sorry to be blunt.

So. If CX-2 is Tech. And we get him back. And we finally have Omega back. And we have everyone on the same side again.

And then.

Hunter.

Tries to sacrifice himself for his family to make it without him.

Can't you just see Omega losing her shit? Don't you think she might go a little nuclear? Perhaps even find some of the force inside her to drag his ass back from the brink?

Hunter is going to try to heroic death and Omega is tired of watching it happen and she drags him back whether he likes it or not because this is the closest she's ever gotten to a complete family and she's not letting it go. That's my prediction.

reblog to EVIL BOOP the person you reblogged from >:3

i draw tech with streaks in his hair and um . yeah this is that

do me a solid and just reblog this saying what time it is where you are and what you’re thinking about in the tags.

a few crosshair drawings from the past months

This is the kinda of family I know in my heart they are

Its Omega care day.

Manifesting.

I just want a happy ending, PLEASE.

(Also Echo isnt here because he and Rex are just off screen happy that one more clone could be saved)

(Also Also, I just couldn't see him willingly hug anyone, besides Omega. I dont really see Hunter and Cross doing that either, but Tech was their Batchmate, so I'd imagine they would make an exception.)

"Twenty minutes later he’d made it back to his room with no memory of the journey and the taste of vomit stuck in the back of his throat.

No one asked what he’d done - it was an unspoken rule, never to ask - but Wrecker opened his arms and let Crosshair disappear into them without a word."

--Twelve Seconds by @eriexplosion

About a year or so ago I asked for fanfic submissions to be turned into comics! And this was one of them! I had actually started drawing this a year ago, but just now got around to finishing it!

It's a pretty heavy fic, but its short and really well written! Id suggest checking it out if your in angsty mood!
