During the Clone Wars, the Bad Batch is tasked with a variety of missions across the galaxy. An unexpected addition to their team throws a wrench in the mix, particularly for Tech, who finds a particular connection with the disillusioned Padawan-turned-mechanic named Vel. Let's be honest... this is a slow burn, cheesy romance with just enough immersion in the Star Wars world to give us all a little vacation with one of our favorite clones. No smut, just PG-13 romance and adventure. It's like a mix of Pride and Prejudice and the Jim and Pam dynamic from The Office.
Also, I did my best to keep a steady plot line and tried to think of all the potential plot holes or questions or whatnot, but ultimately, this was just an excuse to indulge in imagining a little romantic adventure for Tech. So forgive any inconsistencies or inaccuracies and enjoy the ride. ;)

To Heal Poignancy ■ TECH - The Bad Batch ■
poign·an·cy /ˈpoin(y)ənsē/ noun the quality of evoking a keen sense of sadness or regret. The Clone War had come to an end. The Jedi Rebellion had been squashed with the Clone troopers executing the Jedi. Unfortunately, the so called "Jedi Rebellion" had caused some casualties. The Empire was cementing its place as the new government of the galaxy, and with it comes a new senator of Naboo. The senator will help transition Naboo from the Republic to the Empire, but not without a few challenges and secrets of her own. Not only did she have to juggle her new duties as senator, but also her grief that threatens to consume her at any moment. She will meet a certain squad of deserter clones along the way, but are they friend or foe? Can they help her heal and teach her to move on, or will she simply self-destruct on herself and everyone around her? These deserters seem to bring trouble whenever she's around. Or perhaps the title "Senator of Naboo" is cursed. ---------- "Not even the stars can compare to your shine."

Ambassador
If you want to read a slow burn about Crosshair, this is for you. It is completely cannon compliant and fun to read if you have seen the first season. It fits into the season as if it was always a part of what was happening. What if Crosshair stays with the empire because he has more there that just being a good soldier to come back to? Written in novel format based on Season 1 of the Bad Batch, this is a platonic romance that dives into the darkness of what Kamino has done to the clones and what the future holds for them after Order 66 and the enactment of War-Mantle. As an author, I enjoy looking deeper at the issues of interpersonal drama woven together with politics. A story about Crosshair and his journey fits that quite nicely. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Story Description: The war was over, but the danger of the future remained. As the Clone War came to a close, Ambassador Alanja Rampart, the sister of Admiral Rampart, is tasked with learning the truth of the dark plans of the Kaminoans. To her horror, Kamino is far darker than she could have ever imagined. Her only comfort among a sea of cloned faces is CT-9904-Crosshair. #1 starwarsthebadbatch #1 crosshairxoc #2 crosshairbadbatch ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fanart available on Instagram: @regina_au_mundi ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Regina au Mundi is my fanfiction pen name, and I am a published author in the Young Adult genre.Complete

Off to a Great Start (Adventures!AU Book 1)
While sitting in my room in April 2020, vibin', I'm suddenly launched into the Clone Wars universe and find myself on a world in the Outer Rim roughly 5 months after the Battle of Kamino. Salt and self-awareness of fanfic tropes ensue, but I soon realize I have bigger problems; the Bad Batch is after me to help them on a mission. Not only that, but this isn't exactly the Clone Wars I remember. Why are they after me, you ask? Good question, let's find out together.Complete
