i am putting this in my mouth
Phee making a scene at the reaping is so painfully accurate oh my goodness
will ignore the fact that i tried to work out who was who in the ‘family’ section with the bad batch and got phenomenally confused but oh well 😭
love love love this and i 100% am gonna re-read the hunger games because of this
Been on a bit of a Hunger Games kick lately (as I had my annual Hunger Games movies marathon and am currently in the process of finally reading Sunrise of the Reaping) so I decided, why not do a Silly Squad Hunger Games AU?
It's like we're back in 2012 baby!
For the sake of the AU, I decided not to make the Batch brothers since they couldn't all be reaped from the same district. I hate to separate them, but it had to be done 😔
I had previously thought up a Bad Batch Hunger Games AU and how that would go with them all being siblings, but I didn't write it down and forgot how it went </3 But I can guarantee you that it was angsty as fuck.
Who do you think would win the Hunger Games? My money is honestly on Echo or Tay honestly.
Art and tribute templates made by me :P

I LOVE THIS AHRKWNSLWNS
malfunctioning and going feral omg
TBB X EPIC - Pt. 1
Nothin' like combining two fixations into one.
Kid you not, after the Ithaca Saga was released, I couldn't listen to anything else until like a day ago. And even then what I listened to was other songs from other sagas.
Anywho! I've had this AU idea in my head for a while now (like sometime in November) and now that the whole musical has been officially released, I had the motivation to put the idea onto digital paper.
So, without further ado, here is the first bit of:
Hunter -> Odysseus Omega -> Telemachus Echo -> Athena Tech -> Tiresias Wrecker -> Polites Crosshair -> Eurylochus NOT PICTURED: Batcher -> Argos
I tried to make the characters match up as much as possible, but some are more fitting than others. Don't think about it too much.
Pt. II - The Baddies Batch Pt. III - The Bad Guys All - Final Part
Hunter as Odysseus for obvious reasons
He's the dad and the captain/sergeant of the group who'd do anything for his family
I'm sure we would've seen him go full Monster™️ just to get Omega back in S3 if the plot had called for it
His little headband can be a wreath :)
Sure he's not as cunning as og Odysseus but oh well
No idea who Astyanax would be though
Echo as Athena because I wasn't sure where to put him originally
For the longest time I thought about Fennec being Athena but then realized I didn't have Echo as any of the characters so I had him take her place instead
He helps out/trains Omega as Athena does for Telemachus - or should I say, she takes him under her wing?
Then I realized it somewhat fits because Echo is a strategist much like Athena
Wrecker as Polites because they're rays of sunshine who could do no wrong
It is hilarious to picture him singing Polites' part in the musical though because Steve's voice is so high and very much not what Wrecker's singing voice would sound like
That's literally it - I'm so sad that my favorite gets killed so early into the musical :(
Tech as Tiresias because he's all-knowing and not-so-good at seeing
Didn't know where else to place him
Fun fact! "No Longer You" is my favorite song from the entire musical
Crosshair as Eurylochus because of the falling out he has with Odysseus (i.e. Hunter) despite how close they are
Makes poor choices that they genuinely believe are justified
Value loyalty and transparency and when that's broken, so is the trust and relationship they have with the person who broke it
Like with Wrecker, it's funny picturing him singing Eurylochus' parts because Armando's voice is so deep
Omega as Telemachus for the obvious reason of being Hunter's kid so by default she gets the role
She's got Telemachus' passion and strength though - albeit if she's still naive and in need of a mentor
Batcher gets to be Argos too
