Concept art of the Mandalorian looking out the canopy of the Razor Crest at another Mandalorian using a flight pack. Art by John Park and Doug Chiang, from StarWars.com

The Mandalorian looked at Grogu and shook his head. What had his youngling been thinking about? He was standing on the table in the cabin and waving his arms around and babbling. Din Djarin had listened to enough the babble to know that Grogu was speaking and not to himself. At least not completely to himself; it was like he was rehearsing a speech. Maybe he was…

Grogu looked up and noticed his dad standing right there staring at him. Staring at him just like a Mandalorian bounty hunter who was trying to save the galaxy from a return of the Empire. Wow. That couldn’t be good. 

“Grogu. What were you doing?”

Grogu looked up at his dad, he didn’t really have a choice because even on the table he still wasn’t anything like as tall as the Mandalorian, and shrugged. 

“Nothing? I don’t buy that, kid.”

Grogu looked affronted and frowned at his dad.

“No. That’s not gonna work either. Fess up now, or we won’t be going to visit the High Magistrate. You know what that means… no snacks from his office.”

Dank Farrik. His dad knew just how to trap him. Womp rats.

Grogu sighed. He began to explain, mostly using the sign language of the Sand people, what he’d been doing. He tried to be detailed without being boring. Din Djarin did not like boring stories.

“Let me see if I’ve got this right… you were thinking about when we met and that a Jedi would have done it better…a barefoot Jedi?”

The Mandalorian seemed miffed. Grogu wasn’t sure which detail bothered his dad more, that he thought a Jedi’s approach to problem solving might be superior to a Mandalorians, or that a barefoot Jedi might exist. Given that the Mandalorian had only ever met Master Luke and Ahsoka Tano, Grogu decided it must be the barefoot thing. 

Grogu began to explain to his dad again, just that one detail and why it seemed so important to him. Maybe that would make his dad feel better. He would have thought that a keen eyed, thoughtful, Mandalorian bounty hunter, best in the Outer Rim, would have noticed that Grogu was also a Jedi who was barefoot the vast majority of time. 

“Okay. I get it. This hooded Jedi with bare feet made an impression on you. Tell me. What color were their eyes?”

The Mandalorian’s tone was rather smug and Grogu didn’t entirely appreciate that sort of attitude. Like he thought Grogu made up details like that just to have a hero of the story who looked more like him. His dad had brown eyes. He had brown eyes. That was plenty in common.

Grogu took a deep breath and began to explain more about the whole thing, including the person’s eye color, because when Din Djarin had finally agreed to follow her back to his ship, she had pushed her hood back to get it out of her eyes while she pulled some pebble or stone off her right foot. 

“Green? She had green eyes. I see. Did you meet this person at the Jedi Temple?”

Grogu continued with the story. It was all hypothetical any way. He didn’t know why his dad was making such a big deal over it. 

They had just started heading to the ship, at a fairly fast pace when the Jedi handed Grogu to the Mandalorian. 

“Keep going. I’ll hold them off.”

She told them as she pulled her lightsaber off her belt. 

Grogu coo’d loudly when she powered it on. It had a strange iridescent rainbow of a blade that he’d never seen the like of. It was amazing.

“Buddy, Jedi don’t have iridescent lightsabers. No one does. At least not according to that holo-thing you found.”

Grogu gave his dad a look. A stern, if you want to hear the rest of the hypothesis you won’t interrupt me look.

“Fine. Fine. Say your piece.”

Din Djarin pulled out a chair and took a seat. 

Grogu picked up the threads of the story again.

“There’s too many of them. Take him to the ship…” The Mandalorian had called to their Jedi friend.

“No. You are responsible for him Din Djarin. Take him to Tatooine. He will be safe there. I can handle this. Now go.”

Grogu could sense that the Mandalorian absolutely didn’t want to do as she directed, but he had to make a choice. The Imps had noticed that Grogu was gone and it seemed like the other bounty hunters had as well. 

Combined, they were shooting at them with blasters as Grogu noticed streaks of red energy arcing in their direction. 

But this Jedi, with their bare feet, just stood their ground and parried every bolt that had a chance of threatening them. 

Then something strange had happened. A dust storm seemed to come out of no where and it filled the streets of Nevarro City with a torrent of sand and rocks and all manner of stuff. Grogu had heard of Jedi who were able to do that, but he’d never seen them in person. 

The next thing he knew, the Jedi was with them again, tugging at the Mandalorian’s arm and forcing him to run for the ship. She faltered once in her running, grumbled about Kyber crystals being everywhere, and then they were at the Mandalorian’s ship. It was a Razor Crest. 

“Dank Farrik. I hate stepping on these things.” The Jedi had pushed her hood back and Grogu noticed her green eyes and the delicate scars on her face. They looked like a star chart or constellation. 

“Go on. I have my own ship. I’ll be fine.” 

And they parted ways. Grogu with the Mandalorian and the Jedi by herself.

“Kyber crystals? Nevarro doesn’t have those things. And why would anyone just leave something as valuable as that lying around? And if she was a Jedi why didn’t she say something like ‘May the Force be with you’?”

Wow. His dad had come a long way from having to ask Master Luke if he was a Jedi, to knowing whether or not they had to declare their Creed every time they met someone new. Grogu laughed out loud at that.

“Okay. You’ve had your fun. You’re right about a couple of things. Luke would have handled that different from me. We can agree on that. But if he had met you first, you would have ended up on Ossus with him sooner and I probably would have gotten a new fob to go find the two of you. The covert wouldn’t have been dragged into anything and I would have never known that Moff Gideon was behind it all…”

The Mandalorian fell silent. Grogu wondered why. It wasn’t like his hypothetical story of the events was better than Grogu’s or even better than what had happened. It was different. Or maybe, Din Djarin had realized that his life was better with Grogu and there was nothing hypothetical about that. 

This is the Way.

[rise-my-angel]

I like that while its clear shes not a bad person, Bo Katan is incredibly biased, and full of secrets and hate. I mean shes dismissive of Dins beliefs and belittles him constantly only to boast about how she was born into this and then calls it nonsense.

But remember who she is also. She was not just born into a powerful family. She was raised here, knows exactly what might be down here and how to look for them, and used the darksaber before (also note she has never won it she took it from her sister). And then has the gall to look at Grogu "did you think your dad was the only mandalorian?" No. He didn't. Thats why you're here and Grogu is fucking scared of this place and wants his dad back.

Most of all though? Remember she helped do this. Bo Katan switched sides in the final days of Mandalore. Helped one side rise up only to turn heel and try to take them down in actions that led to Mandalores destruction. Thats why she knows the air isn't toxic and others don't.

Also don't like how much emphasis she makes to both of them about the power of birthright and claims the best Mandalorians were raised here. Din told Grogu all of them can trace their roots back to Mandalore one way or another and Bo Katan says that any worthy Mandalorians were *raised* there. I just don't like the way she seems to dismiss foundlings when they are just as if not more important to the Mandalorians.

I don't expect her to become a great person, but hey. Maybe seeing a fucking mythosaur in the living waters will teach her that mocking Din and his people for being religious might be the kind of unjustified superior attitude that caused people to stop following her.

Also being honest? Kind of irks me that she clearly knew what to expect going down there which is why she was fine. But heeded no such warning to Din despite knowing he's never been there before and wouldn't know what to expect. And the fact that she instantly spotted the darksaber and took no time to yeild it in combat over eveything she had on her. Like gee Bo Katan you were fucking quick to have any excuse to use it again weren't you?

[thewriterowl]

Blooms Din leaning against the wall next to Luke, flirting (disgustingly, horribly, happily and so dad like): " So do angels like you have names? "

Blooms Luke blushing, whimpering under his riddurs gaze, holding Grogu: "umm....but....you know my name?"

Blooms Anakin coming out of no where to force slam Din through the cement palace wall and down a couple of feet all while happily announcing he bought new crayons and coloring books for his baby boy and grandbaby.

Din gets if directly from Anakin. He is either worse or far superior tho...just depends on the mood.

Often times he is miserable.

Anakin would so kick him out of the way to see if Luke and Grogu want to hang out and do some sweet, fun things together.

I just love Din and Anakin fighting over Luke's attention so much XD

Top three star wars.. things? (Like series, movies, that kinda thing im not sure how to word it properly)

i think i get what you mean. like media?

THE MANDALORIAN OF COURSE!!!!!! the start of it all. i went years looking at sw tumblr and saying "psh. not me though. i will never watch star wars" and then i watched mando and well. here i am. i am, unfortunately, a star wars blog. but mando is so good!!!! the single dad & baby dynamic grabbed me by the fucking throat. it's like here take this middle aged man who hasn't had a close relationship in years after spending a majority of his life on the run, doing soulless bounty hunting work just to be the sole provider of his covert as they hang by a thread to survive. and then let's throw a baby at him. and watch him deny that he cares for the baby for episode upon episode yet still, inexorably, fall into a fatherly role. apparently the single dad thing has become a sw trope but i hold that din is the #Original, he is the blueprint, he is the moment. nobody else can do it like him. fuck hunter fuck obi-wan fuck everyone else. none of them can hold a candle to din&grogu

2003 clone wars. the first general star wars media i watched outside of mando. the animation is fucking phenomenal, the storytelling is concise and really great at showing these small snapshots of the larger war, and just. the atmosphere is so good. also it was the debut of both ventress and general grievous and i firmly hold that the 2003 cw versions of their characters are far superior to how they appear in any subsequent media. in particular, 2003 grievous my beloved. holy crapola he is wonderful in this show. the animation does him so much justice, the way he moves is hypnotic, like he's TWIRLING and SPINNING and DANCING on the battlefield and yet whenever he lands a jump, the ground cracks underneath him. he has this sense of such heavy weight despite also moving with such agility, it is sooo fantastic to watch. plus he's portrayed as an actual threat, like in his very first scene he kills what, 3? 4 jedi? and seriously injures 2 more? he singlehandedly traumatizes ki-adi-mundi? it's great. it's wonderful. and what's truly wonderful is that while the animation style does so much justice to the way he fights, it also depicts him in such a silly way. it's the tension between the two, this spine chilling jedi hunter vs. this absolutely silly rectangle guy. it's great. it's totally great. i love this show so much. also look at my 2003 grievous fancam while we're at it

lego star wars. like just in its entirety. i cant choose a favorite lego thing in particular because it's all great. i love how irreverent it is while still not being like... mocking? like it takes the best parts of star wars but doesn't take itself seriously at all. it's like my exact brand of humor, nevermind the inherent silliness of the lego designs

( ask me top 3 anything )

#ask #Anonymous #sw posting #funnily enough i actually still havent ventured that far out into sw #like theres the movies. dont care much for the movies #i read darth vader 2015. but uhm #that shit was so stressful and vaguely confusign that i would actually say i would rank a few movies above it #exccept. hm. actually. maybe only rots. maybe only rots above it #the art was nice though #WAIT ROGUE ONE.. ok. #lego sw still surpasses rogue one. if this was my top 4 then rogue one would be number 4 #but uhm. yeah other than the movies and darth vader 2015 and a few random comics that kinda sucked and i cant even remember #the name of . then like. thats really it #rots novelization too i guess. thats separate from rots movie right? idk. #i would say number 5 would be rots movie. 6 would be rots novelization #and then number 7 would be like. every other movie that i didnt list. among the PT and OT #bc i havent watched the ST lmfao #BUT YEAH . i really havent read or watched much all things considered LMFAO #and i keep wanting to but i just dont have the time or energy

Mandalorian S3 Finale

I got nothing. My medium lukewarm takes are below.

I think I lost brain cells watching it. I try and not take this series (Star Wars that is) too seriously because it's fucking dumb space magic and wizards with the trappings of sci-fi. So you just have to go into it with the overly logical expectations of hard sci-fi rules just switched off and enjoy the spectacle.

There is a reason Star Wars fans and Trekkies have sworn an unofficial blood feud over which of their fandoms is far superior for decades.

But I could not turn my brain off enough to get over how dumb that episode was. I legit spent half the episode laughing and telling myself how dumb everything was. Some of it was so dumb it was funny, some was so dumb it was infuriating and a lot of it was just so dumb I feel like my IQ has dropped from watching it.

I cannot convey how I'm feeling right now beyond that. I didn't hate it, I don't think? I sure as fuck did not love it and honestly this whole season has been a glorious fever dream of dumb fuckery.

Why is Grogu suddenly DIN Grogu with this random reversal of surname/given name?? It can't be a fucking weird Death Qatch quirk because we had PAZ VIZSLA and Vizsla is a canon clan name not to mention NO OTHER MANDALORIAN HAS EVER HAD THEIR NAME WRITTEN IN THAT ORDER. Fucks sake the Armorer even calls Bo Lady Kryze.

Did the writers forget their own main character's name??????

I'm so mad and so pressed and I can't not laugh because otherwise, I am going to flip tables.

EDIT: I just had a galaxy brain realization. I think Felony & Co. are deliberately doing this, knowing that we were so pissed off when he named baby Yoda Grogu that the Internet lost its mind. And now he was like “hold my beer. I’m gonna piss them off even more” just to watch the world burn. Because the internet is going to collectively lose their shit and talk about this for days and that’s going to drive up ratings even more. Or the more cynical take that we’ll be so pissed about this we don’t talk about the other dumb shit in this episode

Fucking hell, please let season 4 go back to their season 1 roots of having tired space dad cart his frog kid around collecting bounties.

Felony and his writing crew just need to stop trying to make huge spectacles of this show and strip it back down to what made it so popular in the first place.

I could go on a rant about the dumb shit from this episode like how a Mando jet pack and a dream apparently turns Axe into a fucking surface to air missile capable of clearing atmo and going to OUTER SPACE. Or how unbalanced Bo with one singular operating rocket would send her careening right into a wall because there's nothing to balance out the force of the thrust. Or the entire jousting in fucking mid-air bullshit which objectively looked cool and was so fucking dumb. And that's just me ranting on jetpacks alone.

I'm not going to do that because I know it will be picked apart ad nauseam by far more talented people than me and honestly I'll just end up getting more angry over the shitshow I just witnessed.

I legit am so dumb from watching this I immediately gaslit myself wondering if I'd titled this season 3 or season 4 because I could not for the life of me even remember how many seasons I have watched of this show at this point.

Everytime I see Boba Fett with his helmet off I just go 😠

I love Mr Morrison's face but Boba Fett is the kind of character who would turn around in his fully helmeted self and say 'This is my face." He literally says that in one of the comics where he murders some guy impersonating him to get more jobs.

And the potential reasons for him keeping his helmet on has so much storytelling potential; for example, he could really hate his face because one: only a reminder that he is a clone out of millions of clones, two: he is a splitting image of Jango, which hurts and yet is the only way he can see his dad again, three: he has more identity with the helmet than without; four: let us play with the "Who my father was matters less than my memory of him." concept. Does he see the countless boys his father doomed to be battlefield cannon fodder whenever he washes his face in the mirror, knowing it was only luck that he was chosen to be a son and not a trooper? Does he still try to delude himself that is superior to the average clone and shouldnt bother to harbor feelings of brotherhood, compassion or belonging to the people Jango regarded as livestock everytime he brushes his teeth? The quote implies he has already made up his mind about that but surely even the most selfish version of him has to struggle with seperating Jango's opinion of him and Jango's opinion of the clones, moreso after his dad died because there is no one reinforcing the idea that he is different or more special than the clones. Natborns around him sure dont care, he's as much clone as the one next to him and I bet that pisses him off.

Let it be known I am a whore for scenes where characters are driven to such rage by looking at themselves that they smash a mirror with their bare fist and bleed all over the sink.

In the boba fett junior novels, young boba fett slowly forgets his father's face as he travels alone, and one of the only mementos he has is Jango's helmet, which he gradually associates as his father's 'face', at least until he grows older I suppose. Not sure how this ties into my point but someone cleverer than I will figure it out.

The point I am clumsily trying to make is that Boba Fett is only supposed to take off his helmet for horrifically violent, emotional or vulnerable scenes, very similar to Mando, because he has just as many reasons for not wanting to show his 'real' face to the world. In universe, among millions of clones, he should feel his identity is strongest when his under a mask (ironic), with the helmet on, he is Boba Fett, he is the best bounty hunter in the galaxy, he is Jabba's favourite dog, he is Darth Vader's enforcer whenever paid enough. Helmet off, he is reminded that he has outlived his father, he is just another clone in a world that considers them subhuman, he is unrecognizable and can change identities like clothes (whats so strange about another of Jango's face around these parts?)

Is Boba Fett not Din Djarin's dark mirror? Where Djarin refuses to remove his helmet out of love and devotion to his heritage, is it not fitting that Fett wears his due to being repulsed by his origins?

Which Do They Prefer: Cookie Dough or Baked Cookies? (PP Characters Edition)

Din Djarin (The Mandalorian)

Din doesn't really have a sweet tooth, but when he does eat cookies he always goes for the baked ones. Because they're both safer to eat (he doesn't want the kid getting his hands on cookie dough) & safer to store on the Razor Crest (it doesn't have a fridge). He thinks that the blue cookies that Grogu sometimes shares with him are okay. He also likes the cookies that Peli makes for them whenever they stop at her place for repairs. (He would never tell anyone this, though). 💚

Javier Peña

This man is definitely on Team Baked Cookies™ & he just doesn't understand why anyone would prefer cold balls of raw dough over the warm & gooey goodness that comes out of the oven. Like he will get aggressively defensive about it & it's super funny to watch. Whenever anyone (aka Steve) teases him about how cookie dough is obviously the superior choice, Javi gets a really grumpy look on his face. A grumpy look that won't go away unless you hand him a warm & gooey cookie. 🍪

Frankie Morales

Frankie honestly doesn't have a preference - he understands & accepts both sides of the argument. As long as he has some form of cookie in his tummy, then he's all good. His absolute favorites though are the ones that his daughter makes for him (with a little help from you because she's too young to be working with an oven). Knowing that his baby girl made them just for him & seeing that big ol' smile on her face is even better than the cookies themselves. 😍

Agent Whiskey

Whiskey prefers baked cookies. Specifically those massive double chocolate chip cookies that are super melty & gooey (he's a big fan of chocolate). Whiskey loves to bake (& he's really good at it too) & the holidays is the one time of year (aside from the summer) that he absolutely goes HAM in the kitchen. By the time you get home from work in the evening, Whiskey has a bunch of cookies ready for you to enjoy (along with a handsome cowboy that has a couple of chocolate smears on his cheek). 🍫

Ezra (Prospect)

He really doesn't have a preference. I like to think of Ezra as a huge chocoholic, so whenever he's not on the Green, he wants to get his fix by whatever means necessary. For example, he could order a bunch of those cookies at the bakery that are about the size of your hand, or he could stock up the fridge with tons of cookie dough. (You've caught him rummaging through it more than once in the middle of the night & he always says, "A man's gotta enjoy life's simple pleasures whenever possible, Birdie."). 🌌

Oberyn Martell

He prefers baked cookies. I feel like if you were to eat cookie dough in Westeros (especially during that time period), you would get sick & die. So Oberyn opts for munching on baked cookies with Ellaria & his daughters. (Before putting them in the oven, they used special cookie cutters to make them look like the Martell sun). It's one of his favorite things to do with his girls in the (slightly) colder months. ☀️

Maxwell Lord

When you look at Maxwell Lord, you probably wouldn't think of him as a cookie lover (or anything sweet, really) but you're WRONG. The man has a sweet tooth bigger than his thirst for power (if that's even possible). He loves baked cookies, specifically the ones that his son makes for him. Just like Frankie, knowing that his son took the time to make them for him causes him to tear up. It makes him want to work even harder in order to make sure that Alistair can have a good life & that he can be proud of his dad someday. 😭

Max Phillips

He really likes cookie dough! Because 1.) he just thinks that they taste better & 2.) he's too impatient to wait for them to bake. When you're baking cookies, he always yells "BAAAAAAAABBBBEEEE ARE THEY DONE YEEEEETTTTTTT??????!!!!!!!" from his spot on the couch. I swear, TODDLERS are more patient than this guy. ❤️

Pero Tovar

Baked cookies. Same thing with Oberyn, if you were to eat cookie dough in his day & age, you'd get sick & die. He will be DAMNED if the thing that ends up killing him is f***ing COOKIE DOUGH. (Especially considering all that he's been through as a mercenary). He loves eating your freshly baked cookies next to the little fire in your cabin during the winter months. 🔥

Marcus Pike

Now you know & I know that Marcus Pike is a Baked Cookies Boy. No offense to cookie dough, but he just prefers the warmth & texture of actual cookies. He loves eating them after he comes home from a stressful day at work. (He also loves dipping them in milk). After you send your kids to bed on Christmas Eve, he's the one that eats the cookies that they laid out for Santa. (& he feels super guilty about it too even though he knows that Santa's not real). 🎅🏻

Javier Gutierrez

This guy is OBSESSED with cookie dough. I can tell just by looking at him. Sometimes if he's in the mood for eating something sweet while watching his movies, he'll eat a whole pack of cookie dough instead of candy. It's one of his favorite movie night snacks! 🎥

Joel Miller

Baked cookies. He doesn't have anything against cookie dough - he just thinks that cookies taste better when they're fresh out of the oven. He made them all the time with Sarah during the holidays & it was one of his favorite things to do with her. Now that there's a global pandemic, there's no time to do anything like that. Which makes the pastime so much better when Ellie finds some for the two of them to share after finishing their patrols in Jackson. (Ellie is on Team Cookie Dough, though). 🍪

[vagrantblvrd]

Another modern day au? But this time with more ridiculousness.

The one where Grogu is the sole witness to a Nefarious Crime who can identify the Nefarious Crime-doer and is placed in protective custody for his safety.~

But then Nefarious Crime-doer puts the word out they want Grogu dealt with, resulting in their right-hand man, someone named Gideon to oversee things on that front. But, because Nefarious Crime-doer doesn’t want things traced back to them, the job of ~deaing with Grogu gets outsourced.

Which is how Din, bounty hunter and generally speaking Very Tired Man, finds himself accepting a job that turns out to be more than he reckoned for, what with finding a tiny child at the end of it and all.

One who was in the care of federal agents who were gunned down by someoe else claiming to have been hire by the same mn, the one who Din had been told to refer to as “The Client” and apparently set a price on the kid’s head too tempting for anyone not squeamish about killing a kid to pass by.

He wasn’t told it was a kid, wasn’t told others had orders to kill the kid, none of this is what he signed up for and th sight of the dead federal agents, the cold look in the man in front of him tells him he’s already past the point of no return.

(Finish the job or let the man do his, and he’s still fucked because the damn federal agents.)

Din realizing he’s not a heartless bastard as he saves Grogu from someone who is a heartless bastard and takes Grogu and has to go on the run to keep him safe becuase he just killed a man and dear God, what did he just do???

(But then little Grogu and the sight of the other man about to shoot him, and there was really no other choice.)

Adventures! Shenanigans! Din and Grogu dodging people out to kill both of them as he realizes just how much trouble he’s gotten himself into!

But also, Kuil, Karga, Cara and all the others he meets along the way who become allies and friends he knows won’t sell him out.

And, you know. U.S. Marshals and other feds and whatnot looking for the kid and whoever killed the agents assignd to protect him and it’s just.

A lot to deal with okay? A lot.

Meanwhile, Luke is one of the U.S. Marshals tasked with finding Grogu and whoever took him.

There’s this whole thing where he’s the youngest on his team and the son of a legendary agent, he gets his fair of good-natured grief from his co-workers.

But this thing with Grogu is big, big news and a tskforce is put together and the good-natured grief he gets from the people who know him, have worked with him for years suddenly isn’t.

Nothing new there, Anakin Skywalker is a point of contention in the agency due to The Incident that happened shortly before Luke and Leia were born.

Corrupt politician and a powerplay, corrupt federal agents across several agencies and a conspiray theory that still affects those agecies to this day.

Also, the thing where Anakin left the U.S. Marsha service once things were over (with typical Skywalker Dramatics, Obi-Wan had told him laushing at Anakin’s long-suffering groan) and joined the private sector.

Didn’t actually mean to start a mini-exodus when he did, but, well. Charismatic and such, and he and Obi-Wan are fo-founders of a personal protection business that does quite well for itself thanks to its first client being a well-known a respeted politician and such.

(Luke loved hearing that part of the story as a kid, knowing everything his dad did back then had been for love of his mom.)

Luke could have, should have, gone to work for his dad and Obi-Wan, but there was a recruiter. Someone who talked up working for the U.S. Marshals and they need someone like him, and other things.

Anakin is like *sigh* because that’s pretty much how they got him too, you know? But you can bet he keeps an eye on things with Luke in case it turns out he and the others didn’t manage to rip out all the corruption on their way out.)

Luke’s got all that to deal with, a federal agency that’s still finding it’s feet all this time afterwards and...fellow federal agents who look at him and see a problem agent just like his father. (Don’t know the full story, think his dad should be in jail and all that and apples falling from trees, and anyway, he’s lucky to have his team and superiors who know better and it’s not that often he runs into problem like this.)

Anyway, Luke and this taskforce looking for Din, thinking he’s a heartless bastard looking to cash in with the kid - Grogu, according to the - but Luke is like.

He’s That Guy, the one who looks at the crime scene, reads everything they have on Din and goes, “Something doesn’t add up,” because of course he is.

His team’s used to that, learned to trust his instincts on things like that so instead of looking at Din like he’s just another common criminal, violent thug, they look the whole situation from a different perspective, that he’s trying to protect Grogu rather than cash in on him. (His death.)

But because of Luke’s history with the agency the rest of taskforce isn’t inclined to believe that, think Luke’s...who even knows, bubt they’re dismisive of his theories and aren’t subtle about it and there’s a new nesion between the teams on the taskforce.

As Din gets caught up in situation after situation and witness accounts and so on paint Din in a good light - more of the taskforce leans towards Luke and his team’s view on Din not being a bad guy here? But there are still holdouts, bitter about the hand Anakin had in the resturcturing of the agency, old friends and mentors exposed as corrupt and wasting away in jail and personal grudges and so on.

And then!

Luke checking on a lead, going to talk to one of Din’s new associates in  little town in the desert, a former soldier and a guy who runs a bounty hunting business and happens to be in the right place at the right tie to actually see Din.

Grogu’s with him, seems happy enough, not scared of Din, and Din is watching the kid like a hawk.

Right up until a group of guys show up and the shooting starts and it’s Luke’s day off, but he’sworking on the whole work/life balance thing, but is also trying to stay alive.

Also, hey, hi, M. Djarin, fancy meeting you here, as they end up taking cover behind the same overturned table, Cara and Greef grabbing Grogu and getting him the hell out of the line of fire, and anyway, anyway, what a lovely day, wouldn’t you say?

The thing where they have to flee together and Luke gets a little bit shot - nothing fatal, really, just you know.

Fashionably injured in which Din has to haul him to safety and some dingy motel somewhere and medical supplies from a gast station or pharmacy and Luke watching Din as he patches him up so he doesn’t bleed to death.

Calloused hands with old scars on his knuckles tuching him ~gently, with the kind of care that seems at odds with his checkered patch, and the man is all nerves because his situation gets worse every damn day he’s on the run with Grogu.

And now, okay, now he’s got a federal agent’s life in his hands, someone who probably thinks he’s the bad guy here, might put a bullet in him to keep from going to jail and it’s.

A lot, alright? The same it’s been since he took the damn job, set eyes on Grogu and ruined everything he’s worked for his whole damn life.

But Luke, okay. Luke is just wathcing him, relieved his instincts were right about Din because he had no reason, no reason, to help Luke out. Save his life, drag him to safety and the whatnot. No reason to risk being identified when he went out for medical supplies to tend to Luke’s injury, and yet he did.

The whole thing where Din’s just waiting for Luke’s people to bust in, haul him off to jail, but it never happens.

Not even when he falls asleep because he hasn’t gotten nearly enough of it the last few weeks , gives Luke the chance to call for backup, lock Din away.

None of that happens, although there is a moment the next day where Luke tries to talk Din into coming with Luke, trusting him to clear his name and take care of Grogu where he almost, almost thinks Luke means what he says -

But then the baddies find them again and it’s a whirlwind car chase that ends with a shootout and Din sneaking away when the cops show up and Luke has to explain that hey, no, he’s on their side and please don’t shoot him, he’s been shot enough for the time being, thanks.

More shenanigans in which Din and Grogu elude baddies and Luke (and his team, a few from the task force who are one their side) try to catch up to them only to be too late every time.

And then!

There’s a thing where the baddies get their hands on Grogu and Din has no choice but to call Luke for help, doesn’t care what happens to him so long as Grogu’s safe and it’s just.

A lot of Drama and Angst and this whole convoluted plan to draw the baddies out using Din as bait or whatever because he’s a loose end they can’t afford and it’s all very exciting and dramatic.

(Also, Luke making sure he or someone he trusts is with Din the whole time he’s with them preparing to get Grogu back, keeps him from running by just being there, someone he trusts.)

Exciting action climax in which there is shooting - so much shooting - and Daring Feats and also an Evil Monologue or two, who knows.

Din gets fashionably shot as well, makes a shiity joke about him and Luke matching now with the whole being shot thing what is wrong with him and is reunited with Grogu thinking it’s the last time he’ll see him and all.

Because Witness Relocation for Grogu and jail for Din and just, you know how it is.

But there’s Luke watching Din and Grogu, nd he’s thinking, you know?

Luke with connections he only clls on when things are Dire and never for himself, and anyway, anyway.

There’s a thing where Grogu goes into Witness Relocation until the trial and Nefarious Crime-doer goes to jail for a long, long time . Din doesn’t get tossed into a cell, although he does spend a lot of time talking to federal agents of all kinds before they let him go home.

And Luke, okay, Luke is Plotting.

Meanwhile, Din goes about his life best he can after the upheaval and chaos of the last few months.

All these little reminders of Grogu in his life in the form of a toy or shirt or somehing left behind, forgotten until he stumbles accross them and it’s all very Angsty for  bit.

But then there’s a job offer, this personal protectoon company and it doesn’t click in Din’s mind until he’s waiting for the interview that wait, wait.

Skywalker isn’t exactly a common name, and Boba mentioned something about this Anakin Skywalker who almost burned the U.S. Marshal service down over twenty years ago about a conspiracy and whatot.

(Boba meddles in Din’s life even though he’d deny it to his dying day, and he got the whole miserable story about Din’s adventures in keeping Grogu alive and that one federal agent who didn’t think Din was a heartless monster.)

Anyway.

Din gets called in for his interview - didn’t want to take it, but he needs a job and bounty hunting had already lost its shine before he met Grogu, and anyway. Boba insisted.

So he walks into Skywalker’s office, not sure what to expect, but it sure as hell isn’t Luke, and defintiely isn’t Luke and Grogu with an older man who must be Anakin smiling at the two of them as they ply some kind of game and Din really needs to sit down before he does something embarrasing as faint.

Which, you know. Perfect time for Luke to explain that with Nefarious Crime-doer in jail and his criminal organization torn up by the roots, there’s no reason Grogu has to stay in Witness Relocation.

That, circumtances being what they are, he’s up for adoption and would Din happen to know anyone interested?

(Luke has been busy, the last few months, okay. Very busy calling in favors and whatnot and it’s all worth it to see the look on Din’s face, gap-toothed smile on Grogu’s.)

Also, though.

Anakin has heard all about Din from Luke, and he has been looking for more people since business has been good, and Din is just.

Overwhelmed, because too much good happening all at once.

Luke and Anakin share this look because wow, yes, they know the feeling. Luke takes Din and Grogu out for lunch, go to a quiet, out of the way place to let the poor guy think over his options because he really hasn’t had the luxury to do so for a while now.

Grogu is delighted, because he missed the hell out of Din, and Luke’s been pretty great too, and after a while Din stops worrying and pays attention to that, to Grogu.

Sweet kid, really, and Din already knows he’d do anything for him. Adopting him would be the smallest of it.

As the job...he’ll have to think about it a little longer, uncomfortable with the thought Luke got it for him rather than him earning it, and when he eventually mentions that in another meeting with Anking a week or so later, Anakins is just.

“Well, alright then,” and lets Din prove why he deserves the job.

Anakin knows he does already, okay, from what Luke told him about the whole Situation when he was on he run with Grogu and saving Luke’s life and the praise Luke’s team and others have had for Din. But this is about Din needing to know he does, and he’s more than willing to give that to him.

And then!

Once things have settled down in Din’s life, once he’s got his kid and a good job and some semblance of stability for both of them, Luke is kind of just.

There.

Around Din’s work because of Anakin, and the business’ firt client is Luke’s mother, and also Grogu being all :(((((((( becuase he misses Luke, and Din hates it when Grogu’s :(((((((((, so.

Luke is around, and it’s a little awkward at first, takes Din a while to realize that okay, wow, yes, Luke is actually flrting with him and not just being his usual friendly self.

(Cara and the others just shake their head at him when he has that realization because seriously, okay, seriously.)

Anyway, anywy, awkward flirting and dates and a goodnight kiss where Din is like oh, no, because this relationship of theirs is serious and he does’t know how to do this, be a normal human being in a functioning relationship, okay.

(And yes, part of him knew it was serious before then, it hadn’t sunk in yet, and anyway, yes.)

Uncharted territory and all, but Luke is smiling at him and according to several reliable sources (Leia and Han among others) is a human disaster in his own right, so maybe they can figure things out together, you know?

Might be nice.

(It is, though, absolutely the nicest.)

Decide doing Translation this fanfic from ao3

https://href.li/?https://archiveofourown.org/works/30040782

Some are mistake because google translation can be wrong…

False proposals remain proposals

— Grrr... That fucking KID! I swear next time I'm gonna put my hands on him and finally put him behind bars!

The few policemen who made the bad decision to accompany Inspector Nakamori on his way out to the bar had no choice but to increasingly seclude themselves in their seats in the face of the shouts of their superior. The only person present who seemed unfazed by the din of the man was nothing more or less than the one who organized this small event: the private detective himself Kogoro Mouri, who under the pretext of "it's your birthday" could convince the inspector and some poor devils of the squad to accompany him to one of his favorite bars in the city. Rather the only one who did not need to be convinced was Nakamori. The poor man was so stressed that he had not caught the famous thief in his last robbery two days ago that at the first moment he was offered a jug of alcohol he had already halved it.

- Sure, sure! the culprit interrupted him from his meeting, passing his arm through the neck of the birthday boy. You can worry about that thief another day, tonight is a night to drink!

While the only thing Kogoro was most likely looking for was a mate to get drunk, the officers said the peers couldn't help but think there was something more hidden beneath that "working friends" facade. The detective did not bother to respect the inspector's personal space, not only hugging him with one arm but also giving soft touches whenever he recounted something or a light jolt when the man appeared to stop responding briefly. For someone like Nakamori who considered their space very important... this acting just left them dumbfounded.

Now that you thought about it, haven't you been acting a little close lately?

"Ah, Kogoro..." Nakamori spoke, drunk enough not to remember his companion's last name but sober enough to remember

The detective just mumbled a weak "huh?" before looking at his watch on his wrist. He had to blink a couple of times to stop seeing cloudy and concentrate on the device needles, 1 PM? No, that was-

"One in the morning?" exclaimed suddenly, the adrenaline rush getting him a little drunk. Ran's gonna kill me if I come back so late!

Ran...? the inspector mumbled in confusion before connecting the pieces. Ran was his daughter. He also had a daughter who was probably waiting for him at home. Damn it, Aoko's probably in a rage...

The young cops just felt sorry for them. Like the young people they were, they could still stay at the bar for an extra hour. They did not want to go home, otherwise they would have offered to accompany either man to their homes.

"I'd better take a taxi," Kogoro quickly took his things and prepared to leave, before being stopped by Nakamori.

— Ah, Kogoro, we have to go in the same direction, do you think we could share that taxi?

"I don't see why not," he nodded. Let's go have one on the street, Ginzo.

The officers watched as the two men marched in step, Kogoro again playing his inspector by guiding him with one hand on his back.

Between the three of them looked at each other.

"Hey, don't you think...

— ...it will be possible...

— ...that remotely...

— ...Our inspector and Sleeping Kogoro are dating?

No one at the station seemed surprised to see Nakamori holed up in his office dealing with a powerful hangover. From the moment he entered the building with a face indicating that he was more eager to stay in his bed sleeping than to listen to the complaints of his superior, there was no person in the precinct who wanted to approach because of the fear of irritating him.

A small group of officers had gathered just outside his office, whispering to each other what appeared to be the latest new news from the precinct. The superintendent of Shintaro Chaki, well known for being almost always in a bad mood, was already fed up with his subordinates spending more time chatting like old gossips than concentrating on their daily chores; so he took the opportunity to appear behind the group to repress them.

— What is happening here? asked, very upset about the situation.

"Ah, superintendent! exclaimed the quartet of police among surprised and scared. We were just sharing the news with everyone.

— News? What news?

- You don't know? Inspector Nakamori and Sleeping Kogoro are dating! They are so close that they are even called by their names without honorees.

Of all the gossip I could have heard, the fact that Nakamori had gotten a new partner after so many years was really down the list.

"Oh, oh, oh, my head..."

Inside the Mouri detective agency, Conan watched something amusing as Kogoro bemoaned his hangover lying on his desk. The poor man found himself half-disheveled and with his suit badly worn and wrinkled, he was still wearing the same one from the night before.

"You're an amazing dad." Ran was still quarreling with his father, just as he had barely managed to set foot inside the house. First you're going to drink leaving us alone with Inspector Megure, then I stay up late waiting for you to come back and finally you decide to come back almost noon without even leaving a message on the phone or answering machine!

Yes, Kogoro loved his daughter very much, but the only thing he didn't need at the time was someone yelling at him in the ear at full volume.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," she murmured as she massaged her temple. But I told you I don't remember anything from last night! I woke up an hour ago at a motel and I came straight here... I think my self yesterday was drunk enough not to remember where he lived and decided to sleep on the road.

The truth is that waking up there was a rather strange event. Few, very few, were the times when Kogoro did not remember how he had come home after having taken until he almost lost consciousness, but even on those occasions he always dawned in his comfortable bed. That's why it was so rare to have woken up in a motel relatively far from the agency, completely naked and also on the floor for having fallen out of a double bed. Worst of all, his body hurt. Moving, walking, anything was uncomfortable. And even if he was in his forties, there was no reason why Kogoro should feel sore after he had taken it.

"When I went to the front desk trying to pay for the room, the employee told me that I had nothing to worry about, that everything was paid for," she sighed. I wonder if anyone decided to guide me to a motel because he couldn't remember my address... he even bothered to fix everything.

Ran went on to berate his father, who simply tried to sink deeper and deeper into his desk to avoid feeling how every word drilled into his head. He almost breathed a sigh of relief when the agency's phone rang and, even if he was not in a position to take any cases, he immediately attended to escape even if it was an instant from his daughter.

— Detective Bureau Mouri, how can I help?

— Mouri-kun! a lively voice answered from the other side. I thought we were friends! I can't believe you didn't tell me something like this.

- Huh? answered in confusion. What the hell was Megure talking about? What was I supposed to tell you?

- Don't play dumb! -Inspector Megure's shout was so loud that even Ran and Conan across the room were able to hear it. How do you think I felt when I found out that one of my closest friends had started dating someone and he wasn't the one who told me?!

For one, two, three seconds.

"HUH?"

Ran had taken Conan to primary school and she was attending her own classes, so Kogoro was now alone at the agency. In theory he was to find himself alone, because in front of him, with his arms crossed and his frown frowned upon, a very annoying Ginzo Nakamori walked from side to side as if going from wall to wall would provide the solution to the problem in which they were.

"Then..." Kogoro began, making Nakamori stop for a moment to pay attention. Everyone in the police force believes that for some reason we are a couple.

"For any reason?" As I heard in the precinct, you couldn't keep your hands still! cried the inspector. Now my superior, Superintendent Chaki, wants me to take my "new partner" to lunch with him and his wife this Sunday!

Mouri snuck into his seat, looking to hide as much as possible from the elder's screams.

- W-but- why did you accept his invitation?

"I had a terrible hangover thanks to your departure last night! I could hardly tell what he was talking to me, I saw myself with no choice but to nod to everything he said. How do you expect that hours after I confirmed to my superior that I was dating, I would simply tell him that I didn't hear him for having the worst hangover of my life? Don't you know how unprofessional that is? I could be suspended!

The detective sighed. They were really in a difficult situation.

- Now what Inspector Megure said makes sense...said he.

"Huh?" What did Inspector Megure say?

- Ah! Well... apparently first he heard the rumors going around your division... And this morning I got a call from him saying that he happened to have to come early to the station and went by the Beika Motel, where he saw you come out first and within minutes of me from the place—he admitted something sad.

For a few seconds they both kept quiet.

But when I woke up in that room I was alone...

"Of course not!" I was just lying on the floor, probably because I fell somewhere in the night. That's why when you woke up you thought you were alone, you couldn't see me on the other side of the bed. Surely I woke up to the sound of the door when you left.

With a whimper of frustration, Nakamori dropped into one of the agency's sofas, too exhausted to think of all the problems that did nothing but pile up.

Everybody thinks we're dating, right? asked Kogoro, to which the eldest nodded. Then why don't we just go play along?

- Play along?

- You know! We had lunch with the superintendent and his wife over the weekend, pretended to keep going out for a couple more days and then we were done! Superintendent Chaki won't know you lied to him, Inspector Megure will continue to trust me, and the other officers will have something else to whisper about for the next two weeks.

Nakamori's first impression was to think that his companion had simply lost his mind. But the more he thought about his options, the only thing he saw possible was what Kogoro was saying. That showed how bad his situation was.

- Good! he resigned himself. On one condition. This will end as soon as possible after that damn lunch.

"Of course I do!" But I too must accept under one condition.

- But you were the one with the idea! Why should you demand something?

— But this must be beneficial to me too! "a sly smile was present on the detective's face." For all of us, we're just going out but there's nothing official yet, so... I want a great public proposal that can become a viral sensation! As today's young people would say: "Do it big or go home."

Nakamori was completely dumbfounded.

"Are you crazy?" Of course not! he growled. We don't have twenty years to do these things! Besides, why would someone like you care about something like that?

"Because," he interrupted, "you just have to think about this for a moment!" The fact that famous detective Mouri Kogoro starts dating one of Tokyo's most prestigious inspectors will be the most important news of the whole month! The public loves gossip," he continued. And, above all, gossip brings fame to those involved. My popularity will grow to the clouds!

For some reason, he wasn't surprised that someone like Kogoro had such a reason to stick with the plan.

— Also when we announce our separation, my mail will be filled with letters from nice girls who want to comfort me! In all those TV scandals it's always the fans who give support to their idols. I could even get an email from my dear Yoko-chan!

There was no choice but to accept.

Surprisingly, Ginzo's confession was a viral hit.

With the help of his daughter Aoko (who was more than happy to be able to participate in something like this) and his friend Kaito, the man managed to film a video in which, laden with gifts, flowers and alcohol, he appeared at the Mouri agency to declare his infinite love for the detective and how much he needed it.

By next morning all of Japan's newscasts were talking about the new Tokyo couple and how popular the two men had become.

Kogoro kept receiving letters from fans congratulating him on their relationship and a few of his love disappointments. Nakamori, meanwhile, was assisted by the detective to have lunch with Superintendent Chaki later that weekend. The man looked strangely happy during the event, even though at work he spent almost the whole day in bad temper it was clear he was quite sensitive to any love-related issue. He could even remember his words in firing the lovebirds in the afternoon: "I'm glad to know you can finally get by. I'm sure Mrs. Nakamori would agree that they make a beautiful couple."

Maybe that's why it was so hard to end that fake relationship after that. It just didn't feel right to do so soon.

The first few weeks Kogoro had taken the trouble to visit Nakamori when there was no customer to keep the farce and keep giving the impression of not-so-young lovers. At least that was his excuse at first, since one day he suddenly realized that the real reason for his visits was to spend as much time as possible with the inspector. More than staying home and watching some Yoko show, he longed more to travel to the police station and simply chat with his "partner" or accompany him until the moment he went home or had a beer at a nearby bar. Far from bothering him, Ginzo gradually began to appreciate every appearance of the detective in his precinct, even becoming disillusioned when he had no news of him for a whole day.

Within a month, when it was already quite safe to announce its breakup, another problem became present. And rather than being frustrated that they couldn't finish everything, deep down they were relieved.

"On the day of the sun, just as Artemis is at the highest point, I am going to take the jewel that is so jealously guarded in the heart of the city.

PD: I send a rose next to this notice to congratulate the inspector on his new relationship and to wish them well. I hope you both can attend my show to receive a surprise worthy of your love.

-Kaitou KID"

Kaitou KID's notices could not be kept secret for long, so just twelve hours after the police received it all the major Japanese media already announced the theft of the famous thief at the same time they used to revive the news of their romance and how they received blessings even from someone like KID. If they broke up now, they were only going to look bad.

The agreement was to wait a while longer after the robbery, until most had forgotten the subject and surprised them with the news of the separation.

But of course, nothing came out as they expected.

Boy, that white-gloved fucking thief had kept his word.

Kogoro ended up accompanying Nakamori to the Beika museum to protect the jewel and, even if he did not finish accepting it, because it had already become a custom for him to see his "partner" work. For some reason he loved to see how the man could control his squad with ease, admired the dedication he put to his work and really left a warm feeling in his chest when in his evening talks drinking at a Nakamori bar he confessed to him that there were few things he loved as much as his work. As promised, Kaitou KID showed up at midnight and stole the jewel in front of the entire police squad and mocking all the security measures taken. At the time of his escape, the thief activated a device that covered the museum's entire main room of confetti and colored papers, raining down even different types of colorful flowers. A bouquet of red roses fell right in front of the inspector, accompanied by a caption reading: "I wish you happiness." and signed by the typical KID cartoon stamp.

And, far from everyone forgetting their relationship, that event only served to make Japanese people want to know more about them and their personal lives. On several occasions the poor men had to deal with reporters and journalists who went to look for them at work or their home in an attempt to get an exclusive interview with one of the two most popular men of the moment. Of course Ginzo, being the professional he was, was always looking for an excuse to politely refuse and get rid of the annoying journalists.

Instead Kogoro...

"Why the hell did you agree to do that interview?" the inspector roared, whipping both hands hard at the desk where Kogoro worked.

- She was a very pretty girl! How could I refuse to receive it? he replied fearfully, aware at the time that perhaps giving an exclusive would not have been the best idea.

"But now all of Japan thinks we're getting married!"

Maybe during the interview the lie got out of hand...

- Sorry, sorry! he apologized over and over again.

Ginzo sighed. Now there was no chance of ending the farce and not being left as the biggest con artists in the whole country. He watched Kogoro give his speech about how he regretted talking to that girl, but he didn't really pay attention to what he was saying. For a few moments he let his mind wander.

Was this fake relationship worth breaking up?

Even if he was the one who was against the idea at first, at that moment the continuation with the detective didn't sound so bad. It could be a little loose, alcoholic, lazy, lazy... several of those were synonymous, right? But by interacting more personally with him over the last few months he had managed to see it in a new light. Aside from his daughter and a few co-workers, Nakamori now longed for someone else's company. Suddenly all the moments with Kogoro stopped being a nuisance to become something I was looking forward to. The subtle displays of public affection had ceased to be embarrassing to feel more special. And the congratulations they received at some point began to leave a warm feeling in his chest.

Would it be possible that...

Kogoro was shocked to receive a kiss on the lips, shutting his monolog instantly and covering his face with such intense red that anyone could mistake him for a tomato. Within seconds Ginzo parted, also blushing and breathing somewhat agitatedly.

- I'm withdrawing my condition. I don't want this deal to end anymore.

The detective still didn't know what to say, barely able to process what had just happened.

All I knew was that I agreed with the inspector.

— Do those journalists want a wedding? Then let's give her the best wedding in the whole region.

Before he could even give an affirmative, Nakamori had jumped at him again. And far from putting him away, the game followed.

The Mandalorian Chapter 11; the rewatch edition

I have found a bit more enthusiasm for this one on the rewatch, so here goes!

- din snapping ‘I’m trying my best here!’ in a vaguely annoyed tone as his entire ship is going up in flames around him because he mostly doesn’t get angry as much as sulky... the height of cinema 

- I love frog husband’s clothes, because they’re in a very similar style and colour scheme to frog lady’s but also incorporate the knitwear we see on the people of trask, so it both underlines his belonging with her and implies that he’s been on this moon for quite a while, they may have been apart for some time  

especially his scarf is a darling detail and there’s a bit of contrast in texture to it next to his wife’s, it’s nice. he’s wearing a similar kind of vest to what we see on the fishermen later, too 

- I think my favourite part of this entire episode (well second after din cradling the baby against him after nearly drowning) is just the design and Vibe of the planet and especially this harbour

for one I LOVE that it’s shown that even in the middle of the day it’s dark enough that the electric lights are still on when it’s overcast (it reminds me a bit of norway during the winter, actually, when dawn just never quite breaks and then slinks off in embarrassment before it’s even noon). and there’s also the... sails? nets? hanging around looking almost like flags, which are very Aesthetic but god knows what they’re for. maybe for drying fish on in the summer? 

I think the building in the distance behind frog husband’s back here is a lighthouse? or it could be one of those towers for loading you see when they scout out the empire ship too, I suppose!

and one for my strange obsession with Texture on this show: these fabric-covered crates!!! they look exactly as dingy and moldy as you’d expect them to be in this climate, I wonder what they’re for (& I vaguely want to touch them) 

- from the sound of it din’s vibroknife is uh ‘on’ when he pokes the squid thing, and he also goes for the tentacle the furthest away from the baby <3

proof the calamari flan have been scratched up a bit during all that time in din’s pockets! (the attention to detail in this show sometimes istg) 

- this is 100% me reading too much into things again, call the overthinking police I’ll do my time meekly lol, but the boat looks a little bit like the mudhorn signet from this angle: 

again din keeps his hand on or sooo close to his blaster in this entire scene, he knows this is sketch as all hell 

a) once again I want to praise the effects team for how GOOD the aliens look in this episode holy shit and b) the hell is this dude wearing on the straps of his overalls tho 

- the dude mando (axe woves) uses his little... wrist launcher thing to shoot with to finish two off the fishermen, so my theory that they can be loaded with other things than the whistling birds for slightly less effective use (maybe without the level of honing we’ve seen din’s be able to do?) is looking good!

- din actually has quite good form when diving into the water, I’m guessing he can swim at least tolerably when not in full armour, being stabbed at from all directions, having just had his son eaten by a sea monster and also being trapped in with said sea monster (I’m a strong swimmer and I can tell you that there’s a reason they make you swim with clothes on from time to time to see how hard it is, it sucks. with metal plates strapped all over you as well? yeah good luck) people don’t tend to hit the water that gracefully without some kind of training in my experience lol. might be some of the training with the jet pack has carried over too, considering he throws himself off that cliff in chapter 12 with similar confidence?

it’s interesting that they’re once again showing us a threat where the armour doesn’t help and even hinders him. we’re so used to the ways it can make him near-invincible, but it can also drag him down (literally, in this case. aha ha ha. well if I’m not here for my own entertainment then what am I here for honestly)

- din’s voice sounding like he’s just on the verge of crying as he cradles the baby (and the sound he makes as he realizes the baby’s alive) is my kryptonite, turns out. fucking breaks my heart into tiny pieces every time, I would die for this man and he wouldn’t let me

- in support of din’s paranoia: so far this season we haven’t been able to go five minutes without someone talking about peeling the precious beskar off a mandalorian corpse, I can see why his mind was primed to move in one particular way there

- I think the fabric of din’s cape has been treated with something that makes it waterproof; the water seems to pearl on top of it rather than soak in! can you imagine how heavy it would get if it did absorb water tho christ

(a bit hard to see at this size but that’s what it looked like to me close up anyway! could also be that it’s wool and that’s why it looks that way but I prefer an elaborate sci-fi explanation here, because it doesn’t look particularly weighed down afterwards) might also explain why he doesn’t seem worried about it catching on fire when he uses the jetpack haha, maybe this is something the mandos do with fabric they’re going to use for a long time 

I also enjoy part of the gambeson/undersuit thing poking up from under the shoulder pauldron and cape; I think this is about as disheveled as we’ve seen him since immediately post-mudhorn 

- the sound mixing in this scene, where din’s breathing is layered a bit over everything else so you almost feel like you’re in the helmet with him listening to what the others are saying........ oh my GOD, it embeds you so deeply in his POV but so subtly 

- not to be biased or anything... but din and the armorer’s armour design is so vastly superior to these guys it shouldn’t even be a competition lol 

din looks like an honest to god knight in shining armour except also sci-fi western and the armorer looks like a fucking war goddess from a time beyond memory; the clone wars mandos look like high end cosplayers (eh maybe it’s just my dislike for the boobplates that has me so 😒 lol. also a lot of dudes were very shitty about that whole thing and I don’t say anything but the ‘vaguely-concerned will remember this’ telltale message pops up in the corner every time) 

moment of saltiness over: I do like the differentiation between their individual character designs 

the differences in body type and helmet design is nice! they look like a unified team, but with individuality. I suspect the ladies have those belts and their armour plates on the hips instead of the front of the thighs to emphasize the ‘female’ silhouette, which. okay fine whatever

- bo katan looks very pointedly down at the baby after saying ‘a group of religious zealots who want to return to the ancient ways’ which makes me VERY nervous for reasons I can’t quite articulate

- the mournful guitar version of the mando theme as din watches the sunset...... hmmmmngh (this might be some Symbolism happening to us folks strap in for the identity crisis he still hasn’t processed) 

- I Cannot get over din being so unimpressed by and uninterested in bo katan’s ‘retake mandalore’ sales pitch from literally the first moment dfhasdkjfhsad sorry lady kryze this man just does not do main quest shit, he’s all side quests all the time and that’s why I love him  

- as someone who after chapter 8 wrote a whole-ass fic that was wholly & exclusively about din telling the baby he’ll always come back for him... some of the shit he’s been saying this season does feel like it’s been written to mercilessly victimize me, personally and specifically 

- guessing this structure in the background is the traffic control tower! doesn’t really matter, I just thought it was neat

- this part of the soundtrack is called ‘ship o hoj, mandalorians!’, which I found incredibly charming haha (it’s ‘ship ahoy’ except how you write it in swedish, good one herr göranson)  

- bo katan is vague about who exactly the new mand’alor would be if they took back mandalore to begin with, she doesn’t specify she is planning to be the ruler until she’s already got din on the ship and in no position to refuse to help. gotta respect the grift at least lol  

I do love her voice, though, it reminds me a bit of jennifer hale as shepard

- “I need to get back to my ship, with the foundling” your honor I uh love him so fucking much 

- frog lady stroking the baby’s back a bit as she holds her hand behind him to make sure he doesn’t fall backwards while playing with the tadpole ;___________;

and also frog husband and frog lady reaching out to hold hands and frog smooching as din and yodito leave ;____________________________________________;

- when din says the exasperated “mon calamari. unbelievable” line, the baby makes that little blowing a raspberry sound he does as if to agree ‘uh-huh unbelu -- unbelly -- unbelievable dad smh’ and it is very very adorable 

- there’s quite a bit of Stuff in the concept art that didn’t make it in this time around; I wonder if maybe they cut some stuff for pacing or whatever and that’s why this episode is so short? water leaking into the cockpit of the razor crest, something that looked a bit like whaling going on on the docks and more spaceships taking off (maybe there were originally meant to be some smaller ships defending the big empire one?), there’s quite a bit here

Any headcanons on Paz? (I just think he is neat)

PAAAAAZ. Paz, the beloved. He deserves headcannons.

So Paz is a tamer version of Wrecker (from the Bad Batch for anyone who has watched it). He is very educated and well spoken, being a Vizsla, but he loves fighting, explosions, and his blasters/plasma-thrower. He wants to fight at all times but will, though with a sulk, be political when he has to be.

He is very traditional. Sometimes to a very bad fault, this is more so from his Vizsla-upbringing along with a bit of the covert. He is not fond of outsiders. He believes firmly in the Way (probably more so than Din) and has a superiority complex.

However, he adores kids (any kids, give him a kid--he wants to be a dad badly), and a child is never at fault and never should be harmed, whether they're in the Way or not. He will protect a child with his life. Though tradition and history is incredibly important, blood does not matter to him like it does to other Vizsla's. Would he like the Darksaber? Sure. Does he challenge Din for it? Big no duh. Does he challenge it for the saber or just cause he wants to fight? Probably the latter. In the end, does he accept Din as the true wielder? You better believe it.

Paz has a boisterous temper. He gets loud, he'll curse, he'll throw punches, he'll provide threats...and then he just sorta lets it go. He hold grudges forever against those who does his Clan wrong. He'll hold grudges against Clan--but more to the point he'll never let them forget things. He can be a merciless big brother type. "Hey Din, remember that time you worked for the Empire? Remember what that did? Remember? Remember how I saved your ass? Hey, remember? Talk you stupid pipsqueak!"

To sum that up, Paz loves being annoying.

But he is also incredibly loyal. He would, without a doubt, be Din's most trusted advisor and guard. He would serve Din as Mand'alor without any question (unless he is in an annoying mood and they're able to act like brothers).

Paz adores Grogu. He battles Boba for position of favorite uncle. He and Boba get along horribly well. They team up to make Din suffer often.

Paz is fine with Kryze...they get along well enough but they're not close. He and Koska are bros. He had a crush on Fennec for like a day after she kicked his ass (he loves submissive men but dominant women--Din being the only exception when they had a few physical flings when they were younger; which I see as a possibility. Both of them were dominant...which is why didn't work for long). But Fennec is either gay, aroace, or with Boba (and Cobb).

His next crush (and a growing crack pairing fave of mine) is Leia. He wants Leia to step on him. You know how people got over Dommy Mommy 9ft Tall Vampire Lady from Resident Evil 8? That's Paz with Leia...only Leia is under 5' and Paz is probably 6'3-6'4.

As much as he hates to admit it...Paz adores Luke. He wants to hate the Jedi...but the guy is too much of a feral moron to not love. Then the fact he is like a thrice (or more??) over orphan/foundling, is really nice, probably compliments Paz, and is just a happy guy...it's impossible.

It also helps that he asks Paz to sneak out with him to go speeder-racing, drink themselves sick at cantinas, gives him info on Leia (hey, Leia can have two husbands, she's got two hands), and lets Paz throw him at enemies...they become really good friends.

It causes Din so much panic.

Paz is just this balanced, amazing warrior with a bit of an idiotic streak that really shines with other idiots.

You are so nice 😭😭

If you could send me Din spooning belly rubs I’d be well happy. Plus come Grogu being cute cause dam I’m a mess RN

😭😭😭😭😭

Ooooh that sounds amazing right now 🥺🥺

our boi Din already loves spooning (he’s totally good to be either the big or little spoon, he just loves the contact) and anytime you ask he is there just diveboming the bed in his efforts to get to you as fast as possible

he’s so warm it’s unfair. he always runs hot, so expect lots of shirtless cuddles 🥺 he tucks one arm under the pillow and the other around your waist, and he just buries his face in your neck, cause he likes to leave little kisses there and he loves the soft noises you make

he’ll ask you to show him where it hurts, and he’ll gently rub at that spot for hours. he’s v dedicated after all and he rlly just wants u feeling better!

and maybe grogu comes to find the two of u because ur not where you normally are, and he just pulls himself up onto the bed, and he gets all excited cause hey! there are his parents! he’s happy!

he’s babbling and all excited and Din can immediately see his son is about to just launch himself at you so he very quickly warns him, “careful, ad’ika, buir isn’t feeling well right now. we have to be gentle.”

and grogu tilts his little head and looks at you all big eyes and droopy ears and just very softly coos and puts his lil hand on ur belly and tries to follow his dad’s movements cause he wants u to feel better too!(he gets lots of cuddles for that)

even though you’re feeling bad, Din and Grogu are gonna do their best to make u feel better with their superior cuddling skills and belly rubs 🥺🥺

#asks #anon #whoops here’s a lil Drabble #soft 🥺

and rey skywalker :)

thank ♥

First impression: who is she??? and I think I'm in love???? (once again during the teaser of tfa when I went to see botfa xD)

Impression now: boy did she deserve better than the story she got fuck you disney lucasfilm there was so much potential

Favorite moment: I really like the ending scene of tfa. shame we never got to see what happened after

Idea for a story: I kinda wanna write an epilogue fic for the return of hope where she and rose are married^^

Unpopular opinion: has every right to be as powerful as she is, no matter what idiot dudebros say. there doesn't have to be a big reason why, just let her be. every male character is allowed to be as powerful as they are without any huge explanation and it's a huge double standard that female characters always need a reason

Favorite relationship: I'm not gonna get out of the reyrose pit I'm in~ and I love her friendship with finn and poe (especially in the canon in my head which is the superior canon), as well as her relationship with her dads, lando and luke^^ (heck let's throw tio din in there too why not) and also her relationship with han and leia and chewie

Favorite headcanon: rey is a lesbian and this is a hill I will die on. I will also die on my rey calrissian-skywalker hill

send me a character and I'll do this
