Nothing bad happens AU where little 11-13 year old Ezra comes back from his Gathering with the Gunsaber and Jocasta Nu decides that this means he’s the true heir to the lightsaber rifle. There was a prophecy or something, idk. But obviously she can’t just give this child a high powered ancient weapon. Not without the proper training anyway. She takes it upon herself to kidnap little Ezra anytime he’s in the temple for Archivist training.
Meanwhile, Mand’alor Jaster Mereel finds out about the Jetii’ad with a gunsaber and decides he wants to adopt the boy. Now in addition to trying to break into the Archives (he wants those ancient Mandalorian texts dammit!) he keeps ambushing Caleb and Ezra for some light kidnapping forced adoption.
Caleb would just like these old people to stop trying to steal his padawan. Jango would like his dad to stop trying to adopt a preteen because “Buir you’re over 100 and you need to charge your hoverchair, get back here!”
There’s a perpetual tug of war between the wizard librarian and the elderly warrior king over this one child. It only gets worse when Ezra figures out the lightsaber rifle has a shotgun setting.

I love the idea of two of the best remaining lightsaber duelists in the galaxy being Kal “haven’t been formally trained since I was 10 and uses my lightsaber like a fucking broadsword for fun” Kestis and Luke “Formal training? Lmao?” Skywalker. Obi-wan’s force ghost is just watching them spar and cringing into a separate plane of existence every time they whip out a blaster
you know it's bad when anakin skywalker's padawan is the one living jedi who still knows what a lightsaber form is

Top five reasons you (yes, you) should watch Star Wars Rebels:
Immaculate found family energy—these characters have a home together. They know each other’s strengths and weaknesses and support one another in achieving the things that are important to them, and their relationships drive the show in a way that feels incredibly genuine.
Character depth—Rebels genuinely has some of the best character development of any Star Wars property I’m familiar with. Each of the characters gets a chance to grow in some way, whether that’s gaining perspective of the world or understanding something new about themselves. They are well fleshed out and consistent. It’s also such a cool look into both what it meant to be a Jedi in the rebellion era, between iterations of the Jedi order, and what it meant to not be a Jedi but still fight in the rebellion. I love that Rebels tells both stories and doesn’t favor one or the other.
Quality Lore—Rebels has a clear trajectory: you get to watch the cast progress from being one of many isolated rebel cells to helping create a unified rebellion. And yet, the show never loses sight of its roots, and the heart of the show stays grounded on Lothal, the planet where it began, and Lothal becomes something of a symbol throughout the show. Also, in terms of broader Star Wars lore, SO many important items or people have their stories told—you get lots of nods to or arcs centered around the darksaber, the mortis gods, the rebellion, darth maul, and more, all of which enrich the experience of watching a lot of the other movies and shows.
Cool visuals—I know a lot of people are turned off by the animation style, especially the saber size, and wish it was like Clone Wars. But Rebels honestly has really beautiful art, and you see a variety of cool planets along the way (Lothal is especially pretty imo).
Compelling villains—This is big for me personally, because to me, Star Wars thrives most when it has a good villain—think Vader and Palpatine; think Maul and Pong Krell. And Rebels has multiple villains who are believably threatening and also work incredibly well in terms of adding to the plot.
Give Rebels a chance; it’s truly incredible, and also just so genuinely fun. Whether you’re a fan of TCW who was thrown by the animation or a fan who just watched Ahsoka and wants to learn more about these characters or a fan who hasn’t dipped into the tv shows, you should ABSOLUTELY watch it. I promise you get used to the sabers being animated differently, and that the characters continue to gain depth throughout.

honestly if those companies that made lightsabers made ezra's gunsaber that just shoots nerf darts I'd be very happy but also a menace

Since Ezra is clearly not taking his original lightsaber back, I either want one of two things
1. For him to rely solely on the force like he seems to be doing already because it’s pretty cool and it’s kind of hilarious to have one ‘Jedi’ who is barely force sensitive and one who is really force sensitive and doesn’t use a lightsaber
2. Gunsaber 2.0

There need to be more gunsabers. This is a message from a concerned citizen.

If Tech had to build himself a lightsaber, he’d build a gunsaber. Two gunsabers. He’d dual wield gunsabers. Huyang would be so distraught—

who are the most chaotic sibling duo Luke and leia or Ezra and Sabine
they're all equally chaotic, but Luke and Leia at least make a pretense of being a wise jedi master and a noble senator-princess. ezra and sabine make 0 effort to hide their chaos and regularly start dumpster fires for fun
