Hi Spud, for the writer ask game:

1, 12 & 17 💚

Hey Jessica! Thank you for sending me some numbers aaah!! 💖

1.     Do you listen to music when you write?

It honestly depends on what I'm writing! Sometimes I love it and it helps me get in the zone but I think if I really need to focus then I tend not to and play 10 hours of patio rain or whatever heheh. I also love bardcore too, because it's kind of familiar but with no lyrics it isn't too distracting!

12.  Describe your perfect writing space

Somewhere with natural light, lots of books around me, maybe a crackling fire and infinite coffee. That would be a dream! I have two of those things (natural light and books) when I write at my desk in my bedroom so halfway there!

17.  What writing habits or rituals do you have?

I kind of go through phases depending on what I write. But lighting my Lavender scented Yankee candle and making a mug of coffee are pretty much a constant!

#writing resource #resources #dinspiration #i found this while doing some research for a fic i'm currently writing and it's such a good resource for mando culture!! #mandalorians #mandalorian culture

[thefrogdalorian]

We have all been personally victimised by Din Djarin's big beautiful brown eyes and deserve financial compensation immediately.

Why have I never noticed he looks at the camERA BEFORE I'M

#he WILL be hearing from my lawyers!

[thefrogdalorian]

TRUE hearing Din's voice would definitely make me swerve off the road. Hahah we've all been there!! I am prone to daydreaming and really have to focus at traffic lights!

Thank you so much!! I really hope you're right 🥹

[thefrogdalorian]

Thank you hehe!! Me tooooooo. Luckily he redeemed himself quickly and could be accepted again, I do love that about Mandalorian culture. But it definitely hurt to see him go through that!!

I was watching Chapter 15: The Believer yesterday and something stood out to me that I guess I'd never really thought about before...

When the Juggernaut is getting attacked by the Pirates, we see several shots of Din struggling without his armour. It's a new way of fighting for him and he struggles to adapt at first.

He quickly rallies and skilfully fights them off, though. But more pirates soon appear and after fighting them off, Din is thrown backwards. He sees several pirates approaching.

Din lies down in defeat, powerless to fight them off without his armour or weapons. Knowing his death is likely imminent, without hope of survival.

Instead of giving up and accepting defeat, he does not allow himself to wallow in despair and mystery. After sighing deeply he steadies himself and gets right back up:

Facing down death as the pirates approach, he does not show weakness or fear.

He doesn't allow himself to be cowardly, or dwell on his likely impending doom and the fact he has failed in his quest to rescue the child he loves so much...

Instead, Din stands there with his fists up, outnumbered and without weapons, prepared to fight to the end even in the face of certain death...

Fortunately, of course, the TIE Fighters appear to save the day and Din succeeds in his quest to rescue Grogu and, well, you know the rest.

But I think this little moment in one of the best episodes is such a good insight into his character.

Standing up with his fists clenched like that, outnumbered and hopeless but refusing to accept defeat is perhaps one of the most Mandalorian things he's ever done. Yet only a few minutes later he removes his helmet and that act leaves him rendered an apostate in the eyes of his people. Told he is a Mandalorian no more, even.

It's kind of heartbreaking because he really did not deserve to be told that. Mandalorians are proud warriors, who never give up. Being a coward is the worst insult in Mando'a, their ancient language. Here, Din showed that he is nothing of the sort.

Din Djarin is as honourable a Mandalorian as they come.
