How hilarious is it that Kreia finds out Atton is a former Jedi hunter/torturer/murderer and is immediately like “Perfect. Babysit my Jedi.”

One of the best parts of KoTOR 2 to me is how it subverts the typical Star Wars trend of having the main character be the center of the universe. In most things Star Wars, especially the movies, everything revolves around the main character, and granted, that is partly because they will be our main protagonist, but also it specially focuses around them. Anakin Skywalker is the single most important person during the prequels, almost everyone plans involve him in some way, and his actions define almost everything else that happens. This trend continues in the other trilogies, with the Skywalkers being the main focus.
KoTOR 2 is similar in some aspects to this, the Exile is undoubtedly the center of the story, and their actions influence everyone else to the extreme. The subversion of this is that the majority of the exile's influence doesn't take place during the game arguably. It happens far before it.
The Exile is responsible for almost every one of their companions major neuroses. Your actions have defined everyone, if not always directly, and played major parts of shaping them into who they are by the time of the game. The way it plays out, it's like a sort of "afterword" of one of the movies. You experience the fallout of the actions and decisions you made, the result of being the center of the universe, and it is very rarely pretty. KoTOR 2's companions were broken by your actions, and now you have to mend that break.
Basically, I really love that KoTOR 2 shows the how being the most important person ever would really play out, and its incredibly destructive consequences. Its a really cool subversion of the typical Star Wars formula.

There was something Revan once told her that Meetra never forgot. No matter how much time separated them. 
“Did you know the greater Firaxan octopod dies when it lays its eggs?” he said, with all the enthusiasm of a twelve year old who liked gross things. “The hundreds of tiny hatchlings feed on the body until they’re big enough to hunt for themselves. 
Malak, tender hearted child that he was, frowned and said it was sad. 
Meetra, who could admit she used to be a bit much, said, “It’s a perfect example of the Unifying Force. There is no death, there is the Force.”  
“That’s very wise,” Revan replied, straight faced. “Which Master will you eat?” 
The conversation devolved into outraged laughter and name calling. 
It was a silly fun fact. One idle moment in what would become long and storied lives. Yet she remembered it at the most bizarre moments. 
Revan asked her to disobey the council and join the war.
Did you know the Firaxan octopod dies when it lays its eggs?
Dxunn burned. 
Its children feed off of the body. 
Malak slaughtered an entire Mandalorian tribe. 
The Firaxan octopod dies when it lays its eggs. 
She blew up a planet and ended a war. 
The children eat their mother’s corpse. 
She stood before a council of the men and women who raised her, stripped her of her rank, her lightsaber, and the Force. 
And she wondered. Did the greater Firaxan octopod hate its children, for what they demanded of it? Would it choose death in old age and extinction, if it could?

i'm tickled by the idea of mandalorians having an oral tradition of unbroken narration put in place by canderous as part of his whole PRESERVER deal. part of it is his story (and the one of the jedi exile he traveled with and how they fell in love) being passed on that way.
AND then mandalorians make and remake the story as movies of varying quality over the millennia - anything from soapy romance to serious sad war movie interpretations of it
so i had a little fun drawing a poster for one of those fictional movies: the more romance oriented "Cin Kar'ta". inspired/based on a c-drama poster you can look at here
it's a timeless queer classic in mando culture and popular contraband in the jedi temple

i really love these answers kotor ii offers you when you’re asked what the force feels like:
imagine awakening, and hearing the heartbeat of the galaxy for the first time.
it is like a current that passes through you, and carries you with it to all the places it touches.
the warmth of the sun without the glare - you can feel its light and its heat, but there is no harshness to it.
i wish we could see more of this mystical-force writing in ‘mainstream’ star wars. more of the feeling of it being nebulous, not one simple thing you can easily name, but more beautiful for it

I think Atton's jealousy and resentment of Mical goes a lot deeper than "he stole my girl."
Firstly, Mical is roughly 10 years younger than Atton/the Exile. Which means, Mical - while his life path was certainly altered due to the Wars - never had to fight in either the Mando or Jedi Civil Wars. For the most part, he's lived in a post-war society and doesn't have a jaded worldview. Sure, Mical criticizes the Order but there's no hatred; he's simply disappointed in their shortcomings. He very much still has faith in the Republic, because he never really saw how much of a clusterfuck the administration was during wartime. So Atton, right off the bat, sees Mical as this irritating kid who doesn't know what he's talking about. And the fact the kid's a Republic spy (and a diplomatic spy at that, so missions are mostly fact-finding involving politics rather than getting a blaster pointed between the eyes), is just extra salt in the wound. Sure, he's "serving" in the Republic military, just with all the glory and none of the PTSD, lingering medical issues due to combat injuries, and none of the lifelong problems with substance abuse.
Also, I headcanon young Jaq (before getting severely mentally fucked up during the War) as a bit of a wide-eyed "Gee Whiz!" idealist. And now Atton sees this mirrored in this pretty boy wannabe field physician-turned-spy. Except Mical never gets the idealism smacked out of him, assuming the Exile's LS. In fact, this kid seems to be rewarded for his idealism at every turn.
Hell, I bet the fact that Mical's a Republic spy and that's another lightside mirror to Atton being a Sith assassin, just rubs Atton all kinds of wrong.
Second, Mical is perhaps a bit naive (okay, more than a bit) but he's very intelligent. He's openly a bookworm and, say what you will, Mical was the only one to discover Kreia's plan on his own. Even Kreia says he's a "wasted" pawn of the Republic, that he could have been so much more. She, grudgingly, respects him (as much as Kreia respects anyone outside of Revan and the Exile). So, once again, compare this with "the fool", Atton, who is clearly also quite intelligent in his own way. However, nobody really sees that because Atton acts like a dumbass in order for people to underestimate him. This probably futhers Atton's resentment - this snot-nosed nerd gets to flaunt his brainpower, but Atton's always flying under the radar.
Even worse would be if young Jaq had dreams of maybe going to a good university after serving, maybe hoping to use whatever the Republic's version of the GI Bill program was - only for Jaq to be too messed up after the War and not to mention he deserted, so he's probably thrown all chances at getting military benefits out the window.
Now to throw the match into the kerosene-soaked mess of Atton's hatred - is when the Exile potentially starts to grow close to Mical. It's like, of course, Atton feels like garbage not worthy breathing the same air as the Exile. But he'd hoped that perhaps she'd at least never grow close to anyone else. That they would stay in a state of relationship limbo forever.
So... on top of everything else, the kid gets her too?
Atton would be seething, even if he's LS. I think the only reason LS Atton restrains himself from cornering Mical on Malachor and shoving his lightsaber through his eyesocket, is because that would upset the Exile. If Atton's DS, all he feels is his rage, bitterness, and resentment - plus the overwhelming desire to see a Jedi's life bleed out on the floor.
Meanwhile, I think Mical regards Atton with bemused pity. Also he shows him compassion, since Mical is emotionally mature enough to see Atton is a very broken man.
Which of course just pisses off Atton more.
