Do you ever think about how many times Din was probably misunderstood throughout his life because of his helmet? How much pain he must've been in when people's opinions of him did not match the man beneath the armour... I can't even fathom how many times a small gesture or something he said was misinterpreted because of his appearance...
Imagine him trying really hard to fix it at the start before eventually giving up because it was too hard and just resigning himself to barely speaking, not wanting to be known by others after many bad experiences. I think that explains a part of why we find him so isolated and distant at the beginning of The Mandalorian.
Encountering Grogu really changed Din's life in so many ways... the child not only gave him a purpose other than bringing in the next bounty and running from the past, but Grogu also made him WANT to try and regain that connection with others that he had been missing for so long. Just contrast how little he speaks in the early chapters to how talkative he is to Grogu at the beginning of season 3 as he educates him about Mandalorian culture and history, it's such a monumental shift from who he was at the beginning.
I want to hug him tightly, he deserves the word.

history 101 💛
This was originally just supposed to be me having fun exploring what Ephemer would be like as a teacher but it got a bit out of hand in a good way (but I think I spent way too long on this lol)
Notes:
I wholeheartedly believe that teaching is Eph’s true passion. While writing Overmorrow, I came to realize that his role as a teacher/master is necessary in ensuring that light and the will of the keyblade lives on, but it’s also something he would just genuinely enjoy doing on a personal level. Aside from being able to infodump to his heart’s content (that’s a big deal! 😄), he can also help, inspire, and lead as a teacher! I think if he does actually establish the Keyblade order/academy in canon, it would be his pride and joy
Eph’s actual classroom may not have looked like kh3/dr’s, but I like to believe it was probably similarly designed. (He learned a lot about teaching from Hestia 🥰)
Lyra first appeared here :) the rest of the students are new, I made them up on the spot
my ass could not have handled making Overmorrow as a webcomic

whenever will has a bad day at work (or just a bad day in general), and he's just sitting on the couch and sulking, mike will put on will's current favorite song and ask him to dance really stupidly formally like they do at weddings. will always rolls his eyes and pouts and refuses at first - until he sees mike, his wonderful amazing beautiful boyfriend, busting out his absolute cringiest dance moves to their favorite the cure song or whatever else and singing along to said song horrifically off key in the middle of their living room. and then mike extends his hands to will and forcefully pulls him up off the couch and twirls him around and dips him down to kiss him like he's the most special boy in the world (because he is. Obviously) and will can't pout anymore because mike's hands are so big and warm in his own and it's just them, being stupid and silly and crazy together in their tiny little one bedroom apartment and dancing along to all of their favorites. before the first song even finishes, though, will finds himself singing and dancing along too and twirling mike back because mike's dopey little grin is so damn infectious that he just. can't help it.
and this is how mike develops the Tried And True Method To Turn Will's Frown Upside Down (pun not intended) that he still continues even when they're older and married, because they're still stupid kids at heart and love each other so much that it needs to be shared in every way possible ❤️

do u have any alma and pedro headcanons?? LOVE ur blog queen 😋😋
aww thank you so much!! and ooh this is interesting ask! I never get questions about alma and pedro but I think it would be fun to explore them!
some of these are inspired from “tale of three sisters” encanto book! I highly recommend it!!
pedro is confirmed to be a writer so I feel like he would write poetry and stories for alma or inspired by her!!
Alma snorts when she laughs!! and pedro finds it really cute!
Pedro taught her to sew and then she passed it down to her kids!
Pedro is dramatic!! he’s very theatrical in nature! (we can see where madrigals get that from)
I feel like alma was always someone who was community orientated! her and pedro probably got lots of help as a young couple from the village! and they would return the favor!
Pedro is a really good cook! and alma is a really good dancer!
both of them learned to play an instrument! (don’t know what but I think them as musicians is fun!)
pedro would talk to the babies as they were growing inside alma all the time! like full on conversation! “your mama is real stressed right now could you calm down on the kicking”
Pedro always wanted to be a dad!
he’s also a really bad snorer but alma loves him too much to say that!
Pedro is impatient! he can get annoyed easily whilst alma is more patient!
He loves exploring and starts talking to alma about the places they were going to visit with the triplets!

Steve finds out this gay club he and Eddie go to sometimes is having a metal night, it’s on a Friday and he’s exhausted from work but still, he takes Eddie. It’s absolutely worth it with the way Eddie’s eyes light up at the start of every song
He did however miscalculate a bit because he keeps trying to kiss Eddie who does happily kiss back but only for a second before pulling away to scream-sing the lyrics in Steve’s face
Steve makes a mental note to remember the next time he wants to make out with Eddie in the middle of a dance floor he should go with music Eddie doesn’t know down to his bones

"He had a headband on yesterday [...] with some Japanese writing that said 一番 (ichiban), which means number one [...] and that was a little nod back to 2011, when he won the world title here, where he had a similar headband given to him at the time.
I saw him this morning! I said, you're like the messiah around here. Everywhere you go, there are people following you around here and wanting to have a chat. And he's like, 'yeah, it's brilliant, and I love it, and it's my last time here, and I'm feeling the energy and the love from the Japanese fans!'"
