#the mandalorian-ish

[stealingpotatoes]

just watched mando s3 it’s great that we TOTALLY had a whole season about din coming to grips with being mand’alor & life without grogu and about dueteragonist bo-katan coming to realise she was only trying to lead mand’alor bc of her sister not bc she thought she was the best leader. and the whole season centred around the theme of accepting who you really are even if you’re certain you’re something else and was about how heroes and leaders can come from anywhere, they don’t have to come from a special bloodline (a sorta thesis against the skywalker saga) and about the uniting power of grief and oppression. isn’t it great we had that instead of a season with no plot 

isn’t it great that there were no mando cameos in tbobf and mando season 3 started with him on a bounty, cringefailing at using the darksaber and stabbing himself but he did the job and got paid in a nubian starfighter (he wanted a razor crest but he’s injured so he doesnt argue much) which he then used to find his covert on the canyon planet. then he revealed to the armorer and paz that he had the darksaber which after some time leads to paz duelling din for the saber (without telling the others bc they dont know din has it) and din wins but its revealed he took his helmet off. he’s made apostate IN FRONT OF EVERYONE (EVERYONE!!) with only one IMPOSSIBLE chance of redemption (nobody can go to mandalore anymore!!) and has to leave and now has nothing — no child, no clan. so he does the only thing he can think to and goes to a green planet we’ve never seen before. he lands safely but still injured from his fight with Paz and not fully healed from the original injury he passes out. and the episode ends with a kid running over and telling another kid to call master skywalker

and sure episode 2 was the fanservice episode but its disney! we have to expect a marketable plushie cameo episode — except of course that didn’t mean it wasn’t plot relevant! din wakes up and we realise he’s at luke’s jedi academy and this is great n stuff we finally get to see luke in his prime teaching a whole bunch of students! and we get to see grogu happy and having fun with his kind (which makes din happy but miss his own covert). luke notices din has a saber himself (despite it being well-hidden — luke can sense it) and din admits he can’t use it and that he doesnt think it even belongs to him while luke shows him saber forms (but pretends its for his own training and not din’s bc din refuses to learn). they have a discussion and din reveals he came here bc he got kicked out and has no way to redeem himself bc there are no mines left and even then the planet’s poisonous. luke spouts some jedi stuff asking din if he’s certain and says blind certainty is the enemies of hope and progress or whatever (setting up the larger theme of identity certainty in the season). luke also points out that if they imps r there then they have to have some way of getting around the environment they caused. inspired and knowing grogu is safe here, din is ready to go redeem himself on mandalore. he says he’ll come to see grogu again and luke makes it clear that while attachments can’t get in front of duty, din is always welcome here <3 

episode 3 of course had din go to the ruins of mandalore to redeem himself, inspired by luke’s words about certainty he goes to the ruins of sundari, where he knows there was once living waters (the other option is the one surviving and imperial-controlled city, but he’s not that dumb). also bc the imps only hang around the cities so that must be where it's survivable. there’s some imperials about the edge of the city (not many) and he does have to subtly fight them but he gets spotted. he wins but he’s panicking bc during the fight his breathing system got hit but then he notices a plant growing. and he realises he’s not dying — the air isn’t poisonous anymore or whatever! so he turns off his failing life support and goes to the city. he explores the city and finds many remnants of mandalorian culture there in the small parts that survived. ash-covered murals, mostly-burnt toys, something that could have once been a palace. he finds a memorial to a duchess satine kryze and thinks huh like bo katan? (because of course the show wouldn’t ignore bo’s motivations) anyway after some slow but meaningful exploring (its quietness eerie, unlike the quietness of the previous stealth section) he manages to make his way below the city. he finds the mines, reads the inscription and then goes in. except of course its no longer shallow and he falls and he falls and he realises well fuck he’s gonna die. his life support got hit earlier and he doesnt have his jetpack he’s going to sink. but then in the darkness, a great looming eye opens and before din knows it, SOMETHING is throwing him out that sinking water. it had to have been a freak current right? he was hallucinating. surely a MYTHOSAUR didn’t just save him… those are all dead, only to return with a new age of mandalore! he shakes his head, ignores it, and collects the water with something new to bring to his people

episode 4 reintroduced us to old fan favourite bo katan in her depression girl era bc din shows up to her empty palace ready to help her take back mandalore… only to find her in a depression pit and— oh my god is she drunk??! she drops that her ppl left her bc she didn’t have the darksaber and din’s looking at the depression pit like. right. bc of the darksaber. he briefly tries to convince her to fight him for it but she’s like no you’ll throw the fight it won’t be true comba— oh no! explosion nearby bc looks like din wasn’t as careful as he thought and the imperials followed him to bo’s place so both of them have to fucking skeet outta there and bo’s home’s destroyed so din’s like hey come on let’s go to my people we can take back mandalore with them or smthn. so they head back to the covert, din reveals he’s no longer apostate and that mandalore isnt cursed it’s breathable + you can successfully walk on the surface now. this is however interrupted by a beast showing up and trying to kill some ppl. it almost kills paz’s son but din kills the beast first in his starfighter. anyway back to the conversation (now within the cave) and din’s trying to convince his clan that they can take back mandalore (with bo as leader) but none of them want to follow her or risk what few numbers they have left. dejected, din and bo make to leave again, but paz follows them out and is like ?? din you literally have the darksaber why didn’t you use it to get at least SOME of them to follow you and din’s like i don’t want people to follow me bc of a legend, if they follow me it has to be bc they want to and paz and bo r internally like wow damn. anyway paz then says he’ll always fight w din if needed bc he saved his son but if he wants the people to follow him they should try get some of the other clans to help so it looks less dangerous. so bo and din leave on their quest. also throughout this episode, we’re introduced to some random civilian in the reintegration program. its implied they worked with gideon and that they’re preparing for something, but we don’t get much more than that. 

episode 5 is the bo episode, this is where we explore her character, have her arc, and ya know really cover her motivations (bc disney would NEVER make it so her motivation is invisible unless you’d seen two other tv shows). din and bo head to where her clan is. they just want to see the clan but they end up being dragged into a b-plot about helping the local pacifist duchess (& duke). din tries to say no but bo-katan says smthn abt diplomacy. this quest initially doesn’t seem plot relevant but throughout bo opens up about her own pacifist duchess sister and she comes to realise how much of this quest has been about trying to live up to satine and not bc she thinks herself the best mand’alor. the thing she said abt diplomacy earlier, she reveals, is just a quote from her sister. anyway they’re finally able to go to bo’s old clan and she, now reinvigorated in accepting and knowing who she is and what she wants (no longer depression girl) challenges axe for leadership of the clan. she wins and in a speech is like we’re gonna retake unpoisonous mandalore by uniting the clans!! most agree but theyre like HOW are we supposed to convince the other clans? and it descends into insane yelling UNTIL a low hum and a black-white light falls over the group. silence falls. everyone looks on. high above his head, din is holding the darksaber (proudly!!) and he’s like we’ll unite them with this. but axe has to constantly be chatting shit and getting up from the floor where he got his ass whipped he’s like really???? you wanna follow him???? he doesn’t even have any mandalorian blood in him!!! and bo makes a great speech about blood doesn’t make a good leader what makes a good leader is knowing when to use your power. and then she’s like he is my mand’alor amen and kneels before him. everyone else follows and din awkwardly stands there still not fully accepting his role 

episode 6 was the great prep episode. we start with din and bo helping and getting a new tribe on their side and heading back to Concordia we realise they’ve got this HUGEEEE war camp of mandalorians!! there are so many clans with them now (except one, which din is really missing)!!!!! this episode mostly focuses on mandalorian culture and them training/ planning and din and bo trying to keep the clans from biting each other’s heads off. but this is interrupted when a small group of imperials try to pre-attack them (like they did w bo’s palace) but the mandos all manage to fight back and take them down, which then leads to a whole speech from din and bo about how mandalorians are all fighting but theyre united now in their grief and with this they can fight the empire. the b-plot of the episode comes back to that random civilian from episode 4 and whoomp turns out their plan was to BREAK MOFF GIDEON OUT OF JAIL!! shitttt!!!! oh no!! he’s back now, that’s gonna make their very decent plan to take back mandalore harder but they dont knowww (irony!)

episodes 7 and 8 were the battle of mandalore, woo! it had to be two episodes because it’s a taking whole occupied planet and not a single base, a pretty damn difficult task that definitely can’t be done by two single clans in like 40 minutes! there’s all those mini tiny bases scattered throughout the planet on the ruins (like din encountered in episode 3) AND more importantly there’s the one domed city that the imperials kept alive as their main base — which means they have to be careful, bc they can’t do any sort of aerial assault or great deal of damage to the imperials without also destroying the one surviving place for them to live. so the plan is smaller strike teams to go the bases plopped around the planet as a distraction and to stop reinforcements to the city while the main force surround the city and take it. the first city team (with din and bo) has to open up all the ports and stuff to allow the HUGE armies to get in. unfortunately this is in the main imp base in the centre of the city so they have to get there. (they’d prefer 2 strike teams but they can only spare 1) MOST of the mini-bases r meanwhile being successfully captured. the strike team gets to the centre to de-activate the port shielding n stuff and GASP! IT’S GIDEON!! FROM JAIL!! and he’s surrounded by fucking MANDO STORMTROOPERS and IN BESKAR ARMOUR oh no!! ambush!! he knew they’d have to go here to allow a full-scale assault! the small strike team at sundari also gets captured bc there were some mandotroopers there (they increased security post episode 3). episode 7 ends on a cliffhanger bc all seems lost and the strike team’s surrounded 

episode 8 starts straight off the cliffhanger and oh no they’re all gonna die gasp WHEN BAM fighting noises elsewhere, everyone’s confused, when paz’s voice crackles over din’s comm like hey bro! BC DIN’S CLAN FINALLY SHOWED UP TO HELP AND THEY WERE ABLE TO MAKE THAT SECOND STRIKE TEAM and in the confusion din & bo’s team take out the mandotroopers, gideon gets away. din and paz and the armorer come face to face and paz calls him mand’alor or smthn bc he’s also accepted it and they’re like woo let’s go now we can fight fr!! din heads to help lead the battle ig but bo’s like nah i have to end gideon for what he did to our planet. and din’s like well he’s wearing beskar armour so you’ll need this and gives her his beskar spear WHICH IS SYMBOLIC BC he’s finally giving up his other weapon and is going to solely use the darksaber!! he’s accepted who he is and is going to lead their ppl!! so yeah instead of having din fight gideon, who he already beat once, bo fights him and its incredibly cathartic. at sundari that strike team who got captured is also not looking great but MYTHOSAUR EX MACHINA COMES AND FUCKS UP THE IMPERIALS THERE (its returned!!). so big battle and gideon’s down and the darksaber DOESN’T get destroyed yay! afterwards they all vibe and they go to the forge and the armorer relights it and they proclaim din mand’alor fr and he accepts it and throne. sure he's still a BIT uneasy (mand'alor the reluctant anyone?) but he's not saying NOO now loll. yayyy!! AND THEN final scene is din returns to the jedi academy like hii thanks for ur advice u were right being blindly certain abt stuff is meh and leaves no room for hope. uh could i show grogu mandalore i promise i’ll bring him right back and it ends on din showing grogu the planet finally bc thats cute and fanservice

anyway isn’t it great this is exactly what happened, it’s all canon and definitely not the stealingpotatoes sequels canon continuity rewrite! 

#hot girls finally watch a show and then immediately sit down and make 2.5k words of a rewrite LOL #while having a fever! #mand'alor din djarin #potes wrotes #(ish) #the mandalorian s3 #mandalorian season 3 #IM NOT SAYING I COULD DO BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL WRITERS like i get they have very different circumstances to me n stuff w execs etc #but i did try to write this while considering what would make good/marketable tv not just what would make a solely good plot #im not gonna be one of those ppl who's never made a tv show but thinks she could do better than seasoned writers/directors lollll #this is lichrally me trying to make my accidental redo continuity work with s3 LMAO #its also messy as hell bc i wrote it in one sitting and its not a proper piece of writing. there r plot holes but i think less than og #actually if there r any problems im blaming my fever <3 #mandalorian s3 rewrite #the sswscc

As I’m about to lose consciousness again, I would like to share a sleepy headcanon for Din or Joel and reader

I imagine that after you all take your respective showers, you offer to give him a nice long back massage before sexy times. Poor man needs it for being the muscle and protector (despite your attempts for things to not be that way). So, you want to get him and nice and relaxed and like putty before sex.

But in the middle of the massage you start hearing snores, ultimately squashing those plans. Like a true champ, you finish the massage, roll him sideways, and squeeze yourself into his arms. He doesn’t rouse much, only to sigh peacefully and hold you closer. You still consider this a success and think about the soft morning ahead as you lose consciousness.

Jaster & Tor

For me, one of the most hilarious and no less furious aspects of Jaster Mereel’s treatment in the sources is how he is hailed as the great figure in Mandalorian history that brought back honor between Mandalorian Mercs and all but like, not getting any real development for over two decades. Sure, he got here and there mini encyclopedia entries and some mention in regard to Jango Fett, but never anything truly expanding his characterization beyond the general image of “good” Mandalorian created by tie-in sources - an image I find a pretty bland one compared to retconned “The Last One Standing: The Tale of Boba Fett” (in which Jaster Mereel originated from) and Jango Fett: Open Seasons comics series.

This is hilarious, because Tor Vizsla got a personal entry in Fact Files - an article biased as hell but still acknowledging both him as character and his impact on Jango & Mandalorians - and a whole section of Bounty Hunter Code for himself and Death Watch. And though I will forever stand with Jango that the Manifesto doesn’t sound much like him (but I like the idea the Manifesto is based on Tor’s notes just edited by someone to be more reader-friendly), there is like 30 pages expanding history and his person while Jaster is once again reduced to small mention here and there. And look, it is hilarious to me that Vizsla and Death Watch is the Mandalorians that Lucas wanted to keep for The Clone Wars, throwing out of window the supposedly great Jaster Mereel and True Mandalorians without any second thought but good damn, it is so frustrating we can’t get any solid material on him even though Bounty Hunter Code was the perfect opportunity to bring him back, as it would make a perfect sense for Jango to keep Jaster’s notes if not the whole Codex.

It is also frustrating because Tor and Jaster are like the two Mandalorians officially writting down important stuff and apparently both were versed in Mandalorian history & lore and I for one would love to compare their notes to get the feeling of middle-ground and see their ideas from the proper perspective not from biased sources that clearly favores Jaster - even if in JF:OS, after making research and interrogating Jango’s allies, Dooku’s only conclusion was that for Mereel Mandalorians were “merely highly-paid soldiers”. Which is hardly the same as bringing work ethic to your group (not that it does cross out the possibility of having actual moral standards, but it does not automatically mean the same). It is frustrating, because we don’t get that often Mandalorians with literary tendencies - hell, we didn’t get any other Mandalorian like that for years because almost everything is about the oral culture which makes Tor Vizsla and Jaster Mereel’s existence even more hilarious, as the two literature nerds that at some point sit down and write their own input - Tor about history and political goals for new members of Death Watch, Jaster about work ethics for True Mandalorians. And it is even more hilarious than that, because Jango Fett presumably read both works and HE DOESN’T READ BOOKS BECAUSE HE THINKS THEY ARE WASTE OF TIME:

Boba's father didn't read much. "Books? A waste of time," he said. "Read maps, Boba. Instructions. Warnings. Important stuff." [Boba Fett Book 1: The Fight to Survive by Terry Bisson]

#star wars #jaster mereel #tor vizsla #jango fett #mandalorians #death watch #true mandalorians #LOOK FOR ME JASTER AND TOR ARE THE OLD GUARD TYPE OF MANDALORIANS #they may not agree on what it is mean to be mandalorian in modern times #they may hate each other #but both at some point decided to write a fucking book-ish type of work #solely to pass it to other members of their group to uphold standards and ideals they believe in #AND THERE IS JANGO WHO DOESN'T READ BOOKS #and he read dw manifesto as can be seen by his comments #and presumbly read jaster's work either to please his mentor or was forced to do so #WE WERE ROBBED #tor and jaster should get more spotlight in books and comics not just some biased tie-in materials #WE NEED MORE MANDO NERDS WHO WILL SIT DOWN AND WRITE THE IMPORTANT STUFF FOR US #AND TO TORMENT JANGO WITH MORE BOOKS TO READ XDDD #but seriously jaster deserves so much better and it seems my new tradition to write a rant about him once in every year or two lol #tor too deserves better #the only more frustrating thing is how jaster tag is now full of jedi and still barely about him but i guess the poor bastard is really #that unlucky lol

bby once agaon CONGRATS ON 11K!! you're amazing and so talented and I love you so <333 can I request 🍾 filth drabbles // power play + din djarin??? 👀 maybe a bit of age gap if you feel like it istg all these old men are gonna be the death of me

SILLLLLL my love!!!! thank you baby!!! enjoy your request!

filth below the cut!!

“I told you to stay on the ship.”

Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.

Din is mad. Extremely mad. You can hear it through the modulator, the absolute malice and concern in his tone, the near-growl that escapes him as he drags you by your elbow and almost flings you against the wall of the Crest. Even through all that shiny thick beskar, you can see the intermittent rise and fall of his chest, the knots in his neck and shoulders, and if that wasn’t enough to warn you of Din’s bubbling anger, the patronizing tilt of his dark visor is — oh, you just know that you and the kid are never seeing the light of day again.

You didn’t mean to piss him off. Especially now that he’s come back after chasing a quarry for three days, only to step empty-handed into a quiet, abandoned ship while you were out spoiling his foundling. “Din, I’m — I’m fine. I held my own perfectly, it was fine.”

“Held your own? And what about nearly getting—“

“I don’t have a single scratch on—“

“… you could’ve gotten…”

“Din, please.”

“… directly disobeying my orders.”

You scoff incredulously, easing your elbow out of Din’s suffocating grip. “Oh, your orders? What am I your good little quarry? Fuck off. You expect me to just sit here and wait forever?”

The cargohold’s atmosphere changes as soon as the words leave your lips.

You just pushed all of his buttons with one big swipe of your hand.

“Good little quarry, huh?” He asks, visor unmoving, nothing but the swirl of your own reflection staring back at you. The creak of his leather gloves warns you that you’ve crossed some sort of line, and had it not been for the twinge of amusement dripping from the rich baritone of his voice, you would’ve expected him to throw you out the side of the ship already. “Is that what you think you are, mesh’la?”

Mesh’la.

“S’how I feel sometimes.” You shrug, gulping as Din’s shadow swallows you, fists at his side like a proper soldier.

“And do… good little quarries run away when they’re not supposed to?”

Oh.

Oh. This game.

You fight the grin that threatens to spread across your lips, replacing it with a look of innocence, a gentle furrow of your brow as you step forward and tilt your chin up to look at him. “I don’t know, Mando. Can’t blame me for being scared of a big, bad bounty hunter like you.”

“You have two seconds to get to the cockpit.” He says smoothly, easy and straight to the point as he glances at the ladder then back to you.

“Two seconds?”

Impossible. He’s playing dirty today.

And you’re right, because the moment you try to slip out and under from his arm before your time is up, Din snatches you by the waist with one large hand over your stomach and yanks you back roughly against his chestplate with a snarl of your name. Then he’s turning you to the wall, nearly shoving your face up against the grated metal before he’s tearing off linens and fabrics and cotton and — oh, you really liked that underwear — hiking your shirt up your torso until the cool air meets your nipples. You don’t know how he does it, especially with all those different pieces to his beloved beskar and flight suit, but his bare cock slides its way easily between your thighs, rubbing up against your puffy cunt as you brace yourself against the hold.

“Good little quarry enjoy getting fucked like this, don’t they? Against the wall. Cheap. Filthy. Just a quick fix.” Din rambles desperately, pained as he parts your folds and spears his fat cock into you without much warning or preparation. Not that you needed any. You’ve been dripping wet the moment he grabbed your arm and dragged you back to the ship. “That’s a good quarry…” He purrs, pulling your head back and letting you rest it against his shoulder. “Take it, kair’ta. Maker. Fuck. You ever leave my ship again…”

“S-Stars, Din…”

“You try to leave my ship ever again and I’m fucking you until you can never walk away from me.”

“That doesn’t — oh, fuck — that doesn’t sound too bad. Mando. Mando — Din, fuck, please.”

Din chuckles, low and deep and warm, a hint of an accent slipping between his words. “Atin. Be careful what you ask for.”

“Oh, trust me, I know what I’m asking.”

You’re sure that your legs are out of remission for the next five standard years.

December 2

pairing: Din Djarin x reader

warnings: fluff, allusions to spice

words: 949

a/n: slightly grumpy Din who is also a sucker

Last, Full List, Next

🏔🏔🏔

While Din had been hunting his last bounty, you and Grogu had gone into the nearby village (you were allowed to because it was in the opposite direction the bounty had gone). As was usual, you went to the market to buy food and other staples that you liked to stock up on just in case you weren’t going to be on planet for a while. 

The baby always stuck close by you and he was generally more well-behaved for you than he was with his dad. You were never sure whether it was because he felt less safe with you than his heavily armored and weaponed dad or if he thought you needed him for protection. Either way you weren’t complaining. 

Today, as you were buying things, the vendors kept mentioning a light festival in the town, asking if the two of you were planning on going. Not knowing the area, you tried to subtly get information from different sellers (probably overly cautious, but Din had influenced you). 

Apparently, there was a large garden at the edge of the village that was decorated in thousands of lights and there would be food vendors and live music. Grogu listened just as much as you did, and while you weren’t sure if he knew what the lights would look like, he was very interested at the prospect of food. And you knew that he would love the lights when he did see them. 

The festival was going on for a couple nights so you would suggest it to Din when he got back to the ship. You knew better than to try and go just you and the baby, never  being allowed to leave the ship without Din at night. Sure that between you and Grogu he would be convinced, the two of you grabbed some lunch before heading back to the ship. 

That night, Din didn’t return until Grogu was asleep and you were getting ready for bed yourself. You were in the fresher but you could hear him take the bounty to the carbonite freezer and then he knocked on the door to give you the all clear. Once you were dried off and dressed, you went out and found him in the cockpit, clearly having just finished eating, but with his helmet back on. 

You smiled at him and he held out a hand for you, helping you to sit sideways on his lap. The two of you were committed to be wed, and some days it felt like you couldn’t wait to be able to kiss him, see his face. The thought of getting to do it soon distracted you for a moment, but when he tilted his head in a clear mark of curiosity, you remembered what you were going to say. 

Grabbing his hand in both of yours, you started playing with his fingers absent-mindedly as you started talking, “So Grogu and I heard about something that sounded like fun today.” 

Din nodded and hummed for you to continue, though you also felt him shifting just a bit underneath you. 

“The town is having a light festival this week with food and music and lights, of course, and I thought the baby would love it.” 

“Just the kid?”

You smiled sheepishly, “Well, I would love it too. What do you say, can we go?” 

He hummed in thought, which you thought was just to make you sweat. “Will I love it?” 

You laughed and said, “I’m sure there will be things there you like. And if there isn’t, I’ll make it up to you.” 

Din’s hands tightened on you and he said, “I think I need an example of that right now.” 

Smiling suggestively, you readjusted to straddle him instead and said, “You can consider it a thank you.” 

___

The next evening, the three of you set out for the festival, and just as you predicted you all loved it. Even underneath his helmet, you could tell that Din was enjoying himself. He made a lot of comments about how everything was constructed and pointed out the particularly elaborate displays to the baby, all while sticking very close to you. The two of you didn’t like to display affection in public (mainly because Din didn’t want anyone to target you because of him), but he did guide you sometimes with a hand on the small of your back or the light touch of his fingertips on your elbow. 

You and Grogu got your fill of yummy food and drinks as you walked, and you made sure to pack some away in your bag for Din to have later. By the end of the night, Din had to carry Grogu back to the ship, all tuckered out from the food and excitement. 

While you put Grogu to bed, Din ate, and again you found him in the cockpit and again, you sat sideways on his lap. 

“So what did you think?” 

After several seconds, Din just shrugged and hummed noncommittally. 

For a second, you questioned yourself, wondering if he actually hadn’t enjoyed himself, but then you felt his hands sliding up your thighs and you realized what he was thinking. 

“Oh no, Din,” you said, exaggerating your worry. “You didn’t like it?” 

Again, Din just shrugged, apparently incapable of outright lying to you. 

“Poor honey, had to spend all that time walking around with us,” you gave him your best sad eyes, knowing he liked it when you babied him a bit. You moved to straddle him, again, and then leaned in, tugging his cowl down so your lips could find his neck, “I guess I’ll just have to make it up to you.”

Shin is standing in front of Sabine with a big smirk on her face meanwhile Sabine running towards her but with closed eyes to attack her. but suddenly she feels that someone, no it was Shin grabbing her Hand in which her Saber is and when she´s open her eyes she sees those green eyes, almost glowing in the darkness. she failed to do what her mind said to her but choose to do what her heart wanted

in the end they have only one thing in mind: "I want you and you want me"

I just had a bunch of pleasant little Din thoughts while taking a shower lol, nothing too spicy but 18+ BELOW THE CUT MDNI

I think that Din Djarin is a no deodorant guy. He’s so practical about it like “why do I need to put extra chemicals on myself? If I stink, I just need a shower. What if the deodorant itches my skin while I’m hunting?”

Sometimes it bothers you. Oftentimes, if he comes back from a short hunt, he smells irresistible (which is weird typing this out lol). It’s a nice stink that makes you rip his armor off as soon as he comes in the door and devour him for hours. Other times though, after long several day hunts, you’re pinching your nose and saying things like, “You know I love you, but if you don’t take a shower in the next 30 seconds, I’m gonna start gagging.” Maybe if he’s particularly peckish be might try to chase you and kiss you in a but don’t you want me? kinda way

That being said, Din does keep up with himself. Less on the “I need to lotion up after a shower” and more on the “my nails and hair are getting long, I must cut them now.” Din cant afford an ingrown toenail pestering his feet when he’s walking on foot for three days. If his feet are cracked to canyons, he will treat and dress them properly. Din knows full well that the body is also a weapon, and it’s just as important to stay as clean as his rifles. Sure, circumstances prevent the immediate self care. He’s on a hunt, he’s wounded but he needs shelter, rations are low but he’s got to keep the kid’s belly full. But Din knows that if he doesn’t take care of himself soon, things will start falling apart, fast. Maintenance on himself is the only form of self care he allows for himself.

That is, until you. The image that I’m getting is kinda like this (and it might not flow like I want it to outta my head, so the wording might be crude): He didn’t know he had been neglecting the “passion” self care until he was met with those feelings front and center in his life. Mainly because he didn’t feel as passionately with himself rather than with you. But once y’all got the ball rolling, he indulged so much, filling in the missed time he should have spent with himself. It was the first time he ever over indulged with what he wanted. His reasoning (and it would be correct) was that he was also doing it for you. In logistical terms, taking care of his crew. Obviously he viewed you more than his crew and more than just self care (and he would tell you so), it was much deeper than that. But denying himself of these feelings for so long, he had to break it down in the way he knew how to first.

Oftentimes after sex and holding each other, you would clean each other off if it was a particularly messy session. At the first few times, he would scrub you down less gently than you would have hoped. In his mind, ensuring without a doubt that you would get clean was a love language. It wasn’t until you slowly and carefully lathered Din and massaged his hair with shampoo when he thought wait a minute, I’ve been doing this wrong

It was a really sweet realization that dawned on you when Din started taking longer showers that he was finally broadening his self care and being just a little more selfish in his life. After all, you thought, he deserves it.

It may have been intended as an honor, but the Armorer sending Bo-Katan out to "unite both worlds" felt extremely cruel to me.

Bo-Katan had found people who accepted her without needing to prove her worth. Her past deeds and mistakes were irrelevant; the only thing that mattered was her current actions.

Her need to liberate and free people saved innocent lives. She led a small group on a mission, but was not forced the responsibility to command the entire clan alone.

Bo-Katan was finally starting to feel like she belonged and was part of a family again.

And then the Armorer tells Bo-Katan she is not like the others. Her history and knowledge of the outside is a tool that can further their goals. She "walks both worlds", but she cannot live in theirs.

Bo-Katan might want to reclaim Mandalore as her birthright, but that should not be a requirement to be loved.

Under the cut because spoilers...

Am I the only one feeling the disconnect between the Din who we've been shown fights and wins against incredible odds, and this damsel in distress type idiot?

#look #I know we give him crap about being a dumbass #and I'm not against seeing my tin can wounded and needing help #just felt a little...off? #the mandalorian spoilers #ish #like over and over again #though it was an amazing episode #and don't give me “he wasn't familiar with mandalore” because he wasn't familiar with most of the other places too

actually, his name is Yogurt. its just that Ahsoka misunderstood him and now he has to live with the consequences.

#grogu #star wars: the mandalorian #i got home ate and started watching ESB so i saw boba so im feeling okay-ish now #or okay enough to do some joking #still really upset but. oh well.
