weary, injured, superpower-less men with graying hair and a dry sense of humor who use their wits against enemies much stronger than them. who risk their lives to protect others but don't always consider themselves heroes, sometimes justifiably. who somehow end up as the mentor slash father figure for a talented and idealistic kid who either has superpowers or is into archery
we all bounce from media hyperfixation to media hyperfixation but we retain our Types of character who we consistently become obsessed with
Got called a weirdo irl for the way I write my fics sooo
I am the “writes in document tabs” if anyone’s wondering
Everything casts two shadows. “Kenobi” by John Jackson Miller
i actually dont have strong feelings about the edits done to the OT but i will defend the hayden force ghost thing to the death purely because seeing grown men fail to comprehend the world's most heavy handed symbolism is entertainment you dont get anywhere else
a tiny detail from the mandalorian soundtrack that i love: one of the recurring sounds in the track “capture the flag” in chapter 14 is actually the tie fighter sound effect. it starts as din leaves grogu to check on the new fighter that’s just landed, foreshadowing the imperials coming to take grogu when he’s not there.
it’s so cool. like, the line between sound effect and soundtrack is blurred. reminds me of chapter 16 where the sounds of the dark troopers booting up are also part of a song, “activated”. it makes the action way more intense because you can’t really separate what you’re seeing from what you’re hearing.
ten credits says when din finally paints his armor it'll be purple because he's not like other mandalorians
romance is lame and overrated i love mentor/mentee relationships in fiction and especially when theyre sort of fucked up

why does every sleeping at last song fit din so perfectly???
so slowly i'm losing who i've sworn to be. a promise in pencil that years have made so hard to read. i've spent my life building walls brick by brick and bruise by bruise... a birdcage religion that whispered me to sleep.

all of a sudden, you changed my mind. pulled back the curtains a little at a time.
through the static, through the ashes we were brave. through the perils of endless narrow escapes, we’re still here. we’re still here.
- we’re still here
like. does anyone else see it? i only discovered sleeping at last today and my “din djarin vibes” playlist has already doubled in size.
though your heart is far too young to realize the unimaginable light you hold inside,
i’ll give you everything i have. i’ll teach you everything i know. i promise i’ll do better. i will always hold you close, but i will learn to let you go.

YES that is EXACTLY how din feels about grogu.
