GOD AM I FEELING EMOTIONS ABOUT JASTER/DUKE THIS MORNING

(Explanation: @archangelsunited once implied the ship in a fic and I've been obsessed ever since.)

They'd have gotten married if not for Korda VI. They were working to compromise and collaborate for the good of all Mandalore, both politically and romantically. And then Jaster died.

The almost-family of it all.

Stepsiblings but not. Jango was more aware of it as it was happening and Satine only really understood later in life as a teen when her dad explained some stuff. Bo is full of resentment because Jango abandoned Mandalore and left her without a fight-y role model. Satine resents him because he was back on the scene and Doing Bounty Stuff by the time her father was assassinated and forced her to go on the run, he should have come and HELPED, either to stabilize Mandalore or to protect her.

Jango views Satine's collaboration with the Jedi and her choice to not pursue reparations for Galidraan as a personal betrayal.

God they're so fucking. Juicy

@threebea:

And literally none of them have spoken since they were all teenagers/children but they've all been stewing on it

It's like: you disappointed me in this way when the person that they're disappointed with hasn't existed for at least a decade

Pre is also there. Not involving himself with the family bullshit. He's just here to Politik.

Pre has his own bitterness about not being included. Maybe even resentful of the kryze's because Jaster and his father(or uncle or whatever Tor is) was close to Jaster for a long time until he wasn't But keeps it very cool and professional

But he looks at the scattered family and he sees something whole

God the duke Jaster and tor definitely had the world's messiest threesome at one point during like their first and only attempt at talks. It was all broke up ex hate sex and it was very good but also did not help anything at all.

#Satine’s abandonment issues? #SATINE? #Jango was a slave on a spice ship #his fucking armor was taken by tor #can you imagine being duke Kryze and sitting trying to negotiate with Jango’s armor #sitting behind the man you were negotiating? #the power play of it all #The man you thought was going to be your son #and you can’t say anything because he isn’t #then Jango strangling tor to death #feeling possessed by Jaster’s spirit #that he killed the man who was going to make peace #but also the man Jaster loved (via @archangelsunited)

I think Satine and Jango (and Bo) have equally fucked up perspectives on the abandonment part, because the girls don't know enough about Jango's trauma, and Jango's not really aware of how much they still considered him family, because Duke Kryze still viewed him as basically his kid, too.

See, from Satine's perspective, it went that her almost older brother started distancing himself from her and the family after Jaster died, and they tried to pull him back in to grieve together and provide support but he was fucked up about it, and then he died before they could convince him to even try being a unit in that way. Satine wasn't even old enough for her verd'goten when it happened.

And then he came back to the land of the living! On the scene again as a bounty hunter! And Satine and her dad keep trying to reach out, come home, please, the family misses you, even if you think Mandalore doesn't.

They don't know why he was gone! They don't know where he was! They know nothing except that he was presumed dead, and now he's alive, and they want him to come home.

And then her dad is assassinated. And she goes on the run.

And she spends a year on the run, starving, injured, desperately trying to stay alive, protected by Jedi, thinking I'm being hunted for sport and politics, where's my older brother? He must have seen on the news about Father dying. He must have seen what Death Watch is doing. He's a bounty hunter, hasn't he seen the bounty on my head?

She doesn't know what happened to him or why he stayed away or why he didn't come home.

She just knows that when she needed her older brother, he wasn't there.

God, every side of this is so fucking tragic I'm constantly chewing on them.
