I think maybe everyone should cool it with the “weird cult” comments regarding the covert, honestly. It wasn’t that funny to begin with but now that it’s the popular describer it’s starting to become a little uncomfy. No one is forced to join, no one is forced to stay. There’s a ton of parallels between them and real world cultures and religions and I just think MAYBE we need to be a little more aware of what message we’re sending when we say “haha that group of people who are in hiding because their lives were/are at stake and who practice anonymity to survive and follow certain rules that I don’t personally understand or like are a weird cult”.

i am very weak for a specific kind of din-centric romance that i’ve yet to see anywhere (probably because it would be tedious to write). i want din to have an Arthurian romance where his Creed and his besk’ad are not obstacles for his partner to vault over into his arms, but part of him, more of him to love. i want din to have a romance where they will love him whether or not they ever get to see his face, or touch his skin, because when din said the helmet is my true face he meant it, and when his paramour said they loved all of him, they meant that, too. the Creed is his blood and the besk’ad his skin and his heart the steady tattoo blasterfire and his soul is the manda and to love a true mandalorian is to love them because of the old ways, not in spite of them. din may walk the galaxy’s gray meridian but his faith in the Creed is absolute. to love him you have to love him for that faith, too.

i’m (mostly????) a mando season three enjoyer, but the creative Choices™ are reaching a level that can only be explained by the decade or more away “this is what it was actually like at lucasfilm during the era of bob chapek, a panini, and g*na c@rano blowing up her own career (and maybe also some narrative plans)” exposé

I actually like that the mandalorian s3 gives us a character who can ultimately decide he isn’t a leader nor ready for that. He doesn’t want to be. That’s okay. And he certainly doesn’t have to be in the name of character development as people argue. He’s just a dude- he’s become a father, THAT is the development, and it’s still continuous in how he’s going to navigate that life post finale. They have their house and he’s officially his son, what’s so wrong with that???
