#myles and jango

[notthestarwar]

i hope that you guys know that when i talk about love i'm not talking about romance. i'm talking about a thing that goes beyond the boundaries of 'romantic' or 'familial' or 'platonic'. it's the thing that lives inside of all of us, thats inate in all human beings. its not about your relationship to that person. its about finding a thing, or a animal or a person, and feeling something ancient for them, in spite of your relationship. when people talk about romantic love they often arent actually talking about love. its a copy of a copy.

theres something inside all of us, that in the right circumstances will have you do the impossible to try and save someone, or even just to show them a bit of kindness when you know they cant be saved. you dont need to share blood for that to come in to being, you dont need to be attracted to them, you dont even need to like them. sometimes, something happens to bring it out in you and then its just there. you want the best for them (even if you might not know what that is) and you are suddenly willing to go beyond the limits of what it means to be human to make that happen.

most of the time the circumstances of the moment dont require any supernatural feat. but if they did, you might just try. its not a conscious thing. you just would. because the moment you love someone, be they a stranger on a bus, family, your partner, your friend, or just an acquaintance of circumstance; you're unconciously reminded that to love is to BE human. we live in order to love. you'd do the impossible, because you'd do anything to keep that love alive, because if not, why are you living? why have you survived up until that point and what is the point of continuing to do so.

Cursory research into the meanings of Mandalorian armour colours...

Black - ne'tra = justice, an unshakeable moral code (also wanting to avoid stains on your clothes)

White - cin vhetin = a fresh start or clean slate (good for converts/adult adoptions)

Grey - genet = mourning a loved one (or recently rejected)

Gold - ve'vut = vengeance (a warning colour)

Silver - shev'la beskar = unpainted armour, a search for redemption (Din Djarin's guilt complex, anyone?)

Bronze - tranyc'bes - nobility and high status (favoured by stuck-up self-important jackasses)

Brown - daryc - valour, galantry, The Audacity (particularly when associated with them cunty lil jedi cape drops)

Tan - vhekadla - loyalty (lit. 'sandy' but I don't like sand, it's coarse and rough and...)

Maroon - daryc'tal - power (all hail Maroon 5, our benevolent overlords)

Red - ge'tal = honouring a parent (very popular, 10/10)

Scarlet - galar'tal - defiance and relentlessness (Mandalorian Scarlett Johansson omfg be still my bi heart)

Orange - shereshoy = shereshoy, a lust for life (the party people)

Yellow - shi'yayc - remembrance, burnt out vengeance (makes for funky funerals)

Mint green - cin vorpan - lust for peace, guardians and peacekeepers (does not necessarily mean I want to fuck guardians and peacekeepers, get your head outta the gutter)

Green - vorpan = duty, commitment and hard work (favourite of farmers, too)

Teal - jahaal = healing, violence as a last resort, I've seen some shit and now I defend peace (favoured by healers and New Mandalorians)

Blue - kebiin = reliability and faithfulness (favoured by single parents)

Sky blue - kebii'tra = new love, newlyweds, marriage and all that fluffy stuff (Satine's famous jewellery TCW S2 - ObiTine for the soul)

Indigo - jiisaviin = prosperity, victory, the feeling that we have achieved our hopes (tempting fate, perhaps)

Lilac - saviin = luck, change, survival in adversity, hope for the future (associated with the old God of Luck)

Pink - cin ge'tal - respect and knowledge, a fusion of past and future (associated with journalists and academics)

Ofc this is a rough guide and if anyone either doesn't like my sense of humor or wants more detailed information, check out these posts too: x x x

Jango shrugs, looking down at the counter. He doesn't need to keep wiping it down, but he needs… something, to keep his hands busy. "Said I stole the armour," he says, somehow managing to keep his voice steady. "Never heard where I stole it from. Battlefield, maybe. No Mandalorian would leave his beskar'gam with an outsider." "That's bullshit," Myles says, more vehemently than Jango's ever heard him. He smacks his plates down in the sink, hard enough that Jango expects them to crack. "I was there." "I know." "You," Myles says, pointing at him, other hand on his hip. "You were given your armour by the mand'alor himself. Our mand'alor." He pauses, a moment, and his face softens. "And it was the greatest day of his life."

[formlessvoidbeast]

“Let me feel,” Jango gestured between them, requesting Obi-Wan unblock their bond.

It felt nothing like the push that had driven them to Sundari. There was a Presence. A second sun, like Tatooine's, was burning down on them.

“What is that?” Jango breathed, looking up like he could see through the layers of the Keep to the sky.

“Ba'—” Obi-Wan stopped, a flicker of grief passing through the bond before it was gone. “That is a jetii who wants to be noticed.”

why are there more fics in the Master Si and Dooku tag than Myles and Jango?????????

Myles and Jango from my fic, Haastal Mirjahaal

[mocking-the-bird]

I'm gonna have an aneurysm trying to understand mandalorians age.

It appears that the easiest one by far is Jango – he's well known and has a distinct birth date. I still can't see him being 14 at the time of Jaster's death purely because of the comics (love art in it a lot but he looks like he can legally drink come on), but it's a fact.

Jaster seems to be in his mid-life crisis. I don't know a lot about Concord Dawn but I highly doubt that he could become a Journeyman Protector younger than in his 20s. Then he had to work some time before being exiled, then spend uncounted amount of years fighting with mandalorians until around 60 BBY he became Mand'alor. His death being in 52 BBY makes him at least 35.

Montross is just ancient.

Silas is causing me so much headache. As we know, art in comics shouldn't be something we rely on (unfortunately), so his young adult appearance may be not true. He joined mandalorians 6 years before Jaster's death (making it 58 BBY), but mandalorians don't seem to have age regulations about who can join them, so it's not really helpful. Silas admires Jango, calling him "the greatest mandalorian who ever lived" and following his commanding. In the wookiepedia, Jango also described as his mentor. Now that is interesting, because Jango himself is 14 in that moment. I don't think that age really matters in mandalorian almost non-existent hierarchy, but being someone's mentor is a lot more than just a commander. Which makes Silas around the same age as Jango or not a lot older. I see him being 18-20, judging by his personality and relationships with others.

Kal Skirata thank you for existing and being such a good person with established birth date. He was born in 82 BBY, and at the time of Jaster's death it makes him 30. Nice and simple. Silas, take notes.

Myles... Myles is a mystery flavour, you see. While writing this I had to go and read Open Season for the fifth time (what am I doing with my life) to clear my memory and yes, he shows up only in 3rd comics, where Jango is clearly older. There are other mandalorians with blue armour in previous comics, but we don't have any confirmation that this is Myles and not some random dude with similar appearance. It's interesting, because a lot of fanfiction that I've read included Myles under Jaster's command or even as his right hand. I see him being older than Jango, maybe 20-25 around 52 BBY

[youeverjustmarryabountyhunter]

Recently became obsessed with cowboy au's again so I did what any reasonable person would do and made a silly Clone Wars au for pure self indulgence.

Please enjoy my silly little headcannons and maybe one day I'll actually write the thing (I've said this several times before...but one day!)

•Usually with modern au's I try to justify why Jango has so many damn kids but not this time. The man just does okay? Also he's not attracted to women so like..who knows! My favorite plot point is Jango just has a bunch of kids and no one knows why and they just have to accept that

•Jango/Myles supremacy. They're married, thank you. Silas is their third wheel that's just always sorta there.

•Good dad Jango! Always good dad Jango. I just love him okay? It's like a little treat for myself.

•Ages are like...semi...cannon? For the clones the alphas are all adults, as are the commanders. After that, Rex, Kix, Jesse and whoever else I deem to be in that like age range- are 18/19/20. Domino squad, are teenagers. Tup, Dogma, Wooley, Comet are like..ranging from preteen's to 8. Boba is the baby at 3 years old. Don't ask me about Omega or the bad batch please I haven't decided what I'm doing with them yet, probably gonna make them Arla's kiddos like the other modern au of mine. These are also like..just a general guidelines of ages I haven't really fleshed anything out.

•Boba LOVES animals. It's a good thing they live on a farm. He just..befriends all of the animals even the ones that he isn't supposed to (raccoons) Jango nearly had a heart attack. Boba was fine though, just a little grumpy that Jango took him away from the raccoon.

•It's a miracle Boba knows how to walk because he's just constantly being carried/demanding to be carried. If he has the option to be in someone's arms he will be. Spoiled little thing. Honestly all of the Fett kids are probably spoiled, but they like to tease Boba about it cause he's the baby.

•Real talk though, I think Boba is a little sweety. He just loves his aliit(family) so much and wants to spend all his time with them.

•Mando'a is a language because I said so. Mandalorians are still a culture. That's just my go to for all modern au's tbh.

•Jaster is the best grandpa EVER. He's the reason they're all spoiled. Auntie Zam ALSO spoils them rotten. Uncle Bossk does as well it's just a lot less. Hondo...is Hondo let's be honest here. They're spoiled sure but Jango would really like to know WHERE Hondo got everything from (he would not like the answer)

•I haven't figured out how or anything but Codywan IS happening. Same with Blyla (is that Aayla and Bly's ship name?? Gonna pretend it is-)

•In the vain of keeping ages semi cannon Fennec is 19 and a farmhand 👌. She's like..not legally adopted but she might as well be. Jango's baby girl right there. Boba follows her around like a puppy and it only annoys her a little. She's definitely the reason he knows bad words let's be honest.

•I'm leaning towards most face tattoos are just birthmarks. As far as names go those are just their names. No one ever said Jango was good at naming things. Isn't there a comic in legends where they have a pet eel and it's name is just eel?

•Everything I know about 3 year olds comes from the times I have babysat actually 3 year olds and google. So in that spirit, Boba does have a paci in the art depicted below simple because I wanted to draw a pacifier- but Jango is also trying to ween him off it so he doesn't mess up his teeth.

This au has consumed me like..ugh I'm obsessed with it. There may or may not be a pinterest board just entirely dedicated to it. You don't understand how in love with this silly little au I am-

If you made it this far through the post- have some traditional art that may or may not get turned digital eventually! (There was one of Myles and Jango but I literally cannot decide on Myles hairstyle and couldn't erase it anymore for fear of ripping the paper so...)

Join me next time (maybe-) for when I inevitably think of more headcannons for this au.

In order: Jango and Boba, Jango braiding Fennec's hair, and Cody!

A Star Wars ficlet for @duckprintspress' May Trope Mayhem, about an unnamed Mandalorian and their Force-sensitive foundling! 1.5k words, G, no warnings. Can be seen as a sequel to the Obi-Wan ficlet I wrote for the Stowaway prompt, but also works as a standalone - you can imagine whichever force sensitive kid and mando you like best :)

Cross-posted to Ao3!

Mando'a translations are at the bottom of the post.

~~~

The foundling was a strange adiik. Much too well spoken for one so young, and with a strange mixture of Mando'a, accented with a mix of Kalevala, Sundari and Concord Dawn; Basic, and some languages the senshaad had never heard the sound of before.

An ik'aad this small shouldn't speak in full sentences in four or more languages, that was strange for a human, wasn't it? Then again, maybe not so human, it's not like they had a scanner on their ship to check. Perhaps that would be the mystery solved, then... But the verd couldn't think of a near-human or really even any species at all that would fit all of the youngling's oddities.

It wasn't just the skill with languages, or the fact that the ad'ika had made their way to them all on their lonesome without getting into trouble or even just getting lost... There were other strange happenings as well.

~

It took them a while to realize that the adiik was heavily ka'ra-touched - they didn't display any of the usual signs.

Coming from a large clan with many younglings, they had seen a number of ka'ra-touched ade in their life. In their clan, the ade were supervised more heavily so any outbursts wouldn't put them or anyone else in danger, and the surroundings would be child-proofed in special ways, with beskar reinforcing if necessary. Those ade who seemed to be negatively affected by the force would be helped by beskar blockings on their own person, those who were fine were left largely on their own devices until they were old enough to find someone to train what skills they had, be that as a goran, a verd or senshaad, a vhett or any kind of trader or artisan. If they wanted to learn to use their ka'ra powers for their trade, someone would be found to reach them.

Perhaps the system wasn't perfect, but at least they didn't cut off their younglings from the ka'ra and the Manda entirely when they proved troublesome, or chucked them onto some kind of Force sects. In their travels, the senshaad had seen it all - and from the looks of it, this adiik had seen the worst kind of reaction to their powers.

~

Perhaps that was the reason for their strange control - a trauma, that kept their ka'ra trapped inside?

Because - they didn't make things float uncontrollably, or rattle the furniture with nightmares, short out electronic or magnetic devices, complain of nightmares or get lost in daydreams... No, at first they in fact seemed like an ad that wasn't touched by the ka'ra at all, which made the strange happenings all the stranger.

At first these things didn't seem connected to the adiik. Things that had been broken the day before suddenly being fixed, leaving the senshaad to wonder whether they had only dreamed the incident. The course of the ship changing when they weren't looking, when no-one had been around - except for the adiik, but surely a tiny little ad couldn't have reprogrammed the hyperjump? They didn't even consider the possibility. At their destination, they found the parts they sought for a much better price than expected at their usual source... and later, they heard that at their original destination a collision had occurred that they would have crashed right into. They called it a gift from the Manda and tried to shrug it off.

They weren't quite able to shrug off the next incidents...

When pirates intercepted the ship on their way further away from the core, blaster bolds just wouldn't hit the senshaad and the ad, and they were able to defeat the pirates with little trouble despite the overwhelming numbers of their opponents. Weren't jetiise and dar'jetiise supposedly able to defend from blaster fire in some way? And while the ikaad was much too young to have had jetii training, perhaps it was something intrinsic to ka'ra-touched ade, some sort of survival instinct. Whatever happened - the senshaad knew it hadn't been them, so it could have only been the foundling - an ad who, to their knowledge, had displayed no ka'ra touched behavior whatsoever until then.

Maybe they weren't so strong in the Force, or maybe those powers could be charged like a battery and then used up, and the adiik had used everything up when fleeing from their dar'buire, had then saved up again until the fight? Oh, they really needed to contact the goran soon, or anyone who knew more about the ka'ra...

Then, at a pit stop on a rural little planet, a giant fucking creature with more teeth than anything else was about to charge at them when it suddenly froze, tugged tail and turned around, beating a hasty retreat. And sure, maybe the beast had had a run-in with a Mando'ad before and remembered them to be too hard to be tasty and liable to cause injury besides, but that still didn't warrant this kind of reaction. And there was no-one else there that could have scared it off - no-one except for the adiik, who stared in the direction of the beast with a fierce, almost glazed expression as they forced the beast into submission.

The senshaad couldn't kid themselves into believing that their foundling wasn't very strong in the ka'ra, after that.

~

From then on, they started to pay more attention to their new ad, and saw how they interacted with the world around them in a way that was just a bit strange.

It was the little things that clued the senshaad in, made them realize that the adiik must be star-touched.

They seemed to see things that weren't there, their eyes moving past a person to something just beside or behind them. Sometimes they wouldn't register a question directed their way at all, and other times they would answer before the words had been spoken aloud.

The senshaad didn't have many toys on the ship at first, not having planned to adopt just yet, and so they let the adiik play with some of the not so dangerous tools for ship or armor repairs instead. Quite often, the foundling would lose interest in a piece just before the senshaad would have had to ask the ad for it because they needed it for their work...

The ikaad also shied away from seemingly innocuous objects and places - innocuous only until the senshaad remembered that silver spoon had been part of his haul from a pirate's bounty, and the marketplace the ad refused to put a foot on had been the place of a massacre just weeks before. When they asked the ad about the spoon, they replied without pause that it had belonged to a slaver before coming into their possession. They did not ask the ad how they knew it, at this point the reason was all too clear, and it wasn't like the ad would even know what the ka'ra or the Manda even was. Then again... Perhaps they did know, like they knew so many things an adiik should have no knowledge of. Like the distance between certain stars, and the components of explosives, and that they needed to replace a part of their armor soon if they didn't want to become vulnerable in a spot that could be lethal if injured.

They had to admit they were unsettled, if just a little, and asking themselves how the other buire did it, with adike so different to themselves. Then again, perhaps they could not have answered them. After all, the foundling was so very different from anyone they had ever met, ka'ra- touched or not.

Still, giving the ad up was not an option, and not just because it would go against their honor and Mando'ad. The little one was much too copik'la to even think of sending them away, with their bright eyes and inquisitive mind. Even if their eyes were almost too bright, their questions too intelligent for one so young... The ad'ika was mando'karla, was sure to have a wonderful future as Mando'ad, a future as bright as their strange, watchful eyes. 

~~~

Mando'a:

Senshaad - Pilot

Adiik/ad - child, ik'aad - toddler/baby, ad'ika - child (affectionate), ade - children

ka'ra - stars/the Force

Manda - religious Force concept, the council of fallen Mand'alors

goran - blacksmith, verd - fighter, vhett - farmer

Jetiise - Jedi (plural), dar'jetiise - Sith/darksider (plural)

buire - parents, dar'buire - former parents, abusive parents

copik'la - adorable

mando'karla - to have the right stuff, to have what it takes to be mandalorian

Mando'a is a gender neutral language, and as the pilot thinks in Mando'a and doesn't trouble themselves with finding out a toddler's gender identity, I've been using they/them for both of them for this fic, tho obviously it's in English with just a couple words in Mando'a, else most of you couldn't read it and frankly I'd also have trouble writing it xD

Jaster, Myles, and Feemor duking it out after Savage snitched on Obi and Jango for having foundlings:

[seven-oomen]

It's probably my own fault for reading star wars fic. But I got inspired by a fic where myles and Jango hire Obi-Wan for a night to do the horizontal tango and that spirals into obi getting pregnant and having their kids and becoming their rid riduur. But it's unfinished but awesome. Great fic.

Then I started thinking, so what if Obi-Wan didn't have to sell his own body but plays the sabbac tables and Myles the pantoran mandalorian catches him and propositions him like, hey, see my friend over there (pointing to a disguised jango), yeah we're looking for a hot, smart guy like you to spend a night with us. What do you think?

And at first, Obi-Wan is like... dude I'm not a prostitute. (He needs money though, he is considering it).

But then myles goes: oh no no no I know, we're not trying to buy you, we just want to have fun, and in exchange you'll get like, whatever you want. Except an assassination or whatever. But like food, credits, medicine, that kind of thing.

And Obi-Wan agrees. He sleeps with them, gets a bunch of extra credits. Loses his virginity (he's 20, Jango and Myles are 33 and 30 respectively). Gets knocked up but doesn't know it yet. The usual.

He skedaddles out of town with Satine, who he's protecting. But then Death Watch is on his ass again and he has to fight them off. And guess who's been watching him??? Right the two dudes who fucked him a little while back.

So then Obi-Wan gets invited back to keldabe with Satine. And he finds out that, guess what, those dudes he fucked, yeah, they're the mand'alor and riduur. Whoops.

But at least the mand'alor's father Jaster (who is alive but retired in this, don't ask why just roll with it) really likes him and so do Jango's sisters Arla and Astra. And Obi-Wan finds himself navigating this entire shit show of mandalorian politics, family dynamics, a polyamorous relationship, and force knows what else gets thrown his way.

And anyway, that's what I'm working on.

[padawansuggest]

How the dynamic of Obi-Wan being adopted by the Mand’alor should go

Jaster: *just adopted Obi last week* :)

Jango: *has been attempting fratricide for a whole week* :/

Obi-Wan: *has been waking up with Jango’s arm in between in fangs for a week but new big brother is so nice he hasn’t told on him once* :)

Jaster: :) my ade are so cute and perfect and deserve the universe :)

Myles: *watching Jango in the background start another round of Cain and Abel with Obi-Wan* Yeah. They’re like feisty kittens. It’s pretty adorable.

Jaster: So adorable.

After some conjecture about how large a forge it must have taken to make a door and columns of pure beskar, and also how common it had been that such a wealth of the metal was used in construction, Styhl fitted their fingers to the handle hidden in the artwork. “Now, with this style of door mechanism, if it still worked, you'd just give a tug here and—” Styhl gave a hard yank, and yelped as the door slid seamlessly open and they fell through. Jango bit his lip, trying not to laugh aloud.
