Okay it's official. I have a list together for @oonajaeadira's year of themes challenge, and I've chosen "Year of small joys", if only because I think I need it:
A hot meal (Din and Grogu)
Sunlight (Max Phillips)
Friendly Touch (Din Djarin)
Breathtaking sunrise (Joel and Ellie)
Stargazing (NMS Din x Reader)
Candles (Joel Miller x Reader)
Something soft (Joel and Ellie)
A cool bug (Joel x Reader, and Ellie)
Leaf pile (Joel and Ellie)
Quiet moment by the fire (Din and OC Kes)
First snow of the year (NMS Din x Reader)
A quiet night in (STA Joel x Reader)
Some of these will be the character's joy. Others will be the reader's joy. Some will be both.
(extra thanks to @grogusmum for letting me ramble myself through some ideas)
ALSO: If anyone wants to do the challenge and think small joys is one you'd like to do too, I don't mind people taking that as a launching point and picking their own small joys as challenges. <3 It's a fairly generic idea, honestly, part of why I picked it, it gives me a lot of wiggle room, so by all means if you think it would be fun for you too, I wouldn't consider it stealing my idea.

sometimes my Beloved Mutuals will rb a post about a certain character archetype and i will have to physically restrain myself from saying “yeah you would say that wouldn’t you”

I would actually make the argument that the heart of the problem here is not either about fans, as the article claims, or production companies being exploitative cowards, as some of the comments are claiming. The heart of the problem is the increasingly eroding privacy we are seeing in the modern age.
There's some people in the comments saying "fandoms have always been like this" and others saying "No, it's worse than it was." And both are to some extent right. Fans (or at least a small percentage of fans, and the larger a fanbase gets the larger a group this will describe) have always been Like That; but they did not always have the level of access to creators and actors that they have now.
The notion that a performer needs to be constantly available to public scrutiny, that their personal information should by default be available to any rando with google, is pretty new. It used to be that actors would only be expected to engage with the public on limited, specific, and controlled occasions, usually with security provided. Now they're being asked to rawdog exposure to the mob 24/7 on their own.
(Also, production companies have always always always been exploitative cowards, just to get that straight; reading the biographies of literally any actress from golden Hollywood years makes that clear. It's just, again, more public now.)
There has also been a negative feedback loop as fandoms come to realize that the constant access they have to creatives increases their leverage and power. It did not use to be the case that this was so; fandoms pre-internet largely worked under the assumption that they didn't really have any meaningful way to contact or influence the publication houses. Even if they sent a letter or a campaign of letters, they wouldn't even know whether the letters were being received or read unless the publishing house chose to respond. So, without that expectation of access, the drama usually stayed internal. Nowadays, with constant immediate feedback from creators and publishers, fans are ever more incentivized to act out to try to push an agenda, get attention, or just vent whatever is going on in their lives onto a face contractually obliged to be friendly to them.
I went down a rabbit hole of Mandalorian AUs all centered around Din and Grogu coming to Earth or an Earthling ending up in the Star Wars Galaxy. So I decided to compile them. I haven't read them all. But its a fun trope and I thought it would be fun to pull them together.
As always, mind the tags and warnings for each fic and if you enjoy them let the writer know, with comments and reblogs!
A Galaxy Far Far Away
We'll start with mine, cuz why not!
Din sets a course for a far away galaxy in an effort to keep his son safe, from bounty hunters and Imps. Unbeknownst to him he lands in the back woods of our readers home in New Hampshire USA. Its October and Halloween is right around the corner. Our reader is an OC hybrid in that while she is not physically described, she has a backstory.
Not My Stars
by @keldabe-kriff
I have read this one and LOVE it!!
An armored stranger shows up at your employer's company picnic, seeming a little lost and out of place. One act of kindness and a chance meeting later, he utters a phrase that upends your world:
"These stars are not my stars."
In what you hope is not the biggest mistake of your life, you offer him a place to stay.
Ner naak
by @ohwaitimthewriter
The fic that inspired mine! Has been on hiatus for a few years, but BAM out of the clear blue sky it's back getting updates!!
First Book: HORIZON Din Djarin meets you, an earthling, with no idea of the existence of an outer space.
In a Universe Far, Far Away
by @hdlynnslibrary Incomplete - *Permanent Hiatus* (please do not let this hinder you, it really is very fun and worth reading!!)
Chapter 1: Midnight Snack (this fic doesnt have its own masterlist, so I'm just starting you off with the forst chapter)
The night before your favorite show airs its finale for the second season you find yourself transported under stranger circumstances into a galaxy far, far away. Where everything and everyone is similar, yet different from what you were expecting.
Across An Ocean of Stars
by @orcasoul
This is one I don't know!
Nothing much happens in your small town of Eureka Springs, Arkansas, USA. All of that changed one morning when strolling in the woods, you encounter a strange metallic man and his even stranger green child...
Out of this World
by @kaysfanficcorner
Another new one for me! Din Djarin and The Child touch down on Nevarro a few months after the events of season one. Greef Karga and Cara Dune introduce him to someone with a bizarre background from a strange planet, and they ask for Din’s help to find her way home.
Country Roads
by @itsjuststardust
Also new to me!
You’re a nurse who owns and runs a farm in rural America. You’re doing the best you can to get by when Mother Nature decides to complicate your life even more than it already was by having a tornado drop a man and his radioactive Furby onto your truck. That’s it. That’s the story... Well, that’s all you had expected the story to be, something to laugh about once the shock wore off, and everyone went their separate ways. Too bad (or lucky for you, you’re still unsure), life had other plans for you, the strange armored man and his strange green sidekick.
If you have one or you know one by another writer you'd like to add, let me know.
