Mandalorian More Like Man-Dad-Lorian

Dooku:…what are you doing

Obi-Wan, panicking slightly: I’m a double agent. Passing them bad intel.

Dooku: I didn’t ask you to do that

Obi-Wan: …i’m taking initiative????

Dooku:

Dooku: My boy would never do such a thing

So we also have an unhinged (but in the OTHER direction) Anakin chasing Obi-Wan across the galaxy going: 'Come back to the light side, Master, you're my brother!'

Even in found-family stories, every character has to have a label on what they are in the family unit. Which begin to resemble nuclear family type structures. This character has to be a father, this character has to be a mother, this character has to be a partner, this character has to be a sibling. The Jedi are a community and exist as a family. But that doesn't fit with the western idea of a family so in fandom people tend to smash them into those labels.

Echo *sprawled on his bunk*: You could not.

Jesse *scoffing*: You would lose straight away.

Fives *points at him*: I said I could fight one, I didn't say I would win.

Echo *facepalms*: Di'kut.

Hardcase *sits up, filled with overconfidence*: I would win.

Tup *throws a boot a him*: You would not. Go back to sleep.

Fives and Hardcase *discussing (quite loudly) how they would fight a Wookie*

Rex *opens the door to the barricks*: If I get you a Wookie to fight will you all go to sleep and shut up?

Kix *who just wants to sleep*: I'm not patching any of you up if you go and fight a Wookie.

Because apparently someone checked and that number was blacklisted, so it's kind of an urban legend with clones, and a way to get off the hook for any damages/costs/repercussions.

Until one day, a griselled old clone shows up at 79's looking like an absolute BAMF. I mean this guy makes Woolfe look like a tiny puppy.

Scorched, scratched and tagged armour, shaggy beard, scars all over his face, just one seriously badass looking clone.

And he starts (or more finishes before it started) a fight, and when the droid behind the bar asks for his CT number, cool as a cucumber and without flinching, he replies in a gravelly voice:

"CT-6969."

And the entire bar goes silent, just staring at him while he looks around, grinning.

So when he goes to leave, a shiny gets pushed in front of him by his batch and stammers out the question; 'Are you him?'

- everyone thinks Hardcase is the silliest clone.

- it's actually Rex.

- he is uber commited to his duty, but part of what makes him such a great leader is that he has a quality that just makes you fcking love him.

- he has ridiculously good natural comedic timing. He chooses the perfect times to use humour to keep morale up without realising he's doing it.

- he's super goofy. He dad dances in the middle of 79's and you bet he knows the whole rap in Waterfalls.

- he's got a lil bit of that sass! It gets worse when he's drunk and Cody may or may not have seen him death drop once (three times).

How Wolffe got his scar. How Cut and Suu fell in love. The Delta Squad. The tattoo shop that all these clones seem to be hitting up. Boil and Numa reuniting (she wears what appears to be a sleeve of his armor in Rebels!). A day in the life of Commander Fox, helmetless Fox included of course.
