crucial alpha-17 fact (to me) is that he does not think of himself as impossible to love. he knows people love him. his batchmates love him. obi-wan loves him. cody loves him. he simply thinks he is incapable of returning that love.
people can love him all they want! but something something faulty incubation chamber, too many pieces taken out of his genome, whatever. he's human, yes. but not enough to love like humans are supposed to love.
I heard my boy was getting a fandom revival. This is my contribution <3

these three are besties. it's just canon
I’ve always personally headcanoned that if Mandalorians DID have certain stereotypical family/relationship roles it wouldn’t be anywhere close to gendered, like one person is the man and one person is the woman. It would be like, one person is the shield and one person is the sword. One is the guard and one is the hunter. The bigger and stronger of the two — traditionally, though obviously every marriage would be different and most wouldn’t conform exactly, especially with polyamory — might be the one to stay home and guard the kids and the clan. While the faster, more maneuverable and perhaps deadlier of the two went out and hunted, provided, initiated raids. A Mandalorian couple fighting together would be so dangerous for so many reasons but principally because if they’re both there it probably means you’re on their territory and both the guard and the hunter are after you, and now you’re seriously fucked.
Thinking about the clones after the war, not having actual last names and some coming up with ones to go by. What’s cute is that anyone a clone ends up marrying they’d just take that last name. Cody Kenobi, Bly Secura, cute stuff like that. Maybe some even adopt the name of their generals as a sign of honor, then there are ones that try to make one’s up
Ahsoka: what if your name was Rex Dex?
Rex: no
Somewhere I heard that the traditional T-shaped visor worn by the Fetts and Din Djarin is best suited for long range precision shooting while the more leaf-shaped design worn by Bo Katan is preferable for hand-to-hand combat. This, combined with the fact that we almost exclusively see the former worn by male Mandalorians and the latter by female Mandalorians, implies that the traditional gender roles of Mandalorian society are "melee" and "ranged" and I just think that's lovely
If ur in the epic discord you've seen this dumb thing already but here it is again
