What if cal gave bode one of his lightsabers the other half? or?

That would've been really cool. Had Bode's identity been discovered earlier, had his fear not kept him from trusting the Hidden Path, he would've been an even more powerful ally for Cal and the Mantis Crew.

Sometimes I think about how, aside from Cere and Cal facing Vader at the end of Fallen Order, Cal has never fought alongside another lightsaber in the games. Every other saber was held to his head by an Inquisitor, a Sith Lord, a Memory, a Raider, or a Fallen Jedi.

Trilla, Masana, Ghost Tapal, Malicos, Vader, Dagan, Rayvis' Raider lieutenants, and Bode.

Cal needs powerful foes to challenge him, and allies who help but never surpass his (aka the player's) ability. Ludonarrative harmony is important when balancing the story and gameplay elements, and Cal's role as a lone warrior plays into both.

But the Jedi series also cares a lot about symbolism when it comes to lightsabers. In Fallen Order, Cal's entire character arc is represented by the condition of Jaro's saber. He wrestles with his identity throughout Survivor, and after fighting so many fallen Jedi and their kyber-bled weapons, he builds pyres for Cere, Cordova, and Bode. Any hope of a Jedi ally is gone.

Knowing Cal's saberstaff can split into two pieces, I'm curious to see if the third game would incorporate this with a (potential) Force-sensitive Kata story? But that's probably a whole different post.

Kanan: They probably have the name "Caleb Dume" on some sort of list of Jedi so I've chosen a different name and am going to fight exclusively using a blaster

Cal: Hi my name is Cal Kestis, here's my social security number and by the way have you seen my lightsaber

and that's why they're best friends <3

AU where Anakin and Owen are actually brothers like we deserved in the films. Nothing about the plot changes it just makes everything like 20% sadder. (Plus space wizard farmer family shenanigans).

I honestly believe half-brother Owen could give Anakin enough of a reality check for this to be a fix-it au LOL

Cal Kestis & Bode Akuna

I got stupidly hyperfixated on Respawn’s Star Wars game Jedi Survivor and in an attempt to purge my fixation, I’ve drawn a bunch of fan art over the holiday. Enjoy!

Three guess as to what ship I’m into hahahahah IT’S FINE I’M FINE. Also thought it would be good & nice if Trilla survived the end of Fallen Order and joined the gang. Ofc she’d immediately suss out what Bode is up to (and then everything will work out fine and everyone lives!!!!1 ugh)

And a few more sketches:

IT’S FINE I’M FINE. Thanks to all the fanfic writers who wrote fix it AU to heal my broken heart <3
