yes, yes, boba fett finds it strange and uncomfortable when people can see his face and this is one of the major reasons he almost never removes his helmet (in the expanded universe anyway), but another factor that i think isn't explored nearly enough is just how much his helmet shapes how he sees the world. it grants him 360° vision, lets him interface with his weapon systems and slave I, and automatically dampens loud noises and dims bright lights. imagine going through the vast majority of your life seeing the world through that lens and then suddenly taking it away. removing his helmet for any significant length of time likely isn't just uncomfortable for him but downright disorienting.

#boba fett #boba fett meta #so much is made of how mandalorian helmets have all these powerful‚ often perception-altering features #and how many mandalorians spend the majority of their lives wearing them #i'm surprised there aren't more references to the difficulties such mandos might have adjusting to NOT wearing them #not just socially but like on a sensory level #there's one description in the boba fett junior novels that i really love #where bitty!boba gets his helmet knocked off his head by another bounty hunter #and the barrage of light and sound is compared to water being poured over his face #like it's that jarring to him #and that's when he was still a kid and hadn't yet experienced literal years of wearing his helmet every day!#so imagine what it's like for him when he's an adult making that transition #star wars #mandalorians

Mandalorian Jetpacks

Happy Fett Friday! SO glad the lore now allows Mandalorian Jetpacks to fly for longer periods of time.

Even though I ❤️ playing Star Wars Bounty Hunter way back in the day, I absolutely HATED how you were granted only mere seconds of flight time before your jetpack would shut off & force you to land so that it could re-charge/ cool-off from overheating.

In Attack of the Clones, after Jango Fett eliminated Zam Wesell with a Saber Dart, his Jetpack allowed a very quick escape from Obi-Wan & Anakin. And it was a QUICK escape. Unlike in Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Jango didn't fly for a few seconds, then land to let his Jetpack recharge, then fly for a few more seconds, then land again, then fly a little bit more, then once again land, and then….

Hell, he never would have made it out of there if he had to do keep doing that slow-ass shit…

This is what happened. Jango took off. The sound of his Jetpack igniting drew the attention of Obi-Wan & Anakin. They observed Jango flying up higher & higher, furthering the distance between them so rapidly the Jedi realized that a pursuit at that point would be futile.

That's why it felt good to finally see Mandos airborne for extended periods. Throughout The Mandalorian TV series Boba Fett, Din Djarin, Bo-Katan, The Armorer & many other Mandalorians propelled themselves through the air & kicked shebs. During the Battle of Mandalore, it was so awesome to witness waves of Mandos that flew high above Mandalore, engage the Empire in battle & take back their homeworld. Because Mandalorians are stronger together....

din djarin, age 10: clone wars refugee child

boba fett, age 11: in federal prison for destroying an entire venator while trying to kill mace windu

#star wars #din djarin #boba fett #redbean talks #meanwhile jango; age 14: the actual mand'alor #very funny to realize that din and boba are almost the same age #when you look at the difference in what they were doing for most of the clone wars #din at age ten was a small frightened child hiding from super battle droids behind a space dumpster(?)#boba at age ten was jangos copilot/getaway driver for jedi-hunting missions (and also an equally small child)#then three years later was a full blown crime boss and involved in human trafficking #i really want to see more of the mundane conversations about raising grogu #like among the mandos there's #din (children of the watch hardcore mando): i must teach my small son to shoot #boba (literally-lifelong bounty hunter raised in child soldier central): do you want recommendations for good starting blasters #bo katan: i asked the armorer to make a custom set of knives too btw #the armorer (already made armor for small son): dont you think he needs a flametrhower for his birthday #and then the Associates #they've got ig11 (trigger happy assassin droid); fennec (experienced bounty hunter who fought cad bane at age early-20s?)#krrsantan (crazy gladiator probably-madclaw); koska (tackled boba as an introduction); axe (stabbed paz over a game of chess)#and then. there is Luke.#imagine everyone pondering over how to modify a disruptor rifle to fit very small arms #(because boba's absolutely going to spoil his small green nephew)#and luke just in the background like 'maybe we should. not? give the preschooler a deadly weapon? this is not safe?'#din: eh he's smart he'll be fine #luke; fearing for his life: it's not him im worried about-

the mandalorians are factured... a broken people. they struggle to decide who they are. we fight for honor. for purpose. not that I would expect you to understand.

5 + 1 Fic Friday Roundup: Reality TV Setting

Some fics where they participate in a reality television show.

By Any Other Name (AO3) - "Through some freak accident of the universe, Dabi has been invited to compete on The Bachelorette. Have they actually seen his face? Surprisingly yes, and they still want him. For this season they apparently need a ‘bad boy’ to both balance out the hero contestant (why in hell is Hawks involved?) and to trash talk the show in interviews to appeal to audiences who don’t like the scripting. Getting sent on a vacation away from his annoying bandmates to complain and eat as much free food as he wants? Sold."

Loose yourself (to the music) (AO3) - "A singing competition is something that Dabi would have normally dismissed, but the prospect of free food made him check it out. It gets him half a bag of chips, the start of a friendship with a giant of a woman, and a roof over his head. Now he just has to win round after round to keep it all as long as possible. Lucky him, being dramatic and hardworking is basically his motto."

From Messiest Bro to Hottest Hoe (AO3) - "Himura Touya got nominated for QueerEye by his siblings, gay chaos ensues"

More Than a Murderbot (AO3) - "The Fab Five head out for a rather unusual transport and research vessel to help their first-ever Sec Unit client learn how to take some time for self-care and feel like it has a place to belong."

The Consequences of Being Seen (AO3) - "Din Djarin is a bounty hunter desperately trying to make a few extra bucks by streaming his bounties on the holonet. Boba Fett is a veteran hunter with a cult following returning to the holos after 10 years out of the game. First, they run into each other on the opposite ends of a high-paying job. Then... things get interesting."

Bonus: Keeping Up With the Todorokis (AO3) - "Endeavor was one of the few heroes with such a high ranking and who has a family. Naturally, the public is interested in the lives of the famous Todoroki family. With such a cold image to the public, the agency decides that Endeavor has to do something to win people's love and popularity. Endeavor agrees, keeping in mind that the world will know the Todoroki's best kept secret. Todoroki Touya." Set to Private

Mandalorian Bounty Hunter Jango Fett & The Clones

Wanted to post this to show that during his origin story in the classic 2002 video game Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Jango Fett did indeed care about the Clones. Jango said he was "proud" of them; he even let this be known to his son Boba Fett.

(Unlike the in-universe narrative claiming Jango cared nothing about the Clones & the only Clone Jango ever cared about was Boba.)

In the following Cutscene Storyboards from Star Wars Bounty Hunter, Mandalorian Bounty Hunter (And Prime Clone Template) Jango Fett said his Clones were a damn fine Army, ready for battle. When Jango discussed this with Boba, Jango told him: "You shouldn't feel sorry for them. I don't. I feel…Proud."

And I❤️this from @fox-trot talking about Jango Fett & his concerns with the lives & treatment of the Clones….

Jango Fett consistently fought the Kaminoans over reconditioning/ decommissioning. In the early days he managed to convince the Kaminoans to change the expected standard, allowing for more leniency regarding deviations in physical appearance, speech patterns, behavior, temperament, etc. This saved many lives. He also regularly stepped in & rescued clones scheduled to be reconditioned for ‘aberrant’ behavior or mental health concerns. The Null ARCs & Delta Squad were saved from death because of his intervention. He also had a secret operation where he smuggled at-risk clones off of Kamino.
