#this is why y'all shouldn't get me started on blorbo opinions

Lol, you all know me too well! Great question! And sorry it took so long to answer!

In no particular order:

1- The scene during the invasion of Sundari after Death Watch "saves" the city (around 9:35 here) where she's addressing the crowd of people and basically giving a propaganda hype speech. I just love her mannerisms and attitude here. The dramatic flair. The drunk-on-power swagger. She was a villainous ham to the core in this era and I love her for it, and this scene is such a fun and interesting instance of that.

2- This brief conversation she and Pre have about whether or not to work with Maul (around 7:28 here.) One: I love that she's headstrong about her opinion and doesn't hesitate to share it. There's so much fanon around how she was a downtrodden victim with no agency in her DW era and like... that's not true at all... clearly she was comfortable challenging him and standing up for her own ideas, and here's some canon proof. Two: yes... I love this scene for shipping purposes. Epic trash power couple moment. "Mandalore will be ours" "nobody will doubt why we're in power" uh-huh. yeah. that definitely means the group and not the two of you specifically 😏😏

3- The nitearmor "remove your helmet" moment in the old forge 🏳️‍🌈👭✨ Yes, I love this scene for shipping purposes also. Thee exponential amount of sexual tension during this exchange is borderline comical, like why would they write them like this if the takeaway wasn't supposed to be "they're terminally wlw and down bad for each other" ??? In all seriousness, this scene was so emotionally charged and touching, and even if they weren't intended to be simping, it's nice to see something like this play out between two female characters, I feel like it's sadly rare.

4- The scene where she saves Din from the... thing... in the mines and we see her use the darksaber for the first time. She is so cool and badass with it, and she wields it flawlessly... it was meant to be hers 😩💖

5- Her fight with Axe when they meet back up on Plazir-15. On a surface level, because I love mando-on-mando sparring and we don't get to see enough of that in canon. On a deeper level, because I feel like this is the moment where we really see her let out all her rage and bottled up emotion that's been stewing beneath the surface of her depression era, which is so satisfying. I feel like we don't get enough angry Bo in live action, which like. some of that is that she's not the same person and has mellowed on the surface with age, but still, I miss her angy vibes, scrunkly mad faces, etc.

6- Honorable mention: the Ahsoka ass slap. God what a fucking introduction. Literally unforgettable. *chefs kiss*

Thank you again @kevystel @hotgirlvader !
