After proessing this episode and seeing people's reactions over these past few hours...

Am I the only one who actually feels hopeful after that finale?

Yes, of course Din letting Grogu go broke my heart into a million little pieces and of course I'd want them to stay together. But this was the ending most of us expected, even if we didn't want this to happen. Din's mission for this season was to reunite the child with its kind and that's exactly what he has done.

Luke showing up, as awesome as it was, threw me off guard mostly because I thought a character like Luke Skywalker is simply too huge to put in this show. Nearly untouchable at this point. The appearances of Ahsoka Tano and Boba Fett already felt like Din was being overshadowed, so I didn't think they would do this. Until the moment he revealed his face I thought it's gonna be Ezra, Cal Ketsis or some new character - a person who got Grogu out of the Temple when the Jedi Order fell and somehow survived all these years.

The reason I'm feeling hopeful is because I see some kind of a pattern in how the story goes, following a path of character development. Because as important as the plot is, this story doesn't feel plot-driven to me, it's character-driven.

Season 1 told the story of how father and son, two lonely souls, found each other and formed a bond.

Season 2 made them realize what they mean to each other and what are they willing to do for one another - Din breaking the Creed and revealing his face so he can save his son and Grogu deciding to leave with Luke and train, so he can make sure his growing but uncontrolled abilities mixed with his strong attachment to his father won't be the reason Din gets hurt. Remember what Ahsoka said? "Grogu will choose his own path." It didn't happen at that seeing stone. It happened in the finale. Grogu made his choice and Din let him.

And I believe season 3 will focus of their separate character growth, both of them coming to terms with their own identites. Grogu will learn the ways of the Jedi and how to master his power in the right way. Din, now being crowned the ruler of Mandalore despite not wanting it in the first place will have to come to terms with his identity as a Mandalorian, how he feels about it and about himself, how his upbringing as The Child of The Watch fits into all of this and maybe consider the posibility to live outside of it. Once they both deal with that, they will reunite - either on purpose or because the fate will bring them together again when they least expect it. Who knows? Maybe we'll even get a parallel to the pilot episode?

As for the behind-the-scenes stuff, I'm not worried either.

Boba Fett SPIN OFF (because this is a spin off guys, chill) was announced this way to avoid spoilers (although I admit the way it was done brought out a good amount of confusion in me). It is NOT season 3. It's its own thing.

Grogu is NOT OFF THE SHOW. You really think those greedy bastards at Disney will let go of the one thing that brings them the most money right now, not just from streaming views and ratings but from toys and merchandise, stuff they harvest the most money from? BABY YODA IS EVERYWHERE, EVEN IN THE COUNTRIES THAT DON'T HAVE DISNEY+ YET (*waves my hand from Poland where Disney+ is basically nothing but a myth but Baby Yoda plushies are at every fucking supermarket and they are expensive af*) You really think they are just gonna put a high-tech puppet worth MILLIONS of dollars into a box and stash it somewhere in a warehouse? NOPE.

I also don't think we're gonna see Luke around that much. Why? I think money, again. It looks like they used the same technology that brought us young Leia and Tarkin in Rogue One. The Mandalorian's budget is already huge, but I feel this is something they needed to put some extra money out for. And didn't Mark Hamill said after TRoS that he's basically done with Luke? So how did they got him here? Was he on set? Was it just a body double while Mark recorded his lines and they mixed it so he could sound younger? Or maybe they went through his works, took voice samples and put his lines together this way? Who knows. I hope they reveal it in the making-of special on 25th.

Plus, with all those new live action and animated series recently announced, Disney won't be pumping all its money into Mando.

Now it all depends on the writing. There are some things I would add or extend this season. It wasn't perfect but nothing ever is.

All we gotta do now is wait (and not waste our energy on overthinking)

Inquisitor meme 10-16!

I’ll dooo… Fenlath Lavellan (my “canon” inquisitor)

warrior, rogue, or mage?

Mage! He’s a Knight Enchanter with a wide range of single spells from other disciplines. (Ice spells and shapeshifting are his best after Knight-Enchanter)

how do they feel about the dalish?

His people, he loves and supports all of them.

how do they feel about the qun?

He’s so-so about the Qun. He’s not against it if it’s not against him.

how do they feel about the chantry?

He fucking hates it. Anyone with ties to the chantry, north or south, has to really work hard at gaining his trust/good opinion.

which demon is most frightening to them?

Desire demons or Pride demons, because he’s rather drowning in both. He’s not as ambitious as Era’falon (my warden) but he’s got his share of Chantry Sins.

did they choose the qun or the chargers in iron bull’s personal quest? why?

The Chargers, he believes in family, not societies.

when are they the happiest?

Oh man, probably when he’s with his brother and sister and Dorian. That would have been a first meeting to remember lol. The three of them are like phases of the moon, similar but distinct nonetheless. (Ash’adahl is his brother and Da’raka is his sister)

@ketsie did some awesome art of him for me!

Ketsie is Amazing!

Seriously! Just look at this gorgeous commission I just got from @ketsie of my main Lavellan, Isala! She captured her so incredibly and she was so fast and sweet! A wonderful experience that I HIGHLY recommend! I am so blown away right now! ^^

Also a quick thanks to @ellstersmash for recommending this wonderful human!

“I think there are probably a great many things you don’t know about me.” Isala stated. Her voice was teasing as she slid the hood back from her head revealing her pale, almost white hair. It was down and the bottom third touched her shoulders in soft, curling waves. She scarcely wore it down other than for washing it or sleeping. There was too great a chance of it being singed in a fight or of it obscuring her vision should the wind blow the wrong way.

Solas stared at her where she sat perched on the large bolder. He’d never seen her with her hair down. It looked almost stark against the deep, heavy blue of her cloak, but with the frame of snowfall around her, she had become something ethereal. Her ears peeked out like a secret from soft waves of the palest possible blond. Her vallaslin decorated her forehead like a ghostly circlet forever etched into her skin. He almost didn’t notice the symbols that touched her chin just below her bottom lip. The markings referred to Ghilan’nain, mother of the halla, but even as vallaslin went, they were faint.

She gave him a look that said she’d caught him staring but Solas recovered quickly. “So it would seem.”
