The ‘every bounty hunter ever knows each other’ thing is SO funny to me because it makes it actually possible that when Boba sees Din with the Darksaber he was just like. ‘Didn’t the Wren kid have that???’

Until your song is written.
I must shamelessly take this opportunity to thank you all. Yesterday I reached 100 followers and I can't believe that there are so many people who enjoy reading my stuff. I would like to take this opportunity to open my question and request box. Don't be shy to send me questions or ideas you want to discuss, whether it is Dinbo stuff or something about Mandalorian culture.
This is the way.
The scene starts with a completely shattered Bo-Katan. You can tell that she has to pull herself together not to burst into tears. Her confession about the night of a thousand tears and the memory of it seem to torment her. She hears Din approaching and tries to compose herself by briefly closing her eyes.
I think Din apologizing to Bo is one of the most beautiful things in this scene. He admits once again in this season that he was wrong. Din Djarin knows no false pride and has no problem admitting mistakes. And he admits what's been said about her being selfish and uncaring isn't true. It seems to have touched him that Bo-Katan gave up the darksaber for her people, gave up the claim to the regency.
Din steps up to her after she repeatedly blames herself for everything. He tries to build her up, not downplay what she did or what happened, just making sure that he wants to help her. He says: ''WE will rebuild it.'' A foreshadowing that you both should bring the future for Mandalore?
She doubts herself, still. She has made so many mistakes, mistakes that are unforgivable, that she cannot undo. How is she supposed to be the one to hold her people together in all the animosity?
Din repeatedly makes it clear that this weapon means nothing to him and his people. I think it's really ironic that so many have a problem with Din giving up the darksaber. He just doesn't care. It's just a story, a legend that doesn't matter until people believe it. And he also makes it clear what really matters to him, he basically tells us what it means to him to be a good Mandalorian.
When Din mentions the term honor, she seems to sigh slightly and raises her head. She's heard those words from him too many times. For a short break it seems that his words are bothering Bo-Katan. Honor... This is the way. It seems to be a constantly repeating mantra.
Din appreciates Bo-Katan's loyalty and character. These things that have been most important to him since we saw him first time in season 1. And Bo seems to appreciate his words as you can see a very faint smile on her lips. It's good to hear such words after years of being reminded of her failure by others.
That's why I serve you Lady Kryce. After this words I really think Din Djarin's love language is act's of service as he showed many times to different people who he cared for. He is not a man of many or fancy words, but of deeds. So what's a better way to show his affection than to offer his services to her. She doesn't have to go through this alone, he wants to stand by her side.
Bo-Katan turns her head to him after his words. It's obvious that she wanted to hide her feelings before and remained with her back to him. Now she shows him her face for the first time in this conversation. Din Djarin has managed to amaze her time and time again, and her expression softens because of his words to her.
Din gives her hope. Your story is not over yet. Her song is not yet written. The Mandalorian's main musical theme sounds in the backround. He begins to weave his fate irreversibly into hers.
I know some people have wrote, more or less jokingly, that this could be Din Djarins wedding vow. But it's not that exaggerated and ridiculous. We must not forget that the Mandalorians are based on a clan system of warriors. If Mandalorians are one thing, it's very pragmatic. Marriage is consummated between the two partners alone and in any place. Just before or after a fight, the couple doesn't even have to be in the same place. The marriage can even be consummated via voice or text messages. (if you are interested in this kind of topic, please tell me!!)
Honor and loyalty means everything to Din. He would not lightly pledge his life to someone. It means exactly what you suspected, he stands by her side until death.
Screenshots are mine. Gifs made by the wondeful @itberice. Please go and leave a follow and some love there!

The sequel.
See the original here.
Sidenote: This is not an invitation to diss on Satine or the New Mandalorians. Nor on the True Mandalorians, a.k.a. the Haat'ade, or the Children of the Watch. This especially is not an invitation to diss on the Jedi, either (because I see you motherfuckers in the tags/notes/reblogs) or Tarre Vizsla (and by extension, Paz Vizsla).
This is my personal "not actually all that serious" beef with Clan Vizsla and Death Watch as a whole.
The Mandalorians are a mess and I find them interesting/hilarious for that. Stop trying to turn my shitposts into imperialistic proganda. For fuck's sake.
#sw shitpost#star wars shitpost#the mandalorian shitpost#the mandalorian#mandalorian culture#mandalorians#clan vizsla#tarre vizsla#the darksaber#was gonna originally leave the sidenote#in the tags#but i don't want#to give people the option#of not seeing it#hate that i have to clarify all of that#but yeah

Bo: Time to get rid of him once and for all...
Immediately follows his baby to go rescue him
Starts bonding with the baby on the way and protects him
Uses the Darksaber to rescue Din, then has it and his other weapons laid out in a neat and orderly fashion for him when he wakes up
COOKS him a traditional Mandalorian dish
Offers to lead him to the mines herself
Dives (without hesitation) 300ft down to rescue him from a mythosaur when he proves he can't even take a bath without drama
Girl, if this is how you get rid of a guy once and for all, I'd love to see how to treat someone you care for

Do you remember when Din Djarin won the Darksaber in rightful combat and then lost it to a plot device
#the mandalorian#star wars#din djarin#the darksaber#make no mistake. that grievous thing was a plot device#they needed an explanation for bo katan to regain the darksaber#they took their chance for ‘wow cool creepy robot' and went with it#also the reverence with which din picked up that helmet was fucking devastating#lim posts#lim on the mandalorian#lim on Star Wars

We and the Mandalorians were wrong about the Darksaber.
The legends of this sword talk about how it's meant to unite all Mandalorians. For some, it's just a lightsaber, heirloom, fancy tool, or symbol of power. But in reality, it's something created with the use of the Force. Force is important here. If you watch Star Wars you know it exists no matter how much some characters will say they don't believe it is.
The Darksaber was never meant to be the symbol of power. It belonged to the first Mandalorian Jedi. Someone who unites two worlds that fought each other for centuries. It was the ancient Mandalorians who gave this saber a different meaning, but it was its creator and the Force that gave the Darksaber purpose.
All the bad/hating comments you can see about the Darksaber plot being useless, or wasted potential are blind to those facts. I will say it just in case, I'm not a fan of how the Darksaber ownership was carried, BUT I do see the bigger picture here.
Favroni didn't want the Darksaber to carry the brutal legacy of ruthless Mandalorians, they wanted to show the true purpose of the Darksaber, the peaceful, uniting one. And the truth is, if not for the Darksaber, all of season 3 wouldn't take place.
Let's say, Bo fights Gideon, and she gets the Darksaber. Din and her telling each other goodbye, he goes to Boba, etc, and wants to be redeemed. What now? Hypothetically:
He drowned in the Living Waters or died because of that Borg creature.
There was a war between Gideon and Bo's forces that weren't that successful because she herself never reached the full potential in that scenario.
Several members of the covert get eaten daily.
Nevarro is occupied by pirates.
Ang so on…
The Darksaber was in Din's hands for a reason, but it wasn't the reason to make him the next Mand'alor, because that is what was adopted over the years when Mandalorians tried to define their own rules of what it means to be a Mandalorian. Din got it for its real reason to unite himself and the others. To put him on a path with his fellow, lost Mandalorian Princess.
Bo and Din lived different lives. Yet, they both are Mandalorians. It is often mentioned how the two groups hate each other. We can even see the hostility on screen. There are constantly reminding us how Mandalore fell because of their own divisions. New Mandalorians, Death Watch, Maulorians, Resistance Warriors, Children of The Watch… Shattered like stars in the galaxy.
Bo-Katan was the first one to break the circle of the constant battle over the power of the Darksaber. We now know she didn't want to challenge Din Djarin for the saber, even if she knew at the stake was everything she worked for. Bo saw beyond the brutal nature of the Darksaber's legacy, beyond the tool that in its signature brought death and power. She saw a human behind it.
With that, the Darksaber lost value for her. She said herself, that she was not sure if that blade will be enough to unite them all. Bo lost all the glorification she had for that weapon. Back in season 2, she was confident that with the Darksaber she will restore Mandalore to its former glory, but now she knows the Darksaber is not special when it comes to power. Because it's people that matter.
Her refusal to take the blade, or challenge Din was a catalyst for restoring the actual way of Mandalorians. The way of unification. From now on, her and Din's life was bound by the Darksaber. Just like the first owner Tarre Vizsla was bound with Mandalorians and Jedi.
The Force will find its way, always. Even if they don't believe in it. But the blade itself rejected Din, on purpose. He never wanted it and it was not his destiny. However, because he got the blade, it triggered a chain of events that resulted in his and Bo's lives crossing together, this time for good.
At the point when it didn't matter to both Din and Bo, the Darksaber was nothing, yet it was everything. As time passed Din and Bo grew to know each other, respect, and understand. They, Mandalorians of two opposite ends, working together, spending time together, being a great team, being stronger together.
They both learn from each other what it truly means to be Mandalorian. And it's not bloody fights every night, it's not killing your own people over differences. It's the care for family, for their tradition, their legacy. It has always been the care about Mandalore and its people.
The blade united Bo and Din, which brings us to a bigger picture here.
The blade won't unite all Mandalorians. But it united Din and Bo, who now are examples for everyone else to see that despite their differences they can work together. It is the relationship that they both developed with each other that is an example for others. Their actions, and what they represent. Both of them see beyond the Darksaber, they see the value of the people behind them. They ditched the fighting nature the old way and restored the blade's true purpose, making Din and Bo the contrast of reason against years of wars that led them to this point.
TLDR; The Darksaber is now uniting Mandalorians not through power, but through real noble values that should be the core of the new age for the Mandalorians. Its (Darksaber's) conflict united two opposite souls that are now the fundament for the future of Mandalore. The weapon was never about power or death, and Bo and Din restored its former purpose even if they aren't aware of it.

All the problems in the Mandalorian could’ve been solved if Sabine had kept the Darksaber
#that girl could use it#Gideon shows up like surrender or we’ll bomb Mandalore and she’s just like ‘nah’ and whistles for Ezra and his Purgil#she’d wipe out all the imperials in the sector with homemade bombs 1000x more effective than the empire’s and paint gorgeous murals about it#could totally see her working with Luke and Ezra to build a the New Jedi Order on Mandalore#creating a culture of the most badass light side users in galactic history#man I love writing banger fanfic ideas in the tags and never using them#star wars#Mandalorians#sabine rebels#Sabine wren#Mand’alor Sabine wren#Mand’alor Sabine#the darksaber#darksaber#the Mandalorian

Tarre Vizsla, hanging out in the Darksaber break room, idk how haunted lightsabers work: Oh? Hmmm ....
Jaster Mereel, also chilling out in the Darksaber break room with a cup of shig and another holobook on Mandalorian history: What is it?
Tarre Vizsla: It seems that someone new has claimed ownership of my lightsaber.
Jaster Mereel, no longer interested: And? The Darksaber changes hands so often nowadays, I'm surprised you even commented on it-
Tarre Vizsla: No, you don't understand. This Mandalorian doesn't even know what the Darksaber is.
Jaster Mereel: ....
Tarre Vizsla: And now he's trying to give the Darksaber away to the other Kryze child.
Jaster Mereel: .... he's what?
Tarre Vizsla: Trying to give the Darksaber away. Strange. It seems he is also a child of the Watch.
Jaster Mereel: Death Watch?
Tarre Vizsla: Indeed.
Jaster Mereel: And he doesn't actually want the Darksaber?
Tarre Vizsla: He seems absolutely desperate to get rid of it.
Jaster Mereel: .....
Tarre Vizsla: .....
Tarre Vizsla: Wanna haunt him?
Jaster Mereel, putting his holobook down: *sighs* Alright, yeah, sure. Why kriffing not?
#star wars shitpost#tarre vizsla#jaster mereel#din djarin#the mandalorian#the darksaber#darksaber#look#i just want din to be haunted#by the manda'lors of past#i think it'd be HILARIOUS#just jaster and tarre#in the background#cheering on their loser mandalorian#cause he's somehow#the only mentally stable mandalorian#to wield the darksaber#since tarre himself
