Say what you will about the Jedi (and y’all have) but their hierarchical system doesn’t hinge on beating the shit out of the previous ruler thereby ensuring only the physically strong get to govern which is an abysmally moronic way of doing things
#this is why satine kryze was the first mandalorian with a fucking brain #she was the popular ruler! she ruled with the will of the people #hell so did pre #he didn’t duel her to the death. she refused to take his civil war bait #it’s maul who wins via duel who fucks mandalore over #even when bo gets the darksaber she is given it AFTER the other clans pledge their allegiance to her! #she has the darksaber BECAUSE she is the leader #she is not the leader because she HAS THE DARKSABER #that’s a critical fucking difference !#that is lost on the mando writers apparently! via @isaakandreyevs
Is this a crappy meme? Yes, but it’s true.
As requested by more people than I thought would answer to my post, some Obitine ✨ (@duchess-of-mandalore @mg024 @put-a-keep-are-you-foo-dell @rotschild ).
I should've really drawn more dirt and cuts all over them but I was not thinking clearly.
.
sometimes i think about how Dave Filoni not only apparently knows about the “Korkie Kryze is the Obitine kid” theory, but also brought it up to Story Group once in a meeting
And not just brought it up ... it’s pretty likely he’s the one the theory originates from.
After all, someone had to instruct the character designers to create a teenage boy with hair and eyes that look like that. Someone had to instruct the animators to make said teenage boy rub his chin when he’s deep in thought (thrice in one episode). Someone had to sign off on a script involving said teenage boy getting so excited to see a lightsaber and work with a Jedi.
That boy is a Kenobi. And Dave Filoni knows that all too well.
perhaps duchess Satine meets Count Dooku, and upon learning that Obi-Wan is being held captive is all like: D:
Oh man oh man, The Count vs. The Duchess, there would be SO MUCH HAUGHTINESS
(clearly they’re passing each other on some stairs here cause that’s the only explanation for the height difference wackiness aside from just me messing up, Christopher Lee is REALLY tall tho)
Okay, but consider: What if Satine already knew Obi-Wan was in Separatist custody? And went to whatever bullshit peace negotiations that Dooku was hosting (on Serenno or wherever) with the full intention of busting Obi-Wan out (possibly smuggling Anakin in as one of her guards or something).
Culminating in a Dramatic Rescue with Satine wearing stolen Nite Owl armor as a disguise:
Sure … and let’s look at what happened when Obi-Wan Kenobi was assigned to protect a prominent politician and planetary leader when he was Anakin’s age, shall we?
“Who’s the more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?“
(When Obi-Wan tried to discourage the Council from assigning Anakin to this mission, he was speaking from very personal experience)
