AU- morderno (inspired by a scene from Despicable Me 2)
Din organized the birthday party Grogu and there is Omera with her daughter Winta. She is a friend of Din childhoodand and she always tries to trap Din with all manner of appointment combined with all kinds of men or woman.
During the party something is on fire and the sheriff in the town passes at that moment helping.
Having escaped danger Din and Grogu remain impressed and amazed by the Marshal for the matter of his for the kindness and understanding.
"Din Djarin" looks clumsy Din.
The Marshall shakes his hand, "Cobb Vanth".
"This is my son," she said the brown-eyed man placing his hands on the shoulders of his son.
Grogu looks Cobb with puppy eyes and would see him as a hero, "Are you single?".
Din turns red upon hearing his son's words and would like to hide from Cobb's beautiful eyes, while Omera is already planning a diabolical plan to bring together those two.
still crying over how gently and politely din held her wrists (I am touch starved)
Din: heâs just a bounty idc I need money
Din, 2 days later: what did you just say about my son?
The last thing Boba expected, was to meet an utterly adorable child on the flight home, and then get mistaken for the child's buir and the riduur of the child's actual buir.
Rating: G
Pairings: Boba Fett & Grogu; Din Djarin/Boba Fett; brief Jango Fett/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Warnings: reference to past near-fatal jellyfish stings
Prompts: @bobadinweek 2021 day 4 | family & this
âGive us a call when you land, ok?â
Boba rolled his eyes exasperatedly at the third reminder. âYes, Oâbuir.â
Obi-Wan smiled fondly at his childâs antics through the screen. âSure you donât want us to pick you up?â
âYes, Oâbuir,â Boba sighed theatrically. âIâm 25. I can make my way home from the airport.â
But he couldnât help the instinctive face he made when Jango appeared in the frame only to drape his arms around Obi-Wanâs waist and hook his chin over the otherâs shoulder to kiss his cheek.
âBuir!â he said exasperatedly. âStop doing that every time I call home, for Forceâs sake. You can be sappy when Iâm not there!â
Jango merely smirked at him while Obi-Wan hid a laugh behind his palm.
Oh Boba just knew his buir was doing it on purpose to get a rise outta him! He scowled at the pair, not that it did anything to stop them. No, they had been that way for 15 standard years already, and would be that way till they joined the kaâra.
(And he wouldnât have them any other way. He only hoped that he would one day find a riduur who would look at him the way his buire looked at each other.)
The hall speaker came alive with a chime, interrupting any further conversation.
âThat must be your boarding call,â commented Obi-Wan. âHave a safe flight, dear. Love you.â
âSafe flight, Bobâika. Weâll see you when you get home,â added Jango.
âMm, yeah. Love you, buire.â Boba waved back at them before ending the call.
Sighing, he slid the datapad into his jacket and shouldered his carry-on before pulling on his buyâce again. At the boarding announcement of the rows including his, he joined the others making their way onto the aircraft.
âWelcome aboard, sir,â greeted the Togrutan flight attendant, glancing over Bobaâs documents. âWe wish you a pleasant flight.â
Boba tipped his head briefly in acknowledgement. Ahead of him, the mass of people slowly inched their way to their seats. Lowering the audio input of his buyâce to reduce the audible hum of the craft, he joined them, squeezing his way past people until he arrived at his row.
More preoccupied with getting his carry-on into the overhead cabin space, he did not fully register the presence of his row-mates until a cheerful chirp caught his attention.
âOh,â he breathed out, sliding into his seat which was thankfully an aisle one. âAnd who might you be, adâika?â
Big brown eyes stared back at him curiously from an impossibly tiny body, floppy green ears twitching ever so slightly. The kid was swaddled in thick robe-like clothing and had a childâs seat belt fastened neatly over its body where it sat in the center seat. Tipping its head, the child cooed at Boba.
âHis name is Grogu.â
Boba looked up at the person sitting by the window and his breath caught at the sight of the unpainted pure beskar buyâce.
The mando was clad in an unassuming, loose-fitting outfit of a shirt, jacket and jeans. But Boba had grown up around ori'ramikade, his buir being one himself, and had seen them in all sorts of attire.
He knew an experienced combatant when he saw one.
(Not to mention beskar was still incredibly rare. Not even the ramikade owned pure pieces of beskarâgam. So for the mando to be wearing the pure unpainted metal and as their buyâce no less, they had to be talented enough to still keep it even with all the aruetiise who would gladly slaughter them for it.)
âI see,â he murmured. Straightening up slightly, he offered his forearm. âBoba Fett. Clan Fett, House Mereel. He/him.â
The mando clasped Bobaâs arm, a silent strength in their grip. âMando. He/him,â he replied, offering no more information.
Boba merely nodded as they let go. It wasnât the first time heâd met a traditionalist.
(And it elevated his opinion of the manâs skill even higher. Though it did also raise the question of why he had given out his adâs name. Perhaps the child was not used to being addressed otherwise.)
âWell met, Mando.â
The child squeaked, waving his clawed hands at Boba. He laughed softly at the adorable cry for attention.
âWell met, Grogu,â he said seriously, gently grasping one tiny hand.
As the pre-flight announcements began, the mando distracted the child with a shiny silver ball. The kid was happy enough to play with the item, rolling it back and forth between his hands.
Meanwhile Boba pulled out his own datapad and busied himself with a few interesting research papers heâd not had time to read while juggling his semesterâs course load. The 9-hour flight would give him more than enough time to make a sizable dent in his reading list.
He connected his buyâce to the in-flight entertainment system easily enough, and was soon absorbed in his reading, strains of warbat trance playing over his internal comms.
Engrossed as he was, he barely registered the passing of time until a soft insistent patting of his thigh caught his attention. He looked down from his datapad to find the kid tapping the outside of his leg, wide eyes fixed on his buyâce.
âWhat is it, adâika?â he asked quietly, switching off his music.
Grogu cooed at him and raised his arms up. Boba glanced over at the mando, but the man seemed unaware of his adâs antics. The silver buyâce gave no hint of what could be happening beneath, though Boba figured there was a good chance the man was fast asleep.
Truthfully it was highly unlikely that the mando would be willing to let his guard down enough to fall asleep on public transport, especially around so many strangers and with an ad to protect. But it was even more unlikely that he would let his ad interact so unreservedly with an unknown, even a fellow mandoâad, if he was aware of such interaction taking place.
At Bobaâs prolonged inaction, the child grew more and more fussy, his whines getting louder as he smacked his hand forcefully against Bobaâs leg.
Making his choice, Boba stowed away his datapad and unbuckled the kidâs seat belt, carefully lifting the child and settling him on his lap.
âShhh, adâika,â he whispered, gently stroking one ear. âYour buir is sleeping.â
Grogu easily settled down, having gotten what he wanted. Boba wrapped a protective arm around the tiny body, cradling the kid close as he had his fill exploring Bobaâs clothing, fiddling with the many zippers, pockets and buttons.
Perhaps it was the âbuir instinctâ that was often joked about by the mandoâade, but Boba found himself unconsciously smiling as Grogu played with the folds of his clothes, unbothered by the number of times he had to carefully disentangle the kidâs claws when they caught on the fabric.
âPatoo!â Grogu exclaimed softly. He lifted his hands up, straining towards Bobaâs face.
Boba bent forward to let Grogu skitter his hands over the buyâceâs cool surface, heedless of the strain in his neck at the awkward position. After a few gentle pats Grogu frowned, ears dipping down, then tapped the side of the buyâce insistently.
âDo you want it off?â Boba asked curiously.
Groguâs ears perked up. âPatoo!â
He tapped the buyâce once more.
Sneaking a look over at the mando to make sure he hadnât woken, Boba lowered the tray-table and helped Grogu onto it, making sure he supported the table with his legs. The child was incredibly light, but heâd rather not risk breaking the tray and/or endangering the kid either way.
Grogu watched him eagerly from his perch, and Boba huffed a laugh before pulling off his buyâce and placing it on the kidâs empty seat.
âPatoo?â the kid whined, ears drooping as he reached for Boba.
âItâs ok, adâika,â Boba murmured, bending slightly to let Grogu run his hands over the scars on his face. âItâs ok, it doesnât hurt anymore.â
The child looked at him sadly, tipping his head in silent question.
âIt was an accident,â Boba replied, running a finger across the kidâs ear. âMy buire and I were freediving in the ocean near our house one evening a year ago. We didnât see them, but I ended up swimming into a couple of jellyfish.â
âMy buire were terrified,â he added quietly. âI nearly died that day.â
Grogu shuffled closer to hug Boba. Running his hand down the kidâs back, for a brief moment, Boba couldâve sworn he felt an almost familiar surge of warmth engulf him.
âHello sir, is there any food or drink option you would like to have?â
Tensing, Boba pulled away and turned to the flight attendant, an arm wrapped protectively around Grogu. He relaxed slightly when the Twiâlek female smiled down at the child and greeted him softly.
âDo you have any broth for the kid?â he asked when Grogu turned pleading eyes on him.
The attendant briefly consulted her datapad. âYes, we do have bone broth suitable for your child. Would you like it in a toddler-friendly cup?â
âYes. Thank you.â
The attendant handed over the cup. âAnything for you or your partner, sir?â
Boba choked, quickly disguising it with a cough as the Twiâlek looked at him in concern. âAh, no. Weâre good, thank you.â
As the attendant moved away, Boba could still feel the heat that had rushed to his ears and the back of his neck at the mistaken assumption. Grogu squeaked at him, patting at his chest.
âShe thinks your buir is my riduur and youâre my ad,â he told the kid incredulously.
Grogu simply tipped his head and cooed.
âOk, fair enough, I can see why she might think youâre my ad. But your buir's riduur? I could be a vod.â
The kid merely squirmed forward, attention fixed on the cup Boba held rather than what he was saying. Sighing, Boba helped the child off the tray-table and onto his thighs before handing the cup over. Grogu chirped happily and snuggled into Bobaâs stomach, clutching his prize triumphantly.
Boba watched him absently, mind drifting back to the attendantâs words.
Heâd never thought about having an ad of his own before, not seriously at least. But as Grogu sipped at the broth, perfectly content to sit on a strangerâs lap, he could slowly paint a picture of a future for himself - one with a tiny green child and an intriguing man with a pure beskar buyâce.
He shook his head to get rid of the fanciful idea. âDiâkut,â he cursed under his breath. âI really need to get out more.â
A thump of the cup against his chest had him firmly back in reality.
He took the offending item. âDone, Groâika?â
Grogu nodded seriously at him. Then to his amusement, a large yawn escaped the tiny body, almost causing the kid to topple over if not for Boba.
âLooks like itâs nap time for someone.â
Grogu yawned once more in agreement. Burrowing himself back in Bobaâs arms, he blinked tiredly a few times, and was soon out like a light. Boba tucked the folds of his jacket around the kid and leaned back against the headrest.
It really wasnât so bad - taking care of an adiik.
The dim light and low drone of the aircraft quickly had Boba feeling the exhaustion of the day. And within minutes, he too unintentionally slipped into sleep.
âHey,â a low voice called as someone shook his arm. âWeâre landing soon.â
Bobaâs eyes snapped open, body tense, only to meet the dark T-visor of the mando. A surge of discomfort coursed through him as his bare face was reflected back at him.
Then he remembered the child.
âI-â he spluttered, looking down at the kid who was still fast asleep in his arms. âI didnât mean to-â
âItâs fine,â the mando cut him off, the smooth metal of his buyâce giving no hint of true emotion. âLet him sleep. Heâs had trouble doing so the last few days.â
Boba couldnât help the flush that crept up his neck. Here he was bare-faced (the ugly scars criss-crossing his visage exposed) and cuddling a traditionalistâs child without their express permission, and somehow he was still alive and unharmed.
It was a kriffing miracle. His buir wouldâve killed others for less.
Really, the only saving grace of the situation was that his aliit was not there to make fun of his massive misstep, for which he sent a quick thanks to the kaâra.
Then he hastily grabbed his buyâce off the seat between them and shoved it on. And just in time too, because the flight attendants were making their landing rounds.
âGood morning sirs,â greeted the same flight attendant from before. âCould you please have your child seated with their seatbelt fastened? We will be landing soon.â
Bobaâs face was on fire under his buyâce. He was already in deep enough osik with the mando, and now the attendantâs misunderstanding was putting him in an even worse spot!
He opened his mouth to hastily correct the attendant when the mando spoke.
âWe understand. Thank you.â
Bobaâs jaw dropped. As the attendant went down the other rows, he numbly placed Grogu back in his seat and watched as the mando carefully fastened his kidâs seat belt.
Mando was definitely one of the strangest traditionalists heâd ever met.
âSorry,â he finally spoke. âAbout the attendant, she-â
âI know. I was awake,â replied Mando. âSince Grogu started trying to get your attention.â
âOh he was no trou- Wait. You were awake the whole time?â
Mando huffed a laugh, a warm sound that not even the vocoder could completely disguise.
âHeâs fond of you. Itâs⊠unusual,â the mando said slowly. âHe generally doesnât like others very much.â
âI see,â Boba replied faintly.
They remained in silence as the aircraft landed and everyone around them began to disembark. Boba stood as the mando unbuckled his and Groguâs seat belts.
âDo you have a carry-on?â he asked, pulling out his own bag to sling over his shoulder.
âElek,â said the mando. âSame compartment.â
Boba nodded and pulled out the only other bag as Mando picked up his child. When the other reached out to take the bag, Boba shook his head. âItâs fine, I can take it.â
âYou have an ad,â he added when it seemed like the mando would argue.
That seemed enough to convince the mando, and the two began the long process of going through customs and collecting their luggage.
By the time they finally exited the arrival hall, Grogu was wide-awake and happily cooing at all the new sights and sounds, eagerly pointing things out to both the mando and Boba. They came to a halt right outside the taxi stand.
The mando handed the silver ball to Grogu, and the child quietened, content to play with the item.
âVor entye, Boba Fett,â he finally said.
Boba immediately shook his head. âThere is no debt between us. Children are the future.â
âThis is the Way,â replied the mando quietly.
They stood in silence for a moment longer.
âDo you have a place to go?â Boba asked. âBecause, you could come over for a while if you want. My buire love kids, and-â
Grogu startled as a taxi sped by, dropping the metal ball with an upset squeak, which then bounced onto the road.
âGrogu,â the mando began, when the child lifted his tiny hand and the ball zipped back into it.
Boba inhaled sharply. âA Force-user.â
Beside him, the mando went still, a predatorial calm that sent klaxon sirens ringing through Bobaâs head.
âUdseii, Mando,â he said evenly, making sure to keep his posture calm and unthreatening. âI will not harm you or your ad.â
At his side, the edge of a blade threatened to slice into him. âYouâre not the first nor the last to say that.â
âHaat, ijaa, haa'it!â Boba swore readily. âMy buir and some of my vod are jetiise, Mando. I promise you, neither my aliit nor I will harm you or your ad.â
At that, the mando finally relaxed. For the first time, Boba could see the exhaustion that threatened to swallow the other whole, and he found himself instinctively reaching forward to steady the man.
âYour buir, could you- could you take me to them?â the mando asked. âI was told to find a Jedi. I- I canât- The child, heâs not safe. There are people hunting him.â
Grogu whined, sensing his buirâs distress. Bobaâs heart, already firmly in the kidâs grasp, ached as the mando tried to sooth the child.
âYes,â he answered. âYes, I can take you to him. You both will be safe with us.â
I love to draw bc I can do this and it will be okay
âThen I will adopt him as my own!â
Serious question to Star Wars and Mandalorian Fans:
Since Luke is going to take Grogu in as his Padawan, does that mean Kylo Ren is also going to kill him later on?
Please tell me no, because the thought alone makes me sad...
Has this been asked before?

Just a reminder to everyone out there that claiming Mando's name is Djarin Din is very Euro-centric and until Dave and John confirm what is and is not a surname for our favorite Himbo Dad, it's extremely unfair to say what is and is not canon regarding his name when it's colonizing a space that's meant to be safe for everyone. If you WANT to call him by either or and that's your headcanon, that's fine, but I'm getting real tired of seeing fellow non-white/Euro based friends getting shut down for sticking with Din and inviting immature fans into their safe spaces to peacefully educate them. Ya'll, do better.
A part the âwhat he wouldâve wantedâ wip Iâm working on rn because this chapter is taking a while and I need to feed the wolves. See if you can guess whatâs going on!
He didnât know what he was expecting, couldnât understand how he hoped for the same mechanic that had helped his buir all that while ago. What, that after all this time sheâd not only still be here, but would also be in the hanger his teacher had chosen at random?
Please. He remembered how the other Younglings would hate it if a story melded perfectly for the characterâs usage. âHe has stupid plot armour!â theyâd cry out. âIt makes no sense!â
Fool him twice for thinking he had plot armour.
I just thought it was funny :)
Well hey guess what?
After a lot of struggling and more than one occasion where I went âHey can I just rewrite this whole chapter?â I finally managed to get another one up for ya!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/28909794/chapters/72110688
âwhat he wouldâve wanted,â is back!! Have fun :)
Yep, âwhat he wouldâve wantedâ has been updated and more pain has been whipped out on a silver platter. Plot happens in this chapter. Feelings happen in this chapter.Â
Lots of things happen in this chapter.

oh my god OP
OP
You canât just give me this opportunity and expect me to let it beÂ
oh my god
mind if I switch it up slightly? yeah? okay great anyway-
Thereâs a man that stands in the alleyway.
He stands with his blaster out. His grip is relaxed - experienced. His shoulders are tense and his stance ready - also experienced.Â
Grogu, hidden in an alcove of the wall and staring down, shouldâve expected this. This man wore Mandalorian armour. Whether or not he earned it or stole it, he would need the skills to even get a hand on the beskar.
(Other Mandalorians might not have the skill to get the Beskar)
And certainly not so much of it. The armour is silver and unpainted. Grogu has half a mind to try and shoot him in the leg guards just to see if those were beskar too.
But heâs not a fool. Mostly.
Grogu wears beskar too. He has had it reforged to fit him; the armour of his late father. He wears it with pride and guards it with ferocity, like how his father had done before him, and how every Mandalorian has done, had done, and will do.
He walks the way of Mandalore. Not many do.
Groguâs job is to make sure this man does.
He whistles a long, low tune.
The man jolts subtly - surprised. He whistles back.
Grogu finds a tug of a smile on his face. It would be good to have another addition to the covert, to the people. Mandalorians were strong alone, but they were stronger together.
His helmet whirrs softly. A signal that itâs efforts of connecting to the manâs helmet were successful. Good; Grogu needs the privacy of the comm channel for this next bit.
âSu cuyâgar (Hello; Youâre still alive),â Grogu says into the link. He snorts, amused as the man jolts again. âRelax, Iâm just in your helmet.â
The man does not relax, but Grogu didnât expect him too. The phrase âIâm in your helmet,â is not meant to be calming.
âI didnât...know there were other Mandalorians here,â the man replies.
Grogu frowns. His voice. His voice is familiar - it tugs at him, it hurts. Grogu blinks slowly; now taking in that armour slowly. With every second that passes, Grogu finds it harder to breathe.
His gaze finally falls onto the manâs pauldron, and his signet.
âYouâre not from here...â he breathes.
The man tenses further. âNo...I just landed on this planet-â
âYouâre not from here,â Grogu interrupts him, drawling his voice out. His mind is whirling. He chances a glance into the Force and is nearly knocked over by the sheer intensity of wrong.
The man is not from here - and more importantly, heâs not supposed to be here.
âTake off your helmet.â
The words are out of his mouth before Grogu even registers he opened it. He winced in the dark shadows of the alcove. If he said it to any other Mandalorian, he wouldâve gotten a blaster shot right in the beskar and wouldâve deserved it.
Understandably, the man tenses. His grip on his blaster tightens. Grogu remembers the skill the man has-
Grogu remembers.
Grogu remembers this man.
The man with the mudhorn signet.
Grogu steps out of the alcove. The man instantly shifts his Visor to stare at him - and Grogu can see him physically recoil in shock.
Wordless and swift - then Grogu stands on the floor of the alleyway. The man is taller than him (everyone is taller than him) but Groguâs own Visor meets the manâs unflinchingly.
Thatâs a lie. Grogu is shaking. His breaths sound too loud and instinct calls for him to calm down.
The man is silent as he stares down at him. Grogu can see his blaster shake.
Grogu expels a sharp breath of air. He reaches up to his own head and takes off his helmet in one clean swoop.
His ears twitch - uneasy and unused to being out in the open like this after so long. His being screams at him to put it back on, but he grips the side of his helmet and forces it to be quiet.
The man. The man doesnât speak. Grogu doesnât even know if he breathes.
â...Grogu?â
Groguâs helmet falls from his hands as Buir (father) takes off his own.
âBuir-â
Groguâs father - Din Djarin - a man who died when he was a child, rushes forward to catch his son as Grogu falls to his knees.
Din: Who are you and where did you get that pendant?
Grogu(Teen): *takes his hood down* My name is Grogu and I am from the future.
Time travel AU
oh my god
mandalorian grogu would be the best fucking Beroya ever.Â
âwhy do you say so?â
because
heâs already a hunter
oh my god imagine everyone looking at this. this small ass being and going âyouâre the bounty hunter? really? iâm spending my money on you?â and then Grogu just comes back with the bounty in record time because heâs already just naturally a hunter. have you seen this mfâs ears? theyâre so big wtf you think his prey can escape him?? no?? he can hear your heart beating and you better believe heâs coming after your crusty ass-
losing my mind at how Mandalorian Grogu would be the shortest Mandalorian ever
like full grown Yoda was like what, barely waist high? Youâre just chilling in the cantina when you hear a blaster click behind you, and you hear a monotone âI can bring you in warm, or I can bring you in cold,â and you turn around just to see this small ass mf holding you at gun point
