Yippie part 2 , also Nit's pauldron is 100% on the wrong side I'm so mad about it lol

Also also I'm still experimenting with digital art I'm more traditional and new(ish) to making digital art so this comic as a whole is really me just experimenting with what I want to do as an artist and my style.

So sorry if it ticks people off, or if you want to give me pointers that'll be swell :)

When life gives you lemons make lemonade. Not all the lemons make the lemonade to your liking so chuck the lemons that you don’t like

It ends up becoming ‘they’re such good friends!’ As Jason and Roy hold hands.

At this point Roy finds this totally hilarious and forbids Jason from saying anything. His family aren’t detectives so there’s no real pressure but the best detectives in the world can’t tell? Hilarious. Mind boggling. Rolling on the floor laughter.

They’ve joked about it enough that even Lian is sorta in on the joke. In the only way a child can grasp, her parents are married but no one else knows but they aren’t trying to hide it either. So Lian is all, okay cool.

Whenever Lian stays at her Grandpa’s (Oliver Queen) house, she fully blabs about how sweet Papa and JayJay are together and where their next fam vacation will be. But she never SAYS fam vacation, just trip.

She even stays with the Batfam for a week (bc hero stuff) and THEY STILL DIDNT KNOW. It’s all, JayJay bought me this and taught me to ride a bike or Papa and JayJay made this new meal and it was delicious! Alfred is face palming and anytime anyone asks why they just get the ‘I’m so disappointed in you you moron’ look.

At this point, Jason is convinced even if he told everyone, no one would believe him

Roy and Jason got married in Vegas. It was after a mission and they had just been laying around in their hotel room and kinda joking about being in Vegas and not doing anything, and how they had seen so many people on their honeymoon there, and then they joke about people getting married in Vegas and how even Jason, with his minimal existing paperwork, could do it, and Roy goes really quiet for a moment before he says "we should get married"

"what"

"This is one of the only places where you can easily get married without all the hassle and for it still to be legally binding. we should get married"

"Is this your way of proposing to me?"

"Maybe? Yes"

"....okay, sure, let's get married"

And so they do. The thing is, it's been years now, and they still haven't told anyone.

I love the fact that Jango's reasons are that he's already been Manda'alor at one point and is the best suited for it. Meanwhile Alpha 17: He's hot, tits, ass, thighs, fuck them kids, murder

I'm still voting 17 but i just find that funny

ROUND ONE: MATCH-UP EIGHT

Remember, this is NOT about who would win in a fight. This is about who makes the best leader for Mandalore as a whole.

Seeding

Propaganda below the cut! You can submit more on this post and I will reblog it back to here!

ALPHA-17

@ihuntmonsters: He’s uhhh super badass and sexy and kicks ass and is really awesome and I’m in love with him Perfect propaganda yes. He shall lead Mandalore

Anon: He's pretty good with training children! He is very good at inspiring loyalty! He is very willing to go after sith lords with just his teeth if he has to!

Anon: Vote for Alpha he’s got Cody’s thighs, Fox’s tits and Wolffe’s ass. He’s also a DILF, if you consider the shebse squad/command batch headcanons. And who wouldn’t want a Mand'alor like that?

Anon: Alpha-17 would be a great mandolorian leader I mean look at those Pecs! What else do u need in a leader?

Anon: HERES WHY ALPHA-17 FOR THE WIN: HE WILL ASSASSINATE ALL OF THE OTHER POLITICAL FIGURES WHICH MEANS DEAD SKEVY SHEEVY PALPATINE AND WHO DOESNT WANT THAT?

Anon: What a guy. I love him so much. He's such an asshole. Alpha-17 was part of the second test batch of clones of Jango Fett, one of a group of 100, and as such he was trained directly by Jango Fett in the art of war; these early batches who had more contact with their Mandalorian trainers are commonly considered to have a stronger claim to 'Mandalorian-ness' because of this exposure and learning experience than clones from the later, larger batches

Anon: Propaganda for Alpha 17: tall

Anon: Alpha-17 should rule Mandalore because a good king doesn’t want the power of the throne and he does not want that at all. also he’s the funniest choice. might have the skills to not get killed by maul

JANGO FETT

Anon: Jango became Mand'alor (according to Legends) at the tender age of 15 immediately after the death of his adopted father Jaster Mereel. While another of Mereel's men (Montross) made a grab for the position Jango brought up the betrayal Montross had done to Mereel causing the older man's death. The other Haat Mando'ade fell in behind Jango as he had become Jaster's Legacy. He led the Haat Mando'ade for 8 years and seemed prosperous. - And then Galidraan happened, between poisoned information and tensions being high between the Jedi and Mandalorians it only took a spark for it all to be blown to hell.

Anon: Jango was trained to be Jaster's successor to the title of Mand'alor from the time he was adopted at about 8 years of age, following the death of his blood family - when Jaster was killed, Jango was chosen by their people to step into the role despite being a young teenager at the time, suggesting that he was already known to be a good leader, and one who had earned their loyalty and trust over even Jaster's formerly-trusted second-in-command - while his time in the position was short, he did seem to command great loyalty and respect from his followers, although his focus seemed to have been more on their faction's mercenary work than on serving as a ruler or even cultural figurehead for the people of Mandalore at large - regardless, Tor Vizsla saw him as enough of a threat to his own claim to the throne to seek his swift removal from the political field - even after having disappeared from the field of politics for years following the incident at Galidraan, many Mandalorians still answered his call to come and serve as trainers for the GAR, suggesting that they took his claim seriously as well

Anon: Jango Fett, while a man of many mistakes, inherited the role of Mando'alor from Jaster and tried to do the same as he did: honour their past, move forward and provide for their people - He took care of Montross and tried his best to protect the people who followed him, to make sure they had a future and didn't fall apart and get scattered to the winds again.

@lightsaberwieldingdalek: I mean. Jango’s got the best brand recognition? Absolutely everyone for centuries with recognise the Jango Fett look, and that army that Jango was kinda sort of responsible for did conquer at least half the galaxy, just…. Not in the name of mandalore

Children of the Warch/Nite Owl Headcanons

Despite beliefs parents, spouses, and children are allowed to see your face

Medics, of course, are allowed. However, they don’t unless absolutely necessary and will prefer they just have lift the edge of their helmet

None of the Nite Owls really know this because, to the tribe, it’s not important or necessary to voice as it was their business

When babies are first taken in or borne, the parents are very secluded so they can spend as much time with their children out of armor (includes helmet as those taking care of the baby, found/birthed the baby and therefore adopt the baby), skin to skin

When it comes to babies, the adoption process is more so 'i found a baby and now i am their parent in every way' no real adoption like with the older kids since the babies won't remember

The adoption rites are still said, just much less fanfair than with the older kids

This is also true for any new foundlings that need the contact, true for all ages though not a requirement

For babies, this period lasts about 8 months, then when out either parent is with the child without chest armor which lasts until they’re about 16 months

When children come to the tribe, they have little with them so what they do have is kept safe and in tip top shape

When they first arrive, foundlings are given essentially a deep clean by those that found them (they usually become their parent)

This includes getting their clothes washed, washing their hair twice (sometimes three) times, skin is scrubbed, lotion, and clothed in spares, and finally put to bed

Sometimes the kids come with pets (though very rare) and those are given similar treatment depending on the species

All in all, the Watch has the three shriek hawks, two nexu, eight massiffs (coming from two adults so far), three strill, and four anooba

Ragnar came in with a baby strill named Lord (he tried to change the name but no dice)

Lord was bathed after Ragnar, then deflea’ed and dewormed by the medic

Lord has been adopted by all foundlings and has taken the role of Guard dog, including all the commands and mannerisms that come with (though a sucker for belly rubs)

Bathing is important for bonding as it establishes trust and safety for the child, showing that the parent will always love and protect their foundlings no matter what state (mental or physical) they are in

Ragnar is the oldest of the younger group and took on the leader role

There are older teens who’ve completed the verd’goten and are considered adults but mostly teach youngers' kids

The teenagers oppose the Nite Owls the most and, while the most inexperienced of the adults, enjoy causing the most trouble with their youngest

The Nite Owls don’t have nearly as many young foundlings, their youngest is 15. The Children of the Watch youngest of the adults was 14, their actual youngest is 10 months old.

Younger groups age is from 0-13, then 14-20

The youngest enjoyed the new addition to their older siblings they could annoy; especially since the new teens had no idea what to do with them

Many times the kids will be all over the them. The moment they sit down, they have two children climbing on them (hanging over their legs, grabbing their head or arms, laying over their back, on their feet) but otherwise totally ignoring them unless addressed

The Nite Owls either have no idea what to do or don’t care enough about the tribe to care. The adults of the Tribe think it’s hilarious and that it builds character

They’re reasoning is that ‘if you don’t have the spine to tell them to get off of you, you don’t have a spine at all’

Eventually a nineteen year old takes a kid climbing over his face and throws him to the floor, and yells ‘get the hell off me you leeches!’

The child laughs, yanks his leg out from under him, climbs over to their face, slaps their cheek mockingly and says ‘bout time you grew a spine, grew a set of balls too! Congrats! You're no longer a spineless worm!'

The nineteen year old is then quasi adopted by this weird child and secretly enjoys it

A surprising amount of young Watch children quasi adopt the older kids from the Nite Owls, the Owls are confused and don’t really know how to stop it and those who have tried are told to stop by their teens

The peace between the two groups is actually pretty stable in day to day life

Though, some Owls still take issue with the Watch and avoid them, that number is few

After Paz and Axe become riduur, there is even less tolerance by either group for those people so many keep their negative opinions to themselves

Another factor is their pets

Obvi, the Tribe has so many pets and animals that are very well taken care of. Surprisingly, the Owls also have a few pets (but again not as much as the tribe)

The animals each have their roles and enjoy getting pets from literally anyone. Though, most will only respond to attack/work commands coming from a certain few people

Many of the massiffs will lay around and cuddle with the youngest of the children, though a majority only listen to the Beastmaster and her two apprentices

However, with each new litter, half of the pups are given to those couples with the youngest or most vulnerable children

All of the animals are incredibly well trained and well behaved, with even the biggest and most dangerous Anooba still fully trusted around babies (the only outlier being the bird things)

Many of the animals are purchased/found as babies since they respond the best to training

When the Nite Owls animals meet the Tribe's animals, it goes well

Though the Owl's are a little older and calmer, generally receptive to children and people playing with them but prefer to lay around and sun bathe

The Nite Owls' have one strill, three akk dogs, one massiff, and two anooba.

The pets are loved by all the young children and spend a lot of time around the younger kids, due to instincts or the fact the kids come to them

the Owls don't have a Beastmaster like the Tribe and so their animals are used to being more separate and with their owner than hanging around so many different people and animals

they also aren't used to working in a herd but many choose to just keep their animals with them rather than the group

Though, the owner of the massiff (who is about 22 year old female) does keep it with the other massiff and gives open permission to use it to help with breeding new puppies when the time comes

All the aminals in both groups only know Mando'a commands, though they know 'good *insert pet name/gender*' and stuff like that

(whether they know that or they just go wild for the pets, no one will ever know)

I. Love. This.

Remember that time in the Star Wars newspaper comic when Boba Fett was defeated by a big magnet?

Not one of his proudest moments.
