SWU Series
✨ Be-all and Endor - @djarins-cyare - Summary - Languishing in a dull and lonely existence on the forest moon of Endor after travelling there to help salvage Death Star wreckage, a nearly fatal encounter with a mysterious bounty hunter out in the forest heralds an opportunity to utilise long-forgotten skills and develop something more profound than you ever thought possible.
I loved it, it's so richly detailed, the research that was put into this story is phenomenal. And I loved reading the explanations not only for the plot, the characters psychology but also for the Star Wars universe. And the whole linguistic subplot ! Learning to speak Mando'a wasn't on my to-do list but here I am !
✨ Beskar Doll - @justagalwhowrites - Summary - "I said I’d get you there so I’m getting you there,” he growled. “I’m not letting some silly doll make me a liar.” He stalked off toward the fresher, but you followed. “Doll?” You demanded, raising your voice. “That’s what you think I am?” “Yes,” he said, turning back to face you, towels clenched in his fist. “A doll, some decorative, useless thing to sit there in pretty dresses and take up space. A doll.”
What a blast! I felt like a was reading a Star Wars story. Action packed, great story, great chemistry (enemies to lovers). It felt like a movie. The last few chapters were absolute perfection. It was such a joyful ride!
✨ Losing my Religion - @oonajaeadira - Summary - Set post season 2, a Mandalorian comes looking for you with an assignment from an old friend, sending you on a mission and a union that you both need. (Canon compliant through season 2, diverges from TBOBF and season 3).
I should have know after reading A Girl Walks Into a Bookshop that I would love every work by Adira and this Din series didn't disappoint. It was soft, it was tender, but the world building and the characters were so well written. I can rave about it for hours, I loved losing myself into that story.
✨ The World is light embodied - @davnittbraes - Summary - You have a good life. You move from planet to planet as you see fit, work wherever your skills come in handy, dodge your past whenever it threatens to haul you back and generally find contentment wherever you land.
This story is wonderful, detailed, with a lot character development from reader and also Din, and also action, and sweet menace that is Grogu. I really had a hard time letting them go. I feel like there is so much more to say, but just give a try.
✨Quarry - @ak-vintage - Summary - Din Djarin is on what he expects to be his last bounty hunt for Greef Karga. However, after capturing a wanted starship engineer who would rather go anywhere other than “home,” the Mandalorian is forced to reassess his priorities. Your taste of freedom had been brief but glorious. Now you are a prisoner of the most infamous bounty hunter in the Outer Rim – it’s only a matter of time before he turns you in. There isn’t much you would not do to keep from being sent home, but as you find yourself growing closer to your captor and his strange little companion, you start to wonder whether escape is really what you want.
I loved Din and this reader. I love the relationship they had together, how they navigated through their feelings. And Grogu, such a sweet boy and such a wonderful dynamic. Every aspect felt so in tune with the SW universe but also so uniquely itself.
✨ Of Beskar and Kyber - @penvisions - Summary - You’ve been on the run for as long as you can remember, from a lot of different people and a lot of different things. Everyone seems to see you as either a prize to show off or a captive to exploit. You had been successful in keeping a low profile and evading brief captures. That is until your mother contracted the Guild and the Mandalorian came to possess your tracking fob.
I read this one a long time ago, I remember loving every part, delighted to have so much of Din's insight, and the dynamic between he and reader is so wonderful.
✨Home is where you are - @saradika - Summary - When it appears the droid repair will take longer than expected, Din finds himself taking Karga up on his offer for the parcel of land. And when you go to give your new neighbor a warm welcome - you never imagine that it would be the very man you haven’t been to stop thinking about.
Absolutely loved this and these two. Very sweet and also very real.
✨ a_dope_dope on AO3 has 4 wonderful Din fics:
Their God Was War itself - Mando’s path to redemption is knocked off course by the unplanned rescue of woman—the lone survivor of a failed science mission—from the depths of Mandalore. Every part of his life has become a battleground and it’s only going to get more complicated with an unexpected traveling companion thrown into the mix. He really should just drop her off somewhere but she seems to know far more about his homeworld than she wants to admit... things that might help him wage his many wars.
Into Wild - The Living Waters of Mandalore, waiting dormant for a people who may never return, hadn’t shown him anything and had made him wet but nothing more. Mando was still lost.
Madlands - The search for his lost Tribe calls Mando to the far corner of the galaxy—an untameable sector known as the Madlands. Rife with syndicate factions and ever-shifting spatial anomalies, he needs a guide. The intelligence-trader he picks up comes with a set of secrets as perilous as the region itself.
Nevertheless - The child and his Jedi master are missing. Mando's search for them is going nowhere until he enlists the help of a woman who knows how to get people to give her what she wants. Their temporary alliance should work out well, as long as they both want the same things
My favorites are probably Into Wild and Nevertheless but I really love them all
SWU One shot
✨Regard your people as your beloved children - @vindictivegranny - Summary - After Cobb Vanth gets shot by a renegade during the spice war, Din Djarin deals with the guilt of not protecting the one man he'd trust with his son's life
This story is so beautiful and heartfelt. I don't really the words to express how much it moved me. There is a second part I haven't read yet but will soon dive into.
✨Locked out of heaven - @quinnnfabrgay - Summary - With Grogu leaving with the Jedi, and Din labeled as an apostate, he was convinced he'd be wandering the galaxy lost, devoid of purpose. That is until he met you. Tis was delicous, exquisite, beautiful! But you will have to wait for the link as kaitlin is changing her blog name and the links are not updated yet
✨Meet the teacher - @burntheedges - Summary - After your first few weeks as Nevarro's new schoolteacher, there was only one student's parent that you hadn't yet met. When you decided to send Grogu's dad a message, though, you never would have expected where it led.
Kate writes the best romances, I adored this story and I could have read 10k more words of it.
✨Chrysalis Heart - @kedsandtubesocks - Summary - As queen you can handle many things (like the assassination attempts threatening your life) but the alluring mandalorian hired to protect you might be your heart’s biggest threat.
Such a great story! Very visual, again it read like a Star Wars movie. I so want to be Queen of Naboo.
AU Series
✨ Pas de Deux - @burntheedges - Summary - When Din Djarin – principal dancer at Concordia Ballet Company and generational talent in the classical style – suddenly left CBC and joined the Nevarro Ballet Theater mid-season, it shocked the ballet world. You never would have guessed that he would change your life, too.
This ballet AU is such a great fic. The way the story manages to mix canon elements of the show in a modern setting, but also manages to make a story of it's own, with also so many details on ballet, it's mind blowing.
✨ Take me to church - @frannyzooey - Summary - Set in a brothel in the late 1800’s in the Wild West, you’ve only been working there for a month when Din Djarin shows up. A bounty hunter who makes stops into town between jobs, he is known at the inn for his generous appetite and demanding preferences. Asking for you one night, he is pleased to learn you are well suited for him: your sweet nature soothing to his gruff temperament and surprising him with your ability to handle his rougher tastes. Demanding that you be made available to him every time he is in town, neither one of you is ready for where this request leads.This one took me by surprise, because I'm not a big western girl, and at the time I read I wasn't a big AU fan. But boy did this one reconcile me with both!
✨ A galaxy far far away - @grogusmum - Summary - In an effort to keep Din’s son safe from Imps and bounty hunters, he sets a course to a far away galaxy. The Milky Way, to be exact. After almost landing on your house, you take them in and find family again.
Sweet and fun and so fluffy, I also would want Din to land near my house
I might be forgetting some, and for that I'm sorry, I didn't always keep a great track of what I read. But please, PLEASE, recommend you own, give love to all the writers out there.
I don't remember who is a Din lover and I might have forgotten some, so feel free to tag anyone who might want to join!
I actually really like this feature, especially with the recent update, and have been playing with how I’ve decorated each of the rooms to match the guys.
I thought I would share mine below, but feel free to share yours too! I’m really curious about how everyone decorated the little rooms they have for each of the guys now that they’ve expanded the With Him Decor and given us more to work with!

Zayne
Rafayel
Sylus
Caleb
Obviously Caleb’s is the most plain/barren for right now since I don’t have as much for him, but I really like how each room is looking so far, and I love updating it whenever I get new stuff to add. I’m looking forward to playing around with this feature more in the future!
