Imagine if Anakin was still the chosen one, but a Mandalorian, and schmi was too. He loses his mother but has the entirety of the Mandalorians to care for him still despite the fact he begins showing strength within the force which would lead him into troubling times, but nonetheless, Anakin getting the appropriate numbers of people to protect and stand with as a warrior would still show them he is always and would always be worthy of their love and comradery upon saving others despite him being shunned initially. Idk how this would go, but I’d absolutely adore a wholesome upbringing Anakin story where he isn’t a pawn in somebody’s plan and instead becomes a cornerstone of his society THAT ACKNOWLEDGES, LOVES, AND TRUSTS HIM INSTEAD OF TREATING HIM WRONG WHILE TEACHING HIM TO BECOME BETTER AND MAINTAIN HIS HONOR WHILE HAVING OTHERS PROTECT WHAT HE VALUES THE MOST DESPITE POTENTIAL GRAND LOSSES COMING FORTH ANYWAY. I want to start looking into these fanfics personally since I’m not the first to think of this concept of anakin being a Mandalorian and being adored and made stronger, but yeah guys lmk if you have suggestions of fan fics along this or ideas of how this sort of story would go because it makes me excited truly
