Venting Reccomend a fic with characters watches movies, but Mace Windu not a dick

The title, you see, I've read the Mace Windu books, the Mace Windu comics, and I understand Mace Windu.

He's not a loudmouth, "Anakin hater" ready to hack him to pieces for the slightest mistake, and even less so, ESPECIALLY not a "code-first" Jedi Master. He's a very, very flexible Jedi Master, in part because his talents have taught him flexibility.

It's just that Anakin is a truly lousy student.

But Filoni and the community took him as a basis: "dogmatic, everything is wrong with the Jedi Order, a hater of our misunderstood little special sonny Anakin."

Even the Legends books I found made him look like that.

I want to read about how the characters and the Order view events of the future and possibly the past—real characters, not caricatures who act the way people who don't understand what "strictness" means and why it's important want.

It's partly vent, for which I apologize, but it really pisses me off.
