“Cal you’re cool. Don’t come to the Jedi Temple tomorrow.”

[strangemah]

Vader in Fallen Order was like :
"Well...since you're no longer a youngling, I'm not interested in killing you"

[chip-flip]

This makes the line "You would be wise to surrender" hurt a little more. JFO is relatively early in terms of Anakin being Vader, so maybe he recognized Cal and his legacy, and that line was Anakin talking like, "I know you, you survived the Purge. That takes some guts. Join me."

"Remember kid, if you're facing a Sith, never surrender. Even if you would be wise to do so."
"Yes, sir, Mr. Skywalker, sir!"

Star Wars: Brotherhood was absolutely phenomenal. Mike Chen absolutely nailed the tone of prequels. I think it's definitely a top 5 canon novel at this point.

This actually might explain a minor, yet bizarre, thing about Cal. His gloved hand. He has a glove on one hand, but his other is bare.
My theory about this is that maybe Cal is trying to remember Anakin, who was seen as the Hero Without Fear (ironic) during the Clone Wars. Cal wasn't at the Jedi Temple during Operation Nightfall, so he wouldn't have known Anakin had fallen to the dark side and had become Darth Vader. He would've thought he had died, betrayed by his own troops.
(Alright. Who's cutting the onions?)
Edit: okay. It could just be because he was in the Scrapper Guild. Still doesn't exactly explain why he has only one gloved hand, you'd think such a hazardous job would require heavy duty gloves on both hands. But what do I know?

Little did this kid know that 7 years later he would be running for his life from him.

[BenRigney]

I love Cal's character. He's such a great jedi character in Canon. He's second only to Kanan. Please keep Cal alive to the end of the GCW, Respawn. I want him to meet Luke

[JuanRodriguez-cevs]

Cal: You seem familiar.
Vader: You are confusing me for another person.
Cal: Are you sure we haven't met?
Vader: Nope never.... I get that a lot.

[KNGFWLV]

this makes their "duel" so much better
Anakin: dammit that red haired youngling got away
Vader: time to correct that mistake...

[bretr]

It could be that Anakin saw something in Cal and when he saw him again as an adult he recognized him and understood that Cal would be a good understudy or at the least a good inquisitor.

[wickdaline]

Maybe Anakin recognizes Cal somehow as Vader.

[roger]

Since Anakin met Cal's master, it would've been cool of we had some kind of banter between Zeb and Vader in Rebels, since both Cal's master and Zeb are apart of the Lasat species. I could see Vader maybe saying something like:
"I've met one of your kind before... and he died with the rest of those that resisted the Empire's rule."

Most especially since the Empire almost completely wiped out the Lasat species, it would be angering for Zeb I'm sure.

Anakin Skywalker was called to Coruscant to teach the youngsters flight lessons before going in battle

[jb]

Imagine if Cal was alive by the time the public was aware of Darth Vader's identity

[teabaganyone]

Cal was a pretty cute kid really looking forward to his next game

[michaelandreipalon]

So, guess they're now getting ready for Survivor, that's cool.

[VoidWuzHere]

“Hey, Anakin, I’m back and-HOLY-!”
“Uhhh…hey, Cal!”
“What happened here? What happened to my friends?”
“Ummm…they’re tired right now, yeah…very tired. They’re…um…sleeping…yeah.”
