This Is The Way

Guys? We won! Rey kissed Kylo cause she was grateful (and that both are literally twins in the force. So they shared a similar connection like Luke and Leia) And Kylo died unredeemed and he was okay with that!

Never a romance between Kylo and Rey!

Why Vader’s Redemption Worked Where Kylo Ren’s Didn’t

In The Force Awakens, Kylo Ren was set up to be the new generation’s Darth Vader. This setup naturally lead to the assumption that Kylo would be redeemed in a similar way to his predecessor. But what the sequels fail to understand is that Vader’s redemption was inextricably tied to Luke’s development, and that’s why it worked.

The “I am your father” twist does two things for Luke’s character: it gives him a personal stake in redeeming Vader, and it directly ties him to a conflict he has to resolve (that being the darkness within him.) Of course Luke wants to redeem Vader—he’s his DAD. He feels a personal obligation to save a member of his family, especially since he never had a traditional family, and the one he did have was taken away from him. The twist also gives validity to the idea that Luke could be turned to the dark side. If it happened to his father, it could happen to him. But by bringing his father back to the light side, Luke is able to conquer the darkness within him and save a piece of his family, even if just for a moment. Vader’s redemption was not about Vader, it was about Luke. (It’s also worth mentioning that Vader doesn’t even get fully redeemed, he just makes one good decision that gives him the chance to die a better person.)

The sequels try to tie Rey and Kylo together through their Force bond, but that’s the only connection these two have. They’re not related by blood, they were never good friends, he’s never even been nice to her. He tortured her, tried to kill her, nearly killed her best friend, and killed her father figure. Why should she want to turn him? And even if he did give her a reason, what would she stand to gain from him? Does she need him to be a friend who’s Force-sensitive? Finn is right there. Does she need someone to teach her more about the Galaxy? Rose and Poe could tell her anything she wants to know and take her anywhere she wants to go. Does she need someone to believe in? She has the ENTIRE RESISTANCE.

Turning Vader was the solution to every problem Luke had by the end of the original trilogy. 

Turning Kylo is none of Rey’s damn business.
