Dark Rey footage from IX, vs concept art of Rey/Kylo in the mirror/cave scene from The Last Jedi. Aah.

Two halves of the same whole.

I feel like we should discuss Rey’s bandages in TROS.

*WARNING, this is me kinda overanalysing stuff and character*

So we know there’s a time-jump between TLJ and TROS, right? So Rey’s  wound should be healed by now and probably just left a scar.

So what’s up with the bandage? She doesn’t actually need it, so she must be wearing by choice. The same can be said for Skywalker’s lightsaber.

It’s put back together but also has that strap around it. And at the same time it looks as if it never broke in the first place. But why? Why does Rey try to hide those scars?

It’s almost as if they are a reminder of what happened between her and Ben and since she has to be at the top of her game she chose ignore those events. It’s as if she doesn’t want to remember she cares about him. It’s as if she doesn’t want to acknowledge their past. It’s as if... she took Kylo’s advice.

“Let the past die... kill it if you have to.”

Yeah I don’t think it’s coincedence that the scar that’s literally shaped like two hands reaching out for each other is the thing she doesn’t want to show. As a Jedi, she can’t let her emotions get the best of her. And according to Kylo, that’s the only way to become what she’s meant to be, which is a Jedi... right?

Well, no... Looking back on Rey’s character, it should’t be surprising at all if turns out to be a sith. Plenty of times she’s shown traits of the dark side. She’s really dependant and connected to her emotions, while she’s fighting she always showcases rage, and almost always kills , she went straight to the dark while she was training with Luke, and the dark side being an “easy and tempting” path (as Yoda says) is probably why she’s so “gifted” with the force. It all checks out (also the teaser shows Dark Rey but we still don’t know for sure what that was).

The thing is, Rey’s past is the one thing that has kept her from going dark. The only reason why she was nice and kind in Jakku is because she held on to her past, she held on to hope that her parents would be good, loving and kind enough to come back for her. Without that, she’s just a scavenger fighting for survival and her own personal gain. Without her connection to her past she’s... nothing... but not to the people who care about her. That is what keeps her from the dark. So if she takes Kylo’s advice, and gives up hope that Ben Solo will come back to her, that’s her turning point. But of course, she doesn’t know that, she’s just gonna do whatever it takes to save her friends because she’s desperate to do so. Kind of like a very powerful jedi turned sith lord we know of. hmmm... (reverse anidala anyone?)

So theory here; this is also Ben Solo’s turning point. When he sees that Rey letting the past die turned her into the worst version of herself, and she won’t “stand with him” even on the dark side, he’ll see that he was wrong... dead wrong... just so wrong lol

Not to throw shade or toot my own horn, but I find this much more interesting than Rey being revealed to be a clone, or Dark Rey being a vision. I’ll take a complex character arc over those two anyday. I’m not gonna assume I’m right tho, because that’s how every starwars fan ends up disappointed.

So anyway, thank you for coming to my TED Talk lol, and always remember that Rey is a precious cinammon roll that deserves attention and analysis

Well- WAS a precious cinammon roll

Star Wars IX The Rise of Skywalker “Fate” TV spot #2

[lilac-citywitch]

A few weeks after the battle of Exegol

“I can sense you, your presence. It’s like the air... it almost vibrates. It’s like you’re here.” - Rey says to Ben as his blue figure appears before her. Smiling, he raises a hand in the air and looks at her, waiting. Rey raises her own hand, approaching cautiously. Slowly, she reaches out for him, fingers meeting one at a time until their hands are completely intertwined. “It’s odd. It’s not the same. But for now, it’s enough.” - she says. “Tell me about your day.” - Ben says, as his thumb gently caresses the back of her hand. He just wants to listen to her voice. She could describe ship engine parts and he’d be interested. Rey can see the peace in his eyes. He could rest, he could go, his part here is done, yet he chooses to stay and listen to her, keep her company. He is there, and he is Ben. Not Kylo, not the Supreme Leader. Ben. Her Ben. The galaxy is a mess, the absence of a universal power has led to insecurity and conflict among planets. The remaining members of the resistance have many years of work ahead of them when it comes to restoring peace. Rey has many years of work ahead of her if she wants to keep the Jedi tradition alive. It’s reassuring, warm even, to know that she won’t be alone for a single moment in all those years to come. He will always be there, asking about her day.

SPOILERS FOR IX

—-

I don’t think Disney is to blame for what happened to the fucking tragic end of kylo, They are kid friendly and are all up for the prince and princess, happy endings shit. However, Lucasfilm and their Writers, directors. They litteraly ended kylo with the same fate as Darth Vader. They could have brought something new to the table but they pussied out because they were scared old fans would get mad kylo Ren gets away with killing Han.
