If Rey is in love with Finn…why tf is she weeping and crying over Ben in the throne room.
BECAUSE SHE JUST WATCHED KYLO REN ALLOW THE FIRST ORDER TO BLOW UP RESISTANCE SHIPS. Finn might be dead! And Kylo Ren is clearly NOT going to become Ben Solo just because Snoke is gone, because he’s the one choosing to let the FO continue its action AND telling her to let her friends – including/especially Finn – die! She’s literally not crying over “Ben,” she’s crying over the fact that she only went to Kylo because she thought he would help her save Finn and the rest of the Resistance, and she’s just found out that Kylo manipulated and lied to her about his motivations. He was never going to let the Resistance live. He never wanted to help her. And he was never under Snke’s control. She’s crying because Luke was right, and she feels like a fool who’s just let her friends – including/especially Finn – down. And it might kill them.
Because she was raised by sand and now she’s on an uninhabited island with a grouch, while being systematically gaslit by a genocidal warlord who knows her deepest fears and insecurities because he mind-raped her?
If she found her soulmate…why didn’t she just go to Finn, and if Finn was meant to be Force sensitive why didn’t they just have a force bond since obviously they were meant to be the romantic couple!
Because her mission was literally to go find Luke, get trained in the Force, and bring Luke back to the Resistance, to help save Finn by having a trained Force-user on their side. Did you miss the part where her motiation the whole time she was mailing herself to the First Order was ”protect Finn and get back to him”? Like how she told Chewie to give Finn her last thoiughts and words if she died before seeing him again?
And, for what it’s worth, not that it seems to matter to your perspective, but… there are no romantic pairings in the current Star Wars canon who are Force-bonded. The people with Force bonds in canon are either siblings, parent and child, two enemies matched by power on the Light and power on the Dark, or Master and Padawan.
Either Rey is Kylo’s long-lost baby sister, which makes sense; Rey is the Light apotheosis who will vanquish his Dark nadir, which makes fucking sense; or their “Force bond” was faked by Snoke, like Snoke fucking said it was.
But no matter what the case, they’ve NEVER been a sign of a romantic attachment in actual SW canon. Han and Leia? No Force bond, even though Leia is the granddaughter of the Force itself. Anakin and Padme? No Force bond, even though Anakin is Space Jesus. Kanan and Hera? Nope.
Why does she feel relief when she see Ben and wonder if she can touch his hair his face and his hands?
…She doesn’t? First she tries to shoot him, then she scowls and says she doesn’t have time for him, then she’s in the most depressive state of her life which was partially orchestrated by him and he uses it to gaslit her (and she doesn’t ever touch his hair or face???? What the fuck???), and then she slams the Falcon door in his mind-face. She’s never, ever RELIEVED to see him. But maybe that was that scene you invented wholecloth where she touches his face?
WHY AFTER THE THRONE ROOM BATTLE DOES SHE FEEL JOY THAT NOW THEY WOULD NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE AGAIN?
Because she’s heading back to the Resistance. Her first thought after the last Praetorian falls is to ask Kylo to call off the assault on the Resistance ships. She thinks, for that moment, that now that Snoke is dead, Kylo will choose to turn away from the First Order and she’ll be able to return to the Resistance before any more of their lives are lost. That her crazy gambit worked and she’s saved Finn and will see him again soon.
IF FINN IS HER TRUE LOVE WTF SHE CHEATING OR SOMETHING?
No, because she doesn’t give a fuck about Kylo romantically. She’s using him as much as he’s using her! She wants him to turn to the Light so she can bring him back to the Resistance as a tool against the military arm of the First Order. Period. MAYBE she also wants to do Leia a solid and deprogram her son from his death cult.
WHHHYYYY DOES SHE LET FINN GO SO EASILY IN TFA WHEN HE ASKS HER TO COME WITH HIM? SHE DOESNT SHED ONE TEAR AND SHE ONLY DOES IN THE FOREST AFTER HER BATTLE WITH KYLO. But when kylo can’t come with her, she cries like her heart is being ripped out?
…The reason she’s crying after her battle with Kylo is because she thinks Finn is about to die because Kylo tried to murder them. Per the TFA novel, she’s crying because she’s ready to die beside Finn there in the snow, Finn, “this man she already adores.” Per Rey herself, she hates Kylo Ren and thinks he’s a murderous snake who killed the closest thing to a father she’s ever had. She’s crying because the only person who’s ever come back for her – Finn – might die because he took up the lightsaber to defend her after she was knocked unconscious by a monster. She’s crying because coming to save her from Kylo Ren might have just cost the lives of the only people who’ve ever shown her kindnesss, aka Han and Finn and Chewie. She’s also probably traumatized because of, you know, having spent the last 24 hours being mind-raped and almost murdered by Kylo Ren.
Also, she’s literally crying when Finn tells her that he’s going to leave in Maz’s castle??? Did you actually watch either TFA or TLJ, or are you basing all of your SW Hot Takes off of other Reylos’ meta…?
Bruh, if u were to watch ANH without knowing Leia and Han were the romantic couple, you would say Leia and Luke were the romantic pair.
Because when ANH was written, they WERE the romantic couple, you ding-dong. The OT wasn’t written to be a trilogy, Lucas didn’t decide that Han and Leia were the endgame couple, or that Luke and Leia were twins, until writing ROTJ – AFTER FILMING BOTH OF THE OTHER MOVIES.
Also, there is a BIG difference between “Han is a self-protective cocky standoffish jerk with a heart of gold in ANH” and “Kylo Ren is a genocidal murderer who places his own entitlement to power above the literal lives and bodily autonomy of every other being in the Galaxy.” Can y’all… can y’all reylos truly not tell the difference between a “Bad Boy” (Han) and a bad person (Kylo)????
You’re welcome! I would suggest actually watching TFA and TLJ, not just relyin on metas written by reylos who are borderline just circle-jerking fanfiction and passing it off as being anything remotely close to what happened in canon.
