Absolutely Beautiful Gif Set - Regardless How One Feels On The Kylo/Rey Situation, This Is Such An Ode

Absolutely beautiful gif set - regardless how one feels on the Kylo/Rey situation, this is such an ode to Kylo/Ben and the evolution we see in him between the films. It’s important to remember too, there are only a few hours/days between the two films.

The Force Awakens 2015 / The Last Jedi 2017

People talk about how much Chris Evans embodies Steve Rogers, but we can never ever forget that RDJ is even more so Tony Stark. He may not have been kidnapped and held hostage, he may not have created the suit that allowed him to escape his imprisonment...but in his own way, he did.

i’m just gonna leave this here as a reminder that “hitting bottom” doesn’t mean “staying on bottom for the rest of your life and dying as a piece of crap”

Sorcery!!

Me: Heh, Morgan Freeman...

<< Reads the caption, goes to swipe the screen >>

That’s when I realized it was as though Morgan Freeman was suddenly the narrator of my own brain.

*Morgan Freeman voiceover*: It was in that moment when Kylo realized…that Snoke was so fucking dead.

What if this is how Ben fell to the dark side? He was without balance for his first ten years of life and succumbed to Snoke’s whispers?

Hey did you know that Rey is 19 and Kylo is around 29? :0 isn’t that crazy?

Well, if this were real life I might give that a side-eye. But, you know, given that this is the same universe where we’re supposed to believe Kylo’s granddaddy was conceived via immaculate-ish conception (still my biggest WTF in this entire universe, tbh) it doesn’t really phase me. 

Mentally, emotionally, and in every other possible way they are two halves of the same whole. They are the only people in the entire galaxy who can understand what the other is going through. They’re both adults, and so to me their actual, chronological age matters very little. At least that’s how I view it. 

Aaannnndddd today I learned that the line “Poe gives the best hugs” is enough to make me blush like a school girl and get hot and bothered. Congrats on teaching me something new @xwings-and-stardust

A/N: Y’all, I’m not in love with this part. I’m sorry. I re-wrote this one 3 times, and am on my second re-write of Part 6. I feel like if I left these little fillers and bits of (what will become) backstory out it was going to be too big of a jump between major plot points, but damnit I just can’t seem to fill the gap nicely.

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

You’re not sure how long you and Poe just sat there, but when your alarm goes off to let you know it’s time to head back to base you’d swear it had only been an hour since he showed up.

The beeping startles him, and you have to suppress a small smile as he jumps a bit, confusion all over his face.

“Sorry about that,” you murmur as you quickly silence the alarm on your datapad. Something about being in this place with him makes it feel as though anything louder than a whisper is unwelcome. “I need to start heading back to base… I have friends who will worry if I’m gone any longer than I already have been.”

He smiles, and tilts his head. “Jess?”

“Hmm, yep,” you confirm as you busy yourself with putting your things back in your pack. Grabbing two ration bars, you offer him one as you sling the bag over your shoulder. “Breakfast?”
