“Be with me”

[i-am-procrastinating-right-now]

Reylos I need everyone to listen to me right now.

I am not here to “fix” TROS for you or change your opinion but hear me out. I know we’re hurting. I am too. Believe me. This wasn’t something I “wanted” to see happen. All I’m asking is that you HEAR ME OUT because we literally got something in this film we have been asking for for four years now. Maybe this perspective can potentially help some of you. Because I know a lot of people are emotionally struggling.

Ben Solo did NOT die for nothing. He basically hobbled his way up to Rey and took her limp, lifeless body into his arms. He struggles so much, but it’s almost like he knows what has to happen. He goes in PLANNING to do this. He knows exactly what he needs to do and how because HE LOVES HER. The best part is, he doesn’t even know she loves him in return. He gives every last bit of life force he has left to her. When she wakes up, he’s happy. But also sad because he knows what’s going to happen. That changes. When Rey says his name, tenderly touches his face, and actually goes in for A KISS, what does our boy do? Something we’ve never once seen him do. He grins. It isn’t just a smile. It’s a toothy grin with dimples and even a soft, reliever chuckle. He. Is. HAPPY. This entire time he knows what is happening, yet he is happy. He WILLINGLY gave his life to this woman not even knowing if she loved him in return because he could not live a life without her. Then he finds out that she does love him. So you want my honest opinion? No. He did not die for nothing. He died to keep Rey safe. It’s beautiful. “Not fighting what we hate. SAVING WHAT WE LOVE.”

I would also like to add more to this. If you’re still not on board. Guys, Ben legitimately did what Anakin could not. HE. CHEATED. DEATH. TO SAVE. THE WOMAN. HE. LOVED. All of this was done in love!! This whole thing is reverse Anidala!!!

Now. Let’s move onto the scene later. I do not fully believe he’s “dead.” If you remember, Rey explains Force healing in a way of life force. Passing a bit of your own life on to another. He lives within her, guys. She will always feel and sense his presence. She will always know he’s still there because in ways, he’s now apart of her. In a much deeper and more connected way than they were before. He is living on through her, keeping her alive each and every day. Because apart of his life is within her.

I’ll admit, this wasn’t what I wanted to see happen. However, I don’t want to sit back and say everything was taken from us. Yes. I would have liked to see a bit more mourning. Is the movie perfect? No. It’s not. But I think what was done with Rey and Ben’s story is absolutely beautiful. Not to mention this movie literally made Reylo even canon to EVERYONE’S eyes. That, my friends. Is a victory.

Now, I sit here writing this with tears in my eyes. Yes. Goodbyes are hard. And yes. I did not want to see the one character I’ve been the most emotionally attached to ever die. BUT I will not allow myself to fully dislike or hate the very last work of this Saga that I’ve loved and held dear for so many years. I will not allow myself to hate something that could potentially have a beauty in it.

I will leave you all with one final thought that I think we all need to remember in this moment.

“NO ONE’S EVER REALLY GONE.”

Int: This is what people - This is what I love. I almost want to get all the outtakes of you guys in full costume doing this with each other. Gwen: No one likes it. We’ve annoyed everyone. We’ve annoyed everyone on set and they don’t want to be around us. We did alienate people over the years, didn’t we? Nik: Everyone didn’t appreciate the fun we were having.

Interviewer: I did want to see what you thought Jaime would think of Tormund’s sort of romantic intentions towards her character.

Gwen: Yeah, what do you think about that? (x)
