Reblog If you're A Reylo Who Also Loves Finn

gays be like "this is my comfort film" and it's Captain America: The Winter Soldier

found this on Instagram, not sure who it’s truly from tho but the meaning is definitely something I don’t think many people understand. So I just want to put this out there for anyone who has doubts about their relationship.

saw the cutest wedding photobooth-esque pic and had to draw it as spirk :,)

TLJ: rey’s parents were nobodies. she doesn’t descend from some ancient bloodline. her strength is not attributed to some (male) ancestor, it comes solely from herself.

TROS: *makes rey a palpatine*

me:

TLJ: rey’s parents were bad people who sold her. this is thematically important to her whole arc about finding her identity. in order to grow and mature as a character, she must let go of the idealised picture of her parents she has in her head and the harmonious infancy she never had. she wants her parents to be good, noble people, and by having them be bad nobodies, we force her to change and grow, to create her own place in the universe/her own identity. 

TROS: actually rey’s parents were G O O D  P E O P L E who sold her to ~protect~ her uwu

me:

TLJ: we killed snoke to make room for the actually interesting conflict, the one between the conflicted supreme leader kylo ren and the resistance, his mother and rey.

TROS: *brings back palpatine*

me:

TLJ: the jedi failed. they were arrogant and stuck in their ways. they were so terrified of the dark side that they turned a blind eye to the darkness rising with palpatine. they deal in absolutes. it is time to let this flawed order die. we must learn from our past mistakes. failure is the greatest teacher.

TROS: rey is a jedi now

me:

TLJ: rey and kylo have a complicated relationship. they are beyond physically fighting each other, they now have to figure out their emotional conflict on how they are going to navigate their force bond connection and ambiguous feelings as supreme leader and resistance fighter. 

TROS: *more lightsaber fight nonsense*

me:

TLJ: rose is a self-assured, determined character, an integral part of this story. she acts as moral authority to finn, helps him find his purpose in the resistance and embodies hope, resilience and fighting for the right cause.

TROS: *1:16 minutes of screen time*

me:

TLJ: rose and finn share a kiss

TROS: …y'all hear sumn?

me:

me @ disney, jj abrams, chris terrio or whoever is responsible for this mess:

Neteyam being desperate for Aonung’s attention

Let me get this straight…

They decided to make a movie taking into account feedback and complaints that certain fans had about the first two films in the trilogy. That resulted in a fan service and nostalgia filled mess that made little cohesive sense and has been slammed by critics and fans and is now the worst reviewed Star Wars movie.

They had a stellar cast, in particular Academy Award Nominee Adam Driver, one of the best actors of this generation.

He played Kylo Ren/Ben Solo, arguably the best and most popular character of the ST.

They gave him no dialogue in the second half and completely underused this immensely talented actor yet he still gave it his all and stole the movie.

They killed off his character in the most tragic, unsatisfying way.

Now, a month after the movie was released, this character they killed unceremoniously is all anyone can talk about. The one thing everyone can agree on is that Ben Solo and Adam’s portrayal of him was the highlight of the film and the ST.

#BenSoloChallenge was trending.

In memory of this character over $80k has been raised for Adam’s non profit organisation, Arts in the Armed Forces.

Reylo has skyrocketed in popularity and the fandom has created so much new content.

The Rise of Kylo Ren #1 was one of the best selling comics of 2019, even though it was only released on December 18, two weeks before the end of the year.

Adam Driver has been nominated for an Academy Award for the second year in a row.

No one is talking about the trio, Palpatine’s return, Rey Skywalker or any of the nostalgic fan service. It’s all about Ben Solo.

They in no way did this character’s journey justice. They threw him under the bus for their own selfish reasons even though it didn’t make sense for the narrative. They tried to throw him into a pit never to be seen again but the jokes on them because now Ben Solo is more alive than ever!

I hope Disney realises they made a huge mistake in killing off this character and prioritising their childhood nostalgia over a well written story.

Dear golden boy, whose love language is physical touch

There are no actual parallels tbh but nobody will argue that both of that ships a r e beautiful ✨ crying ~ kylo/rey + ulquiorra/orihime
