Btw, notice that the last part says that Rey wanted to deceive him after all in the throne room, it says she was scared, I guess she panicked and didn't know what else to do...

Crystal Clear

Meh, I'm more inclined to go with whatever version said "she considered" taking his hand (Can't remember if it was Fry's version or the Junior novel or the illustrated book)

The alternative just comes across as cruel.

I mean, I get it... But it's still cruel to mess with his feelings like that.

Foxie

I think it was neither of those, it was some commentary or audiobook or whatever

And the line "She considers it" can actually mean considering what the Ben's proposal actually means, what's he asking of her and it actually is in line with what we deduced and that is that Rey got scared, because she figured he wanted her in a sexual way. Which I can see why it can be really scary for various reasons for a girl like Rey.



And btw, this novelisation was made according to the script too.




I don't know, I just don't mind it. It shows that Rey is not perfect like some people insist. She really has a dark side. Funny thing is, that Rey is the one who is constantly hurting Kylo/Ben, not the other way around. In TFA she hurt him physicaly, in TLJ emotionally. And it wasn't pretty in TFA, one would say that she was cruel too.

Crystal Clear

I think that's my favorite aspect of TLJ. The simple acknowledgement that Snoke had no idea of the genuine affection Rey and Ben have for each other. Particularly on Ben's side. It's totally obvious from Snoke's reaction in his death scene that he did NOT see Kylo's betrayal coming.



This is why I need Rey to verbalize some genuine affection for him in IX. Ben has spent too much of his life thinking that everybody just sets out to hurt him.

Foxie

And I think we'll get it. Not only for Ben, but also for the non-believing fans

IT'S ME, EVERYONE! Gwen! I just had a name change

I've added my previous name 4brathan&brucas to my profile stats, in case anyone forgets.

xmag

Hey, Gwen, I didn't know you could change your alias. Not that I want to change mine, I'm happy with xmag. Subtle reference to my first big, big tv fandom (not shipping fandom, though, that was Michael and Maria), which was… The X-files. Therefore the Xbefore the mag (my name being Magali ).

Yeah, it's funny that Rey is always more… volatile where Ren is concerned: insulting him, scarring him, shooting him, when he is always more calm, reasonable and not in a Killing mood, with her.

But he is the abuser, apparently.

Crystal Clear

It's something only Moderators can do, Mag

I would have done it years ago, otherwise. I had a username related to One Tree Hill the whole time, a show I got tired of a decade ago.


DOUBLE STANDARDS of today! People in general abuse the word Feminism these days. Some people choose to blame male characters for everything because of their misunderstandings and hold them responsible for things that the female character is just as responsible for.

Foxie

Hi, Gwen cool new username for a while I thought we had a new Reylo fan, but unfortunately it's just you just kidding, I love you

a new hope

Love the new username, Gwen

Foxie

Never forget
