I Asked Gilgamesh Once Why He Chose To Protect Me? He Said: When You Love Something, You Protect It.

The current Justice League members in order of when they first appeared in DC Comics!

Tragic romances can work beautifully, so long as the audience gets to see the actual romance before it all goes downhill.

Romeo and Juliet exchanged wedding vows in secret. Anakin and Padme spent time frolicking through the fields of Naboo together. Will and Louisa went to Mauritius for a romantic getaway. Jack and Rose had their iconic "I'm flying!" scene.

But Ben and Rey had none of that. A man who was preyed upon since conception, who wanted nothing more than to be "free of [his] pain," was freed only in death. A woman who spent her entire life longing for a family of her own was finally(!!!) rewarded with one for all of ten seconds, before regressing back to square one, as if her whole journey was a nihilistic game of 'Snakes and Ladders.'

That ending is neither 'hopeful' nor cathartic. And it certainly has no place in a fairytale.

The Rise of Kylo Ren

Okay so, just read the last issue of The Rise of Kylo Ren and here is everything we have learned from this comic:

1. Ben did not destroy Luke’s temple. Palpatine did, and somehow he gaslighted Ben into thinking he was responsible.

2. Ben thought he killed Luke but it was in self-defense, but he still feels enormously guilty about it.

3. Ben did not kill ANY of Luke’s other students that night. He was instead relentlessly hunted by a small group of them across the galaxy, including one (Voe) who had a particularly large chip on her shoulder wrt to Ben and feeling inadequate in comparison to his Force-abilities.

4. Ben wanted to go home to Leia but felt he couldn’t because he didn’t think she would believe him.

5. Snoke was just casually in his head having full-on conversations with him when he was at least 11 or 12 years old, feeding him lies about his family and how they didn’t really give a shit about him.

6. Ben killed one of the Jedi students hunting him by accident.

7. He turns to the Knights of Ren because he literally feels like he doesn’t belong anywhere else.

8. He openly acknowledges that even Snoke only cares about his legacy and not himself as a person.

9. HE DOES NOT WANT TO KILL ANYONE. Even after he joins the KoR, he goes out of his way to avoid killing if possible… until it’s no longer possible.

10. He did not “fall to” or “choose” the dark side – he was gaslit and pushed into it. Treat someone like a monster long enough, they will start to believe it.

11. Ben doesn’t think he’s “special”. He just wants to be treated like a normal fucking person.

12. The first person that Ben killed on purpose was Ren, the leader/founder of the Knights of Ren, thereby facilitating his fall to the dark.

13. Leia felt his fall…

14. … AND SO DID LITTLE BABY REY

15. Ben finally killed Voe after he killed Ren.

16. Ben’s preferred mode of drawing his saber was from over his shoulder, like at the end of TROS.

17. He bled his kyber crystal while shirtless, and he squeezed it so hard that it cracked.

18. He never did anything wrong, ever, in his life, and they still let him die.

Reblog if you agree

Did you notice that we had a short cut of Dark Rey in TROS teaser, and we had a scene with Cal when he's a sith?

Did you notice that both Ben and Trilla were somehow betrayed by their Masters? By Luke and Cere.

Did you notice that both Rey and Cal discover the truth about Kylo Ren and Second Sister through the touch? Rey touches Ben's hand while Cal touches Trilla's lightsaber. And how then Rey and Cal are showing compassion to their enemies:

"It isn't too late"

and

"It's not too late to let it go".

And do you remember how both Luke and Cere got the chance to confront their former Padawans and say sorry. And how they expressed basically the same idea as Rey and Cal did.

Leia: I know my son is gone.

Luke: No one's ever really gone.

Trilla: It's too late, Cere.

Cere: No. It's not.

I can't believe this. I'm telling you that is some kind of a strange deja vù. And it's freaking amazing. Somehow, I believe that Trilla may be still alive, just heavily wounded by Vader, so eventually she'll come back in a next game. Hope is always with us anyway :)

You’re important to me.
