i've felt like i had to push others away before. i think everyone feels like that sometimes, when they're upset or scared or working through something heavy. but that's ... i don't know. it's really lonely if you're that way all the time. we're never as strong as we are when we're working together with other people. especially if you've got people you can trust to support you no matter what. i had that.
to cut yourself off completely from the possibility of that is pretty sad, if you ask me.
is there anything else we can do for her, do you think? besides hanging around while she goes off doing who knows what? because if there's something more i could do, i'd do it, but i'm not seeing the options.
well, i don't think you're wrong for feeling that way. it's a complicated situation, and you're real close to it. i know the big plan is not leaving her alone, but you might need some time apart to cool off from the whole thing. that helped me after my big fight with her.
i haven't had a chance to talk to him about how my chat with her went, but he's on the same page as us. he thinks her whole thing with trying to turn kylo ren is suicide, she didn't trust us with it because she knew we wouldn't agree to it, but if we try to talk her out of it, it's just gonna make things worse. if he talks with her, i don't feel like it's gonna change anything. she'll just find a reason to blow up at him like she did at you.
do you mean the future she saw? you think that's why she's doing this? i don't know. i mean, you're probably right that it has something to do with everything but it's not like
finn wouldn't want her doing all this. that i know that for a fact.
i doubt it. i think it's a kylo ren thing. and a rey thing, apparently. to think that just because you're special, no one else is gonna ever understand you.
i feel bad that she feels that way, you know. nobody should have to feel that way. but just telling her that we're here for her is all we can do, and she's not gonna listen to that until she wants to. i don't have any other strategy for dealing with this. besides ... who knows, throwing her a birthday party.

you think rey has trouble trusting people because of how she grew up? yeah... that makes sense.
no subject
And Rey has a hard time having this many people involved.
Especially when what she's doing is confusing.
I struggled the same way when I got here. But Rey is better at people than I'll ever be. It might just be a problem now.

And then you came and told me that I came at her with a sword.

But I talked to Loki and it sounded like a better idea.
It was still a better idea.

She said she had to defend me to him. I don't know why. I don't think he had a problem with me.
no subject
but if he's training rey to do force stuff, he probably has a problem with anyone getting too close to her. that's my best guess.

That isn't a Rey thing.
But it's a Rey fear. From before.
