#HONESTLY I WAS READING THAT BIT IN POE’S CHAPTER #AND IT PUTS HIS HOPEFUL LITTLE ‘ARE YOU WITH THE REBELLION?’ LINE IN TFA WHEN FINN SAYS HE’S THERE TO RESCUE HIM IN A WHOLE NEW PERSPECTIVE #A VERY SAD PERSPECTIVE #THE PERSPECTIVE OF POE HOPING AGAINST HOPE THAT THE RESISTANCE DID IN FACT COME FOR HIM #TO CLARIFY: POE UNDERSTANDS THE RISKS HE’S TAKING AND ACCEPTS THEM; LEIA DOESN’T FORCE HIM TO GO ON THESE MISSIONS #HE HAS A CHOICE NOT TO BUT DECIDES TO DO IT #I JUST FEEL A LOT ABOUT THIS #I FEEL A LOT ABOUT POE WANDERING THE JAKKU DESERT; ONCE AGAIN ALONE AND FEELING GUILTY AS FUCK #THAT HE ACCIDENTALLY KILLED THE ONE PERSON WHO HELPED HIM AND WHO ALSO TURNED OUT TO BE A WONDERFUL PERSON #I FEEL A LOT ABOUT POE TELLING LEIA WHAT FINN DID AND LEIA FEELING GUILTY ABOUT POE AND GRATEFUL TO THIS YOUNG MAN SHE HAS NEVER MET #I FEEL MOST OF ALL ABOUT THE LOOK ON POE’S FACE WHEN HE SEES FINN ALIVE AND WHOLE ON D’QAR #AND THEN RUNS ACROSS THE AIRFIELD INTO FINN’S ARMS & LOOKS AT FINN LIKE HE HANGS THE STARS EVERY NIGHT AND MAKES THE SUN RISE IN THE MORNING
I’m going to go lie down and cry now.
