She could have killed him but instead
Okay, Rey could have killed Ben after the Supremacy split. She could have killed the most powerful dark side user currently known in the galaxy who was unconscious in that moment. She could have killed the knew leader of the First Order and ended the war. She could have even hog tied him and brought him into custody to the resistance. But she didn’t. Why? Because she’s giving him a second chance. She’s still fighting for him. BUT, she realizes now Ben’s redemption isn’t going to be something she can trick him into doing, it’s not a choice she can make for him. It has to be something he decides on his own, a path he chooses on his own accord.
So what does she do? She leaves him to make the choice on his own, she closes the Millennium Falcon door on him with the look of disappointment because it has to be Ben’s choice to do the right thing and give up the darkness. By leaving him, she’s really fighting for him. She cares for Ben Solo, but she can’t force him to give up Kylo Ren. He has to choose to give that up on his own.
And honestly, to have the kind of strength to let go of somebody you care about about so they can choose a better life – even if it’s without you. Like how freaking beautiful is that? And when he does decide to give up the Kylo Ren persona she’ll be waiting for him. But I think she understands that sometimes the silence speaks more powerfully than any arguments she can throw at him, and that’s why she leaves. Because if she really didn’t care for him, if she really didn’t want to see him come home, she could have just ended him right then and there. She could have captured him and put him in prison, but instead she left him with his freedom so he could BE free to make the right choice.
In Star Wars they don’t say ‘I love you’ they say ‘You come from nothing. You’re nothing. But not to me.’ And I think that’s beautiful.
48 years ago a girl said “oh fuck me” to her best friend while walking in the street, a guy who randomly passed by answered by “let me at least buy you dinner first”. I present to you my grandparents, in love since then and celebrating their 47 years of marriage today.
