when rey’s search for inner significance became rey’s quest to fit a mold, we all lost.
#maybe i'll explain this later#i'm not saying seeking a niche is bad#or even finding one#but when rey's story became about 'deserving'#and lost sight of discovering what makes you you#warts and all#it negated every bit of character development that came before#the whole concept of the heroine's journey is about finding out who you are#and making it work for you#learning to the point that you improve without promting#* prompting#the whole point of finding a niche#is discovering where you individually can do something#or enjoy something#in a way unique to you and yes may also benefit a wider group#rey's whole story arc was that in a world of skywalkers and palpatines#she was going to be a new breed doing things differently#and then we lost that completely#and utterly#with the name-stealing ending#and ending up right back where the whole story began#in a place devoid of hope#that someone had to LEAVE in order to start their life#i don't know i'm tired this probably doesn't make sense#❛ gonk gonk. gonk ko kyenga see. ❜ » ooc
