I’ve been thinking this for years and fuck it I’m going to shout into the void about it, but I am very surprised that I still have yet to find any talk of Ben Solo x Kylo Ren as a ship.
Like don’t get me wrong, I love the depictions of them as brothers or something akin to that, it’s adorable and I’m here for it.
But at the same time there is something about the idea of falling in love with a side of yourself you tried so hard to smother out, that is just so… intriguing.
More under the cut because I have a vision here and I am perched on my little soapbox ready to rant about it.
Something about spending years abhorring this piece of your own mind, trying so desperately to kill it and rid yourself of any trace of who you believe to be a manifestation of your own weaknesses or shortcomings, digging deeper and deeper into your psyche to try and uproot it. And in the end, all you manage to find is a terrifyingly intimate understanding of yourself, the fragments you broke away from, and what made you try to sweep them under the rug and burn the house down to hide any trace that they were ever there in the first place.
And to watch them persevere through it all anyway, clawing their way out of every grave you tried to condemn them to, still holding on to the hope that maybe one day you’ll let them live long enough to remember what it’s like to be seen and loved for everything they’ve been made to believe was unworthy of a place in the lifetime you share. To realize that all the cruelty you’ve inflicted on them is just a mirror image of the same cruelty that created the version of yourself you’ve become without them.
And now you’re both just here, bound by the same ache of knowing that no matter which face you wear, nobody in the galaxy would ever see beyond the reflections of who they’ve decided you are to them. Either way, you’d still never be able to give the people on the outside everything they wanted from you.
When all you have left in this life is the voice in your head you’ve been running from, and you’re all out of places to hide, what choice do you have but to listen?
I have a much longer rant about this tucked away, but the main point here is that I think Ben and Ren should meet in the world between worlds/force limbo or whatever, have a heated argument about their internal conflict, end it off crying in each others arms and maybe make out a little idk.

A Proposal by Any Other Name, Chapter 33: Champagne Bubbles | A Reylo fanfic
READ CHAPTER 33 HERE (On AO3)
Chapter summary: This is the waltz that never ends: one step forward, but how many steps back?
Chapter preview:
She’s attracted to him. That realization had slammed into her like a hurricane two weeks ago on a chilly night at 1AM, when Kylo pressed his lips to her fingertips and promised her his undivided affections as long as she remained in Dingle, for better or worse, and she can’t decide which one it is. Curse the man, and his stupidly romantic tales about direct lines to the heart as he’d stared at her.
Rey gnaws on her lip and stares at Maz’s ancient computer screen without really seeing. Not that she’d been able to see anything lately outside of a painfully handsome man named Kylo Ren, with his painfully gorgeous eyes and sensual pout, both of are which now engraved into the back of her lids like spots after staring at the sun too long. Worse yet, constantly being aware of him only makes her feel that she may be in well over her head this time, her heart and brain at odds with themselves. One screams that it feels good and right while the other shouts that she’d been burnt once, that it’s all going too fast.
Author’s note: EEEYYYY We’re back <3 Enjoy! I was going to wait to post until Friday but uh, then I remembered Friday is both Celebration and when the TLJ trailer drops and let’s be honest, we all know I would not be in the mood to write and publish when I’m busy geeking over TLJ, nor would my readers be in the mood to read when WE HAVE MORE IMPORTANT SHIT TO TALK ABOUT. So in preparation for the amazing storm of awesome we’re about to receive on Friday, I’m posting now. Let’s call it an early celebration ;p
