After losing Ben Solo, the world both in real life and in a galaxy far far away mourned him like no other. Reylo became the #1 Tumblr Ship of 2020 iirc and that to me really showed how much love there is and always will be for Rey & Ben/Kylo's relationship and even more for the stories they didn't get have together because of usual corporate stooge bullshit. The world seemed like it was unraveling with people dying everywhere yet hope still persisted and Reylo was the best example of that to me.
The way that Ben Solo has become the biggest problem is karma for Disney and pretty much why they're terrified to do anything with his character. They don't wanna bring him back because of their own inability to understand his importance to Star Wars. They want to make you and everyone who reads this post pay all your hard-earned money with every character they can throw at us that's on the table... trying to run from your fears never works Disney... Grogu ain't saving yo ass bitch 😂
What are they afraid of you might ask? Reylo. It's too powerful to be ignored or suppressed. They can't use Rey yet cause that means the questions about Ben that they're desperate to avoid, in vain of course but let them think they've got us dialed. They keep calling the wrong number. The number is 10. Episode Ten.
You do one final story about The Skywalker Family finally getting their happily ever after. THAT is the only story truly needed to bring the story of The Skywalker Family to a beautiful end.
The only reason it'll probably take till 2030 or some dumb shit like that is because Disney keeps playing in our faces and not being brave enough to give us what they damn well know we fucking want.
Disney if you don't understand how to make a happy ending for everyone anymore, stop trying to convince yourself that it'll all work out... it hasn't and it won't. The longer you run, the more fun it'll be to watch you fall and give in to The Reylo Side of things. The happiness they themselves have cultivated for decades has now taken a new form, Reylo. It haunts them. HE haunts them like he does Rey. It's very meta in a heartbreaking way.
The story of Reylo can go on forever and it will. With or without Disney. They can't stand that. Good. Rey and Ben deserve sooo much better than Disney. I imagine DreamWorks would do a very fun take on Reylo lol
