[Well....okay then? So if she wouldn't remember much, then maybe, neither would he.]

Still, it's an opportunity I'm sure someone else in the Order would've taken...

[So why wouldn't he? Unless he really does want to talk to her..]

Do you know why we're connected?

[fulfillourdestiny]

The Order have other methods

[Does he?]

... No.

[talentedscavenger]

Right...

[She doesn't believe him, but... he doesn't know why they're connected...that she can believe.]

Have you told Snoke about this?

[fulfillourdestiny]

Supreme Leader Snoke is always aware.

[No, he's not told him. Snoke tends to know everything about him. It can be ... tiring]

[talentedscavenger]

[...Right, which is why she's curious to how Snoke will take to this. He'll find out sooner or later...

Which only makes her think that if there was a chance in hell that she would turn to Ren as her Master, if Snoke wished it, he would kill her.]

Not always, otherwise he would've sent you to Jakku. [Before she found BB-8. Before any of this began.]

[fulfillourdestiny]

He did.

[Listen, the droid escaping with the plans was not something they had seen. People being sneaky seems to confuse even the strongest of Force users]

[talentedscavenger]

[She stares at him, not wanting to believe it. That's a damn lie!]

No. He didn't. [She hadn't done anything with the Force on Jakku! At least, not that she knew of.]

[fulfillourdestiny]

There is more than Nima Outpost on that planet. We had business elsewhere. It's not always about you, Scavenger.

[talentedscavenger]

I was never trying to make this about me!

[And there he goes, getting under her skin.]

[fulfillourdestiny]

No, but life has an inadvertent way of putting the focus on you.

[talentedscavenger]

I didn't ask for that. I didn't ask for any of this.

[fulfillourdestiny]

No one who has the Force asks for it.

[There may be a tinge of bitterness]

You're either born with strength in it, or not.

[talentedscavenger]

[That bitterness is something that feels in herself. She didn't want any of this...]

Even you. [It's a statement, not a question.]

I tried running away from it, and it lead me to you.

[fulfillourdestiny]

My family is strong in the Force. My Mother, my Uncle, and my Grandfather. There was no question of my being strong in the Force.

[He doesn't react to that, not visibly, but it he find it an interesting statement to make]

The Force... will try to guide your way.

[talentedscavenger]

But it sounds like you didn't want it to be.

...and guide me to you?

[She doesn't want to believe that. Not in the least.]

[fulfillourdestiny]

This is a dream.

[It really does sound like he's saying that as if to give him an excuse for what he is saying. For not being the monster that she was expecting]

When I was younger, it may not have been my top desire.

[He's silent at that comment. Does he think the Force guided her to him? No, not really. That was more just something that happened. He can't really lie though. They've both somewhat declared neutral ground by buying into the "it's a dream" thing.]

To whatever it needs from you.

[talentedscavenger]

[Yes, she was quite aware that this was a dream. But him...a monster...she wants to believe that, but the longer she is around him, the more she starts to see him as human. Someone who has a past, and someone who is...lost. He doesn't seem fully committed to the Darkside, but she wouldn't tell him that.]

..doesn't make sense.

[For it to lead her to him. To have him in her dream, or to be connected as they were. She was meant to train with Luke, wasn't she? Otherwise, why would she have his lightsaber? But if she was meant to go to him, why did she feel so connect to Ren?]

[fulfillourdestiny]

What doesn't?

[talentedscavenger]

[ She might as well say it. Doubtful he'd remember it later. ]

Why I keep being drawn back to you. The Force is telling me to go to Luke, but keeps placing you in my path.

[fulfillourdestiny]

[That could mean that he's meant to go to Luke as well, but frankly he doesn't much like that idea]

Interesting

[talentedscavenger]

That's all you can say?

[fulfillourdestiny]

You expect me to come out with some long winded explanation of why this is happening? I'm as much in the dark as you are.

[talentedscavenger]

I was hoping you would have an answer. You have a better idea of how the Force works. [ Because she's still so new to this. ]

[fulfillourdestiny]

I've been trained. It doesn't mean I have all the answers. I'm no Master.

[He actually sounds a little irritated that she thought he did]

[talentedscavenger]

Then why would you want to teach me?

[ This entire thing is starting to confuse her. Didn't she need a Master to teach her? Not that she was considering him to teach her but...yeah. ]
