[He couldn't quite articulate what he was feeling, and yet he knew she would understand. She always seemed to understand him.]
What Snoke did to you- I felt it too, just as I felt your pain tonight.
[He realizes that he put that pain there by letting Snoke have her even for a moment. He had set her up for the sake of his own desire to kill Snoke before he could kill him. He knows that, on some level, there were moments that he didn't care if she lived or died. Right now he absolutely cared. Feeling her pain so acutely had driven him to act.]
I can't do something like that. What he did.
[Not only was he just not powerful enough within the dark side of the Force, but he'd been so intrigued by her - her thoughts, her loneliness - that the thought of snuffing her out made him hesitate. Yet they collided like two magnets on opposing sides.
Laying with her now, he felt it. He felt her emotions and her energy like an electric current rippling through him. The part of him that he kept locked up tight, vulnerable and weak and useless to him as it was, had reached out to her and saw itself reflected back through her. It unconsciously reached out to her, as his side of their connection did within the Force.]
