[ She says it with some hesitance, though she knows he's had them too. ]
I hear things, too. Ever since I was a child. Back then I thought it was just... memories, but the first time I touched the lightsaber I saw things from... the past, and the future. I saw you, in the forest, and I saw me, when my parents left me. I saw Luke facing Vader, too.
[He remembers that from probing her mind. They both know now it was the island Luke had been hiding on. Somehow she could see these things that he never would have dreamed of. All of his dreams had been darkness.]
I guess my point was that if we're connected so deeply, then maybe we can share things - memories, knowledge and all that. Though I guess sewing would be a silly way to use it.
[He smiles a bit, his eyes lighting up with the curiosity of it all.]
I want to know more and be able to test it sometime - just different things the bond could do.
[ Rey nods her head, smiling a little as he slips into that curious state of mind. It had annoyed her, at first, how he'd been more curious about their bond than angry like she had been. Now it's one of the things that endears him to her the most. ]
We can do that. It would be nice to learn more about it.
You can tell me when I’m being ridiculous, though. Something like the Force probably warrants a little more than me using it to cheat at learning to sew clothes.
[He had always had a curious mind. As a child it helped him learn his way around tinkering with droids and ships. At first, for the longest time, he had believed Snoke - and Palpatine as he now knew was the case - had been the only one to understand and sympathize with him. Rey had no ulterior motives behind being agreeable or listening to him. It made some small part of him - the most vulnerable piece of him that he kept locked up tight - want to weep in joy. It was something so small that was at war with the image of himself that he put out in the world.]
I’ve spent my whole life learning about the Force and this is the thing that has me asking questions.
