Chapter 7: The Crossing Must Be Near
There was a moment of palpable shock– well, Finn felt it, anyway, he didn’t know if Kes did– and then Kylo Ren said, low and amused, “Why, Kes Dameron, I never expected– perhaps I should have.”
“You know,” Kes said loudly, “I always figured you had your reasons for what happened and all. And I can even see my way to how somebody’d wanna stab Han Solo in the fucking chest. I just never pegged you for the type?”
“Have you come to save your son?” Kylo Ren asked. “That’s really moving. I hadn’t anticipated that at all.”
“No,” Kes said. “I mean, I’d love to, but that’s not why I’m here, entirely.”
“Why are you here, then?” Kylo Ren asked. “Surely General Organa wasn’t so tactless as to ask you.”
“She didn’t,” Kes said. “But I mean. I got pattern recognition skills, man. I don’t really know you, you were a little kid when I last talked to you so I’m not gonna pretend I can judge anything you done since then. But surely you noticed, like, Leia Organa’s got a pattern with my family, and that pattern is that she gets them killed. So I figured, who am I to fight that kind of destiny?”
