[yeah, son, meet poe dameron, who may literally be insane. that is the only way to explain the numerous decisions he has made out of blind faith, unrelenting stupidity, or a mixture of both. the "oh that crazy fn-2187's in trouble again and is getting hauled off somewhere whatever" logic seems to hold for them. somehow. they make it to the hangar. even poe's like "wow. i can't believe i actually did that."
and the getting there? it was ingenious, really. his idea. taking a crash-landed tie fighter, fixing it back up, and flying it right back into a first order hangar. side note: he "repaired" it with the star wars equivalent of duct tape and hopes and dreams in like a couple hours, so. there's ... a lot that could go wrong here. he's been trying not to think about it. this ridiculous good luck streak is going to end any minute now, as as he gets closer to the finish line, the major ways in which is could go wrong are becoming impossible to at least consider.
a) first order people being like "what is this sad-ass looking unsanctioned tie fighter doing in our hangar" b) the first order firing on the tie fighter as soon as they exit ala what happened last time c) the tie fighter giving up on life and exploding of its own volition because it's held together by duct tape and dreams
you know what we gotta get the fuck out of here. they are going to die any hecking minute now.
it's still there, at least. maybe they left it alone. or put a tracker on it. maybe this is some sort of experiment; they're just letting poe get away with it because they're sure it's going to backfire in his face. fn-2187 is totally going to kill poe and take him off their hands. could that be a thing???? shit, that could totally be a thing. no that's stupid dameron, cease all thinking immediately. you know, back to the usual.
he sort of unceremoniously shoves finn into the tie fighter like let's go fam. gotta go fast. also the helmet is immediately coming off. his hair was dying and now it is free.]
You backed me up on one of these before, remember? Same principle as firing a blaster.
