i already said all i gotta say to him. just keep it in your room, all right?
Can she retract that statement and find a way to make it sound less like she already had plans to lock Kylo Ren in her bedroom for days at a time because.
No? No, it's in the world already. Cool. Just gonna barrel straight past it and try not to let it linger for comment. ]
Have you found work? We'll have to split the rent.
i was trying to figure out how to say it! i saw you and kylo ren talking about it on the network and i knew i needed to tell you about it then he was actually THERE when you asked and
it got all messed up
i'm sorry, i didn't mean for any of that to happen. i didn't mean to lie to you
[ So he'd lied about that too -- he had seen the network post. The injured, frustrated part of her wants to hold that against him, wants to insist that he must have meant to lie to her or he wouldn't have done it. But that doesn't get her anywhere, does it? ]
i don't remember most of it. i remember feeling really angry and he was there. i think he was making fun of me. and i just got SO MAD, and i tried to take him. then i blacked out.
[ That's what she comes back to. She doesn't know how to feel about the fact that in addition to the murder basement inside of his mind, Poe was also hiding this. It's overwhelming on top of recognizing that he'd stood by and watched after being responsible for the grief that his dragging up Han Solo's name had caused. ]
Because you were afraid I'd be upset? No one was entirely themselves in the dream. I don't hold what you did there against you. No one should. But what you did after that, pretending you didn't know what I was talking about, leaving me to wonder if it was really him ... That was wrong, Poe. You should have tried.
[ This she hammers home only because it seems like 'I didn't know how to say it' is a justification, something he could hide behind again. Rey isn't interested in holding the past against him, or anyone else--just in changed behavior. ]
[ She doesn't like that he's doubled down now on blaming his not telling her on Kylo's presence, but Rey's not gonna fight that fight. He's already sorry, and he knows it was a bad call, and that's all she wants. ]

[ No story she wants to tell, anyway. Honestly, she wouldn't know where to start. Better to deal with the immediate situation. ]
