pre-tlj fanfic ben: *stares at his face in the mirror* that filthy scavenger ruined my face. with MY grandfather’s lightsaber. how DARE she? who the fuck does she think she is? i’m so fucking pisSED

canon ben: *touches his scar reverently with tears in his eyes* wow. she marked me for life… i’m hers forever now. can’t believe this is my life. i’m so blessed *puts a black bandaid on it so it stands out nicely*

I feel that they have to go back to Jakku at some point in IX. Thematically it’s so fitting, and the new eu and lore has done so much to make Jakku both important historically, but also as a place of intrigue and mystery (secret Palpatine research facilities ? The planet is partially a weapon. etc) 

Also Finn getting to do this when he hears they’re going back to Jakku:

Greatest pieces of star wars merch I own:

  • The Build A Bear Rabbit in a Kylo Ren outfit that I got for a dollar.
  • The JCpenny Kylo and Rey shirt that they accidentally sent a child’s small for, so now it’s a crop top.

Dear child. I see your eyes. You already know the truth. Whomever you’re waiting for on Jakku, they’re never coming back. But… there’s someone who still could. The belonging you seek is not behind you. It is ahead. I am no Jedi, but I know the Force. It moves through and surrounds every living thing. Close your eyes. Feel it. The light. It’s always been there. It will guide you.
