A memory rose unbidden, sharp and too bright. He closed his eyes, as if he could push the thought away. But it didn’t help. There in his mind it was so clear, almost like he was in the moment again...

“You can’t invite a woman over, keep her up all night, and then not have snacks. It’s inhumane! Illegal, probably.”
Her nose wrinkled as she delivered the accusation, but her grin betrayed her.
Ben’s lips curved, slow and helpless. Something about the whole situation was ridiculous, her in his clothes, tearing apart his kitchen like it belonged to her. And yet the sight lodged deep inside him, like an anchor.
He realized, standing there in the dim light of his kitchen, that he wanted her. Just Rey. In his shirt. In his home. In his life. For as long as he could have her.

“You don’t belong here,” he levels at her.

Her chest clenches in answer—I know.

The Twi’lek leans forward. “I’ll tell you a secret—”

#reylofic #reylo

A black and white moodboard for the Reylo fanfic Moral Ascendancy. Along the left side, there are pictures of a First Order interrogation chair, a palace with circular turrets on a hill, and Kylo Ren's face. On the right, there is Rey's face, craggy rocksialnds wreathed in fog, and a woman's body in sleek and fitted black armour. In the middle, italicized text reads: "You seem to have forgotten that I surpass you all in both rank and power—and can therefore do whatever the fuck I want. And now she does as well."

chapter two of a haunted heart is coming theoretically soon (if these two would shut up!) #reylosss

“No, nothing like that. It’s just—well, it’s a different spelling, but it was my mother’s name. Would be quite a coincidence if you shared it and—” Ben said, dropping his gaze back to Genesis, “I don’t really think of you in a maternal way.”

“You don’t?” Her tone was shy, a little pleased.

No, he thought, he was starting to think of her in a way that was improbable, impossible. And right on track for a Solo.

“No. I don’t.”

i picked up my 10-year-old cat last night and lifted her to the light fixture in the hallway so she could get closer to a moth she was trying to hunt. the satisfaction i felt when she caught it and ate it in my arms was immense. best cat mom day ever.

update to this #sapphic #reylofic for #reylogenderbend

“to speak, perchance to dream”
rated e, 3/4

🏜️ she puts the menace in lavender menace but yeah i'd fuck her
🏜️ sexual tension stretched so taut it snaps
🏜️ rey loves women; that's it, that's the vibe

archiveofourown.org/works/66875035/

a desert skyline. it's hazy and the hills are rocky, and there is scrub brush that litters the sand. in the foreground is a silhouette of two women on the precipice of kissing. they're going to kiss. they've already kissed. it's already happened; it's happening now.

above them in the sky in looping letters is the title 'to speak, perchance to dream: a sapphic reylo fic by emsdispatch'

It must be the night, it must be the shelter of the desert, it must be the whir of cicada's wings that to some might be a nuisance but to Rey have become a comfort, the sound of a chosen home in a chosen valley in a sweltering summer in a place with friends who love her dearly.

It must be the beat of the bodies of the little cicadas that have lulled her into this daze, it must be the aphrodisiac of the tetelas Brenha fed her by hand and the aching sweetness of a woman who will sign with her as she uncovers her body to be devoured—

but Rey's heart aches, and she thinks for a dizzying moment that this might be the closest she's ever come to first sight, wild-wolf-sanctuary-puppy-dog love.

backlit image of Rey looking down at Kylo with their faces barely an inch apart, both of them in silhouette

still.

Rey shoves her own fingers, sticky with his spend, into the prisoner’s mouth.

“Suck,” she orders. “Clean up the mess you made.”

The captured knight’s big brown eyes hold hers as plush lips seal around her fingers; when she pulls her digits out of the wet heat of his mouth, he leans forward to lick an errant drop from her wrist.

“Good boy,” she murmurs. “If you don’t have anything to say tomorrow, maybe we’ll put that mouth to better use, hmm?”

If Rey had just listened to Ben, he wouldn’t have to do this.

Ben makes an AI chatbot version of Rey. Real Rey finds out.

NEW #reylofic for @reyloffanth.bsky.social's flash fic challenge

M | complete | 2k

spare

🖤 enemies to lovers, featuring:
🤍 the dubious comfort of blaming ptsd on bad necromancy
🤍 Kylo Ben and his refusal to sing communal village songs

moodboard with an image of Rey holding Ben's face, both of them dirty and bloodied. the title, spare, is in capital letters at the bottom, above the words by peculiar galaxies and r f f a flash fic 2025. at the top is a small graphic of three heart shapes, one a solid teal color and the other two washed out and faint.

She’s cradling his head in her lap and tracing the line of her scar, the one she left him with in that snow-shrouded forest.

He reaches up a hand and lays it over hers, holding her warm, dry palm against his clammy skin, right where her sunlight once branded his flesh.

“It’s the only one that doesn’t hurt,” he tells her.

Kylo died twice during the war. The Light's greatest hero spared him once. Now she's here, ten months into his exile, somehow both muddier and more radiant than in his dreams.

I also immersed myself in the new chapter of @emsdispatch.bsky.social's sapphic reylo, "to speak, perchance to dream."

the sexual, emotional, and dare I say spiritual tension between Rey, Brenha, and the desert itself here is STUNNING. #reyloww

i absolutely agree with her on this. TLJ was incredibly well received the first 48 hours and then the youtubers attacked and the whole narrative around the film changed so quickly

Tim Owens @attimowens.bsky.social · 6d

Bleak assessment by Leslye. In short: reaction/analysis content creators can shape or even eclipse how a project's received, and studios give that ecosystem unjust weight.

She's too kind here to this lucrative form of cultural vivisection, but recognizing it is a first step to fighting it.
