#Finn's relationship with Rey

[balletbby]

maybe it's a blessing in disguise, i see my reflection in your eyes.

[zaddymaul]

no one ever:

me: fuck this im going to rewrite star wars

[the-quasar-hero]

I haven’t said it in such terms before but; reylo shippers were smoking dick for all that shit. Y’all were on here displaying behavior that would’ve gotten you a swift lobotomy in the 50’s. Brain chemistry altering trauma aside, the two of them could not have been more incompatible. I don’t even care that the movies made them do that in the end cuz the directors were smoking dick right with y’all.

spot the difference

[akallus]

i think finn and poe are endgame canon because how do you read resistance reborn (canon novel set after tlj) and ignore everything in it?

[greenfleeze]

Finnrey trumps reylo everyday of the week.

reading through the tags of that worst white boy ship poll and i really don't understand why some people are pretending that stormpilot wasn't incredibly popular at the time. yes, kylux outgrew them after a while, but finnpoe was the it ship after tfa and was liked and talked about in casual circles too.

[mixelation]

there's a secret good sequel series that lives only in brain where finn and rey are force-sensitive foils to each other and they still spend movie #2 entirely apart but it's because they're exploring parallel and at time opposite relationships with the force and their place in the universe

and in my secret good version. okay hear me out. the han-leia kid is a hot lady. okay. are we following. and she DOES abandon luke's new jedi, not by falling and murdering people, but by stealing the millennium falcon and running off to escape responsibility and swaggers around with incredible han solo "loser pretending to be cool" energy. and then. she accidentally picks up two force sensitive teens on jakku and she's like. are you KIDDING me

[clarasghosts]

it's still wild to me that rian johnson created a thoughtful film about who really profits from the wars in star wars, how you need to care about things bigger than just yourself and your friends, how you should be patient and listen, that you don't have to come from a 'special' family to really be someone, that the worst person you know isn't a theatrically large monster but a normal guy full of too much self-importance,

and people still act like he made a terrible film because it didn't cater to them, specifically

[antianakin]

i saw that you put finnrey as your “most potential” ship and i was just wondering what makes you see them as more romantic over a platonic relationship? especially considering the finnpoe presence lol

and to be clear, definitely not judging you or saying everyone has to prefer finnpoe, i just haven’t seen very many people talk about finnrey as a romantic pair, or at least i haven’t interacted with it, so i’m curious for your take :)

I'm going to start this with a disclaimer: I do not dislike Finnpoe at all, I actually quite enjoy Finnpoe as a ship, I think that Finn and Poe's dynamic in the movies is (mostly) enjoyable, and I do think there is an obvious foundation for the interpretation of them as romantic based on what we see in the films.

Finnrey are pretty obviously set up as a future romantic couple in TFA, to the point that the person who wrote the novelization has said that that is how he wrote them because it seemed REALLY REALLY OBVIOUS that that's where they were going with that relationship with what he had seen of it and he was pretty surprised when future films didn't follow up on that. There is arguably more explicit set-up for Finnrey in the first film of their trilogy than there was for Han/Leia (and also Luke/Leia since their sibling relationship wasn't established yet when ANH came out) and even for Anidala in their respective first films together.

It's Rey that Finn goes back for, fulfilling a place in her life that she's been waiting on for literal years, becoming the first person Rey feels like she can trust. Finn gets jealous when he thinks that Rey is going back to a boyfriend on Jakku. There's an entire running gag that is about the two of them holding hands, something usually pretty connected to romantic couples. Finn only joins the Rebellion because he cares enough about Rey to want to go back to save her (and he also answers his call of destiny by doing so, as visualized by him being given and then using Anakin's lightsaber as part of that decision). Rey answers her own call to destiny when she calls Anakin's lightsaber to her, something she only does in order to save Finn after Kylo has injured him. The two of them impact each other's storylines in a way that NO ONE ELSE DOES.

I also personally feel like Finn and Rey were originally built as CO-LEADS in TFA, neither one was supposed to be "the main character" over the other. They were BOTH intended to be Force sensitive, BOTH intended to become Jedi, BOTH intended to be the awakening in the Force. Their connection was the whole heart of the story in TFA. Allowing them to be love interests for each other just helps cement that. Finnrey being allowed to remain love interests throughout the Sequel trilogy could've helped keep Finn from being sidelined, it could've helped keep REY from being sidelined, it could've allowed Kylo Ren to remain a villain, it could've helped keep some of the more interesting themes of TFA from being completely and utterly dropped.

By comparison, Poe was supposed to die in TFA. He and Finn share maybe 2-3 scenes total with each other, which are split up between the very beginning and the end of the second act of the film, leaving a LOT of time in-between where neither we as the audience nor Finn in universe even SEE Poe (and he mostly disappears when the third act on Starkiller Base starts up, too). Giving Finn a love interest that isn't Rey also opens the door for him to be sidelined in favor of Rey. This is something we can actually see done intentionally in TLJ with Finn and Rose. It pulls focus from what was set up as the focal point and heart of the narrative in TFA (Finn and Rey's relationship) and provides an excuse for why Finn isn't taking part in the bigger storylines with Rey.

And last but not least, I don't personally believe that there was ever a snowball's chance in hell that Finn and Poe were ever going to become an canon couple in a Disney Star Wars movie (it wouldn't have happened in a Lucas-run Sequel Trilogy either, but that's not really the point here). Finnrey could've. You can even argue that it SHOULD'VE happened and that it WOULD'VE happened (if Rian Johnson hadn't come in and decided to ignore everything that was set up in TFA). And Finnrey theoretically still HAS a shot at being made canon. It seems a LOT more likely that if they continue to explore the characters in the future that we'll see Finn and Rey get together romantically than that we would see Finn and Poe get together romantically.

So while I like Finn and Poe, I don't feel like there was real potential that actually got squandered in the films when they didn't happen, whereas there was ACRES of potential for Finn and Rey that got completely thrown away, and doing so really hurt both of their characters and the trilogy as a whole.

"Come on, no one will catch us," she giggled and pulled Finn's wrist so he would come closer. He rolled his eyes yet followed her. Trapped between Finn and the elevator wall, she wrapped her arms around his neck. His lips locked on hers. An innocent kiss turned into a full make-out session.

He wrapped one of her legs around his waist. "Careful, darling, I'll jam this elevator and take you right here, right now,"

"That won't be happening,"

It wasn't until she heard her father, Rey Mysterio, talking to them that they realized the elevator had already stopped at another floor. Dominik tried his hardest to keep from rolling on the floor laughing. Always the perfect princess, he never thought he'd see the day that his sister would get busted.

Her hall of famer dad successfully advocated for her to be moved from RAW to Smackdown. He wanted her to work on her career before being with some other wrestler. Y/N and Finn ended up breaking up. She resented her dad for getting involved in her dating life.

A few weeks later, Y/N started making appearances on RAW. Liv Morgan wouldn't leave her family and friends alone. The attacks back and forth on each other were brutal, but they didn't go unnoticed. Her dad spoke to Adam Pearce, and they came to an agreement.

A stipulation match between Liv and Y/N to settle things once and for all. A victory by Y/N meant Liv must leave Dom and Judgment Day alone. A victory by Liv meant she was an honorary member in Judgment Day. The stakes were high, and the match was vicious. In the end, Liv agreed to leave her little brother and friends alone.

Liv was about to attack Y/N from behind when Rhea's entrance theme music played through the arena. Liv ran towards the other side of the arena. Y/N used the distraction to roll out of the ring. Her right arm was pulled close to her body.

Rey helped his daughter backstage. From the corner of her eye, she saw Finn. His eyes filled with worry. Despite being back on RAW, they still kept their distance. Rey was always watching over her.

Her dad drove her to the hospital. The x-rays confirmed a broken arm while another test proved she had a concussion. The doctors ordered that Y/N stay overnight for testing.

"Finn is asking if he can come see me," Y/N mentioned.

Her dad tensed. "I don't think that's a good idea,"

"Why not? Dad, I love him, and I'm pretty sure he still loves me," she argued.

"You are still young," he scoffed. "You don't know what you want,"

"Dom is already married. You mean he knows what he wants, but I'm too stupid?" Y/N asked.

"That's not what I meant at all. Don't put words in my mouth," he answered.

"Then what is it? I'm your daughter, so Dom can do whatever he wants, but I'll die alone?"

The room fell silent. Her dad was thinking of the next words to say. Rey didn't want to lose her, but this behavior wouldn't get her to stay. "You are just still my little girl in my eyes. My first born. When I held you in my arms, I felt a love I didn't know existed. When I saw you with him, I just went crazy,"

"Dad," she sighed. Her dad was always more on the emotional side. Guilt started to eat at her.

"You've had other boyfriends, but I have seen the way he looks at you. He loves you. This is serious," he pointed out. "I'm sorry for keeping you two apart. Invite him over. I won't stop your relationship any further,"

Finn showed up twenty minutes later. He stopped at the door when he saw Rey. His eyes darted to Y/N in fear. He didn't want to cause any drama.

"It's fine, Finn," she smiled briefly. "He gives us his blessing,"

Rey stood up from his chair. He looked up at Finn. "You take care of my little girl, or I'll take care of you,"

Finn nodded profusely. Rey walked to his daughter and gave her a hug and kiss. He wished her well. The proud father shot Finn one last glare before leaving.

"Well, that was something," Finn chuckled nervously.

Y/N giggled. "I thought he was going to 619 you out of the window,"

Finn smiled and sat on the edge of the bed. He grabbed her good arm and kissed the top of her hand. "You almost look like a real wrestler now,"

"Stick around, and I can teach you a thing or two," Y/N teased.

"Mmm, one of us has a championship belt and no injuries," Finn pointed out and tapped her nose.

"I missed you," Y/N giggled. Finn told her he missed her as well. Her ex leaned in and kissed her.

"Be my girlfriend again. You are all I think about," he confessed. She smiled and nodded. "Great, now move over. You aren't the only one who wrestled tonight. I'm tired too,"

The night was spent with them cuddling in the hospital bed. Her head rested on his chest and shoulder. He drew lines with his finger on her back and arm. Everything felt like it had fallen back into place.

REY SKYWALKER, FINN, and POE DAMERON from STAR WARS

Justification:

"Listen. LISTEN. Rey and Finn clearly love each other dearly (even if you don't ship them you can't deny their bond), Finn and Poe are super cute, and Rey and Poe have a sweet moment in the comics where they bond over their shared trauma. These three could be THEE power throuple I just know it, they'd be phenomenal together, also Rey having two boyfriends who stand by her and help her build herself up is a lot more impactful than Rey kissing the guy who keeps killing her parental figures I'm just saying. Also Finn deserves all the love and care, deserves to be treasured and cherished after everything he's been through. Also Poe needs all the support he can get and to be taken care of after it all and I think he'd be so happy with them." - @ivywing

"Clearly, Rey and Poe were both in love with Finn, and Finn loved them both back 🥺 maybe Rey wouldn't have fallen for Kylo if she had experienced a loving, stable relationship" - @fangsup-cobrastyle

Review : 💜💜💜💜💜

I’ve been in the Reylo fandom for a while now since the force awakens i’ve been here and never have I encountered a Reylo fic ( apart from love hypothesis if you know you know ) in which I liked the characterization of both Kylo and Rey so much. I love the relationship. I love how the writer embraces the fashion world in this AU . But I especially love their relationship how it can be very hot and smutty ( which I would put in the tags ), but I love the fluff and the angst is on another level so might be my favourite Reylo fanfic yet !

@aquawolfgirl your work is amazing !!

[miss-kuki-nz]

Damn sooo much drama within the world of gay wrestling on RAW 😁.

Seth and Bronson were spicing up their relationship by taking things to the parking lot and ending their night in a load of rubbish.

Sheamus said screw you Butch, I'll have Ludwig instead

Finn was clearly jealous that Dominik got to be with his (Finn's) ex husband instead of him

The Miz realized he fucked up and tried to make amends with his hubby R-Truth, but Truth wasn't taking his bullshit

Sami was caught talking to his boyfriend's brother in the parking lot

Ivy is trying to move on from Maxxine by going after Zelina.

Rhea is now trying to make Liv jealous by bringing up Raquel more and more

Hmmm what else??

Oh yeah, Karrion isn't letting Miz go just yet, he said uh uh boo, I'll break your leg if you try anything.

Looks like both Xavier and Chad wanted a piece of Rey Mysterio, more Xavier than Chad

Once again JD tried to get his hands on Damian for whatever reason. Like calm tf down J, you have Finn already

Damian was sending a message to Finn by manhandling Dominik and showing (Finn) what he was missing out on.

Aaaaand that's everything you missed on Monday Night Raw x
