Rey Solo

Unless there are reasons we don't know.

 

Like ?

What reason can explain these deep feelings so well hidden ?

 

Well, nah.

You're making up things and put trolling rating when we obviously debunk your thing.

I'm out of this. I only play fair games.

 

The enemy can read minds. That is the biggest. If you really want to protect the child of a high value target, keep her out danger long term. You 1- find someone you trust that the enemy doesn't think is close to you. Have them take the child but tell no one where. So if Han, Leia or those close to them have their minds read they have no worthwhile information. 2- You don't tell the child who she is. This sounds cruel but if a malevolent entity was stalking your first born from birth (a possibility) and they can read minds then her knowing who she is could endanger her later in life.

It doesn't answer who they chose to watch over her what went wrong on Jakku but it does explain why it is secret, why Han warms to her, why Leia hugs her, and most importantly why they don't have a reunion. Because the secret still protects Rey.

Granted Rey Solo at this point I think is a stretch but stranger things have happened.

 

Really ? When you had been raised like a princess, you give your child to ... Unkar Plutt and you just never come back whatever and this with all the guards you have as a senator or a resistance general ?

What kind of people do that ?

And they never got back to Jakku because the Falcon was there and Solo besides smuggling and swindling gangs was looking for the Falcon and definitely not for a long lost daughter.

I'm not trolling, I just say what is on screen.

 

I must not be writing clearly I apologize. I proposed the secrecy as protection to illustrate why they don't have a reunion.

I pointed out that doesn't explain what went wrong on Jakku. Meaning I was acknowledging that something beyond the information we have been given must have occurred. Any back story I give would be pure speculation. But why don't they have a reunion or act like they know her if their related because it is still intended to be a secret.

If you need possible senario: Wedge and his new wife Nora left the NR with the new Solo baby and went looking for a secret place to settle down. They get a visit from an old friend Jazz Imari who is in some trouble. Wedge and Norra are compelled under duress to go on some mission to save Jazz but they don't make it back. Rey grows up on Jakku after losing the only family she knows.

 

No parents lose a daughter and go for the chancellor job, no parents lose a daughter and went hunting for Raghtars, no parents lose a daughter a teach on a jedi academy while baby girl is alone on a desert planet.

That just doesn't exist even if fiction.

I don't think I'm the only one to think this is not normal behaviour.

And in your story, Solo and Leia are not Rey's parents they're her genitors not her family. A family isn't looking for a ship when they lost a child.

 

Personally, I think Rey is Luke's daughter. I don't think it defines her at all though. I think what will define her is she and Ben working together on bringing Balance of the Force to carry on their Grandfather's Legacy. I think the Skywalker name and where she comes from isn't at all what's important here. So, Reylo is true from a certain point of view. It's just not in the way many are expecting. She's the Light to Ben's Dark as they contrast the other in a similar way to Maul and Ezra in Rebels. They're a metaphor and more so the embodiments of The Ones, which started with Anakin, the Chosen One and passed on to his Daughter, Leia who serves as the Light and Son, Luke who serves as the Dark. A generation later the roles have been reversed in the offspring of the Daughter and Son where the Daughter had the Dark and the Son had the Light. Together ulimately they'll find the true meaning of Balance of the Force.

 

I am not sure this is worth talking about. I think Rey Solo is unlikely at this point. You seem set firmly against it which I understand. I tend to not rule possibilities out or in unless they are pretty firm. So this is at best as I have tried to suggest why they don't have the reunion you are talking about.

But you keep going back to why aren't they looking for her. Because they didn't know she was gone. They sent her away in secret and so they could never be mind read themselves don't know where the protectors they chose took her. Because if they knew where she was they might be captured and the secret would come out. So they assume their daughter is living far off happy and safe not knowing where. So Han isn't looking for her because he assumes she is safely hidden. Again that diesn't explain who they trusted her with or where they intended her to go but something went wrong and she ended up separated from the only family she remembers her guardians and is stranded in Jakku. It hangs on protecting Rey by keeping her secret. They hid her birth, they chose to have someone else raise her never to know her because they didn't want what they were starting to see going wrong with Ben to happen with their second child. But to truly keep it secret from enemies that can read minds Leia and Han couldn't know where she was going. So if the 1st Order captured they the information couldn't be taken from their heads.

Its convoluted and complex which is why I think its unlikely. Especially after Bloodline. I just rarely say never.

 

I believe that it is unlikely as well, but there's no harm in letting folks speculate as long as folks don't get heated.

 

That isn't completely impossible but its just speculation. Not that its poor speculation but the evidence is lacking. Also it is weird for it not to have come up in Bloodline. Way to much introspection by Leia to not touch on daughter that died prior to the events of the book. And while Han and Leia are pursuing other goals they are in regular contact, Leia spends time imagining how great leaving politics would be and joining Han on the racing circuit. When he rescues her there is no sign of distance or tragedy. So while I agree that they have had some tragedy it looks likely that tragedy occurred after Bloodline and I think it is safe to say the tragedy is Ben's fall after which they have a harder break, Han is back with Chewie and is no longer making a living on the racing circuit. Now I have a feeling that when they have the harder split they might acknowledge they had been drifting for years but they don't seem to have dealt with distance between them.

 

I'm not for it or against it, it just doesn't fit with the movie I saw.

I'm neutral.

 

Rey Solo isn't possible. Or rather, if it is the case then TFA was a farce.

No one recognises Rey - through the Force or her appearance (including age & circumstances).
Neither Han or Leia have searched for their daughter who, clearly, they can't have known was dead.
Maz Kanata tells Rey her family is never coming back when Han is just upstairs. Sure, Maz could be wrong - but seriously?
It has become apparent that not even Luke knows who Rey is.

 

If Rey is the biological daughter of Luke Hamill would never make the joke "I see my dau... I mean my collegue Daisy" (and it's clearly a joke, look the video) during the live panel of TLJ at the Celebration, sorry looks like Luke will never have biological children in the canon.
