    Summary

    “Did you know that I did not even learn your name until yesterday, when I married you?”

    His face flushed a darker red than it had at breakfast, and he attempted to defend himself with incompetent stammering, “I—I regret that. The situation, of course, would have been,” he wrung his hands together and stared at her feet, “It would have been preferable if we had known one another more. On several occasions, I did attempt to make myself known to you, but you seemed to have other preoccupations.”

    Rey could feel her face contorting into a sneer to spit out her barbed words, “Perhaps that was your cue not to marry me!”

    Or: Ben falls in love at first insult.

    Summary

    Rey doesn't say anything, not to Finn or Poe. Not even to Leia and Luke's Force ghosts, who smile their name down on her in blessing. That she carried their dead boy back with her, in her -- she wasn't aware. He sleeps like a seed of himself, burrowed in her, pillowed in the warm and dark.

    Until one day he wakes up.

    Summary

    He doesn't know if what he's doing will work. But he remembers how it felt; her adrenaline diffusing into warmth, rage overtaken by some strange tenderness.

    The crashing waves drenching them down to the bone. The burn closing upon itself, muscle and skin regrown whole, unblemished.

    The will to live bleeding out of him, into her. He is no Jedi; the energy courses into her first like lightning and he trembles, breathes until he is sure he is serene, not insistent but deliberate.

    The second is that she is even waking up at all.
