And I don’t know if that is what he wants.” Rey nodded, a sharp dip of her chin. “I know that. I mean, rationally I know, but I guess I held out hope. “Hope is good,” Leia said, her voice gentle with understanding. “Hope is important, and sometimes it is all we have. But,” she said, smiling, “what does hope have to do with being rational?” She held out her hand and Rey leaned forward and took it, pressing her palm to Leia’s and squeezing.
