He’d been mid wondering what was the best way to taunt a Hutt into a duel to the death - something that sounded extremely appetizing right now - when Finn’s voice caught him up short.
His heart thudded painfully in his chest, something like hope mixing in with the deep heart break, but he purposely chastised himself for feeling any hope at all. He hovered in the doorway, his back to them and his mind working rapidly.
Go to him, she said, but that didn’t sound right either. Could she seriously not see that she was the hinge of this? That she was the whole point, and he was getting thrown table scraps that he desperately, desperately wanted. He turned around, confusion and wariness on his face but also that undeniable spark of desperate hope in his chest.
So he just stood there, dumbly, a pillar next to Rey and staring openly back at Finn.
It was rare that Poe Dameron was rendered speechless, but... well, here they were.
