[ Ben's picked off a few speeders and a couple of smaller ships when he deems it "cleared up" enough to re-join with the rest of this... really weird gathering of people.
He's just marching up as she repeats her demand of going back to Jakku and--
Really, who the hell wants to go back to Jakku?
He can't figure out who this girl is and it's Bothering him at this point. He wonders if this is how Qui Gon felt when he first met Anakin-- or any of the other countless Force sensitive youth who'd been dragged into their mess.
His lips press together, his jaw ticks. Maybe he should leave this alone. He hated the stories of children being taken away from their parents and homes just to continue on the tradition of a dying religion. Luke had spoken about how it was foolish to do so as well. There were enough people willing to learn, why kidnap a babe from it's mother?
But he can't deny what he saw, what he felt. Something had shifted when they made contact and-- that could mean something. Leaving her alone could prove foolish.
'Ben, you got something to say?' ]
I need to talk to Luke.
[ Han's One Concern about Rey wanting to stay on Jakku is turning into Two Concerns. Like, he's just got his ship back and suddenly he's dealing with Troubled Youths.
'Yeah, sure. Okay. Once we get into range.'
Chewbacca voices his own hesitations. Asking if it's 'too soon' and JESUS Ben is wondering how badly he'd fucked up if they are wondering if even Talking to Luke may be something that is "too soon".
Great continuing his permanent position of being the family screw up.
He'll just, tilt his head, regarding Rey from the corner of his eye. ]
What's your name?
[ Han scoffs. Loudly.
'Didn't you hear her the first time? It doesn't matter.' ]
