[When the video feed begins, there is a redhead frowning at the screen.]

As far as planets go, this isn't the worst place I've been to. Though I suppose this hardly counts as a planet.

[The frown deepens, and it's obvious that he is struggling to wrap his head around the fact that he has found himself here on a turtle and it's difficult to grasp.]

However, there are some deep-seated issues in this city that should be addressed. How do you expect to have any sort of progress when this place is so divided? There is strength in unity, which all of you seem to fail to see. Instead of competing with one another for power, wealth, and resources, it would be much more logical for all of you to fall in line. Some who have power and autonomy do not always deserve it, and are too feeble-minded for it. Should they cast their support in favour of those who are fit to lead, there will no longer be chaos.

If you're honest with yourself, you can admit that it's what's best for any society.

[ even if he does feel remorse, somewhere — although she doubts it, based on the reassertion of his calm, even-keeled expression — he won't ever likely admit it to her, and Rey knows this. still, she can't help but poke at the viper wasp's nest. ]

The way you feel after murdering that many people should be the most relevant. Not the least.

I called Ren a monster, for having murdered his own father. [ she chews her lip, almost thoughtfully. ]

I'm not sure exactly what I would call you.

I'm sure you'll find something fitting.

[he doesn't care about what she thinks. and his opinion of himself isn't influenced by what others think, particularly not an enemy.]

And I'm sure you'll learn sometime soon that people are not just pawns to play with, for 'strategic necessity', on your Dejarik board.

[ her smile is as bitter-tinged as she can manage. ] Perhaps I'll even be the lucky one to teach you such a lesson.
