No.

I am not conflicted.

I know my path and I will remain steadfast to it.

I will not stray.

[His tense body language may say otherwise.]

Comments

[forcepiloting]

I remember.

I felt the conflict in you.

[renkylo]

Past tense. Now I know which way I must go.

[breakthecycle]

Will you, really? Because from where I'm standing it looks like there might be some wavering.

[renkylo]

Then you are standing in the wrong position.

[breakthecycle]

No, I'm standing in the right position. You see, I've seen all of this [gesturing to Kylo in general] before. I know how it ends.

[renkylo]

Oh? And how do you think that this will end?

[breakthecycle]

The same way it did last time. And the time before that. And the time before that, and the... you know, I could go on like this for a while, you might want to get a seat. Maybe some coffee.

[bewareyourheart]

[Hoo boy. Your force presence feels like a bag of angry cats.]

You don't sound very convinced.

[renkylo]

I do not think that I have to justify myself to...

[His words trail off as he senses something, and he may be staring for a moment.]

[side_trips]

Words spoken aloud to not make them any truer.

[renkylo]

Here, the most I have are words.

[side_trips]

Is that what you believe?

[renkylo]

Yes. Will you tell me otherwise?

[whereibelonged]

Sometimes your path goes in a completely opposite direction than you expect it to.

[renkylo]

It already has and I am fighting to keep it that way.

[whereibelonged]

Maybe you should stop fighting and let the Force guide you.

[renkylo]

The Force.... The Light.... It calls to me but I cannot heed it. I must carry on.

[diplomaticsolutions]

Are you truly so certain that it is what you actually desire.

[renkylo]

... It is what I must do.

[diplomaticsolutions]

Yet what about what you should do?

[renkylo]

You will not cause me to turn from the path Darth Vader began.

[passingthrough]

Would that be the yellow brick road? The path less traveled? The straight and narrow? You're going to have to be more specific. And you'd probably be more believable if you weren't so defensive.

[renkylo]

I do not have to justify myself or prove anything to outsiders.

[passingthrough]

And yet you are the one making messages for us outsiders to hear.

[renkylo]

My mun is misguided in thinking I can be something I do not want to be...

I was not talking to you.
