If you don't want me to come, I can wait in my bunk.
Exactly. Better odds than most of the other stuff we manage to pull off around here.
Let me know when you're in position.
[ there really is something about this whole plan that screams "a rey and finn production". everyone in star wars is a little bit dumb. poe keeps hoarding the brain cells to convince himself he'd be breaking up a couple if he made a move on either of them, probably. ]
I CAN'T DECIDE HOW MUCH REY SKYWALKER WANTS TO USE CAPITAL LETTERS AND IT IS STRESSING ME OUT.
[ it is, dear reader, absurdly easy to convince poe to come aboard the millennium falcon. despite the lack of low-cut v-neck shirts in the resistance wardrobe department, finn manages to convince a pilot onboard by simply asking if he wants to come check out some new parts, and by idly chatting about poe's current workout regimen, the two make enough noise to disguise rey's careful clambering into position.
what they don't suspect is how neither of them are adequately prepared for the element of surprise. what are they supposed to say? is there a code word? they did not plan this very well. ]
Is he still with you??? I can't see anything in this closet!
[ he will not. he is a dumb man with eyeballs, who would try to fight their way past finn with the good hair and rey with the ... admittedly also good hair. they are a triad of good hair people.
[ finn doesn't laugh, which in many ways makes him the real hero of this tale if you think about it.
you have to think about it really really hard and then lie to yourself about it being true. so like trying to say kylo is a good guy.
there really is so much good hair to go around, though.
if the general thumping of a person trying to muscle a closet door open within 2 minutes doesn't announce his arrival, here is a thing that officially will: ]
How many things can break on one ship--?
[ WHAT IF SHE SUFFOCATES no she won't suffocate, he knows she will not suffocate, he is growing beyond worst-case scenarios. why is the falcon Like This, is the real question of the skywalker saga. ]
[ the force ghost of han solo says everything on the falcon is in perfect condition, fuck you very much.
rey just groans, because that is the furthest thing from the truth. and also because even finn's obnoxiously muscled arms are doing nothing to get this door open. she really does not want to force shove her way out (because that will probably break said door completely) but she's beginning to see a distinct lack of alternatives. ]
Get him to help you. [ the surprise factor is totally blown. they are so stupid. ]

I'm starting to think you just want to tie him up. Where's he gonna run to?

[ to... kidnap poe dameron. this is a Good Plan. ]
she is a desert gremlin who does whatever she feels like doing and i love her
I'd say good luck, but I think this is gonna turn out okay.

Why would I make you stay in the closet if he left?
Look, if you give it... another minute and a half, we can block him into the cockpit. Easy. It's not like he'll try to fight his way out.
