  Summary

  This fic was brought to you by an amazing post in Reylo Fic Recs (FB) that made my writing juices flow

  Special thanks to Deborah for the prompt, Shulene for the quote and my beautiful road testers Em and Liv. I hope I did it justice 💜💜

  Prompt 1: Shortly after the battle of Exegol Rey returns to the Resistance with her new friend Matt, The Radar Technician, who she says she "rescued along the way". Matt is defecting from the First Order because they were really mean to him.

  Prompt 2: "Matt you have, erhm, a few dark curls coming loose from beneath your blond hair..." ("please don't force choke the messenger!")
