video; forward dated to 3/28

[ apparently the star wars kids don't know how to hold onto their devices quite well. but unlike rey, paige drops her device and it turns on once it hits the ground. the camera is crooked but you can see her come in and out of frame, wearing her rebel-issued blue cobalt squadron jumpsuit, soaked to the bone.

she isn't pacing or running, she's dancing. or rather, twirling in the rain. one hand clutches something hanging around her neck, a necklace as she simply laughs and spins in the rain, free arm spread out.

eventually, her smile fades into something more solemn, sad and she sort of just... plops onto the ground, her expression turning pained. her hand tightens its grip on her necklace.

she's not crying now. it's just raining on her face. and as the video finally times out, she buries her face in her hands.]

Technology. More advanced than these devices. That's how it's possible. It was a giant weapon. [ And it murdered countless people.] The Rebellion destroyed it. The people who are responsible for destroying it are here. But so are the people who were responsible for building it, captaining it.

[ What he says next has her straightening up, there's a strike of fear in her heart.] Is that a figure of speech? 'Walking dead men'? Looking like they are made of ice? How is that possible? [ Not even zombies are a thing where she is from.] Not even the Force can bring dead men back. [ As far as she knows.]
