"What, you think that's not all there is?!" He shouted without fully thinking it through.
There was some truth to such a dramatic statement. Ben clearly remembered his mother's reaction to the news of her father's identity getting out and how it started to topple her political career. Luke was nothing but a failure, and the Jedi perceived to be a myth in most parts of the galaxy simply because no one saw them active. And in the First Order, dammit, reputation is everything. What the Supreme Leader thinks of you determines if you live or die.
"I'm not Kylo Ren. I'm not Ben Solo. I don't know what I am and neither do you!!"
He stormed out, as volatile as ever, dragging his saber through part of the wall as he went.
