CAN’T BELIEVE BEN ‘OLD SOUL IN A YOUNG BODY’ SOLO IS CANON

It’s been canon. In the TFA junior novelization, when he takes off his mask it says, “He had a young man’s face, with an old man’s eyes.” I’ve always loved that description.

true, but somehow, having it highlighted in a toddler gives it more weight.

yes exactly! I love that quote from the junior novelization, but him having ancient eyes is less surprising when he’s 29, been suffering with Snoke in his head his whole life, let down by his family, still thinks his uncle tried to kill him, and looks like ‘a student who takes no joy in his studies.’ the fact that, even as a tiny innocent 2-year-old with no life experience he still has that quality about him makes it feel like more of an innate thing than a life experience thing, which is both a fascinating characterization and one I’ve always headcanoned, so getting it affirmed like this is lovely.
