[As stoic as he intends to be towards his mother, he does internally appreciate the fact that she shares the same thoughts about it as he does. At least as far as he can sense. It's good enough for him.
One can always trust Leia Organa to judge people, after all.]
Two months at least.
[That's how long ago that memory was, in any case.]
I prefer not to know any more details about their relationship.
Honestly, this much information is already more than I ever wanted to know.
[And more than she ever wanted to see, as well. She isn't sure whether she would've believed Ben wasn't entirely exaggerating things if he had just told her what he saw, but part of her wishes he had done that instead, to spare her this mental image.]
I thought they would have more sense of propriety than this.
[Because clearly they were meant to be helping out and not making out, but well. She can see how that went.]
[Leia's preference has only occurred to him in the sense of what he wants to do in order to aggravate or upset her, unfortunately. Plus, this way he doesn't have to actually spend his energy trying to explain it.]
You expect too much. The Jedi have never done what's appropriate.
I can’t imagine being a Jedi has anything to do with this.
[well it’s more that she can’t imagine this being something the Jedi order would be okay with in the first place. She may not know too much in depth about the Jedi order, not beyond stories about the Jedi from Bail or what she’s been told by Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan here, but what she does know is that attachments weren’t something the Jedi looked favorably upon.]
[It's not as if she likes comparing Ben to Anakin. She doesn't want them to be alike in any way, as many similarities in how unpredictable and angry they could be there are.
But if Ben doesn't want those comparisons, Leia is happy to oblige. Not just because pf this (or because she generally thinks higher of Ben anyway), but also because, to her, any rejection of Anakin from Ben is a step in the right direction.]
It hasn't been something I've been bringing up in casual conversation.
[Mainly because he'd like to forget it. Hux knows, but it's not as if Leia would care about that in particular. Hux would be judging the Jedi even without knowing that piece of information, anyway.
But if Leia wants to spread it around, Kylo's not going to stop her. Let them reap whatever may come from this. (As if he isn't halfway attempting to keep his own relationship from the Enforcers as a whole...)]
[Leia nods, conceding Kylo's point. It's not something she would know how to bring up herself in the first place, really, but at least she knows now that she's not one of one or two people (because there's no way Han would have known and not told her) not aware of this.
...Though she isn't sure being one of a few who is feels any better.]
For the best. I don't know if there's any way to bring it up in conversation with anyone else.
[As nice as it is to judge someone as a family and all—Kylo has no plans to simply let his mother back in the house after forcibly tossing her outside. Despite the temporary distraction, he hasn't forgotten the realization that drove him to start actively pushing her away again.
It's for her own damn sake, but she's too stupid to see it.]

[No matter what generation it is, they're all fools and mess up something significant at some point.]
It's clear Anakin Skywalker intends to cling to it in the most abhorrent way possible, so don't compare me to him again.
