Had to go find it and save it for myself, I kept seeing in on Twitter, but it's not the same...

And re. Finn & Rey, I see them very much as BFFs. I'm quite happy to ship Finn/Rose romantically and Finn/Rey as Best Friends. Or you know, Finn with Poe or whatever. I'm easy! :D

Same here. I'm so very easy. :)
