Oh, hooray! Always nice to make an astute observation.
Rough to be the son of two great leaders, and also the nephew of a great leader, and the grandson of... well okay I'm not sure Vader was exactly a leader... always second-string to Palpatine, actually? But I think maybe Kylo thinks Vader was a leader, which may be contributing to his general feeling that he has to be a leader and also confusion about what leadership actually is.
If Kylo ever came to terms with his essential follower-ness, do you think he might achieve some level of psychological peace, or would he simply crumble into dust?
