Toronto / Ontario Star Wars fans, would someone escort Ben around Fan Expo with me on Aug 29 and/or 30?

Dave F's comments were SO encouraging in a backwards way - let's bring Ben around again! March was so nice, really - we were treated respectfully and even with love like by this ROTJ Luke who RAN to us as we were leaving to ensure he got a photo!

If you're from out of town we can work out sharing a hotel room. If you don't have cosplay I can buy you a Where's Ben Solo? T-shirt if we make this decision asap (shipping takes time): https://www.etsy.com/ca/listing/4462540352/wheres-ben-solo-missing-poster-tee-rey?ref=share\_v4\_lx

I just can't wrangle him AND get photos alone.

Interested in showing Ben around Ottawa Comicon with me Sept 11-13? DM me (here's IG in case Reddit won't work): https://www.instagram.com/jendaviesgenxnerd?igsh=MWJyMzVxcWR2Nml5eA==

Cosplay not required, but a SW shirt would make sense.

Folks in Northeast USA and of course from Eastern Canada: Come have an adventure in Toronto Aug 27-29 for Fan Expo Canada! https://fanexpohq.com/fanexpocanada/

I have bribed my spouse with the promise of a Darth Revan costume if he comes and helps introduce Ben, and he's actually a lot of fun (high school teacher - so we have to leave Aug 30). Cosplay not required (we can get you a Missing Poster shirt if you don't have SW shirts).

I need 1 or 2 more people because I know from my experience with @purplebluestocking that it would be better to have someone always on a break (food, washroom, see the sights - guests from LOTR, Starship Troopers and The Goonies movies, and lots of really talented voice actors). And it makes hotel room cost-sharing better too, to make it more financially reasonable! I can share whatever you want to know about me IRL to feel safer sharing a hotel room (and if we go with the one Purple and I stayed it, there were separate bedrooms and locking bedroom doors). Here are the highlights from March: https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/18087201298984879/

Aug 27-30. Fan Expo Canada (Toronto). Who might like to bring Ben with me? My last collaborator (Leia, left, from Comicon in March) can't make it. A little cosplay or SW themed tshirts would be appropriate for us to wear, hence planning for it now. :) DM me and we will figure out the logistics (or if there are several of us we can do more than just this!). Apparently Reddit DMs don't always work but I'm easy to find on IG and BSky.

Adam’s revelatory “The Hunt for Ben Solo” interview was published by AP in October 2025. Since November I have begun to make videos on YouTube in support of Adam Driver’s interrupted Ben Solo film. Many people (like me, and apparently him) also are not “done” with Ben Solo.

I will almost certainly never be in a position to interview Adam Driver, but I thought it would be fun to make a video proposing one. The worst thing that can happen is nothing, and I have a lot of fun making videos.

All questions are welcome. When I write the video I will keep in mind that Adam is a real person and I will lean toward selecting questions that are kind rather than critical, curious rather than cutting, and reflective rather than ridiculous. 

I will collect question suggestions through Monday May 12 (in the forum or in this doc): https://docs.google.com/document/d/1egTtuDWclZfxgy8MJzR8MSVtVgyH6U9KdP6vI3K96Ec/edit?usp=sharing

Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
