Reconciling Kyp

He would be an angry young man despite his return to the light. After all he had much to be angry about and anger was human. The Jedi ideal of not being angry would never be an easy edict to swallow. Anger was born to him from age 8 when any illusion of safety was taken. After his parents’ deaths and the hopelessness of Kessel what could possibly allow the boy to continue living? Someone had to have helped him or surely he would have died or been raped. The plausibility of someone taking him into their care and protection is worthwhile. Someone should have given him shelter and guidance.
Flash forward, Han shows up and rescues the boy. Kyp must have felt enormous relief only to have that dashed away in Daala’s prison. Facing execution, Kyp also must confront the reality that he is not invincible. There is also anger in himself because he can not access the force yet and save himself. He must feel like a child who can not protect himself. Vulnerable. But Han comes through again and for a few months Kyp only knows a happy life. This had to be emotionally overwhelming. He had not know carefree freedom in 8 years! And here is where Han and Luke dropped the ball! They needed to get Kyp some serious counseling. Just because he could have some fun didn’t mean all his troubles had ended!
So Kyp goes to Yavin and gets Gantoris’ old room! Smart move Master Skywalker! It takes all of one week for Exar Kun to entice Kyp to the dark side. Why does no one treat Kyp like he is a teenager? They seem to know how to treat Jaina like one in NJO. Maybe they had to learn from their mistakes. I would assume that Luke and/or Han were legal guardians for Kyp. I’m making the 18 is legal in the SW universe jump here.
Kyp’s anger leads him to his self-righteous romp to destroy the empire. It isn’t all dark side when you step back to exam it. Okay so declaring yourself “Dark Lord of the Sith”…Darkside. Force lightening Luke…Darkside. Tearing away Qui Xux’s memories…Darkside. BUT! Attacking Daala’s fleet…rebellion…hello! The Empire was not yet done and the Rebellion should have would have put Daala down if they were paying any attention. Well Kyppie did save Coruscant, but who’s counting!
Han saves Kyp AGAIN! (I think we are up to 3 saves so far). Kyp spends a little time in the NR prison in Coruscant before facing a trial which I am sure he thought would lead him to his execution. (he faces that AGAIN)….Luke takes him back to Yavin with all his generosity that Luke is famous for, but forgets to get the boy counseling (AGAIN)….Do these men ever learn?????
Well at least Luke took him back in and helped him as a Jedi. So here we go into fan fiction because this boy would need more than Skywalker could give especially after his injuries in destroying the Suncrusher.
So Kyp gets all better and is made a Jedi Knight. He romps around the galaxy with Dorsk 81 trying to find something useful to do. Finally he comes across Imperials and starts trouble. He’s absolute impetuousness. But he’s a good boy. We see that he’s a tough kid who goes up against just about anything fearlessly, but we also realize that early on Luke let his Jedi find their own missions. We find out later that comes back to haunt Luke as he tries to consolidate everyone to one mind in fighting the Vong. We last see Kyp a little desperate trying to forgive himself and get on with life. He does of course. He’s a natural born survivor.
