Thinking about how Domhnall just recently said Hux is both desperate to be Snoke’s favorite and win his approval and also TERRIFIED of Snoke; just makes me think about how Hux still hasn’t broken out of his need for approval from a paternal figure, even at the expense of being abused. He’s more fixated on tearing down Kylo than tearing down Snoke, the one manipulating them both, because he’s so fixated on any scrap of validation he can get.
I’d give my whole salary to see a movie where Hux realizes that Snoke’s the reason why the First Order keeps fucking up. Remember the bit in the TFA novel, where Hux tries to argue for a more pragmatic approach (targeting the base on D’Qar instead of blowing up the whole fucking system), and Snoke just shuts him up? It would be fun to see Hux gradually become more and more aware of the fact that the Order’s interests might not be the Supreme Leader’s priority.
SAME!! I’m hoping the twist has Hux realizing how much better off he would be if Snoke were dead, he really needs to break the cycle of abuse because Snoke is basically fulfilling Brendol’s previous role.
