Oh my god, I have finally published something, over a year since my last work went up on AO3. The downside is, it’s Kylux in The Force Awakens fandom, and I don’t know how many of you are here for that. Those who are may be interested in:
Hux has a routine while on shore leave: find an auction house and buy a pleasure slave to keep him entertained for the week.
This year’s acquisition looks to be more expensive than usual, and Hux won’t commit to a purchase like that without being sure the merchandise is worth it.
A sample of the man’s skills is in order.
Featuring General Hux thinking he’s in control here until he totally isn’t, and slave!Kylo who’s far too enthusiastic about selling himself to the highest bidder, so long as the highest bidder is a redhead who low-key wants to conquer the galaxy.
So the kylux fandom has grown a whole lot recently. I have no idea where you’re all coming from, but welcome! You’re in luck! Our art is great, our fic is wonderful and we’re a really nice bunch behind the gore, I promise.
I’ve been lurking about around here since pretty much the beginning so in light of that I’ve attempted to put together a kind of short master post of cool stuff to check out to get you started out in our little trash pile of lovely weirdness.
This is by no means an exhaustive list, but listing everybody would be impossible. If I’ve missed off someone it’s not on purpose. You’re all so talented. I’m gonna make a separate list just for fics, but without further ado let’s go.
Much like this entire fandom, this post is NSFW.
General Great Blogs to Follow (they’re also amazing content creators and lovely humans)
Notable Fandom Phenomenons (that you may be confused about)
Children, Wake Up by @hollyhark. The biggest fic series in the fandom. Beautiful, long, heartbreaking and updated weekly. You can read it here
@reserve’s Witch AU. The greatest AU never to be written. All posts related to it can be found here
Kylo Ren’s Big Dick. Origins on this one are hard to trace but I suspect a combination of common sense, thirst, and Adam Driver’s general stature had a lot to do with it. A great example of fic is by @eralkfang and can be found here.
Honeycomb by @bettydays. The Daddy Kink fic to end all. Beautifully written and pretty much universally loved by the fandom. You can read it here
Emperor Hux. A logical extension of Hux’s role as General combined with the fandom’s need to force him into fancy regal outfits. A great example is by @that-vicious-vixen and can be found in all its glory here
Myspace AU by @horatiosroom. High school AU with scene kid Kylo and awful teen psychopath Hux who has a thing for vivisection. This started as one piece of art and morphed into this incredible collaborative thing that just keeps on going and it is glorious. Content related to it can be found here (warning for gore and questionable morals)
Matt the Radar Technician. The origin of Matt is the SNL sketch Adam Driver did, which is here. Fandom did what fandom does best and immediately wrote as much fic as possible. Notable examples include ordr by @brawlite and Who Did You Think I Was? by @ladyshivs
Blue Milkshake/Pink Haired Hux by @nightsofllyn. Pink Haired Hux began as a character in a dream sequence in this fic, and then evolved into a huge thing when this fic was posted with the help of some pretty rad art by @space-emos. The rest is history.
Slave Kylo. Slave Kylo was born from the desire to see Adam Driver in that slave outfit. Notable example art can be found here. Notable fic can be found here by @chickadddddd
Kylo Amidala AU. The origins are difficult to pin down but notable contributions have been made by the lovely art by @robespierrre. Do you like Kylo Ren? Do you like pretty dresses? What are you waiting for?
Millicent. Millicent is a bit like the Marmite of the fandom. You either love her or hate her. She was created from a tweet by Pablo Hidalgo that pondered on the possibility of Hux owning a cat called Millicent. It was intended as a joke but fandom ran with it. A good fic as an example is by @huxology and can be found here
Lingerie Hux. Fuelled by desire we all have deep within us to see pretty boys in expensive lingerie. Some great art can be found here by @pidgy-draws and here by @letmeputitinyourbutt. A notable example in fic is Indulgence which can be found here. (Edit also @the-pudding-is-a-lie also has really rad art relevant to this here)
The Knights of Ren and the Trippy Space Orgy of Dreams by @kdazrael. Involves ritual sex. It’s really quite difficult to explain and is best experienced for yourself
Middle Class Family AU by @jo2oo. Deliciously fucked up AU in which Hux kidnaps Kylo and forces him to live as his wife in a super creepy version of the suburban nuclear family. Bonus points for kidnapped evil children too. You can find posts related to it here.
Spoiled Prince AU by @mythoughtcrime. Kylo is a spoiled asshole who has a habit of seducing his bodyguards. Enter Hux. Find it here.
All I can think about is that interview with Domnhall Gleeson where he’s talking about this viciousness that General Hux has and how he’d fight dirty if put to it. But his entire appearance and demeanor in the film is so immaculately put together, that you can barely picture him getting his hands dirty. And then you have those couple of lines in movie novelization where Hux demands biological proof of the traitors’ demise, preferably a couple of heads on his desk. And how it unnerves the people following his orders.
Just imagine, if you will, Ren encountering this viciousness but not quite expecting it. At first thinking its for show or posturing, but then realizing Hux is cut from a very similar cloth to himself, loathe as he is to admit it. (Though Ren’s deal is more pure rage.) Imagine him being impressed, because he never thought Hux had it in him.
I love the idea of this kind of proper, militaristic man whose bloodlust is bursting the seams of that perfectly pressed uniform.
Imagine Ren being all too happy to indulge his call for ‘biological proof.’ I can just see Ren collecting the heads of their enemies, and dropping them on Hux’s desk like a cat leaving a particularly gruesome gift. And Hux, rather than being pissed that there’s semi-charred flesh all over his paperwork, is impressed. (Though he’d rather chew his own hands off than admit it.)
Since they’re not nice people, I kind of like the idea of their relationship being based on this mutual ferocity and viciousness.
I also like to imagine that Hux had a few ‘incidents’ in his rise to power, being underestimated by people vying for the same position and them sincerely regretting it. I’m picturing a kind of Hannibal Lecter quality in him.
(Also Domnhall Gleeson just suits being covered in blood, its a good look for him.)
