“… because Hux is still in his arms. Not a ghost. Overly warm and
twitching through more bad dreams. Hiding against Kylo’s chest, having
rolled over to clutch at him. Hux wakes slightly when Kylo runs his
fingers through his hair, but not enough to really know where he is or
what’s going on. Hux activates his conscious mind only to check that
Kylo is with him. That Kylo is the one disordering his hair, keeping him
warm”
Hux’s sleveless black undershirt alone survives Ren’s frantic clawing, but only barely, riding halfway up his stomach as he’s pinned back against the viewport, ass on display for the whole galaxy to see.
Their relationship is in its first tender minute, and while Hux is as giddy as the day he made general, Ren’s reaction has been to maul him, perhaps to discourage other potential mates from seeing Hux as anything other than badly damaged goods. Hux is making lots of noise, but he’s not complaining.
Then, just as Ren’s hand goes snaking up Hux’s shirt, no doubt to rip it off him (Rip it off me you bastard, Hux thinks at Ren, just in case), his fingers brush Hux’s nipple, and all the lovely too-hard grinding and lip sucking and growling nonsense promises of I’m going to make you beg until you don’t know what you’re begging for suddenly stop.
“My nipples are pierced,” Hux says, taking pity on him, “yes.”
“Why?” Ren wheezes. His dick, where it lays flush against Hux’s ass, couldn’t be any harder.
“Oh, I don’t know,” Hux says, wriggling against it impatiently, “I was young and drunk and on leave and I thought I was in love with someone. Why not?”
“And you still have them,” Ren pulls Hux’s shirt up further, exposing the silver rings, and stares.
“There they are,” Hux says, shifting where he’s pinned to see if he can’t reach Ren’s dick himself. He can’t–because Ren catches him at it, and traps that arm above Hux’s head while he looks his fill.
“I thought it was a rumor,” Ren says, in a daze.
“And I thought we were going to fuck,” Hux says, twisting his free hand in Ren’s hair to bring his gaze up. It works. Ren’s eyes narrow, and he crushes close again, all plush lips and sharp teeth.
“We are,” Ren says, pulling away even as Hux chases after him, teeth snapping at air, “We will. But–”
Hux huffs and bangs his head back against the viewport.
“I want to see something first,” Ren says, pinching the ring between his forefinger and thumb, “I just learned it.”
Which is all the warning Hux gets before the world turns an electric kind of blue and he’s zapped, unsuspecting and with a frightful yelp, into an orgasm he’ll never forget.
Short but sweet and FUCKING PERFECT. The voices, the characterization, the porn – hot damn this is good.
But seriously, imagine them as childhood friends, not lovers.
-The two growing up together and having dreams of seeing different planets together because Ben has obviously inherited his father’s piloting skills
-Ben eventually hanging out more with Uncle Luke because he wants to be a Jedi and Luke is touched and flattered so he begins to teach Ben.
-Hux and Ben gradually stop contacting each other, because now they have their own lives to deal with
-Hux developing a hatred for anyone carrying a lightsaber because he believed they took his best friend from him
-Snoke seduces Ben with Darth Vader’s helmet and persuades him to join the Dark Side
-Meanwhile Hux is being trained to be the perfect First Order Nazi and begins his work under Snoke (who is obviously a Sith and though Hux hates him he can’t disobey because orders are orders)
-So when they finally meet again Hux’s parents are dead and he’s the general of Starkiller Base; Ben is now Kylo Ren and he carries a lightsaber which immediately sets off warning bells in Hux’s head
-Hux doesn’t recognize Kylo because of his mask and Kylo barely recognizes Hux because his expression is set in a permanent scowl and the twinkle in his eye is gone
-So Hux spits out a scathing retort and Kylo retaliates because he’s hurt and controlled by the Dark Side
-When Hux gives the order to fire he feels a twinge of regret, remembering for a second that those were the same planets he wanted to travel to with Ben
-After Rey, Finn, Chewie and Han find their way onto the base, Hux just happens to stumble upon Kylo and Han talking like the son and father they’re supposed to be and figures it out
-Hux is a witness to Han’s death and to Chewie shooting Kylo in the side
-Hux enters some state of shock and is unable to stop Kylo from pursuing Rey and Finn
-Hux runs to Snoke because he feels like it’s the only thing he can do to help stop the destruction of both Starkiller Base and his best friend
-Snoke tells Hux to evacuate with Kylo Ren
-In an escape pod, Hux finds Kylo scarred and barely conscious in the snow, about to fall into a crack in the planet
-On the way to where Snoke is, Hux bandages up Kylo’s face, side and shoulder
-When Kylo wakes up he asks why Hux was doing this
-Hux spits out a retort about returning him to his Dark Master healthy and happy because of habit
-Kylo responds rather cruelly saying that Hux shouldn’t have and that Hux isn’t important in the grand scheme of things
-To which Hux sighs, turns around, looks him dead in the eye and says “Well then, I did it because I’m your friend and I never would have been able to live with myself if I left you for dead.“
-Kylo is stunned and ashamed that he ever doubted Hux, and later takes back everything he said to him, including the quip about the clone army. “Clones are boring, anyway. You wouldn’t have Captain Phasma if you had a clone army.“
-They chat for a while, catching up on the years they’ve missed out on
-Hux is more than a little concerned about Kylo’s unholy obsession with Darth Vader and out of nowhere calls him Ben
-He quickly goes to apologize but Kylo says “No…it’s fine.“
-And slowly but surely they become friends again. Sure, when there are people around they have to keep up appearances, but their friendship with never end
– being the only person each other trust and be open with is the start of their relationship.
-they are both attractive men loyal to each other soon attractions becomes an element
-a tentative kiss after one of them says no one loves then.
– This kiss leads to more as they slowly test what they like and dont.
-They are together, but after a near death experience they finally admit they care and want to stay together.
-boyfriends that have to be sneaky. Still act antagonistic in public so snoke dosn’t find out.
– They snipe at each other in public, but the sooth and comfort in private.
-this can’t laat forever. Snoke has to go!
– Snoke dies, he dies by Kylo’s hand.
– It’s like in the books they used to read, the ones where the heroes killed the villains, the books where they were the heroes and they had the world in the palm of their hand, the sun on their cheeks and mud staining their trousers as they ran.
– Here they are not the heroes of the story, but maybe they are something close.
– But… if this is a book, then here is the spoiler: Snoke’s death will be the end, but there must also be a beginning. There must be a quest, and a quest must be given: the village must be razed. Something must be lost.
– It’s fine, Hux tells him, eyes bright, the blood on his lips, the flecks of it speckled in the snow. There is a line he remembers, from a script that they had once played in green fields along a running brook: this is what friends do, right?
– His hand is pale and cold, slicked with red and slippery- but Kylo will hold on tighter, will clutch his friend to him trembling and gasp out the promises that will never be fulfilled.
– Except for one.
– The light will fade, the heaving chokes will subside. Over time, silence will fall, still and heavy.
– There will be an oath sworn, in the snow, made to a cold body and a cold heart, hours later when there is nothing left. It will be an oath kept.
– Here is the beginning: the quest is given: the village is razed, the friend has been taken. And in return, Kylo will conquer the universe to destroy it.
