|| Hux

Hux frowned at his comm.

/Would you like some company?/ A.Hux

He was awake now, to concerned to fall back to sleep. Getting up, Hux padded across the room and dressed in his casual attire; a plain white tunic and black trousers. The likelyhood of him being able to rest with Ren wandering aimlessly across the ship was zero, and he missed Ren’s large hands and broad frame pressed against him while he slept. While waiting for Ren’s reply he made some caf in their kitchenette, going over some minor reports on his datapad. Working always helped him calm down when he was stressed; taking joy in completing small tasks to distract himself. His tasks were much different now as Emperor, and even being on the Finalizer was a treat. The planet that him and Ren usually resided on, the one with there Empire and throne, was lonely without Ren When the Knight was away. This time, however, a diplomatic mission required Hux, and Ren was his loyal body guard and Husband. Hux had no worries about meeting the senator of Yavix 5 with Ren around. Getting impatient, Hux sent another message:

/I’m awake now. I wouldn’t mind some company./ A.Hux

He’d done this. He’d made Hux wake up, he’d probably be up the rest of the night because of him. He’d be tired tomorrow, he’d be sleep deprived, it would be his fault. Kylo took a deep breath and let it out slowly. Maybe if he’d return to their quarters and act like everything was fine he’d go back to sleep. 

No, he couldn’t make himself do that. Hux probably wouldn’t go to sleep until he went to sleep. And he couldn’t go to sleep. Kylo picked up his comm, jumping a bit as it made the notification noise while it was in his hands. He glanced at the time signatures between the messages. Had he zoned out that long?

I’m coming to you. I should be there shortly. KR

He shoved his comm back in his pocket and hopped of the small ledge. It had been fine while it lasted. 

He marched back down the halls of the Finalizer, moving with purpose as he passed those who had the night shift. Even without his mask, they moved. He hadn’t worn it since he’d fought the Scavenger. It felt like decades ago, but it hadn’t been so long. Now he had another scar, but it crossed down the length of his back rather than on the front of his face. It was still red, still new in comparison, but he was assured it would fade just the same. 

He paused outside their door, trying to make himself look a bit more grounded before entering. “You know, its very late. You should be resting.”

My muse has been having the same nightmare for weeks now and it’s taking it’s toll. Send me “You look exhausted.” for my muse’s response.

My Muse has bruises and cuts they wont explain. Send 🎈to get them alone to talk.

|| Hux

Hux woke up slowly from his sleep, which was light to begin with. Feeling around the bed before finally opening his eyes, he gave a groan and sat up. Ren was still gone. His husband did not come to bed with him and even now, in the middle of the night, Ren was still awake somewhere on the ship. Hux was beginning to worry over Ren’s aloof behavior. Without the rush and whirlwind of planning and action of defeating Snoke and stopping the resistance, Hux was starting to notice oddities about Ren outside of their passion fulled courtship. Ren seemed…distant, unwilling to share his thoughts even though he looked troubled. Hux was at a loss of how to help or what was even wrong, if anything was wrong at all. He had known Ren for years, but those had been years at war. With everything settled he saw Ren in a different light, had time to analyze the Knights behavior. Even after becoming Emperor, to which Ren had pledged himself both as protector and Husband, Hux was still unsure of how to treat this newfound distance Ren was creating.

Deciding not to wait around any longer, Hux reached for his Comm on the side table and sent Ren a message:

/where are you?/-A.Hux

Kylo heard his comm’s notification noise go off and frowned. It was probably Hux, he’d noticed he’d been gone or he’d been awake all this time. Kylo closed his eyes, taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly. He was expecting anger, his body was tense, ready to accept whatever it was Hux had said to him. It was an unreasonable reaction and somewhere, Kylo knew that. 

He pulled out his comm, staring at the message. 

I’m sorry. I didn’t realize what time it was. KR

He refused to acknowledge that he was falling apart. The barer he’d built for himself was stronger than it had any right to be, and it pulled his broken bits in and kept them from falling completely. He’d defeated Snoke, he’d won. There was no reason for him to be feeling so empty. There shouldn’t a hole in his mind that Snoke had left, there shouldn’t be pain. He should have felt absolutely ecstatic. He’d done the impossible. There should have been some feeling of gratification. 

He glanced down at his comm, checking the time. He should have been in bed hours ago. If Hux had any sense he wouldn’t be waiting up when he’d got back. If he decided to actually return to bed that evening. He couldn’t get rid of the feeling of paranoia. It had been creeping in the back of his mind since the moment Snoke died. The what if. What if he came back? What if he wasn’t truly dead? What if there was something worse out there? What if his entire existence had been fabricated to Snoke’s every whim? The last one was new, but it felt likely. Well, all of it felt likely. 

He climbed onto the sill of one of the giant windows in the Finalizer. There were few rooms that had such grandiose appeal, his old quarters had been one. Their new shared one had them as well, but he couldn’t sit in there, Hux was in there. The closest ones had been in the banquet hall for entertaining foreign dignitaries. It was something they’d been doing a lot lately. He got himself comfortable on the ledge, staring off into space--both figuratively and literally. It was easier to let his mind get lost than deal with his problems, and at least when he did this there was a possibility for a nap.

Hey, I’ve been in a con crunch for the past I don’t even know how long. Its over now though, so I can start replying again. Sorry about that. I’ll get on tomorrow and work on responses.

Cold Starters

"Here, have my jacket"

"Do we have any more blankets?"

"I think I/you have frostbite"

"You're shivering"

"It's not that cold"

"Let's get a fire going"

"Just think warm thoughts"

"We're snowed in"

"Do you want to build a snowman?"

"Your lips are turning blue"

"I can't feel my feet"

"Make sure you bring a jacket"

"I'm so cold, I can't stop shivering"

Kylo let out a huff, pulling the blanket again. “Its my blanket, I get to decide where it goes.”

“Quit hogging the blanket.”

“The dark side demands warmth.” Kylo rolled over, pulling even more of the blanket with him.

Sharing a Bed Sentence Starters

“If you tell me one more pun, I’m shoving you off of this bed.”

“Quit hogging the blanket.”

“You pushed me out of bed in your sleep.”

“I woke up in the middle of the night without any blankets and your foot digging into my spine.”

“You said the cutest thing in your sleep last night.”

“You say the scariest stuff in your sleep.”

“When I have a bad dream, just listening to you breathe calms me down.”

“Your feet are freezing.”

“The dog takes up more of the bed than I do.”

“It’s lonely without you in the bed.”

“I’m not kidding, you really do snore.”

“Can I sleep with you tonight?”

“Apparently you’re a sleepwalker.”

“I don’t think we need anymore stuffed animals in the bed.”

“Can you make the bed today?”

“If you have a nightmare, I’m going to be right here for you.”

“I miss sleeping with you.”

“I love cuddling with you first thing in the morning.”

“You’re so beautiful when you’re just waking up.”

“Where are you going? It’s late.”

“Please come back to bed.”

Saden:

Saden didn’t need any training with the Force to know his master was peeved. The annoyance practically dripped from his voice and Saden knew he was the only one to blame, but that didn’t make this suck any less. “Well sorry, I thought it would be easier to say you were sleeping that to tell you you were passed out.”

He should have known better than to sass his own master, but how could he not in this moment? They were both tied up and there was no telling when the next guard would be coming around to check on them. So the sooner they got out of here, the better. He sighed loudly when Kylo told him to be quiet, Saden moving his legs around in the restraints as if to try and loosen them.

In doing so, he noticed their legs weren’t tied very well and he guessed the bounty hunters assumed they’d be passed out longer. He could feel Kylo moving his hands beside his own and was surprised to hear he had managed to untie them so quickly. Looking up expectantly, he waited for Kylo to undo his next, but Kylo moved instead to pick up his belongs.

Blinking, he waited until Kylo told Saden to break himself out before he moved. “Jerk,” Saden muttered before he felt the ropes himself with his own hands, it didn’t take long to find the knot on the inside of the ropes and soon he began to work to untie it.

Leave it to him to not use the Force to undo the knot and instead waste precious time doing it by hand, but as soon as it was loose, Saden quickly pulled his hands out and stood up to undo his legs. He had to take his time though, if he did it too quickly, he’d trip and probably make a fool of himself in front of Kylo. He didn’t need more of that today.

“Any bright ideas on how to get out of here?” Saden asked, turning his head as he began to gather up the ropes they had been bound with. They could come in handy.

He was annoyed. Every word that came out of Saden's mouth was making it worse. Did he think he was allowed to act like this when it was his fault they were in this situation? 

“You lost the right to your sarcasm when you got us caught. So I suggest you shut up.”

Kylo pushed open the door, knowing that no one was outside it and didn’t bother to wait for Saden to gather his things. He’d have to catch up, and Kylo wasn’t going to try and save him again. There was a certain way he did things, and if Saden was becoming more of a hindrance than a help, he’d leave him. Kylo would find some way to collect him later, but both of them being captured would be a help to no one. 

He turned a corner, stopping immedietly after. He closed his eyes and tried to gauge how close their enemies were. He could feel a few coming towards them, but most were in the opposite direction. At least he’d taken the correct turn. He pushed forward, glancing briefly behind him to see if Saden was keeping close. 

When we return you won’t be going on any missions for a while. Kylo spoke directly into Saden’s mind, making it clear that they needed to be quiet. You’re going to be on the Finalizer, with me. And we’ll make sure your skills are sharpened.

The small group of men turned the corner and before they could even raise their blasters Kylo had cut them down with his lightsaber.

You waist time, you worry about being embarrassed instead of -- Kylo stopped for a moment, realizing that there was a third enemy. He heard the sound of a blaster being fired and raised his hand, stopping it just before it reached him. 

“Get rid of this one.”

"What do you do when you can't sleep?"

It wasn’t a rare occurrence. Ben often stared at the walls for hours before convincing himself that it simply wasn’t going to happen that night. It shouldn’t have been usual for a child, but he was used to it by that point. Usually he’d go to his Mom. He’d tug on her sleeve and poke her side until she woke up. Sometimes she’d bring him back to bed and tell him to try again. That was usually if she had something to do in the morning, which was most nights. Every once in a while she’d read him a story or bring him into the living room to watch a holo. Ben liked nights like that, he felt a lot better after them and the world seemed a bit quieter. 

He didn’t know how his Dad would react. He wasn’t sure if his Dad even knew it was a regular thing. “Mom sometimes watches a holo with me.”

it’s been ages and I just felt like it.
