A scooterpengie Reylo comic? In 2022?? This one's for all you Reylos returning from twitter
I see this trope of "Rey hates Ben but can't turn down free food" in fanfics a lot and I thought it would be funny to draw in canonverse.

No Way to Say ‘Goodbye’
Kylo Ren x Reader
Warnings: Literally just so much unspoken love. Like, an insane amount of it.
Word Count: 830
Summary: You wake up with Kylo Ren.
Author’s Note: This is just a reminder that my requests ARE open for pretty much any of Adam’s characters! If you have any ideas, thoughts, or requests, feel free to send them my way :) Also, I am thinking of making a new taglist for my writing, so if you’d like to be tagged in my writing, let me know, and I’ll be sure to make that happen! - Ryn
Tumblr media
“I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm, your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm. Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new. In city and in forest, they smiled like me and you, but now it's come to distances and both of us must try. Your eyes are soft with sorrow, and hey, that's no way to say goodbye . . .” - Hey That’s No Way to Say Goodbye, Feist
It is early when Kylo Ren wakes and looks over to his left. You are sleeping beside him, your chest rising and falling steadily as you dream. He finds himself wondering what it is you’re dreaming about. If it’s good. If it’s calm. If it’s him. 
He’s leaving today. That much is certain. He has to find the scavenger, turn her, bring her to the Dark Side. He’s not sure how long he’ll be gone for. Kylo reaches down and caresses your cheek, an action that he normally wouldn’t be caught doing during the day. If the two of you were on a planet, though, the sun wouldn’t even be up, so Kylo lets himself touch your cheek. Your hair is splayed out on his pillow, and you stir as he pulls his hand away. 
This could be the end of everything, Kylo realizes as emotion rises behind his eyes. He doesn’t cry. He never cries, but he might right now. You just look so beautiful and soft and . . . Good. 
You are good. A good lover, a good conversationalist, a good person. He’s the complete opposite, always so tied up with responsibilities and tasks that mean little to him. He doesn’t have time to be good. 
Your eyes open slowly, and Kylo’s face is the first thing that you see. You smile instantly. Kylo isn’t sure why. 
“Hey,” you say, reaching for his hand. “What time is it?” 
“Five,” Kylo says. You hum, bringing his hand to your lips so that you can kiss his fingers. He swallows harshly. “When do you have to go?” 
“Soon.” 
You nod, looking away from his face so that you can focus on his hand. His hands are so lovely: Big and rough and strong. You bring it up to your cheek, silently asking him to touch the skin there. 
He does. 
“You should go,” Kylo breathes, voice barely above a whisper. He knows that his voice is on the verge of shaking. You nod, offering him a small smile. 
“I know, love,” you say. Kylo rubs your cheek with the pad of his thumb. “Will you call me while you’re away?”
“If you would like that,” he says. “Of course I would.”
You sit up, stretching and looking away. You knew this was coming, but you didn’t think it would be so soon. You thought he’d at least get you something to eat, something to drink, something to hold onto. 
You go to stand and get re-dressed – you’re still naked from the night before – and Kylo catches your wrist. You look back at him. 
“I . . . “ he starts.
There is so much he needs to tell you, like how he notices the way you stare at him during meetings, and how much you make him feel, and how deeply you have derailed his existence just by being yourself and having him in this way. 
He closes his mouth. 
You sigh, then pull away and grab your clothes. You get dressed slowly, and you feel his eyes on you the entire time. You grab Kylo’s undershirt, the one he was wearing last night, and slip it on over your uniform. “May I keep this?” you ask him. 
“Yes.”
You nod, then pull the sleeves down over your wrists. “I’ll, um . . . I’ll go, then,” you say after you pull your boots on. Kylo stands quickly, still wearing only a pair of underwear, and steps in front of you. He looks at you desperately, wishing more than anything that you could simply read his mind so that he wouldn’t have to say it out loud–
“Please be safe while I’m gone,” Kylo says. You put your hands on his warm chest as he speaks. “I’d never forgive myself if something happened to you.” 
You smile softly, gently, and reach up to touch the scar on his cheek. 
“Nothing will happen to me, love,” you say. “Don’t worry. Just bring the scavenger back with you, alright?” 
Kylo nods. 
“I will.”
You lean up and kiss him, then. It is deep. Passionate. Loving. It conveys all that the two of you are too afraid to say: I love you. I need you. Take care of yourself.
You pull away, tuck a piece of hair behind his ear, and offer him a smile. 
“I’ll see you, Supreme Leader.”
Kylo nods, pulling his hands off of your hips as you take your hand off his cheek. 
“Yes,” he says quietly. “Soon.”

Tormented souls (Kylo Ren x reader)
Part 2
Warnings: this story will contain a lot of 18+ content. Lots of dark themes and triggers. Please read at your own risk.
First writing I’ve done lots of improvements to make and learning chapter by chapter. Hoping to make this into a series.
Tumblr media
“On your feet the supreme leader has requested your presence” the trooper shouted.
You hesitated backing into the corner wanting nothing more then to escape from this situation.
“Let’s not make this harder for anyone on your feet and MOVE” he screamed.
You shot up wearily in front of the trooper.
Walking along the endless dark corridors all you could think about was how you were going to die. Would it be slow and painful, or torture, you hoped for the first one. What did the supreme leader want with you. You thought back to what the trooper had said to you before you were knocked out. He said that the supreme leader would want you, what for?
As you walked past what you assumed was security for the supreme leader one of the guards questioned the trooper leading you in.
“Is this the new girl, my my what a pretty little one” the guard hummed at you. You showed pure disgust with his words and wandering eyes.
“The supreme leader has requested her to be brought to him”
“Phaaahha poor little thing won’t last a day with him. The last one only lasted a week” he smirked.
“I’ll have whatever is left after his done with you” he shouted as you walked away being lead to certain death. It suddenly dawned on you that sex might be required. You couldn’t do that, there’s no way you would open your legs for any of these men. Especially the supreme leader his done awful things and hurt so many people not to mention killing your mother. You wouldn’t do it. You couldn’t stop thinking about that guards eyes as he looked over your body you felt sick thinking about what he would do to you given the chance.
There were big black double doors to where you assumed the supreme leader would be. The trooper opened them and there he sat in all his glory. Clothed in a thick black cape, black pants and top. His gloves were covering clenched fists. The helmet he wore radiated dominance. He had no human features on show making him all the more terrifying. This also made him colder almost like no one was under that helmet.
“My lord this is the girl from EO you sensed”
“Sensed what does that mean” you piped up. Looking down not to annoy the supreme leader. You were now trembling.
“Leave us” Kylo lowly growled.
This was it the moment to ask what’s going on and if he killed you for it so be it.
“Why am I here what does it mean sensed me” you coldly asked.
“You are here because I need someone new and I’ve already seen inside your head your so pure” he smirked.
“Someone new for what” you bluntly questioned.
He sat still for a moment not saying anything looking like he was making careful decisions.
“From now on you will live in my chambers and do everything that is asked of you”
“What like a maid or something?” You asked.
“I guess you could say that, you will not make any noise that is not necessary and you will only speak when spoken to. If you try anything you will be punished in ways you cannot Imagine” he told you.
This scared you seeing how confident he spoke. Almost like his words alone would make you do anything he wanted. You felt slight ease at being made to do something you were already good at and familiar with. Maintaining somewhere was something your mother had taught you. To be caring and provide a perfect home for you and your family.
“Go with Adrianne now he will give you a tour and show you everything you need, you will start immediately” Kylo stated.
The trooper your guessing was Adrianne grabbed your arm taking you to the supreme leaders living quarters.
The quarters were huge, there was so many rooms and huge corridors with giant windows out to space making you feel small and worthless. This place was fit for a king. It was dark and seductive in a way. You noticed a few other girls working around the place ignoring you completely. You felt nervous that you wouldn’t be working alone.
Showing you to a small bedroom Adrianne gave you some more information “you will ensure all your jobs are completed daily, there is a checklist stuck up on the board in the cleaning cupboard that will tell you what to do. Don’t miss anything and only stick to your jobs don’t help anyone else either” he huffed
“Where will I stay?” You questioned.
“This is your bedroom” he gestured to the small room.
“This is the closest room to the supreme leaders bedroom so you will need to be available to work all hours of the day and night” he said.
“What will I be doing a night?” You coldly questioned.
“If the supreme leader requests your presence to his bedroom you will go unless you want to die, if you keep your head down and do everything that he asks of you, you might survive longer”
“How wonderful” you sarcastically commented.
“I’ll leave you to settle in and then you must start your list of jobs for the rest of the day, at some point you will meet the head maid Val and she will help with any questions” with that he left closing your bedroom door behind you.
Finally a moment to breathe and think about what has happened. You started crying looking around the foreign bedroom that certainly was not yours. It was dark, cold and knowing you were close to the supreme leader made your spine go cold. How would you live like this and how long could you avoid sleeping with him. It was all too much you had to snap out of this if you wanted to survive.
You had a small ensuite with toilet, sink and little shower. It was enough. With being in space the view from your tiny window was actually really amazing. It sucked all the light out of you looking out into the vast darkness. They must never have daylight up here.
You went to the bathroom and freshened up. You found some plain uniform in the chest of drawers. A black t-shirt and black skirt. You slipped on your black shoes and stepped out of your bedroom door. You made your way down to the cleaning cupboard which was actually more like a room. It was bigger then your bedroom. You found your name on a list of jobs and started straight away. It must of been pretty late in the day already so there wasn’t too much to be done but you were incredibly tired so getting it done quickly was a must.
You spent a couple of hours pottering around. All the other workers you saw earlier must have finished and gone back to there bedrooms because no one was around. You were grateful for being alone right now with your thoughts. Once you finished you put everything back where you found it and headed straight for bed. You undressed yourself and climbed under the duvet. How was this happening you thought to yourself tears starting to fall from your eyes. Your poor mother you missed her so much already and home. You missed home the way it smelt the fresh air, your friends. You would never see any of that again. Your heart was aching at the loss of your home and everyone you have ever known. You must of slipped off into a deep sleep because your mind finally went blank.
Part 2 complete - I’m kinda smashing through these chapters trying to map out a story then completing chapter by chapter. There will be smut soon I just need to build a back story first. I hope you can all give any feedback or something that would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks 😊

Into the Reverb (Kylo Ren/Reader)
Tumblr media
Chapter Four
Kylo takes a big swig of coffee, as he turns off the highway. Still groggy from his fitful sleep, his mind swam with thoughts of you. He sighs. He knows this is crazy to be affected so soon. He barely knows you but something inside that's pulling him to you. Like a moth to a flame. He’s brought out of his thoughts by the car pinging and the smart screen lighting up. It's Vic confirming their catering plans for today and a reminder for their weekly Instagram and Tiktok update. Fuck.
He only has Instagram and Tiktok because of the band. Kuruk, Cardo and Vic manage the page and their following has continued to grow. It’s overwhelming at times. The fans are constantly asking for more, more access, more of them.
Apparently Trudgen’s sneaky recording of Kylo playing shirtless in the studio last week caused quite a buzz. According to Cardo, there are thirst accounts for him now. Personally, it makes him uncomfortable. He’s an artist not a piece of meat. He sighs and grips the steering wheel tighter.
As Kylo pulls into the lot, he notices your SUV is not there. He looks at the dash quickly, making sure he didn’t mess up the time today. No, it's 10:30. You should be here already. Dread stews in his gut but he steels his features as he walks into the studio.
The rest of the Knights are already there waiting on him as he lumbers in. “Damn Ky you look like shit” called Ushar from behind the kit. “Fuck you too” he growled reaching for his guitar. Instead of using one of the studio’ guitars, he has been bringing his vintage black Fender. Blood sweat and tears have poured over that guitar making it a literal extension of him. “Damn you're grumpier than usual” Kuruk said “you need to get some bro”. Kylo rolls his eyes at him and growls “can we get to work please?”
The session seems to be taking forever. While his mates are happy with their progress, Kylo is less so. He can’t focus. He will not be able to focus properly until he sees your pretty face, confirming you are okay.
He swears under his breath as he sees Rae and DeeDee walk into the room. He sits on a large speaker and pretends to fiddle with his guitar. He doesn’t want their attention. “Kylo!” Kuruk yells “when’s food gonna be here?” He looks over to see Rae on Kuruk’s lap, her fingers laced in his long hair.
“Around 11:30” he grunts. “Awesome, I’m starving, you wanna head over and set up?” Rey chirps loudly. Kylo rolls his eyes at how fake she sounds. She has come on to every single band member. He’s not surprised Kuruk complied.
He growls to himself as he places his guitar on the speaker and follows his bandmates out the door. He scans the hallway and studio rooms as they head to the cafeteria to meet the caterers. Still nothing. Anxiety and anger start to seep into his veins. Where are you? Are you okay? He silently prays to any deity who will listen that you are safe and healthy wherever you are.
The caterers arrived shortly after and began setup. Rae took a look around the room and flounced over to him. “Oh my God Kylo, this looks amazing! Kuruk told me this was your idea. Thank you!" as she hugs him. He tenses as his hands form fists at his sides.
He debates between pushing her off and calling Kuruk over to get his slut off of him. He doesn’t have to do either as she releases him, a small pout on her lips and those tell tale moon eyes. “You’re welcome” he grumbles and walks towards the caterers to tip them.
This wasn’t for Rae or for the execs, even though it does help their relationship with the studio. This was for you. So he knew you would be well fed for today. He lumbered away and sat in a chair away from the party, sending you a text and then distracting himself with lyrics for the rest of lunch.
Chewie had given you Monday off after Friday’s episode. You were so embarrassed. Why did Kylo have to see you like that? He probably thinks you are broken or something now. As you clean your condo you look out the window.
Something has been brewing between you and him over the last few weeks. The attraction is definitely there. What if he would make a move? How would you respond? You shake your head and smirk to yourself. You know how. What sane hot blooded woman wouldn't with that man.
It’s a long shot anyway. With girls like Rae and DeeDee around, who are far more forward, you know your chances are slim to none. Your hands start to fidget. You go through your mental checklist for the day.
Windows clean, kitchen and bathroom spotless, dinner marinating in the fridge, floors cleaned. What to do with the rest of the day? You pull out your phone and see two texts from Kylo; Hey are you here? followed shortly by Hey you okay? Haven’t seen you today yet. We ordered food. Your heart flutters in your chest. Was he worried about you? Why didn’t the team tell him you were off today?
You pull up Instagram and go to the studio’s page. Tallie runs the page and is great at making the content fun and inviting, often including their bands. The most recent post shows KOR behind two large tables of food along with Rae and Chewie. Everyone is smiling except for Kylo of course. You sigh, he is so grumpily perfect. You close the app and send him a quick text before distracting yourself again. I'm okay, thanks for asking. See you tomorrow. You have a small hope in your heart that the message makes his day better.
Big thanks to my girls @asnackdriver @punk-in-docs @the-wayward-rose @thepilotanon @ladyzimmerman for their amazing support and lots of laughs! ily ❤️

Me at myself in the mirror at 3:50 in the afternoon one day: the thing about the sequel trilogy of star wars is that Finn was in the perfect position to be a foil to Kylo Ren and a hopeful spin on the character of Anakin Skywalker and the fact that nobody even noticed these parallels is a testament to the power of racism and the fact that bigotry actually makes you a worse writer
No but. Anakin’s out here with his introduction in the prequels as a slave, and it’s poorly done but implied that the pain and fear of that part of his life impacts how he interacts with… basically everything ever, and ultimately makes him susceptible to palpatine’s grooming; your mileage may vary on the ratio of canon to fanon in this interpretation but I think we can all agree being a slave from birth is gonna fuck a kid up and there’s a reason why George lucas chose this particular backstory for him.
So you’ve got Kylo Ren, eschewing a family that cares for him (please don’t talk to me about whatever the fuck was going on in those last jedi flashbacks first of all that’s bad writing babe and second, we’re talking solely about the expectations and possibilities established in force awakens because there’s not enough narrative or character consistency in the sequel trilogy to take. Anything as a whole there) in order to chase after this version of his grandfather that isn’t even the version he died as. Like! Whether you think Anakin/Vader achieved redemption or simply did one good thing at the end of his life, we all know that act of sacrifice on Luke’s behalf is. The definition of Star Wars. Vader choosing to do good in his last moments was what the original trilogy built towards and what the prequel trilogy always knew, and it’s this fucked up spectre over everything Kylo Ren says or does in Force Awakens because he’s out here pleading with the ghost of a man who is not real, he’s chasing Vader instead of Anakin Skywalker and ignoring the choices his own grandpa made in the name of… honouring him somehow???
And then there’s Finn. Finn who’s been raised since who knows when but definitely childhood given he has no name to remember to be a weapon for the First Order. Somehow I doubt they pay their stormtroopers, somehow I expect their education is more indoctrination than anything, somehow I doubt Finn was ever instilled with a sense that he as a person mattered – Finn’s a slave when we meet him. Unequivocally. And this man who’s known nothing else his entire life turns around and says “actually I think I will do good things or at least stop doing bad ones” and runs the fuck away, freeing himself. (and also Poe. Something something the act of saving others in turn saves you, this is my eternal soapbox but that’s not my point right now)
Finn is afraid, and very nearly runs away from the fight like “I’m safe so it doesn’t matter what happens to others” – when satisfied that Rey is safe (and under the impression that Poe is dead) he feels no strong compulsion to protect an ambiguous “rest of the galaxy” which honestly is exactly the vibes Anakin Skywalker has for pretty much all his life. Anakin would be a hero because the people he cared about wanted him to be. He fought for Padme and Obi-Wan and frigging Palpatine (and Ahsoka, I say, skipping outside the movies for a hot second because I love her) first and foremost, and the Jedi and the Republic because those were the causes his loved ones cared about. Finn has the opportunity to get away, to protect himself for the first time in his life, and he doesn’t have to worry about the few people he cares about so he very nearly goes for it.
Then the thing is, Finn, unlike Anakin, doesn’t let that fear rule him? He turns around and goes back for Rey, follows Poe, stays with the Resistance. He gets to be terrified but he also says that terror isn’t his only motivating factor, and that his self-interest matters less to him than the galaxy – a choice Anakin struggled to make until literally the end of his life.
In conclusion, if the sequel trilogy had stuck to its guns and been about the tragedy of history as a cycle and the way we cling to idealised pasts and torture ourselves over might-have-beens (and also how that inaction and obsession with history allows the rise of fascism bc we spend so much time patting ourselves on the back for defeating ‘the bad guy’ we ignore what gave the bad guy power) – if it had been a well written story Finn should have been a hopeful twist to the story of Darth Vader, a man who faced the same struggles as Anakin but made better, kinder choices, which would bring it nicely full circle considering George Lucas was like. Very into star wars as being about Vader
But nope we had to have whatever that poorly written racist tug-of-war was instead. I don’t know about you but I need better fandoms

The way two different people I followed years and years ago for completely different things have posted in the last three days about missing julie and the phantoms... Fucking hell Netflix do you see what you've done. This show was for everyone and you've ruined it. Can you imagine if these people had posted about jatp before now. I might have actually verbally interacted with people I've quietly awkwardly admired for years.

Midway through Andor and I don't have very solid thoughts, at least not ones that haven't been said already by ppl much better at saying them, but something about seeing the ppl on Aldhani have this religious experience while all this shit goes on behind them. The way the whole chaos of the interspliced scenes quiets for a moment as the sky lights up - and then it's right back to the heist because they don't care because they can't afford to care and it's not their belief anyway
The empire sees the Eye as this thing to gawk at and Cassian and co are looking at the Eye as part asset part obstacle, just something to navigate through, and it would be easy to stay with their perspectives, but instead we get these moments of wonder and community, the culture that these people are trying to protect independently of all this galactic scale stuff - and then of course we also know that the empire is doing their level best to take that away too
I'm not phrasing any of this well but man that aspect of it really got to me and I'm not even sure why, fully

My #1 post of 2022
I wrote a Big Bang fic!!! the amazing @willexmagic was my partner and made some lovely moodboards which I will be reblogging in a hot second, and I had a lot of fun (and maybe some tears) working on this monstrosity of a Superman AU
If you’ve ever wanted Flynn and Carrie to be Clark Kent and Lois Lane (or even if you haven’t and just want superhero content?) then here is the fic! Featuring my usual favourite things of friend angst, sad Flynn hours, and ensemble cast shenanigans, as well as me wandering wildly through some of my favourite coomic book tropes.

How does your Trystan and Nora look like?
aah thank you so much for this anon! I have been wanting an excuse to workshop their appearances forever lately
let's talk about nora:
she is far from the canon version - i mean, there is some resemblance, but far from what i could envision it from the closets and hairstyles and appearances canon provides. we'll start with her physique - she's got a light brown complexion, black eyes and black hair - which is sort of choppy but at the same time, somewhat of a bob with an appreciable fringe - think audrey hepburn's haircut served with a side of winona ryder-as-lelaina pierce's in reality bites (1994). nora also has a very athletic physique - heavy on the biceps and triceps with some incredible muscle mass but is quite short (she's like 5"4) - likely the shortest in her family of goliaths. she wears a lot of loose clothing - nothing that's "flattering" since she gets really hot and sweaty and hates when clothes stick to her. so she's got her dad's old corduroy jacket a size too big for her or a black blazer, a green dress shirt or some staple flannel in her closet. she usually goes for some loose-fitting jeans or some proper trousers (the kind you get paired up with a suit). for shoes, she either wears running shoes or plain old white sneakers. as for any prominent scars or marks, she's got a really faint, thin, but very obvious one running across her right eye. think the faded version of kylo ren's scar in the last jedi. it's kind of a running joke as to how she got the scar - sometimes she tells people she engaged in a knife fight with someone, sometimes she tells people it 'happened on the job' when really, it was just a kitchen accident. nora also wears a small chain around her neck with this opening-locket-esque mechanism with nothing inside. it's something that belonged to her mother and has become a good luck charm. she also wears an old cerulean g-shock watch on her left hand.
and now trystan:
my version of trystan doesn't really stray that far from canon as nora does, apart from some minor changes. with the physique - he's got a tanned brown complexion, brown hair with blonde roots (from the time he coloured his hair some funky shades, emika wasn't too proud of his hack job) and a sideburn cut. he does have a prominent fringe that falls right on top of his right eye, sometimes partially obscuring it. trystan is tall, has a fairly bulky physique, dark brown eyes. he has this weird disproportionate body type where his legs are just super long compared to the height from head-to-torso, which explains why most of his suits are tailor-made.
trystan's wardrobe in my canon isn't far too different from the actual canon in the books. he likes wearing suits - especially the comfort a good blazer can bring (nora can agree). he sometimes wears just the shirt over a leather jacket of some kind, lots and lots of striped black shirts, belts with chains, cargo pants for a brief period of time just for its utility, even swapping his blazer for a waistcoat from time to time. he usually settles for dress shoes, but also frequents boots, streetwear and trainers. though he doesn't vary a lot when it comes to day-to-day clothing, he does live it up with jewelry.
from cool assortments of rings - ones with gemstones, ones without them and it's just this intricate design, a couple of faux-silver bracelets should he get into a mood and a single gold clip-on earring in his left ear (he just has one piercing). the bracelets usually have some lettering or engraving on it. while he isn't superstitious, he is a little stitious.
thank you so much for this ask, anon! I'd love to get into the groovy details but you can only put so much into an answer before it gets tiresome and eyesore-y. thank you for letting me talk about it! <33

Spy on the inside
Tumblr media
Requested by @starseed-elise : The reader is a spy for the resistance and encounters StarKiller base, Kylo being the first she meets after stepping on board as part of her mission to spy. She’s able to fool him by convincing him to let her join his side and when he does, they both gain a little bit of feelings for each other. He doesn’t find out that she’s a spy until she makes her escape with the crew Leia sends. Maybe instead of Poe getting shot in the arm, it’s the reader’s arm that gets shot during her escape. Kylo ends up reaching to her before she can make the full escape and helps take care of her wounded arm?
Warnings : Mentions of violence, fem reader (she/her)
Notes : Is the title a hamilton reference? Perhaps (also thank you for your requests love! i really loved this one and i got into it while writing lol)
You were one of, if not the, best spy in the resistance's ranks. General Leia trusted you to go in, get the job done, and get out. You got your job done with efficiency and no one could or would see you coming. No one could tell you were a spy until you were done with your work but even then, they couldn't do anything about it.
So that's why General Leia sent you into the First Order to get information about a new rumored base. The base was supposedly a similar design to the Death Star, but bigger and more powerful. Leia knew sending in a whole squad to get information would be too risky, too noticeable. The general decided that you would be the resistance's best bet to get information.
You were dropped off on a First Order star destroyer. Poe helped you sneak in with his ship in stealth mode before flying away safely. You quickly navigated the hangar and found a small closet. You locked yourself inside before quickly changing into a First Order uniform you had packed. Once changed and making sure the coast was clear, you quickly made you way through the halls of the star destroyer.
The halls were shiny and all black, but you didn't get confused. You had seen schematics of the ship before going on your mission, you knew where you were going.
The bridge would pretty empty at that time, it would be easy for you to go in and get the information you needed. You would hide in plain sight and get your mission done.
Until you turned the corner and ran into Commander Kylo Ren.
You quickly backed away and ducked your head down, muttering a quick apology. Kylo Ren tilted his head to the side, almost studying you.
"I haven't seen you around the ship before. You're in a ranking officer's uniform so I should have-"
"General Hux has been keeping me busy," you quickly cut him off. "I've been meaning to speak with you, if you don't mind, Commander."
You found a new objective : get close to Kylo Ren and get even more information about the First Order.
"Speak," Kylo commanded.
"Stop me if I step out of boundaries, but I believe that my skills could be put to better use."
"How?"
"By being your spy for the resistance," you whispered. Kylo looked at you, his mask's visor staring down at you. "I no longer believe in what the Resistance is meant to be but I have plenty of information and experience that I believe I could prove useful to you."
With all your years of spying, you had lying down to an art. You could lie about the smallest or largest things and people would believe you either way. The only thing that worried you was if Kylo Ren could read through you with the force.
"Hm, you do intrigue me. What information do you have that would be useful?"
"Maps, locations, battle plans, supply counts and chains, anything you'd want."
Kylo thought for a moment, before asking for your name. You gave it to him, then he started to walk past you, motioning you to follow him. Once his back was turned to you, you smirked and quickly kept up with him. You had the commander wrapped around your finger and he didn't even know it.
----
A usual mission last you a couple of weeks at most, but it’s been two or three months since you’ve arrived on Kylo’s ship. You gave the resistance updates frequently at the start of the mission, but soon they became every other day. Then twice a week, then once, and now you gave them updates irregularly and not frequently either. 
The reason? You were crushing over Kylo Ren.
It seemed silly at first. You? Falling in love with someone who is suppose to be your enemy? All while on one of your biggest missions of your career? That just sounded like a bad rumor made up by Poe as a joke. But it was true, and you couldn’t believe it yourself.
After a while of feeding him fake information about the resistance, the two of you started to warm up to each other. He promoted you (in a way) to be his personal assistant. You were by his side almost the entire time either of you were awake.
It took him a while to get comfortable enough to take his helmet off in front of you, but eventually he started taking his helmet off more and more. When you first saw his face, you adored him. He was handsome to say the least. His dark hair and equally dark eyes. His pale skin was freckled with marks here and there. It also didn’t help that when he got comfortable enough, he was actually a sweetheart. He treated you with respect and, surprisingly, kindness. 
How couldn’t you develop feelings for him?
Lucky for you, or unlucky since he wouldn’t tell you, Kylo had feelings for you, too. At first, he just saw you as another person in his grand plan of taking down the resistance. But he stopped asking for information and started just talking to you about anything. He was curious about you, intrigued by you. 
Which is why he ordered the ship to go to Starkiller base. He wanted to show you this massive project, he trusted you enough to show you the base. But as the ship reached the planet-destroying base, your heart started to break. You knew it was your mission to get information on the base, but now it would hurt Kylo.
The ship was still outside of the planet’s atmosphere, preparing to land soon. You were at your desk, completing some simple forms, when Kylo quickly walked over to you. “Do you mind if I pull you away from your work for a moment? There’s something I want to show you,” Kylo asked.
“I don’t mind at all, work is getting too repetitive,” you answered with a smile. Kylo took your hand in his and led you out of your office, down the many halls of the ship. Eventually, he stopped in front of a large window in a empty hallway. You looked out the window and there it was. 
Starkiller Base.
You gasped, genuinely surprised. All the schematics, all the plans, all the conversations you’ve seen while working on the ship have been downplaying the massive base. The weapon was implanted in the actual planet, and much, much larger than the death stars. 
“I know, it’s very impressive,” Kylo replied to your gasp. The two of you stood next to each other, but Kylo didn’t let your hand go. You didn’t pull it away either.
“I never....this is...” You were so taken back that you couldn’t even form a sentence. You wanted to know how it worked. You wanted to know where the core was. You wanted to know so many things, but you couldn’t ask Kylo for it. You didn’t want to ask Kylo.
Kylo Ren was distracting you from your mission, but you didn’t mind at all.
After a few minutes of silence, Kylo looked over at you, still wide eyed at the base. He laughed quietly and stepped closer, wrapping his arm around your waist. “I know you’ve seen the maps a hundred times now, but would you like a tour when we get down there?”
“Yes,” you answered quickly, not even thinking. Kylo smiled and cupped your cheek, making you look at him. The two of you studied each other, silence taking over for a few more moments.
“I don’t understand it but, you intrigue me, dear,” Kylo started. “Anytime I try to pull away from you, I get pulled back in. It’s like I cannot separate myself from you.”
“Then don’t. I can’t pull away either, Kylo,” you replied quietly as you leaned up and tilted your head to the side. He leaned down and pressed his lips to yours. 
The kiss was sweet, full of love that had been building up for a while. But it was cut short by someone clearing their throat at the end of the throat. You pulled away and took a step back, shyly tucking some hair behind your ear. Kylo quickly turned around to see General Hux waiting for him at the end of the hall.
“Commander Ren, if you’re done here, we need you on the bridge,” Hux said, his arms behind his back. 
“I’ll be there in a moment,” Kylo replied. He turned back to you with an annoyed sigh. You shared a look with him, both annoyed that Hux interrupted your kiss. Kylo pressed a kiss to your cheek before leaving with Hux.
You stood there in front of the window, watching the planet below and touching the spot on your cheek where Kylo had kissed you moments ago.
----
As promised, Kylo gave you a tour of Starkiller base. Obviously not every single nook and cranny of the place, but the important areas. Including the central control room. 
Lights out on base was the perfect time to gather the information you needed. You snuck out of your quarters, which were right next to Kylo’s, and snuck down the halls. You only memorized the way to get from your room to the central control room. Plus, you knew that even when it’s lights out, the night shift in the control room would still be working.
So, when you reached the central control room, you walked in like everything was normal. Like you weren’t about to steal as much information as you could and pass it off to the resistance. 
You found a pretty empty corner with a console and made a beeline to it. You quickly accessed the console and stuck in a data stick, all before uploading all the information and files you could. But as you watched the little upload line slowly make it’s way across the screen, your mind went to Kylo.
He was asleep in his quarters, blissfully unaware that you were going behind his back, betraying his trust and love. It hurt you, but this was your mission. You were just distracted for a while and now you were back on track.
But his lips on yours and your cheek. His hand holding yours. His arm around your waist. Him. You were completely smitten with Kylo Ren.
Your mind had wandered for a while so when you finally focused back in on the console, a little complete symbol was displayed on the screen. You quickly pulled out the data stick and exhaled before leaving the control room.
You quarters on the base were pretty basic, all black and gray to match the First Order color scheme. You kicked off your boots and fell back onto your back. Your mind wandered again. You had to complete your mission, the resistance and systems across the galaxy were counting on it. But you couldn’t just betray Kylo like that, you cared and loved him too much. 
Just the thought hurt your heart. 
Finally, you made up your mind. You grabbed your hidden communicator and activated it for the first time in at least two weeks. “Come in, this is agent Y/N reporting,” you said quietly.
The communicator’s signal was hidden from the First Order’s since it was masked to looked like one of their’s. A few moments of static later, a voice came in. “Good to hear from you again. What updates do you have?” Poe’s voice came in through the communicator.
“I’m on Starkiller base and I have all the information we needed and more.”
“So, do you need a pick up?”
“Yes I do.”
“I’m sending a squad right now, I’ll make sure to alert General Leia as well. See you soon.”
“See you soon, Poe,” you replied, turning off the communicator. You laid, spread out on your bed and closed your eyes, trying to get some rest before everything hit the fan.
----
Alarms blared and woke Kylo up. He got out of bed and pulled on his helmet, securing his lightsaber on his belt. He left his quarters and went to your quarters but when he knocked, he didn’t get a response. He knocked again and once more but when he didn’t get any reply, he used the force to open the blast door open. 
Kylo was met with an empty room. 
Panic ran through him. He didn’t know where you were and someone could’ve gotten to you, could’ve hurt you. Kylo turned and raced down the halls, trying to find you. General Hux found him though, but Kylo couldn’t care less. He just barked out orders to Hux all while trying to find you.
Poe met up with you, leading you back to the hangar where his ship was. Leia ended up only sending him and not a squadron. You weren’t surprised, Leia wasn’t one to risk an entire squad on a pick up operation.
You and Poe rounded the corner and was met with a group of stormtroopers. The two of you started shooting but were very out numbered. One of the troopers somehow had a decent shot and hit you in the arm. You and Poe hid behind a wall, taking shots at the troopers. “We’re out numbered, Poe. We have to split up,” you said.
“Alright, I’ll meet you at the hangar,” Poe replied. You two nodded at each other before running in separate directions. 
After you separated from Poe, you felt the pain from the blaster shot. You gripped your arm as you groaned, leaning against the wall. You took a few moments to catch your breath before continuing to run towards the hangar.
With one last turn, you had a straight path to the hangar and you could see Poe’s x-wing. You were almost there, almost out. Your mission was almost complete. 
Then Kylo Ren stepped out.
You stopped where you were, your heart sinking. “Kylo...”
“So you lied to me?” He asked. “I should’ve known, but I wanted you more than I wanted to get the upper hand on the resistance.”
“Please Kylo, if I really didn’t care about you I would’ve been gone a long time ago but I’ve been here for months because I love you.”
“Then why did you lie to me?”
You didn’t have an answer. Kylo’s hands reached up to his helmet and took it off, dropping it on the ground with a thud that echoed through the halls. There were tears in his eyes. “Answer me, darling.”
“I don’t know why, Kylo,” you answered.
The alarms continued to blare and Poe’s voice came in through your communicator, telling you to hurry up. But you and Kylo ignored all the noise. 
His gaze dipped down to your wounded arm, which you were still gripping tightly. He quickly made his was over to you and gently took your wounded arm into his hands. His large hand covered the wound and you felt the energy transfer from him to you. A force ability no doubt.
When he pulled his hands away, you saw your skin was back to normal and there was no more wound. You looked up at him, tears in your eyes. You kissed his cheek as a thank you.
“Go,” he said quietly so he wouldn’t cry,
“What?” You asked, matching his quietness.
“Go,” he repeated, this time louder. “Before I change my mind.”
You wanted to kiss him and tell him you’d come back someday, but you knew that you couldn’t promise that. Not with the two of you on opposite sides of this war. So you simply ran towards the hangar, leaving Kylo Ren standing in the empty hallway with his helmet on the ground and tears slipping down his cheeks.

A/N: thank you for putting your age 😭😭 This is a bit diff to the kinks list thing I did, guess I'm in a certain m o o d
Tumblr media
“Gooood girl,” Reki coos as you drop the ball back into his palm. Your hips wiggle at the praise, the tail attached to the buttplug nestled in your ass tickling the back of your thighs as it swings. Reki gently throws the ball to the other side of his workshop. You don’t move, staring adoringly at him.
“Okay, fetch.” Reki gives you permission and you bound over to where the ball is rolling to a halt. You open your mouth to grab the ball, pausing to make sure the ball was firmly in your clutch before heading back to your Master and dropping it by his feet.
“Such a good girl,” Reki tells you, crouching so he could roughly pet your head with both hands. You just wiggle your butt more in happiness. The red haired male leans back, amber eyes flicking up to your now lopsided ears. Strong fingers pull the band back into position, giving your head one last pet. You flop onto your back, showing him your tummy as you pant in response. “I have the cleverest puppy in the entire world.” Reki coos down at you in his baby voice. It has heat burning across your cheeks at how he uses a tone made for animals on you. The heat in between your thighs is molten from it though. He runs a hand down your front, stopping at your dripping pussy and cupping his hand over it. You whine and roll your hips into him, hoping to get some stimulation on your clit.
“Awww, is my puppy girl in heat? Is that why she’s humping my hand like a bitch? Need something inside of you?” Reki asks in a condescending tone. You can only whimper in response, begging him with your brown eyes to help you. Instead, the male stands up and stares down at you.
“Heel.” You roll back onto hands and knees, sidestepping you’re by his heels. Reki gives you a head pat as a reward then strides to the other side where his workbench is located. You keep in line with him, never straying from his heels.
“Such a clever girl. Who’s a clever girl? Are you a clever girl?” Reki asks as he sits down in the chair. Your butt frantically shakes and you let out a few short barks at the words. Reki laughs at how happy you are, resisting the urge to go back to playing with you. He turned the chair back to the table and began tinkering with some skateboard objects. You sit back on your heels, shaking your head just to hear your collar jingle, the heart-shaped pendant with “Reki’s” hitting the material of the collar and your clavicle a few times. For a few minutes, you’re content to just sit and watch your Master work away. Eventually, though you get bored. A hand bats the seated male’s thigh, getting his attention.
“What’s the matter? What does my good girl need?” Reki asks, stopping all his work to give you his full concentration. You turn your head to the small box of toys and make a whining noise. “Go ahead, princess, pick one,” Reki gives you permission, comprehending your noises- it had taken a while to not talk in this headspace but Reki had put so much time and effort into your training that gradually you had gotten better at not talking. Your head tilts to the side as you look at the toys in the box, trying to decide which toy you want. Reki calls your name, a sign to hurry up with the choosing. You pick a blue rubber bone, grabbing it in your jaw and trotting to your Master.
“Whatcha pick?” Reki ask, hand out for you to drop it in. You’re not feeling bratty so immediately let it fall into his waiting palm. Even though at the end of every session Reki cleans all the toys used, he stills reaches into a drawer and gets a wet wipe to clean it, using a tissue to dry it off. Once cleaned and dried he hands it vertically back to you. You jump up onto your knees to grab it, half the toy sticking out of your lips. Reki snorts, the curves at the end of the thin bone making it look like balls and a penis disappearing into your hot mouth. Your head tilts again, confused at why Master was chucking at you. Reki just rubs the top of your head and gets back to his work. You decide your puppy brain is too small to try and understand why he was laughing and instead crawl under the table to lay on the pink cushion Reki had placed.
Having the bone in your mouth makes it even harder than normal to think of anything other than sucking Reki’s long cock. You don't even notice your head starting to bob up and down the long, thin part of the bone until you feel it wobbling. You cage it in between your inner wrists, not even thinking about using your hands with their opposable thumbs. With the additional support, you begin to sink your mouth down the bone. Saliva drips from your lips, making the slide easier. It doesn’t take too many bobs until your lips are wrapped around the bottom of the shaft, your tongue swirling around the rounded bone ends. You rest there for a few moments, eyes rolled back as you relish having something fulling your mouth. A few more butt wiggles escape without you realising; you’re too out of it to even acknowledge that at some point in your blowjob your hips had raised, back arching to show you were ready to be mounted.
“Seems my good girl is more a slut than a good girl,” Reki states. You dart your eyes up, not even bothering to remove the toy, Reki stares down at you, resting his head on one hand. He doesn’t look angry so you wiggle your butt. Your Master sighs and pushes away from the table, one hand snatching a handful of your hair and pulling you towards his crotch. “If you wanted to be a cocksucker you should have told me,” he scolds, one hand managing to undo his belt and pop his button. Your eyes are focused on the bulge straining at the seam of his jeans. The skater lets go of your hair for a few seconds to unzip his flyer and wrestle his trousers down enough to free his dick. Unfortunately, he forgot to account for his over-eager puppy. The moment you felt his hand let go of your hair, you jerk forward and nuzzle his clothed member. A hiss above you indicates that Master enjoyed your actions and you move to rub your cheek against the rough material again but Reki jerks your head back with the back of your collar. You choke for a second but let the male manhandle you into the position he wants.
“So fucking impatient,” Reki mutters under his breath, one hand wrapping around the base of his freed dick. Your tongue lolls out, never breaking eye contact as he slowly pumps his cock. “Sit,” Reki instructs. Immediately, you obey flattening the tops of your feet onto the floor, resting your weight on them then opening your legs. Your hands rest in the space between your knees and you lean forward so you can roll your feet onto their sides to be more comfortable.
“You want to suck my dick? Let it hit the back of your throat?” Reki asks, bringing the hand that had been jerking his shaft to your mouth. Lips opening, Reki shoves his digits in, the salt taste of his precum making your eyes roll back. “Speak if you want to be a useful cocksucker.”
You pull back, sucking in a breath to start begging Reki for permission to suck his cock. A split second before the words tumble out of your spit-covered lips you remember that puppies don’t talk. You bark up at your Master, praying it would be the right thing.
“Go ahead,” Reki tells you. You can’t find it in yourself to be embarrassed at him using his baby voice to order you around. Having sucked the toy and aching to pleasure Reki, you manage to take him all the way down to the base in one go. A few soft curses fall from Reki’s lips; you flick your eyes back up at his knowing how much he loved the sight of you kneeling between his legs, lips wrapped around his dick and your big doe eyes staring at him. Reki rolls his hips, dick inching even further down. The action causes you to gag and pull back a little, Reki’s hand gripping the back of your head allowing you to do so. Thick strands of drool connect your plump lips to the tip of his dick.
Your Master lets you catch your breath for a moment then tugs you back onto his dick. This time his hand is more firm, controlling your movements; when your nose reaches the red curls, your Master keeps you there, groaning at the feel of your throat spasming around the intrusion. You swallow back a gag, Reki jerking his hips up into your mouth at the pleasure. One hand skims up his leg to play with his balls, your tongue sticking out to try and lap them. Reki releases your head and you pull off his dick, wrapping your lips around one and using one hand to massage the other whilst your other hand jerks your boyfriend off. You worship his balls as Reki mutters a mixture of swears and praises, switching to suck on his other testicle and then again to kitten lick his mushroom tip, lapping up the bead of precum.
You can hear Reki edging closer to the edge, the way his pants and moans became louder and more frequent. Your Master uses your collar to pull you off his cock with a popping noise, frantically jerking off in front of you. Your tongue slips out and laps at his tip to give him extra pleasure.
“St-stick your-fuck-tongue out,” Reki tells you breathlessly. You comply without hesitation. The visual of you, on your knees, puppy ears on your head and your tongue sticking out, is the push he needs, spurting cum onto your face and tongue. Reki slouches against the back of the chair, trying to catch his breath. Your tongue remains to stick out, drool dripping from both corners but you ignore it and concentrate on keeping his cum on your tongue.
“What a good girl,” murmurs your Master as he takes in your position, head still leaning back on the chair. “Keeping my cum on her tongue until I tell her to swallow,” you whine in the back of your throat, wanting desperately to do just that. “Go ahead, swallow for me.” You exaggerate the action and open your mouth afterwards. Reki groans appreciatively, a hand lazily stroking your hair. You close your eyes and relax into the sensation, head resting on his thigh. The fire between your legs rages on, hotter than ever, but you’re content for just Reki to get to orgasm. Your eyes snap open when two arms scoop you up and drop you into your Master’s lap.
“Oh, puppy, you really thought I’m not gonna fuck your wet pussy as well?”

Joy in Poision
Characters: Modern AU! Kylo Ren x You
Word Count: 1,008 
Note: Was thinking about this fic for DAYS. Finally had the time to type it all out and I am proud of how it came out! This might be a chaptered thing I revisit, so it’s pretty much just smut for this. It’s short, but to the point! Enjoy!
Contents/Warnings: Biting, light spitting, spanking, slapping, daddy kink, PIV sex, unprotected sex
Tumblr media
Your front door slammed shut, snapping you out of your dead sleep. Your eyebrows furrowed, reaching for the bat next to your bed. Your feet hit the cold floor as you opened your door, ready to beat anyone who stood in your path. You were face to face with a man towering over you and you swung, the bat was caught by him.
“Are you fucking serious?” He asked, gripping the bat in his hand. You rolled your eyes, trying to set the bat down, but he kept it in his grip. Your hands loosened on it, to the point that they were now at your sides. 
It was just Kylo. The guy you had sort of been seeing for months, but definitely had been sexually active with. It was usually like him to show up unannounced, but never this late. You regretted forgetting to lock your door. 
Kylo backed you against the wall behind you. He dropped the bat at his feet, hands finding their way next to your shoulders on the wall. His eyes were dark, and you could tell he was thinking up something in that dirty mind of his. 
“What the fuck are you doing here?” You ask, irritated that he hadn’t said more than that sentence to you. You moved your hands up to push him away from you. In a quick movement, your hands were pinned above you on the wall. He chuckled down at you, leaning down to kiss your jawline once. 
“Kylo, it’s not funny. What the fuck?” Your voice got louder at him. Kylo rolled his eyes, backing away from you for a moment. 
“I thought it would be hot to come over and fuck the shit out of you this late at night.”
You let out a noise riddled with disgust, turning your back on him, about to go back into your bedroom. You felt a hand on your wrist, turning you back to face him. You were pinned back up against the wall, pressing his body up against yours. 
“Fine, whatever, make it quick, idiot,” you spat at him.His fingertips found your jawline, forcefully tilting your head up to look at him. Kylo’s thumb pushed into your mouth, watching you suck on his finger. You bit down on his thumb, watching him wince and pull it out of your mouth quickly. You were greeted with a slap to your cheek, letting out a whimper. Kylo chuckled, slapping you once more. Your hand shot up to rub the sensitive skin, mouth slightly agape. 
“Aw, did that hurt?” He asked you, fake pity dancing in his voice. You rolled your eyes, leaning up to press your lips to his. Kylo’s hands fell to your sides, squeezing at your hips as he bit down at your lip. He pulled it out slightly with his teeth, letting go of it. His hand met your cheek again, forcing your mouth open as he spit inside of your mouth. 
He wasted no more time before getting you into your bedroom. Kylo threw you across the bed, quickly getting both of your clothes off and letting them pool at the ground. He delved two fingers inside of your cunt, making you jolt up slightly, moaning out for him. You back arched up, his fingers were good, but definitely not enough for your aching center. 
“Please, just fuck me already,” you begged out between moans for him. You heard a huffed laugh, his eyebrows furrowing. 
“Does this little whore cunt want to be fucked by daddy?” Kylo asked, eyebrows raised slightly. You nodded quickly, just wanting him to be inside of you already. He chuckled, another slap landing upon your cheeks.
“Yes or no?” 
“Y-yes,” you breathed. 
A slap to your center.
“Yes, who?” Kylo asked, letting the question ring out for a few seconds before you responded.
“Yes, daddy,” you whined out. 
Without much other warning, Kylo was inside of you. Both of you letting out a groan, your hands found his shoulders. You attempted to pull him down to your  level to kiss you, but it earned a hand on your throat, so you couldn’t have too much free will anymore. He leaned down, biting at your shoulder enough to leave a mark. 
Your hand fell on his wrist, digging your nails into his flesh. He sucked in a breath, clearly pained a bit by the feeling. Kylo’s grip tightened on you, making it especially hard to breathe now. Your hand on his shoulder scratched him up, causing him to fuck you faster. 
Your shared moans and swears filled the air, legs wrapped around his hips as he pounded into you. You could feel his grip loosen, and you could tell there might be a mark or two on your neck from his hand. Kylo’s hands moved to your hips, his thrusts speeding up a bit more.
“I’m close,” you whined, “daddy, please.”
You begged out, and his fingers fell onto your clit, sending you over the edge. You clenched around him, causing him to groan out. You felt him coat your insides, head hanging slightly as his hips stalled. 
It took him a few minutes before pulling out, falling next to you. You went to touch him, to cuddle into him, and within a few minutes he was getting up and standing in front of you again.
“Aren’t you going to stay?” You asked, watching him get dressed. Kylo looked back at you, buckling his belt. He looked at the clock, then back to you and shook his head. You pouted a bit, running a hand through your hair.
“Why the hell do I wanna stay with you?” He retorted, a small grin on his lips. He probably wanted to, but he enjoyed making you thirsty for him too much. In a way, you both liked the chase. He leaned down, pressing a kiss to your lips, nibbling at your lower lip one last time. 
You watched Kylo fade into the doorway, and you didn’t see him again for another few days.

2k; NSFW (skinny dipping, public nudity, sex in water)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bobbing ever so gently with the current of the river, you breathe in deeply, feeling the warm air of summer fill your lungs, your chest expanding and deflating in a rhythm dictated by the breeze. It it late in the afternoon, and soon you will be expected to return to the throne room, but you still have some time.
Intent on using that time to the fullest of capacities, you lay atop the water, your arms and legs spread out as your hair floats in a great halo around your head. Yes, you think as you breathe, smiling a little as the current whooshes in a calm push past you, you are quite content.
Until that is, a pair of strong arms grab you, making you splutter and snap out of your reverie at once, baring your teeth to whomever has dared disturb your relaxation.
“Unhand me at once or I shall -- !” You start, heart pounding in your chest, a million thoughts running through your mind as you think of the quickest way to incapacitate your captor...
Before you recognize the deep rumbling laughter that comes from the direction of your captor’s chest, and you sigh with fond exasperation, knowing he is not a captor at all.
“You really must learn to pay more attention, my pearl.” Kylo grins with all his crooked teeth, as if he has won some great victory in catching you off guard.
Oh, but he has, won a victory of a different kind. He is home early and the confident attitude he is positively brimming with tells you that it was an early win, another battle claimed by the Empire that you know and love.
You find that you cannot be angry with him for surprising you like this, for it is in his very nature, the element of sneaky silent surprise. So instead, you allow the joy at your husband’s return to fill you, as you throw your arms around his neck and kiss him for all that you’re worth, grinning with your own indulgent happiness.
“Swoon, don’t worry I’ll catch you.” The cheeky bastard teases you, and you can only chuckle brightly at the good mood that he is in. It is rare for him to be so good-spirited, he tended to scowl even on the best of days. But today was a day for celebration, and you have no intention to stop him now.
“Insufferable, you are,” Rolling your eyes teasingly right back, before shaking your head and kissing him again, and again, and again, your body pressing to his as you hum, “But so handsome. I missed you, your highness.”
“Here I am.” He murmurs against your mouth, his teeth nipping at your lower lip, hands not once letting you go as he holds you to him.
“Finally.” You agree with a sigh of relief.
Kylo looks at you then, really looks at you, and it’s the sort of look that makes you hold your breath in heady anticipation, as his chest puffs with deep panting breaths of his own. You wish you could see him free of all his many layers, knowing that the sight would be divine.
And then, almost as if on cue, Kylo decides he does not want to be confined by his clothing any longer, and he pulls away from you to begin stripping down. You grin, perching yourself on a large smooth rock that juts up from the pebbles and sand of the river floor, watching as he reveals himself to you.
His armor comes off in large sections, and he takes care to rest them on the bank of the river. It’s not a very wide river thankfully, so he doesn’t have to go too far. Next comes his tunic, and then his shirt, before he can struggle to shuck off his hose and boots. In just a few short moments, he is completely nude, and my what a marvel it is to see him in the light of day like this, you think.
You yourself are wearing your chemise, a small barrier between your naked body and the elements around you. It does nothing to hide the shape of you though, as the cotton goes completely transparent when wet. It is that transparency that has Kylo’s mouth watering, you find, when he surges back to wrap you up in his arms again, and you feel the hard length of his cock pressing against your stomach.
“Fuck, Kylo, here?” You look around with a giddy laugh, surprised by his lack of care for being so exposed.
“Why not, we are rulers of this domain, why should we not indulge in our pleasure wherever we’d like?” Kylo replies with another searing hot kiss, the muscles in his arms flexing as he presses you close to him.
You kiss him back, and before you know it, he’s lifting you up with the help of the water, bracing you against that large smooth rock once more, and pushing up the wet chemise that clings to your body. Helping him with a moan, you manage to lift it up enough to expose all the way up to your stomach, and without wasting much more time, your husband guides the head of his aching hard cock to your cunt.
“Oh how I have missed the feeling of being so full.” Your head lolls back on the makeshift pillow as he pushes in, a happy sigh of pleasure breathing out of your lungs.
The way Kylo fucks you is animalistic in moments like these -- his instincts take over, the primal urge to be close to you, to be inside you, it consumes him, and in turn, he consumes you. With a hand on your throat to hold you steady, Kylo bites and licks into your mouth, his hips wasting no time to begin thrusting in and out of your wanting pussy, your moans filling the air around you, carried down the river by the breeze.
“Kylo! Oh my darling, more, please give me more!” You cry out, the pleasure immediate and so, so delicious.
He doesn’t say much, doesn’t say anything at all, just grunts out his pleasure as his mouth covers yours completely, sucks down all your moans sighs pants grunts of pleasure, swallows them the way your cunt sucks in his cock, a vice grip, not wanting to let go.
It’s been weeks since you’ve last seen him, which means it’s been weeks since you’ve been properly fucked, and he knows that just as well as you. Holding your hips tight to keep them steady, he fucks you hard, fucks you with all the pent up sexual frustration he’s harbored over the time and distance between you.
You can feel the way his cock presses itself as deep as it can go, you whine as it knocks against your cervix, the force of his hips pushing you up up up the rock, your hands gripping his shoulders, fingers digging in the muscle there as you throw your head back and plead, panting, begging for him to take you harder, faster.
Kylo does, oh he does, touching you all over your body, stimulating you from every possible point. His hands leave your hips, one moves farther down your body to press his thumb against your swollen clit, eliciting a yelp of pleasure from your throat. The other reaches up to pinch and roll a nipple, feeling for the stiff bud from over your chemise where the wet cloth has clung to it.
It doesn’t satisfy him though, and so wordlessly, with all his strength he tears your chemise right in two, and you gasp, the sudden feeling of river water and his hard hot body pressing down on your bare skin. Kylo kisses all across your chest, sucking and biting in his wake, the newly exposed flesh begging to be marked.
“Yes, right there, oh please right there -- more!” You demand, and he’s all too happy to oblige, as he holds you down, pins you to the best of his ability, grinding his hips against yours on long thick drags of his cock.
Your hips lift, back arching off the rock, as your moans and whimpers grow more and more desperate. You’re so close, this close to coming, your body begins to tremble with the want of it. Oh how long had you waited for this feeling, you pant and writhe beneath him, as his cock drags against that spot inside you that has you seeing stars.
“Please, I’m so close, just a little more, please darling!” You can taste it, the edge of adrenaline in the back of your throat, on your tongue. Kylo knows exactly how to push you over, and he puts all his concentration into it, into getting the timing right.
When he rubs your clit in just the right way, his cock brushing up against your spot once, twice, three times, your body snaps up with sharp pleasure, and you shout loud enough that it scares the birds away from the bushes on the bank of the river. Kylo fucks you through your orgasm, making you moan loud loud loud, the pleasure overwhelming as he speeds his pace up.
Sometimes he’ll drag it out long enough that you can come a couple times on his cock before he spills inside of you, but you know he must be tired from the long journey home, so when he grunts and groans against your throat only a few minutes after, before finally going still, you only smile, glad that he too has come.
He begins to kiss you then, kissing you with an urgency that has you confused in your blissful state. Kylo crushes you ever so slightly, not wanting to move away just yet, and while you’re not complaining, you do have to ask,
“What is the matter?” You pant against him as his body is a solid weight against you.
Kylo is quiet for a moment, and you feel the current of the river washing away all the come and slick, carrying it away off to heavens knows where, cleansing you of this sweaty filthy act. You are almost compelled to ask again, but you know better, and that he will reply when he has the words.
Kissing you again, he tries to press these words into your very being, gentle with you yes, but still an edge of danger, of desire that he cannot shake. You kiss him back, letting yourselves let the water rush over your bodies, simply being together for a few moments more.
“You have bewitched me, body and soul...and I love,” Kylo punctuates these words with more kisses, soft and gentle atop your lips, across your face, “I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you.”
Oh how your heart beats for this man, you can’t help but think, for even after fucking you so hard that you can barely see straight, you can see how dearly he cares for you.
“Then by my side you shall remain.” You nuzzle your nose against his, and he only presses his hard cock deeper into your warm cunt in response. Smiling with bliss and joy, you card Kylo’s hair away from his face and kiss him, whispering, “There is a banquet prepared for you, a grand feast. After the performance you just gave, I’m sure you are hungry for it.”
“In a moment.” He turns to press a kiss to your palm, before hoisting you off of the rock, pulling you to his chest, encouraging your legs to wrap around his hips, “Let me hold you a while longer, just a little while.”
Resting your head on his shoulder, you let him do just that, until the water of the river turns chilly as the late afternoon sun moves across the sky. You would stay like that with him for all eternity, should he desire so, for with him so near, you know there’s nowhere else you’d rather be.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tagging some Kylo lovin' friends!

I’ve talked about this before, but I need to emphasize that Zuko working in the tea shop is a huge part of his arc and development. It wasn’t just something that lasted only a few episodes that he hated and then moved on from, it’s something that is threaded throughout his arc and into the finale. 
Of course he’s not happy for a large part of the time he’s working there in book two. He’s a traumatized teenager who is desperately trying to achieve the approval of his father so that he can go back to the home he was banished from. Iroh tries to make the best of things in part because Iroh genuinely enjoys it and making the best of a bad situation is just who he is, but he also wants Zuko to be happy and wants to make the best life for his nephew that he can, and he knows that Zuko needs positivity and security in his life, as well as tries to nurture in Zuko an appreciation for the small things in life and an attitude of service. It is hardly surprising that Zuko is resistant to this, though.
Tumblr media
Zuko complains even more when he and Iroh are presented with new opportunities, because he doesn’t want to accept the possibility of growth in this new life.
Iroh: Did you hear, nephew? This man wants to give us our own tea shop in the Upper Ring of the city!
Quon: That's right, young man, your life is about to change for the better!
Zuko: [Sarcastically.] I'll try to contain my joy. [Walks outside, slams door shut.]
Tumblr media
Zuko spends seven episodes working in the tea shop in a twenty episode season. It runs through his entire Ba Sing Se arc. He grumbles, groans, and complains through most of it.
Iroh: So, I was thinking about names for my new tea shop. How about the Jasmine Dragon? It's dramatic, poetic, has a nice ring to it.
Zuko: [Shows Iroh the flyer.] The Avatar is here in Ba Sing Se and he's lost his bison.
Iroh: [Grabs the flyer.] We have a chance for a new life here. [Cut to Zuko looking out a window.] If you start stirring up trouble, we could lose all the good things that are happening for us.
Zuko: [Turns to Iroh.] Good things that are happening for you! Have you ever thought that I want more from life than a nice apartment and a job serving tea?
Iroh: There is nothing wrong with a life of peace and prosperity. I suggest you think about what it is that you want from your life and why.
Zuko: I want my destiny.
Iroh: What that means is up to you. 
Tumblr media
Zuko’s time in the tea shop is part of his arc of discovering that he can choose his own destiny, and although he didn’t choose to live as a refugee, he can choose what he makes of it, which is what Iroh is trying to teach him here. Part of that is choosing to accept Iroh’s love, choosing to appreciate the good things instead of wishing for something that he doesn’t have, and we know that Zuko’s desire to go back to being the prince of the Fire Nation and earn his father’s affection is ultimately empty, and part of a life where he was abused, as well as where he was a part of a system that was oppressing others.
Then Zuko refuses Iroh’s advice about accepting a simple life in favor of pursuing Appa as the Blue Spirit - an identity that represents Zuko’s internal conflict between his fractured self image, which in book two involves him using the Blue Spirit identity to steal, to get back a part of the old life which he’s lost. It is extremely painful for him to admit that trying to get back to who he was before his banishment is causing him to engage in self-destructive behaviors that are stagnating his growth. Iroh just wants him to be safe and happy but he also knows that Zuko has to confront this conflict within himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That’s why, after he frees Appa, he must throw away the Blue Spirit mask once and for all, symbolically letting go of his desire to go back to the Fire Nation.
Iroh: You did the right thing, nephew. Leave it behind.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Giving up the past is never easy. Especially giving up the ideas he’s held onto for so long, the idea of what he can one day get back that, as Iroh said in book one, had kept Zuko going through his banishment, that gave him hope. But part of creating your own destiny is realizing that you can find hope in places you didn’t think you could find it. Zuko has to find something else to put his hope in and that’s represented physically by the sickness he suffers after freeing Appa. His entire sense of self has been shaken to the core, because change, real change, is hard.
Iroh: You should know that this is not a natural sickness, but that shouldn't stop you from enjoying tea.
Zuko: What's happening?
Iroh: Your critical decision. What you did beneath that lake. It was in such conflict with our image of yourself that you are now at war within your own mind and body. 
Zuko: What's that mean?
Iroh: You are going through a metamorphosis, my nephew. It will not be a pleasant experience, but when you come out of it, you will be the beautiful prince you were always meant to be.
Tea even makes an appearance during Zuko’s “metamorphosis,” because the tea is symbolic, y’all. Then when Zuko wakes up from his sickness, we see an immediate change in him.
Iroh: Now that your fever is gone, you seem different somehow.
Zuko: [Optimistically.] It's a new day. We've got a new apartment, new furniture, and today's the grand opening of your new tea shop. Things are looking up, Uncle.
Tumblr media
This doesn’t necessarily mean that Zuko has suddenly decided that he loves serving tea and working customer service, but the change he’s experienced is about choosing to find the good, to accept change into his life, to accept humility, and love. And this is the most happy we’ve ever seen Zuko be. We also see him emotionally supporting Iroh and working on his relationship with his uncle because he knows that seeing Zuko happy makes Iroh happy. Before, Zuko made a big show of his unhappiness, slamming doors and frowning and shouting and generally acting like a spoiled teenager with major authority issues, which made Iroh visibly upset. Iroh constantly tries to get Zuko to change his attitude but in the end it’s something that Zuko has to choose himself.
Iroh: Who thought when we came to this city as refugees, that I'd end up owning my own tea shop? Follow your passion, Zuko, and life will reward you.
Zuko: Congratulations, Uncle.
Iroh: I am very thankful.
Zuko: You deserve it. The Jasmine Dragon will be the best tea shop in the city.
Iroh: No. I'm thankful because you decided to share this special day with me. It means more than you know.
Zuko: Now let's make these people some tea! 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is more than just Zuko being happy for Iroh or trying to be happy because Iroh wants him to be happy. We see the idea repeated here that you can choose your own destiny, and that those who do are rewarded by life. This is also echoed in Zuko’s conversation with Katara in which he tells her that lately he has realized that he is free to choose what he makes of the scars of his past, and his future. We also see him practicing what Iroh told him, he lets go of shame by letting go of pride. Instead of talking about what he thinks he deserves, he talks about what Iroh deserves. The dialogue also indicates that Zuko chose to be there.
This development is emphasized when Zuko and Iroh are invited to serve tea to the Earth King.
Iroh: I ... I can't believe it!
Zuko: What is it, Uncle?
Iroh: Great news! We've been invited to serve tea to the Earth King!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Zuko goes from “step aside, filth!” and complaining about doing work to smiling about serving tea to the king of a rival nation. That’s character development. And as I said before, it was essential to Zuko’s development in becoming the kind of Fire Lord that he is supposed to be.
The dramatic irony of Katara finding them and unintentionally ratting them out to Azula is that when Katara enters the tea shop, she finds not only a Zuko in a tea apron, but a happy one enthusiastically taking people’s orders.
Zuko: Uncle! I need two jasmine, one green, and one lychee!
Iroh: I'm brewing as fast as I can!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love this scene so much because it’s like, imagine that you decide to go to Panera Bread and you find Kylo Ren working at the counter, cheerfully asking you if you want chips or an apple with that. It’s also hilarious that Katara’s immediate thought is they’re infiltrating the city when she knows that there’s an evil force of brainwashing government agents lurking about.
That Zuko genuinely found peace with his life in Ba Sing Se is narratively important because it makes what happens next even harder for him. “The Crossroads of Destiny” is a true crossroads because he’s fought hard to find happiness and hope in his new life, but then it’s all ripped away and he’s put to the test. That he fails it this time just emphasizes how hard it is to break free of old destructive habits.
This is why when he does go back to the Fire Nation, we’re shown his doubts, and how uncomfortable he is. He tries to be happy and to accept his role as prince, but he already knows that this is not the destiny he wants for himself. The excessive opulence of the Fire Nation is meant to show this. We see this in scenes like Zuko constantly being unhappy during the beach episode and becoming angry when he is told to relax and do nothing, and his insecurity at the party in a room full of rich kids. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In particular, we see him being uncomfortable being waited on by servants in “Nightmares and Daydreams”:
Servant #1: Fresh fruit, Prince Zuko?
Zuko puts out his hand and shakes his head respectfully.
Servant #2: May I wash your feet, sir?
Zuko respectfully puts his hand out and shakes his head again.
Servant #1: Head massage?
Zuko shakes his head again.
Servant #2: Hot towel?
Zuko looks at the towels for a moment and takes one. He is seen wiping his forehead before walking out of the room. The two servants bow behind him. Zuko walks out the palace gates, with Fire Nation citizens waiting for him.
Servant #1: Prince Zuko, is something wrong? You didn't take the palanquin.
Zuko: I'm just going to Mai's house. It's not far.
Servant #1: It's not a prince's place to walk anywhere, sir.
Zuko looks to the distance, walks over, and gets into the palanquin.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We see him trying to fit in with Mai because he’s a sixteen year old who has a girlfriend for the first time in his life and he wants to impress her, but what this scene actually shows is their differing values.
Zuko: Tell me, if you could have anything you want right now, what would it be?
Mai: Hm ... A big fancy fruit tart, with rose petals on top.
Zuko: You know, being a prince and all, I might just be able to make that happen.
Mai: That would be impressive.
Zuko: [To the servants.] Do you think you could find a fresh fruit tart for the lady, with rose petals on top?
Servant: Excellent choice, sir.
Mai: I guess there's some nice perks that come with being royalty. [Pushing Zuko to lay down with her.] Though there's annoying stuff, too. Like that all-day war meeting coming up.
Zuko: [Sitting up, followed by Mai.] War meeting? What are you talking about?
Mai: Azula mentioned something. I-I assumed you were going, too.
Zuko: I guess I wasn't invited.
The two look away from each other.
Tumblr media
Zuko asks Mai what she would want if she could have anything and what she comes up with is fruit tarts. This doesn’t necessarily mean that Mai is shallow, but what it does mean is that she’s never had to worry about what she wants in terms of the big picture.
“Who are you, and what do you want?”
She’s also never had to go hungry like Zuko has, and never had to serve others like Zuko has.
And then she brings up the war meeting, which to her is only an annoyance. Zuko doesn’t care about fruit tarts and palanquin rides, but this is something he cares about. It’s also funny to me that Mai is like “make out time,” and let’s be real, nobody would fault Zuko, a sixteen year old boy, for enjoying a little hanky panky, but Zuko is like “no, anxiety time!” Which shows how much he’s changed and how much he is struggling to be happy despite all the fruit tarts and hot towels and having a girlfriend who is all over him.
It is NOT a coincidence that when Zuko joins the gaang, we see him genuinely happy and among friends and making and serving tea.
Tumblr media
Zuko had to go back to the Fire Nation to really understand how much he had changed and to really be able to choose his own destiny, but we know which one he chooses, between a life of empty riches and a life helping others. Even when we see him addressing the people as Fire Lord, his speech is all about service and humility. When the crowd cheers for him, he does this:
Zuko: Please. The real hero is the Avatar.
Tumblr media
Which shows how far he’s come from the boy who so desperately wanted recognition, who was repulsed by the idea of serving others or lowering himself to the status of a “peasant,” who only thought of himself and what he deserved. His last scene is not his coronation, not his triumphant moment of standing in front of a crowd as Fire Lord, or even confronting his father, but a quiet moment, serving tea to his friends.

Miscalculation
Hey cuties! So, I have started writing fanfiction! I have been posting on both AO3 and Wattpad. Both links are in my linktree in my bio! But, I’d like to share my first one-shot here. Let me know what you all think!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let's be honest, The Finalizer is boring.
Not a, "Oh, it's a calm day with nothing to do, kind of boring." But more like, "I'm trapped on a steel death ship in the vacuum less mass of space" kind of boring.
Okay maybe that's because you are trapped. You have been trapped for what feels like months. In reality, it's been a few weeks and you're really close to going insane.
It was a small error that landed you here. A tiny miscalculation that landed you on the path of Snoke's little apprentice. Should you have double checked to make sure you had enough fuel to get back to D'Qar? Yes. Did you? No. Instead you waste your credits on some shitty fried food at the docking station on Coruscant and take off. This leaves you stranded on Jakku. Luck was clearly on your side that day because this was the exact day Snoke's dog sent his bitches out on a mission. There you are, in your X-Wing with what seems like the biggest bullseye on you.
It doesn't take them long to sniff you out. You're ripped out of the cockpit by a knight in an all black mask with long shields placed on either side. The knight drops you to the ground and you can immediately see you're outnumbered. Six large armored men have circled you. Okay, so the blaster you're pointing at the one who man-handled you probably wasn't going to do shit. But that doesn't stop you from holding your ground.
"I am not afraid to shoot. I will blast you all right now."
This earns a chuckle from the group. That first knight speaks up.
"You're stranded on this sand pile with no fuel. I doubt you have enough plasma to shoot half of us."
You huff at his comment but stand your ground, keeping the blaster pointed at him.
"Trudgen, just grab her and let's get back to the mission. Master can decide what to do with her."
You take note of that fucker's name as two of the other knights haul you up by your arms roughly. You're dragged to the ugliest ship you've ever seen in your life and thrown in a dingy compartment.
"We'll be back rebel scum. Don't try anything." Trudgen said as he placed your blaster on his belt. Not like he has enough weapons strapped to his body or anything. You roll your eyes and try to sit in a spot that isn't covered in dust.
"No promises."
And that's how you ended up on the Finalizer. You made the journey here hell for the knights. You did eventually learn the rest of their names after eavesdropping on their conversations. When you arrived Vicrul and Ap'lek placed your hands in binders and led you to an interrogation room. After you were strapped into the interrogation chair the knights made their way to leave.
"Uh, excuse me? Where the fuck are you guys going? You can't just strapped me in to this stupid chair, way too tightly might I add, and then leave without saying anything!"
Vicrul and Ap'lek share a look and then turn towards you.
"We aren't the ones interrogating you, scum. Master is interested in you." Vicrul says, shrugging his shoulders.
"I have no idea why. Not much to be interested in." Ap'lek mutters as he turns to leave again.
You rolled your eyes as both knights leave the room. So you would be getting the honor of meeting Snoke's apprentice. Wonderful. From what you learned being in the Resistance, Kylo Ren was an overgrown toddler with a laser sword. So the likelihood of you coming out of this interrogation alive was small.
You probably sit strapped to that stupid chair for hours before Commander Ren decides to stroll on in. He comes through the door swiftly, feet pounding on the ground loudly. He stops in front of you and gives you a quick once-over. The mask finally meets your eyes.
"Are we just going to stare at each other? Or are we going to get this over with?"
Kylo ball his hands into fists and begins to circle the interrogation chair.
"I don't think you are in any position to ask questions right now. What were you doing on Jakku?"
"Your little boy band didn't fill you in already? I got stranded on that shitty planet. Didn't exactly go there by choice."
He stops in front of you again.
"And why did you get stranded?"
You immediately think back to your little error. You feel even more stupid looking back on it. Admitting to it is not something you were looking to do right now. What the fuck was the point of this? Was he really just going to ask you trivial questions? You figured Snoke would have taught him better than this if he's really so powerful.
Kylo leans down quickly, grabbing the sides of the chair by your head. The sudden movement makes you jump, wrists smacking against the restraints.
"I can hear all of your thoughts. It would be wise to watch what you think. Now answer the question."
Of course he can hear your thoughts. He's a fucking force user. Rookie mistake on your part really. But the idea of him actually hearing every thought you think does unnerve you.
"I ran out of fuel. Had to make an emergency landing, okay? Is that answer good enough for you?"
Kylo finally leans back up. He stares down at you and even though he's wearing that stupid fucking mask you can just tell he's got a judgemental look on his face.
"What kind of pilot runs out of fuel?"
You begin to argue back but he stops you.
"Not a very good one. A good pilot would have checked that they had enough fuel to get to their next destination. A good pilot wouldn't have spent all of their credits."
"Listen you fu-"
"A good pilot would have landed near a fueling station, not in the middle of nowhere. But I guess that's my point. You aren't a good pilot. Another useless member of the Resistance. So breaking you down is going to be easier than I thought."
All you could do was stare at him. He read your thoughts. He already knew everything. He wanted to embarrass you, make you feel small. It worked for a second. But if you were going to die today, you weren't going to give him the satisfaction of seeing your embarrassment.
You square your jaw and look right into the eyes of his mask.
"That's where you're wrong, buddy."
Kylo leans down so his mouthpiece is by your ear and whispers, "We'll see about that, little one."
He stands back up and stomps out of the room quickly. Leaving you feeling shocked, angry, and oddly aroused.
____________________________
So to everyone's surprise you did not die that day. Instead Kylo had you placed in a cell and that's where you've been for weeks. Stormtroopers come and feed you or take you to a refresher to bathe. Commander Ren has stopped by a few times since your original meeting. Nothing much has come of those ones either. Mostly him staring at you and asking trivial questions. Which just agitates you.
You can't seem to figure him out. He hasn't asked anything regarding the Resistance. What is the point of keeping you prisoner if he isn't going to get any useful information from you? It doesn't sit well with you.
When he doesn't visit you're left alone. Staring at the same four walls does get boring eventually. You've taken to sitting near the door and trying to listen to the stormtroopers conversations. Sometimes bucket heads spill some interesting tea. You learned last week that General Hux once got a boner after getting choked by the Commander.
That's what you're doing currently. Listening to the chatter when you suddenly hear the distinct pounding of boots. The last you knew, the Commander was away on a mission with the knights. As the footsteps draw closer you move quickly to your feet and back away from the door. Kylo strides through the door, chest heaving and fists clenched. You can feel the anger rolling off of him. So you're guessing his little adventure didn't go so well.
His hand flies up quickly, using the force to choke you.
"How many times do I have to tell you to watch your thoughts?"
Okay, so he heard you. You really gotta work on monitoring that. Wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of a toddler tantrum.
Just as the thought crosses your mind you're dragged across the floor towards Kylo. Your toes just barely touching the ground as you move. His hand wraps around your throat and he leans his masked face down into your own.
"I've given you far too many warnings. Now you're going to be punished."
Your eyes go wide as you look up into the soulless mask. This is it. This is where you die. You're going to die at the hands of this fucker and even worse, you're turned on.
Kylo spins you around and pins you to the wall. He kicks your feet apart using his boot, shoving his knee between your legs. You feel his thigh rub against your core. It takes all your self control to stop yourself from grinding down on it. He can feel the arousal pouring from your body.
He pulls his hand from your neck and leans back.
"I'm afraid you're enjoying this too much, little one."
You take a deep breath to steady yourself, to no prevail of course. You can feel your heart hammering in your chest. But the anger from this whole situation has begun to build. You're sick and tired of being in this cell. You're enraged by his trivial fucking questioning. And now, he's teasing you. You've had enough of it. You are not going to be his toy.
"I'm not enjoying anything. Im stuck in this stupid cell guarded by bucket heads. You've done nothing but ask me useless fucking questions. What is the point of this? Why keep me around if I have no use?"
You watch as he reaches up quickly and yanks the mask off. You weren't sure what you were expecting. But it wasn't that. When you imagined the Commander of the First Order, you pictured some burnt deformed old man. Not a hot ass guy with perfect fucking hair.
He throws the mask off to the side and glares down at you.
"You've certainly got a use and now you're going to fulfill it."
Suddenly, you feel the most glorious swirling against your clit. You gasp and try to squirm away from him. He pins you harder against the wall and begins kissing up your neck. You begin to feel the pressure building just as he starts to remove your shirt.
"Fuck, I don't know what you're doing. But don't stop." You pant out.
Just as the words leave your mouth the swirling stops.
"What the actual fuck?"
"You didn't think I'd just let you cum, did you? This is a punishment."
That is the final straw. You were so close to ecstasy. So close to release. You have had enough of this little twat. You collect yourself and use all the strength you can to push him away from you.
"Enough fucking games. I'm not some toy to be played with. Either show me the reason I'm still here or kill me already!"
Commander Ren is quick. If you weren't aware of his position, you'd think he was a bounty hunter with how fast he can move. So fast in fact, that he has you pinned face down on your shitty cot before you can think. You're bent over with your hands held in his fist behind you. You try to squirm but only end up grinding your ass back into him. Either that's his lightsaber or he's really excited to see you.
"Who is the general of the Resistance?"
The question catches you off guard. Why the fuck is he asking you his trivial questions now? Of all fucking times. He certainly knows the answer to this one, so what's the point of this?
You must have been stuck in your thoughts for too long, because a strong slap comes across your left ass cheek. The sound echoes throughout the tiny cell and you're certain the stormtroopers outside heard it.
"Answer the question."
"Uh, General Organa. She's your mom, right?"
Stupid response. He grabs a fist full of your hair and yanks your head back. He growls in your ear, "I would advise you shut the fuck up. Stop being a little brat and cooperate or this will only get worse."
Kylo releases your hair and holds you down with the force. He yanks down your pants, revealing your slick soaked panties to the room. Kylo looks down and smirks.
"You're drenched. Bent over and pussy wet for the enemy. What kind of pilot would do that?"
He lands another hard slap to your right cheek this time. Giving it a small kneed afterwards.
"Oh that's right. Not a very good one."
You try to move against the force hold but it's no use. He's got the upper hand here. But you're not going to let him degrade you like that.
"That's rich coming from Snoke's little bitch."
His fist is back in your hair and his other grabs your hip, pulling you back against him. He grinds himself into you and groans out, "You're going to regret that, little one."
Kylo pulls himself away enough to pull down your panties. You feel his gloved finger glide through your slick down to your bundle of nerves. You gasp and wiggle your hips back towards him trying to gain more friction.
"What is your squadron?"
Not this bullshit again. He's playing with your pussy and asking you these dumbass questions? He pulls his hand away and lands a slap to your pussy, causing your legs to shake.
"I hate repeating myself, so answer the fucking question."
Your head is spinning and your pussy is clenching around nothing. You have no clue what the point of these questions are but you'll do anything to get him to touch you again.
"Blue Squadron! Fuck."
Kylo's hand comes back to you, this time bare. He begins rubbing slow circles around your nub, applying the perfect amount of pressure.
"Now that's a good girl. Keep answering your Commander and you'll get rewarded."
"You're not my fucking commander." You gasp as he inserts two thick fingers into your needy hole. "My commander is Poe Dameron."
You realize what you've said after it's too late. It's not exactly classified information. But it's certainly not something you should be sharing with the enemy. You've got to get it together if you're going to make it through this little visit.
"Dameron, hm? Interesting."
You hear the sound of his belt buckle and zipper coming undone. He releases his long, girthy cock from the confines of his pants. It lands on your ass as Kylo grabs hold of both your hips.
"Are you ready for your punishment? I'm going to destroy this little cunt."
You arch your back, pushing your ass up. "I really doubt that. But you can try."
With our warning, Kylo buries his whole length in your wet heat. You gasp as he knocks the air out of your lungs, taking you by surprise. He begins thrusting into you at a slow pace, taking his time. You can feel every glorious inch of him, from tip to hilt.
You moan out and wiggle your hips, trying to get him to speed up. "If you're going to punish me, you'll have to try harder than this."
He snarls at your comment, squeezing your hips and picking up the pace. The little cell is filled with the sounds of your breathy moans, his grunts, and skin slapping. You get so lost in the pleasure you nearly miss him speaking to you.
"Where is the Resistance base?"
You almost answer. You almost let that information slide, forgetting where you are and whose cock is buried inside you. But then it all clicks. He's trying to distract you for information. Nice fucking try Commander Cunt.
"Fuck off."
Kylo grunts and releases one of your hips to instead grab a fistful of your hand. He yanks your head back and forces your back to arch further, making his cock reach deeper inside your pussy. Kylo begins pounding into you, each thrust hitting your sweet spot.
"Where the fuck is the Resistance base?"
Your moans are loud at this point. You couldn't care less about the stormtroopers outside hearing you. This all feels too good. But you aren't going to give in to him this easy. The resistance is counting on you. You are not some weak pilot that gives in to this moody bitch.
"Fuck. Off." You moan out in response.
Kylo's other hand leaves your hip and snakes down your front. He begins rubbing fast circles against your clit. You scream as you feel the pressure beginning to build again.
"Tell me where the fucking base is, pet."
You scream out in pleasure and frustration. You're so close. Just teetering on the edge. You so badly want to let go. So you crack.
"Fuck! Fine! D'Qar! The resistance base is on D'Qar! Please just let me come! Please!"
Kylo smirks, knowing he's won. He picks up the pace on your clit and groans out, "That's right, now be a good girl and cum all over my cock."
That was all you needed. You screamed in ecstasy, "Yes, fuck Kylo!"
Your pussy clenched around him as you came, your juices covering him. Kylo grunted, fucking you through your orgasm.
Soon after you came down from your high, you felt his cock twitch inside you. Kylo quickly pulled out of you and yanked you up by your hair.
"On your knees and mouth open, rebel bitch."
You quickly dropped to your knees and did just as he said, closing your eyes. Kylo pumped his cock over your face, using your slick and cum as lube. He threw his head back and let out a feral groan. Strings of his milky seed covering your face.
Once he was finished, you swallow what had gotten in your mouth and began wiping the rest off your face, licking it from your fingers. Fuck he tastes delicious. When you could finally open your eyes, he was already by the door. He had tucked himself away and put his glove back on. Kylo grabbed his helmet and looked back at you.
"Just as I thought. You're a useless Resistance member. So easy to destroy."
You sit there stunned by his words, letting everything that had just happened sink in.
"It has been fun breaking you, little one."
With one last look, Kylo places his helmet back on his head and walks out of the cell.
You stare at the door and replay his words. Maybe you were a shitty Resistance member. Others probably wouldn't have broken that easily, or at all. But with some of his cum drying on your face and a satisfied feeling, you can't find it in you to care.
You're secretly hoping Commander Ren needs more information. You might come to enjoy his little visits.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hope everyone enjoyed! If you all are interested, I can post on here more. Let me know!

After that gorgeous sequel rant, would you be willing to share your thoughts on reylo?
Ugh.
Once again, that is the most succinct, easiest, answer I can supply. But it's so short, and that just won't do.
I mentioned in a recent post that Dramione comes in a myriad of disguises. Every fandom usually has at least one Dramione ship, you can usually guess which characters the ship will consist of, and while you might not be able to articulate exactly what about it makes it so damn similar to Dramione you will recognize it on sight.
Usually, to me, a Dramione ship features a strong, independent, female lead who may be varying levels of sexually empowered, varying levels of intelligent (Hermione loves to tell us how smart she is but it's not the heart of the ship), is strong, courageous, and noble who depending on the story du jour might slide into depravity.  The real give away is her love interest, always a man, usually a young man of comparable age, who has the bad boy appeal that's not too bad boy where he often is redeemed to the good side for 'reasons' in the course of the story.
Reylo is such a Dramione pairing.
You don't believe me? Look at the authors who write it, I haven't done this too often myself, but I guarantee you that a not small majority of them will either write Draco/Hermione or will have it all over their favorites and bookmarks. It's the same damn pairing.
But worse.
Because Kylo-Ren and Rey aren't really characters.
"Whoa, hold up!", you say, "That's just slander and uncalled for!" Well, change my mind. Rey Palpatine and Kylo-Ren are a series of character tropes and archetypes thrown to us by Disney screaming "LOVE MY CHARACTERS".
Rey is our noble, very Luke like, hero who is a scrappy desert rat with overwhelming mystical powers only acknowledged when the movies feel like acknowledging them (guys, admit Rey kicked Kylo-Ren's ass every time they fought with 0 training, come on, it's not hard).
However, there is nothing underneath her surface. Her hero worship of the resistance feels dull and given to her because it's expected. Of course Rey likes the resistance! The resistance is great! Sign her up! Rey has been living in the desert at the edge of nowhere for presumably 15 years, I'm shocked she's even heard of the new republic let alone the resistance. Despite essentially starving and only having a home that's a broken down old fighter, Rey saves a random droid. We're not really given a compelling reason of why she would do this, that she has a deep respect for droids/is horrified by their use, really really really hates the random trader she sells things to, or really really really hates the empire (if she even realizes it's them behind the bounty). She does it just so that a) the plot keeps moving b) to show Rey is... noble... I guess?
Remember that even Luke (who I have some problems with as a character) started his journey with more backstory and personality than this. Luke loved the empire and desperately wanted to become a pilot. He was very put out that his aunt and uncle kept saying, "Uh, no, bad idea." Luke was ready to skip town and sign on up for flight academy, he just got distracted by pretty women, er, his sister.
So, Rey is never given a compelling reason to do any of the things she does in the series. Just vague feelings of hero worship. And, of course, the drama over her parents. Just... I feel like Disney took out a hat, put a bunch of pieces of paper with words on them, and drew out the one that said "orphan angst about parents" and said "See, now she's conflicted! What a character!"
So yeah, Rey is your cardboard generic hero who is so generic she's not even a person. She has no hopes, no dreams, no fears, just these vague things we're told as an audience she cares about but never shown in any legitimate manner. Rey likes the resistance and rando droids, Rey imprints on Han Solo as the father she never had, Rey has this thing about her parents, Rey is attracted to Kylo Ren.
And that last one, oh boy that last one. It sold me less on the attraction to Kylo Ren than... oh... I don't know... Palpatine's secret Sith planet of doom. I mean, we all saw it coming, The Last Jedi it was very clear where that was going and then Abrams went for it even harder. But what we had was a series of skype conversations where Rey went from "Gr, you killed my pseudo father!" and Kylo-Ren responding, "Yeah, well he was my real father AND HE WAS SO MEAN" to "Oh Ben, I will fly to you through space and we shall save the galaxy together!"
I am given no reason to believe Rey's change of heart. Han Solo's death just suddenly... doesn't really mean much to her anymore (the man was murdered by his son in cold blood so that his son could feel better about himself). She believes Ben Solo is good now because Luke is a dick (never mind that, no matter what a dick Luke is, Ben Solo still murdered dozens of children and then went on to gleefully massacre his way through the galaxy). We're told there's a Force Dyad, which is um... not this thing the writer's made up because they were too lazy to convince me that Kylo-Ren and Rey would end up together in any organic way.
So, yeah, why does Rey like Kylo-Ren? Because the Force told her too? Because it was somehow all Snoke's fault in a way that's never properly described? (Indeed despite us spending quite a bit of time on Kylo-Ren's decision to remain Kylo-Ren being a very internalized thing) Because we saw him shirtless in yoga pants this one time?
It's bad when that last is actually the most legitimate reason I can think of out of the whole lot.
Now let's go to Kylo-Ren. If Rey is boring and nonsensical then Kylo-Ren is a dumpster fire and non-sensical. The guy reminds me a lot of Commodus from the film "Gladiator", the man is cowardly, vile, and murders his father in despair that his father never will be capable of loving him/passes him over for the throne. Kylo-Ren's murder of Han Solo is extremely similar to the murder of Marcus Aurelius in "Gladiator". Han Solo is a flawed father, trying to make his peace with his son, who approaches him unarmed and Kylo-Ren decides to murder him in order to solidify his place in the dark side.
Only, the films never acknowledge that every action Kylo-Ren takes is horrifying.
We're told "oh, Kylo-Ren exists because evil Snoke corrupted him" but also shown repeatedly that Kylo-Ren chooses the darkest path again and again and again. He "struggles with the light" but I don't see it. His opening scene, he has massacred a village and is torturing a man for information (this is presumably a daily routine for him). In the same film he later tortures Rey for information. He serves on a Death Star which wipes out billions in an instant. He murders his father to feel good about himself. He dresses as a man who was reviled and feared throughout the galaxy, a man who murdered countless children, and a man who dressed the way he did because he was barely hanging onto life, because Kylo-Ren thinks it makes him look like a badass. Think about it, this is like if a fully abled Kylo-Ren is wheeling around in a wheel chair, perfectly capable of walking, because he thinks that Professor X is so cool. Now, replace Professor X with Hitler, this is what the movies gave us.
Yet, the films seem to take it for granted that Kylo-Ren is a redeemable character. He's just lost and misguided, he's really struggling with the light and dark side! They don't just tell us this over and over again (which they do) but also just assume we know it.
And base the entire Reylo pairing off of it. Reylo believed Kylo-Ren could be redeemed, they battle Snoke together, then Kylo-Ren stabs her in the back and continues the assault on the Resistance and asks her to be his Dark Queen (TM). Reylo is shocked and appalled, I'm just wondering what movie she thought she was watching, because that was coming a mile away.
Later, when Kylo-Ren is redeemed, we're never given a reason why it happens. Leia just gives him a nagging, one word, phone call and then Han Solo shows up to go, "Ben, are you going to do the right thing?" and Ben goes, "Mumble, grumble, fine" because there's only an hour left in the last film.
Kylo-Ren, like Rey, is the writers' desperate attempt to create a compelling anti-hero with all the anti-hero sauce we love. They just won't admit they made an overgrown genocidal toddler.
Wow, this turned into why I hate both Rey and Kylo Ren, but, uh, back to the ship. Basically, the films give me 0 reason to ever believe it, and even if I wanted to, even if I said "Alright brain, let's make these characters real people for once", I still wouldn't like it. Because the ship itself is just as flat as the characters. It's spicy but not too spicy bad boy gets together with strong female lead.
I know a lot of people enjoy this, and I won't say it's any less legitimate than any of the weirdness I ship, but I'm not one of them. And the whole thing just makes me go "ugh".

Ooo what about Poe Dameron x wife reader sharing the same brain? They do a lot of things together too and promised to get re-married after the war idk. I think it would be so funny 🤣 and probably annoy Finn because of it!
From The Force Awakens to Rise Of Skywalker 🤔
THE FORCE AWAKENS
You were both captains of the Resistance’s Air Force
Commanded two attacks against the First Order
You on the Dreadnought
And him on the Star Destroyer
Except that you got captured after your ship fighter crashed without Poe ever knowing
The stormtroopers cover your head with a black sac and drag you for what felt like an eternity
Until you feel your back hit an inclined surface and your members being cuffed to your sides
Suddenly they rip the sac out of your head and
Surprise
Your husband is in the exact same position, mirroring you
“Poe?”
“Y/N?”
You yell at the same time, leaning forward
None of you knew the other had been captured and suddenly you’re about to be tortured together
Once Kylo Ren enters the room none of you says a word
A single look shared being enough for the both of you to know no one is saying a thing
What hurt the most isn’t necessarily the physical plain being inflicted upon you but rather the sight of the other suffering
Once Kylo leaves the both of you alone
Poe in clearly worst shape than you
Blood dripping down his face
He forces a smile
“Tell you what, we get out of this one alive, we renew our vows.”
Eventually, this helmetless trooper enters the room as the both of you tried to regain your breaths, claiming to want to rescue you
“Why?!” You both say in unison
Finn looks confused between the both of you wondering who to answer to
Eventually you jump on the X-Wing that gets you out of the ship
It crashes on Jakku and Finn is the only one that gets out 
The renewal of the vows would have to wait
When you both return commanding the X-Wings on Takodana you attack from the south while he comes from the north
delivering a perfectly synchronized attack on the First Order
when you land and find Poe, he is quick to hug the both of you
“You kept his jacket!” you point out to him
Finn goes to take it off but both you and poe say at the same time
“No!”
Poe then proceeds to say that it looks better on him
and after he walks away you whisper to Finn
“He needed a new jacket; thank you.”
THE LAST JEDI
*During the dreadnought attack*
“Go for the left wing, under the propeller!” He shouts over the intercom
“Way ahead of you, babe.”
Because just as you finished talking the whole left wing of the ship explodes
“Atta Girl!” he cheers
*Back on The Radus*
“We need to jump to lightspeed!” he says while running to your side
He places a hand on the small of your back as he looks over to the galactic navigator you were adjusting
“Except we can’t do that because we only have enough resources for one jump and if we do so, they’ll just track us again and be without fuel.”
“What should we do?” Finn asks from across the table
You look up at Poe for a few seconds with a determinate look and you both nod before looking at Commander Leia
“Permission to jump on an X-Wing?” You ask in unison
“Permission granted.” Both of you bow your heads in appreciation before taking off running to the X-Wings
Finn is left dumbstruck behind looking back and forth between the both of you running off and Leia like ??????
Just as you’re both about to reach the X-Wings, you are sent flying backwards as you both crash into the ground
*FASTFORWARD TO HOLDO’S EVACUATION PLAN*
Poe turns his head to you after Holdo announces her strategy and you widen your eyes in a threatening manner´almost as if being able to see the gears in his head turning
“No.” you point a finger at him
“She’s trying to get us all killed.”
“No she’s not!”
He looks over to thh side and you follow his glance until it lands on Finn
“Don’t even think about it.”
“Way ahead of you, honey.” he quotes you before speeding off
Of course he ends up getting stunned
OF COURSE
You are seating next to him when he wakes up
He throws a fit but you explain to him the plan
“But who is-”
“Holdo.”
“What is she-”
“Jump to lightspeed.”
“And what about -”
“Crait.”
“Wh-”
“Abandoned Resistance base.”
He takes a breather looking down into your eyes as his face softens, smiling
“Nah there is no way, NO WAY.” 
Finn strides over to the both of you a pissed look on his face
“There is absolutely nO WAY YOU KNEW WHAT HE WANTED TO ASK EVERY SINGLE TIME.”
Down in Crait you both board onto Speeders and deliver a perfectly synchronous attack until the retreat 
And of course the both of you lead the rest of the people out of the cave to meet Rey
THE RISE OF SKYWALKER
*on Kijimi*
It’s you, Poe and Finn
Poe has a blaster pointed to his head by this armoured woman
You are quick to point your own to the armored woman behind him
“You pull that trigger, you’re next, honey.”
“She used a pet name, she’s serious.” Poe informs the woman
“We’re trying to find Babu Frik.” Finn tries to explain the situation
“He only works with the crew. That’s not you anymore.”
“What does she mean crew?” Finn asks
“He was a spice runner.” you tell him without moving an inch
“I was a spice runner.” Poe said at the same time
“You were a spice runner?” Finn asks stunned
“Yes, and I was a bounty hunter.” you explain
“YOU WERE A BOUNTY HUNTER?”
“YOU WERE A STORMTROOPER!!!” you both yell in unison.
“You’re girlfriend really is something.” Zorii observes
“Wife.” This time is the three of you that correct her at the same time
Finn wants to face palm himself
because he has been spending way too much time with the both of you and it is starting to show
*On the Star Destroyer”
Standing between Poe and Finn, Chewie next to him after having been captured 
“Bounty hunter and spice runner, seriously?” Finn asks the both of you
“Honestly, how do you think we met?” you ask him in return
“Like a couple does????”
“Have you seen where we are??” Poe asks him
BAM
All the troopers are dead and Hux admits to being the spy
At the exact same Poe whisper yells an “I KNEW IT” upon spotting Hux
You shake your head “You did not know it.”
*Fast forward to when Leia dies and the both of you are standing on each side of her deathbed*
Agreeing to honor her legacy and carry the Resistance to victory and peace
*First Order defeated, during the celebrations among the rest of the Resistance*
After pulling you in for a kiss, he whispers against your lips
“I didn’t forget.”
Poe gets on one knee in front of you
As Finn, Rey, Chewie and BB watch right next to the both of you
“Sweetheart, I love you so much and I know I’m a pain in the ass, so the chances of you saying yes for a second time are really slim and I’m aware of that but...”
He pulls his necklace over his head, holding his mother’s ring
“Will you do me the honor of showing you how much I adore you by getting remarried?”
Tears are flowing
Hard
But you’re laughing???
You pull him up to his feet and throw your arms around him, kissing his lips deeply
Once you pull away, both smiling
The two of you look over at Finn and he, as if on cue, goes
“Yes I’ll officiate it.”
And you all laugh at how quickly he got what you were about to ask

Under My Skin: Chapter 5
Tumblr media
Words = 9k
Summary = You’ve been kidnapped by the First Order and Poe wants needs you back
Warnings = No fun warnings I’m sorry! There is a happy ending, but before we get there it’s, kidnapping, forced drugging, aftermath of that, general pain, hurt/comfort, violence, hospital setting. I think that’s everything? Please, please, please let me know if I’ve missed anything - this got a lot darker than I intended (if you have any questions before you read, just shoot me a message and I’ll let you know!)
A/N = Sorry this chapter took so long - i think it might have actually killed me. But we’re at the end! Just wanted to say thanks to everyone who’s read this far, and stuck with the story, I love you all!  
Also special thanks to @michaelperry who beta’d this like a month ago and gave me some really good advice!

Chapter 1   Chapter 4
Series Masterlist
***
When you wake, it’s cold. You're in a chair, hands strapped to the arms. It takes you a long time to open your eyes; your head is pounding and the bright lights shining on you are complicating matters.
The room swims slowly into focus as you blink, feeling like there’s glue on your lash line each time you try and open your eyes.
The room is a bright white, smelling faintly of chemicals and you keep blinking, trying to adjust to the sudden brightness. You move your head slightly, trying to think. There’s something just floating outside of your consciousness, something important you should be remembering, but every time you grab for it, it floats away.
You don’t know how long you sit like this, drifting in and out of consciousness, with little to no perception of what’s around you.
When there’s a loud slam, your whole body jerks forward in shock, but there’s nowhere to go. You’ve begun to lose most of the feeling in your arms, but your mind is beginning to feel clearer. Now you can hear a whirring beneath you, the slight vibration letting you know you’re on a ship, and it’s already in flight. How long have you been traveling for? You’re still cold, goosebumps up and down your arms as your teeth chatter slightly.
You focus on the person standing behind you, not bothering to turn your head. “It’ssnot polite … to … to slam t’door, y’know,”  You're shocked when your voice comes out more slurred than you meant it to.
The figure behind you just laughs, and it sends shivers down your spine. They walk forwards slowly, a cloak wrapped around their body, hood off. He seems a little familiar to you but you’re not sure why.
The room is coming more and more into focus, like someone’s turned up the intensity of your vision, and you can see that there are cupboards lining the wall in front of you, various tables and medical equipment visible.
The man had pale skin, ginger hair, although he was starting to lose it, his hairline creeping back in a subtle widow’s peak. He smiles, and it sends a shiver down your spine. “Oh dear. Struggling to talk?” His tone is mocking as he leans towards you.
Your mouth feels dry, like it’s been stuffed of cotton wool and you can’t think. You can’t remember … anything. How did you end up here? Who is this horrible man in front of you? Why does he look familiar?
You try to talk again. “Wha’ve’oou givenee?”
It’s a struggle to manipulate your mouth fast enough to separate your words, your tongue clumsy in your mouth, but you try. “Wha’ve you givenee? Given? Given. Me?”
“It’s wearing off, good good. Don’t worry sweetheart, you’ll be able to talk properly in around …” he looks at his wrist, considering. “Maybe 15 minutes?”
Sweetheart.
That feels familiar - why?
The man takes a seat, a much comfier looking one than the one you’re sat on, looking prepared to wait. He’s calm, shuffling through papers and clattering objects around. You try and pull it together, closing your eyes in an attempt to concentrate. You have 15 minutes before something’s going to happen. He wants you to be able to talk … so … so … so why can’t you think?
He wants you to tell him about the resistance.
Of course. The resistance. He needs information … and suddenly fear shoots down your spine.
Except obviously you won’t give him what he wants. So he’s waiting because…?
Why can’t you think?!
Someone else used to call you sweetheart.
And suddenly there’s a tan face in your memory, grinning at you and calling you sweetheart. And you can remember feeling frustration, but it’s different. This memory-frustration, it’s like a warm bubble inside you, rising and bursting as you call the man an idiot.
His hair is amazing.
You know his name. You know you do. It’s right there on the tip of your tongue - …
The man in the chair coughs, and the face flies out of your head, leaving a sharp pain in your chest instead. Why?
And gradually, you’re also becoming aware of a throbbing pain in your head. You don’t know what the cause is, whether you hit your head, or if it’s something as simple as dehydration.
There’s a high-pitched beep and the man sits up in his chair.
Poe.
You nearly gasp his name out, stopping yourself at the last second. But why does thinking about him hurt?
The man doesn’t seem to realise your inner conflict, or if he does, he doesn’t care, instead scraping his chair across to sit in front of you. “So sweetheart, let’s run through some basics. I’ll ask you a couple of questions to test where you are, then we’ll see what you know.”
You can smell his breath. It’s minty, matching his too-white teeth, and you hate it. You hate him. You already know you won’t answer a single one of his questions.
“Name?”
You nearly laugh, they don’t know your name?
“Sweetheart tell me what your name is, so I know that the drug is out of your system.”
You just blink at him, in that split second deciding on your tactic. Absolute silence.
You don’t get a reaction from him, however, instead he moves onto the next question.
“Date of birth?”
It takes an effort to not automatically respond, but you don’t change your expression.
The man just sighs again.
“Do you know who I am?”
You don’t, but you don’t reply.
“My name is General Hux and I am to deliver you and Poe Dameron to Kylo Ren.”
General Hux. And suddenly you remember Poe telling you something.
You laugh, unable to stop yourself. “You mean General Hugs? Aww you’re my favourite, I’m flattered that you of all people in the First Order would come to find me.”
You get the first flicker of annoyance crossing the man’s face. Then it resolves itself, and he grins. “So you can talk clearly now,” he stands, scraping the chair over the floor. “Good, good.” Opening one of the cupboards he pulls out some clear liquid in a large jar and a couple of bags, placing them onto a small table with a clatter, which he pushes towards you.
And all at once, with a heavy thud in your chest as the memory flashes across your eyes, you remember what you said to Poe. And that after, you walked into the forest-
You love him.
Fuuu-
Your line of thought is interrupted by the man saying your name. You clench your fists, suddenly aware of how cold your fingers are. You’re an idiot.
“You better start answering my questions now.” The man sits back in front of you, pulling the table next to him. And now you can see what’s in the bags. Absolutely enormous needles attached to syringes.
Your throat goes dry.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuckfuck!
You try to squash the fear, instead baring your teeth in a grin. “Why? Will General Hugs be cross?”
For good measure, you add a pout in, and maker, you’ve never been so glad to be a piece of work.
“I will. And you won’t like me when I’m cross.”
You ignore the flash of fear you feel, instead concentrating on moving your feet inside your shoes in a futile attempt to warm them up. Your laugh is cold. “Oh I think I’ll be ok.”
He picks up a syringe, carefully unwrapping it, before drawing some clear liquid into it. You continue, ignoring his attempts to intimidate you. “After all, I don’t like you very much now, so I can’t even imagine what you could do to me to make me hate you more.”
He ignores you, tapping the syringe and watching a bubble float to the top. “Do you know what this is?”
Be annoying.
“Well if it’s the same thing as the first one you gave me, I wouldn’t recommend it because then I’ll just pass out again and you won’t get a coherent answer out of me, will you?”
He laughs, shaking his head. “Sweetheart, those people had nothing to do with the First Order. They just needed the money.”
“So the First Order don’t even have the manpower to come and get me yourself?” You tut. “Standards are slipping.”
“Mouthy bitch, aren’t you?” He’s still playing with the syringe, and you can’t help but eye the needle warily. “No, this is different. Lowers your inhibitions, your perceptions. You’ll tell me things you don’t even realise.”
“Ahhhh so you see, you’ve made a mistake there.” You’re talking rubbish, but you can’t seem to stop yourself, in full flow now. “I don’t have any inhibitions, anyone will tell you that I’m utterly shameless so I just, I really, really don’t think it’ll worth giving it to me, it just won’t work, and who knows how much the drug cost and what a waste, I really don’t think you, the great General Hugs would be hap-”
Your steady stream of consciousness is stopped when he slaps you with a resounding crack, your head flying to one side.
Pain immediately blooms on the side of your face, and you have to blink away a few tears from the impact.
“Don’t talk about what you don’t know, silly girl, I need to find out where Poe Dameron is and-”
You interrupt with another laugh, and maybe that first injection addled your brain more than you thought it did, because that truly was a stupid thing to do. You’ve never acted like this before, and yet there’s a small voice in the back of your head telling you that Poe would be proud, so you keep going.
“You don’t know? So it’s pure luck that you found me - no wait, that I was delivered to you! Maker I love being right, standards really are slippi-”
The second slap hurts more than the first.
You sit there for a second in dumb shock, blood pooling in your mouth from the blunt force.
When Hugs rips your sleeve up your left forearm, holding the needle against your skin, you start to twist your wrist in it’s cuff, desperate to get away. You can see your wrist turning red, and your hand is starting to hurt from the force you’re using.
Hugs doesn’t waste any time though, using one cold hand to hold your wrist above the cuff still, gripping it tightly, he plunges the needle in with the other. When the needle pierces your skin, it hurts, you can feel the liquid soaking into your muscles and traveling up your arm.
The effect of this drug isn’t immediate, and so you sit there for a moment, arm aching, determined not to show how much this hurts. You turn your head to the other side and spit out the blood in your mouth, the red a bright contrast on the sparkling floor.
A mix of saliva and blood trails from your lips, and you explore your mouth with your tongue, finding the area where your teeth cut the inside of your cheek. You remove your tongue immediately upon finding it, not needing to add further pain to another area of your body.
Stars but the needle hurts.
“Do you-?” You nod towards your arm, naively hoping that Hugs will remove the needle. “Do you mind removing the needle, I mean-”
You stop talking when you move your fingers by accident and a stab of pain shoots up your arm.
Fuck the needle is massive too.
Hugs just grins, and the movement looks unnatural as he stretches stiff facial muscles, leaning back into his chair, tidying up the instruments on the table. “Maybe you’ll learn some manners,” is all he says.
“I thought - … I thought you wanted me to talk?” Your body is starting to hurt now, and it’s starting to be a struggle to speak again.
Except now you can feel the drug’s effect. It’s hardly noticeable at first, but gradually, gradually, the pain is receding. And the effect of this drug is different to the last, it’s lifting you up, making everything dream-like and fuzzy.
Everything thankfully stays in your mind, although you can’t help but giggle. Something’s funny.
“Tell me about General Dameron.” Hug’s voice is stern as he leans towards you and all you can do is let out another giggle.
General. He’s just Poe. Your Poe.
“I don’t know anything about him.” You’re such a bad liar. You’re trying to keep your face innocent and blank, but giggles keep rising up, and you’re sure it’s ruining the effect.
“I think you do.”
You giggle again. Maker this is good fun. Dimly, you register that your arm doesn’t hurt anymore and you stare as you wiggle your fingers, only feeling a faint thrum through your arm.
“Well you think wrong.” Are you singing? Singing sounds like fun.
“Can you confirm he stole kyber crystals alongside you a cycle ago?”
Fuck and you remember that mission so well. It was such a disaster. But as funny as this situation is, it remains in your mind that the man in front of you is a very bad man, and you can’t tell him anything.
“Answer me.” The command is sharp and stern, and you don’t like it. Hugs is mean. With a name like Hugs, he should really be nicer. You’d think he would be cuddlier, like a teddy bear. Instead he’s all sharp angles and words.
You pout. “No.” He’s so rude. Why should you answer him anyway? “Don’t you know? Me and Dameron hate each other - I know nothing about him.”
The phrase feels so familiar on your tongue, yet something about it is clunky, old-fashioned. The denial is an old friend of yours, and maybe you should have pushed down your feelings for him in the same way, and maybe you would already be feeling better. This pain in your chest is too much.
I don’t love Poe Dameron.
Even in your head it sounds flat.
Another slap to your face twists your head the opposite way. This one doesn’t hurt, you only notice it from the movement of your head.
“Answer me.” The commanding tone breaks through your dreamy haze. You have no idea what the question was, but you can feel a liquid pooling at the corner of your mouth. You blow out slightly, feeling a bubble forming.
The safe option is a petulant “No.”
“You will.”
“I will not.”
This is actually quite a fun game - the more you refuse, the more visibly annoyed Hugs gets. He’s trying so hard to stay calm, to stay in control, but you can see it in the twitch of his fingers. It kind of reminds you how Poe used to fight his annoyance towards you, the only difference being that Poe never moved to hurt you.
The questions continue for what feels like hours and hours. You have no perception of time, or how long has passed, only that you’re hungry and thirsty, and Hugs keep giving you more of this drug. You can’t remember what you say in response to the questions, but the one thing you keep in mind is not to tell them anything.
And one by one, each of your friends appears tauntingly in front of you, Rey chasing her head around the room, Rose uncontrollably floating above you like a balloon, Poe looking suspiciously normal, although with heavier eyebrows than usual, causing him to frown more. He upsets you first, telling you he’s glad you’re not friends, before saying that he hates you, he always has, he was just taking pity on you, that sleeping together was just stress relief. And then he sprouts wings, turning into an eagle, flying around the ceiling, where Rose was minutes before, except now you’re sobbing.
You’re aware that you’re hallucinating, each of them have a suspiciously shiny quality to them, a shimmer at their edges. But the idea of Poe telling you he hates you, that you never meant anything to him … it hurts.
Gradually, gradually, you can feel a tug of darkness at the edges of your mind, and everything inexplicably hurts, so you let it take you, if only so you won’t hurt anymore.
***
Back at base, Poe had never felt so out of control before. He’d always struggled with impulse management, the answer usually so clear in his mind. Suit up, jump into his x-wing, blow the problem up.
He couldn’t blow this problem up.
Everyone was moving so fast around him, yet they didn’t seem to be doing anything. You weren’t back, so they couldn’t be. Poe felt almost detached, looking down on his body surrounded by everyone who was working hard to find you.
He made his way to his x-wing, though he didn’t remember getting there. He was holding his flight suit, and some part of him was aware that he had to put it on if he wanted to fly.
“Poe.” The voice was familiar behind him.
Turning, he saw Leia standing behind him, a look of pity on her face. “Droids have tracked the lieutenant through the forest where she was joined by two others, identity unknown as of yet.”
Poe nodded. Numbness was spreading through him, he could hardly move, the idea of speaking was laughable.
“There were signs of a struggle, but we’ll find her Poe.”
What if she doesn’t want to come back? She’s not my friend.
“Poe.” There was a hand on his shoulder. It takes a great deal of effort for him to focus on Leia in front of him. Her hand was touching him, and it felt so familiar to yours, and yet so different, in almost every way that felt like it mattered. “It’ll be ok.”  
“I’ve got to go.” He was going to get you back, hell or high water.
In fact, it didn't even matter if you didn’t want to come back with him.
Poe shakes his head, “We’re not friends!” still ringing in his mind.
You were going to come back to the base if Poe had to drag you, if only so he could have a proper conversation with you before you left for good.
He hadn’t even realised he’d been flirting with the recruit until you’d turned up, and then suddenly you’d commanded his whole world view. How competent and confident you’d looked, hitting the target with each of your shots, before he’d come to the conclusion that you were jealous.
By that point, you’d already stalked away, shoulders tight with a scowl on your face. He had been able to see your lie, that you really were jealous, as soon as the words had left your mouth, your denial too strong, too protective.  
But why? Why didn’t you want him to know you were jealous? As far as Poe was concerned, it was kind of hot.
You couldn’t run away, or die before Poe got the answers.
You couldn’t. He wouldn’t allow it.
He stooped to pull the flight suit on, shrugging off Leia’s hand.
“Poe I’m not letting you chase after her.”
Poe ignored her, instead bending slightly and concentrating on doing up the buttons and various zips.
“Poe listen!”
General Organa was speaking now, not Leia, and it made Poe stop, straightening automatically.
“I am not giving you permission to leave base. Rey and Finn have already left.”
Poe steps towards Leia, and stars he feels angry.
“I am the best flyer in the resistance and you’re grounding me?”
He ignores the way his head spins when he remembers the look on your face that night you’d told him he was the best flyer, how you’d said his mum would be proud of him, how-
He shakes his head, not wanting the memory right now, blinking hard as tears well in his eyes.
“Yes.” His fingers flex at his side at Leia’s calmness.
“Why not?” He doesn’t want to snap at Leia but he had to get you back. He was going to murder those bastards who took you … if they had hurt you … “I can’t lose her, Leia, I can’t.”
“You’re not in the right headspace right now, and I can’t risk-”
Poe laughs, cutting Leia off and it’s not nice. It’s a little loose and a little mad, louder than it needs to be. “You can’t risk what? Losing me?” He bends again, this time tightening the harness straps around his legs and they’re tight, too tight. “I can’t risk losing her, Leia.” He takes a deep breath, shaking fingers attempting to loosen the straps, attempting to take back control. “I c-an’t.”
Leia’s heart broke as Poe’s voice cracked. For the first time in a long time, she saw the young boy who had come to the Resistance as soon as he was able, desperate to prove himself and throw himself into the middle of the fight.
So she steps forwards and hugs him. “I know, I know.” Leia can feel Poe trembling.  “But you charging off with half a brain isn’t going to fix anything.”
Poe allows himself to be held, head empty for a moment. He feels exhausted, yet every nerve within him is wired up to go, although he doesn’t know where. An indeterminate amount of time passes before Poe realises that Leia is probably doing all she can to stall him.
When this thought trickles down into his mind, he steps back. Perhaps because Leia can read him like a book, or perhaps because she really does want to help, she offers a small smile. “Come with me.”
Poe doesn’t have much chance to reply before Leia’s steering him by his elbow, keeping a tight grip on him. He’s led to comms, a room he’s aware of, but has never been in before.
Rose is sitting, hovering over a comm worker who Poe’s unfamiliar with. They’re sitting at a messy workstation with a number of small screens, a mess of wires cascading out of the back. The comms worker has an earphone in one ear, while the big centre screen is turned on, showing what appears to be Rey and Finn’s position.
There’s a pain in Poe’s chest as he looks at the other, empty, workstations. This is what you're worth to the Resistance. One comms worker and a friend.
Rose stands, flinging her arms around him. She’s talking, but there's a buzzing in Poe’s ears and he’s missing some. “... she’ll be alright.”
Rose has drawn back, and it’s like the bubble has popped around Poe, bringing him back to the present. He nods, suddenly aware of how hard Leia is still holding onto his arm, and briefly wondering if he’ll have bruises.
Poe picks up his own set of earphones and moves to power up the next screen over, clicking through to Rey’s comms, mind clearing as he and the comms worker start to talk through it.
After all, Poe’s always been good under pressure, blocking out all distractions, including Leia’s instructions to the droid by the door not to let Commander Dameron leave until the Lieutenant was back.
***
When you wake, you’re alone. The drug, whatever they gave you has worn off, and your headache has returned. You’re shaking, covered in sweat. When you try and make a fist with your good arm, you can barely apply enough pressure to close your hand.
You’re still strapped to the chair and unable to move your arms. When you glance down at your left arm, the blood makes your stomach turn. Everything seems sharper than it did before, more pronounced edges, yet the surfaces have lost their colour, looking duller.
Your mouth is dry and you know that if you could have some more of the drug, just a little, you’d feel better. But there are more pressing concerns; you need to get out of here.
Your feet are on the floor, good. Your head itches, and your ribs ache like you’ve been hit around the stomach. There’s something dried on your chin, irritating your skin, tightening it.
It’s hard to think, it’s so cold in here, like the ice is numbing your brain. Your headache is pounding behind your eyes and doesn’t help. But you try to stand, thinking you’ll attempt a turtle-like shuffle to the door.
Except you can’t.
You try again, bracing your feet against the floor and trying to stand. It takes you longer than it should to realise that it’s not working because you’re pressing down with your arms too.
You slump back into the chair with enough force to cause it to move, trying to catch your strength, panting heavily and not sure what else to do.
It takes you longer than it should for you to realise what that means, the thought barely trickling down into your mind.
Ok.
With a lot of careful angling and heavy slumps, you manage to twist the chair so it’s facing the door. It’s made of the same material as the walls, barely distinguishable apart from a keypad and metal grille.
Which Rey and Finn are looking at you through.
You sigh. Great. That’s what you need right now, more hallucinations. They look shocked, faces slack, until Rey disappears and Finn smiles reassuringly at you.
Briefly you wonder if Rey’s gone because her head fell off again. Then you consider if your hallucinations can get any weirder.
The next thing you know the door is swinging open, creaking slightly on its hinges and Finn’s rushing over to you, Rey poking around behind you.
“Can you stand?” Finn’s asking, looking down at you, brow furrowed. You can only nod in response, although you’re not confident in your answer. Your limbs are stiff, and even now you can move, it’s a struggle.
There’s a brief pain flickering in your left arm, and you focus on not looking at it, remembering the amount of blood. It takes Finn’s arm around you to help you stand, and you can’t help the gasp of pain that escapes you. Your vision goes dark for a second, before returning, duller than ever.
***
Finn knew what the First Order was capable of, especially when they wanted information from someone, but it was never any easier to see. Especially when it was someone he cared about.
He watched you struggle to coordinate your legs, having been kept in the same position for hours. Rey moves ahead, drawing her lightsaber in anticipation while Finn half carries you down the hallway.
He’s worried at the amount of blood you’ve lost from your arm, but your face is swollen and bruised, with dried blood at the corner of your mouth, and staining the collar of your shirt. You’re still conscious, just about, but your eyes don’t seem to be focusing.
The three of you pass the bodies of the two stormtroopers who were unlucky enough to be guarding your corridor, before sneaking out. Ducking into alcoves, they attempt not to be caught, although it’s hard to stop you from making noise.
If it’s not moans of pain, you’re commenting on something under your breath, and what little Finn can hear doesn’t seem to make sense. The look on Rey’s face tells him that she doesn’t get it either.  
And they’re so close, nearly back to the hangar, when a pair of troopers spot them. Rey is already swinging as Finn rushes to put you down before he can draw his lightsaber and help. The fight is desperate, but brief. Thankfully no alarms seem to be going off, although that thought flies from Finn’s head when he looks back at you.
You’ve slumped against the wall where Finn had placed you, and you’re shaking as you try and stay sat upright. You’re no longer looking at them, instead your brow is furrowed, concentrating on something only you can see in front of you.
Finn isn’t entirely sure how they managed to make it onboard, but he wasn’t about to complain, carefully strapping you to help keep you upright if you faint. He uses the small med-kit to wipe away the blood from your face and arm as best as he can, applying bacta patches where he can see injuries, the familiar sweet smell soon filling the small ship.
Rey is quickly in hyperspace, comming back to base with their status. “Blue-10 with the Lieutenant, medical attention will be needed on arrival.”
Both Rey and Finn jolt with surprise at the familiar voice crackling through the comms in response. “Received and understood Blue-10.”
“Poe?” Finn mouths, and Rey just shrugs. A second later, Poe’s switched to a private channel, his voice quiet.
“How is she?”
Rey and Finn look at each other, unsure how much Poe needs to know. They don’t want to lie, but how can they tell the truth? Rey clicks the private channel open, hesitating before she replies. “She’s stable Poe.”
***
Waking up hurts.
You’re lying down, and although your body hurts, you feel calmer. There’s a steady noise matching the beat of your heart, slow and steady, although the noise speeds up as you blink at the ceiling.  
You’re not sure if you’ve got a plan, but you know you need to get free. Something is holding you down, becoming more and more tangled around you, and your whole body hurts.
And then, suddenly the weight is pulled off you, and you feel like you can breathe again, big gasps failing to get more oxygen into your lungs. You struggle to control your breathing, not feeling ready to face whatever new terror the First Order have concocted for you.
It’s Rose. Holding a brown blanket.
You push yourself into a sitting position, ignoring the flare of pain in your arm, waiting for a second, hardly daring to breathe as you wait for her to change in front of your eyes.
When she doesn’t, you can feel some of the panic recede, although you can’t seem to force yourself to relax. Rose folds the blanket, placing it at the foot of your bed, and you watch her carefully, still wary.
When she meets your eyes, you attempt a smile, pain pulling at your mouth and cheek as you do so. You can tell it’s not convincing by the way she smiles back, tears flooding her eyes.
You look away, blinking heavily to stop your own tears.
Your head and shoulders are raised slightly, and when you look down, you’re wearing a paper-thin hospital gown. It’s scratchy against your skin, feeling like bugs burrowing into you. Rose is sitting next to you, tinkering with something she’s placed on your bedside table, hands hovering just above her lap, like she wants to help, but doesn’t want to overstep.
“Hey.” Her voice is soft. “How are you feeling?”
You nod, not sure what you’re feeling, exactly, just that your hands are shaking when you try and put them on top of the covers, that you’re shivering, and your stomach is rolling.
You open your mouth to tell Rose so, and you throw up.
It’s warm, and liquidy and the smell makes you throw up again, and again. Rose has jumped back, and you don’t blame her, rolling your body to your side so you can spit the rising bile out of your mouth onto the floor instead of onto the mess on your bed.
By the time you’ve stopped being sick, Rose is standing at the end of your bed with a pair of nurse-droids, who escort you to a bath, cleaning you up, and then to a different bed, this time with a bowl in reaching distance. You don’t say anything, hot shame creeping up your neck and face, and hoping, praying, that maybe you’ll pass out again, and you won’t remember this.
No such thing happens, and you’re left to be looked after by the droids. Rose never leaves you, although for the period of time you’re covered in sick, she does keep her distance, only returning when you’re clean in bed again, this time wearing a softer t-shirt and shorts.
It’s only when one of the nurse-droid’s returns, arms full that you notice it. It’s carrying a vase of flowers, which Rose later tells you is from your squadron, and, in it’s other hand, carries a familiar datapad, with a piece of paper on top and a chocolate pudding.
Poe’s been here?
You can’t stop the way your heart stutters in your chest at the thought, and although you want to smell the chocolate, you think that’s probably a good thing you can’t with the state of your stomach at the moment.
The nurse-droid hooks you up to various machines this time, inserting a drip into your non-injured arm, along with a heart monitor, and a couple of other machines you don’t know the purpose of.
Your head still hurts, and you’re shaking, but you try your best to listen to the doctor who checks your vitals are normal and tells you that you’re going to get worse before you get better. The drug they gave you is an addictive one, and the next 5 days are going to hurt.
She keeps telling you things, but you start to zone out as black spots appear in your vision. Rose is nodding in understanding at your side, so you don’t feel too bad, concentrating on just staying awake.
All you can think about is the drug and how light it made you feel, how quickly it made time pass. Every movement hurts, like you fell 50 foot out of an x-wing, but aside from your arm, you can’t see any physical damage.
You fall in and out of sleep, Rose a constant presence at your side. She’s tinkering with something the first few times you wake, and she explains what it is, and what’s wrong with it to distract you from the pain. You ask the occasional question, enjoying the steady sound of her voice, while yours is croaky and hoarse.
When you wake with a clearer head, the lights are dimmed to a soft yellow, and Poe is asleep, head resting on the foot of your bed. Rose is gone and you’re glad; you don’t know how long you’ve been in bed, and you hope she’s getting some rest or proper food.
His flight suit is wrapped around his waist, top half covered by a dark t-shirt. If you bend your head to a certain angle, the light catches on his necklace around his neck. Poe looks exhausted, his body twisted at a weird angle, thick stubble growing on his face, and eyes red-rimmed, even as he sleeps.
Trying not to jostle him, you reach out to the datapad and unfold the note Poe left on top, avoiding the chocolate pudding like the plague.
Enjoy the chocolate pudding, Finn is bullying me to get some rest.
I’ve downloaded a couple of holovids, see you soon Poe x
You’ve never seen his handwriting before, and it’s easier to read than you’d imagined, thinking he’d be the type to write in a messy scrawl, his hand unable to keep up with his thoughts.
It’s short, but something about it makes a warmth flare inside you. You read it until you know it off by heart, before folding it back up and placing it on the datapad.
You still feel tired, and you watch Poe sleep, the room silent except for the steady beeping of the machines at your side. You’re not sure how much time passes, the world around your bed feeling hazy as you half doze, not wanting to tear your eyes away from Poe, hardly daring to believe he’s real.
You jolt awake when he does, his arm reaching across your legs as he grasps your calves in a panic. One of the machines beeps increases with your heart rate, but you ignore it, you and Poe staring at each other, wide-eyed, as though a quick movement will make the other bolt.
His hands are still holding your legs, warm and grounding.
“How are you feeling?” His voice is hoarse as he slowly releases his hands.
You nod, and you hadn’t noticed it before, but your neck is stiff. “Good, I guess.”
Poe nods too, and where did this tension come from? He takes a breath as you look down at the hem of your blanket, idly wondering why the medbay would buy such a horrendous shade of brown.
Maybe it’s to hide stains.
You immediately wish you hadn’t thought that, the implications freaking you out a little, upsetting your sensitive stomach.
“I … I wanted to apologise.” Poe’s voice thankfully breaks through your increasingly worrying train of thought. His hand fly’s up to touch his ring. “I clearly crossed a boundary - I thought we were friends and -”
You interrupt him when you throw up, thankfully into the bowl the nurse-droid left this time, but it’s no less embarrassing as bile stings the back of your throat. Poe immediately moves up closer to you, hand reaching to rub your back as you try and hide in vain from him.
His hand is warm and comforting, moving slowly up and down your back as you continue to heave. When you finish retching, Poe silently hands you a glass of water, which you use to swill your mouth out, moving to place the now semi-full bowl to the other side of you when Poe takes it from you.
You can hardly bear to look at it, let alone smell it, and Poe is carrying it like it’s nothing, taking for the nurse-droids to dispose of. When he returns, he’s wiping his hands with a disinfectant and you wince.
“Poe I’m so sorry.” You decide to risk a sip of water, trying to get rid of the sick taste still in your mouth. “I’ve been sick all day and I’m sorry.” You’re ready to keep apologising but Poe just hands you a towel, which you use to wipe your mouth.
“It’s ok.” He reaches down for the blanket, and you let him tuck you in, suddenly aware that you’re shivering again. He reaches for his datapad, opening it and beginning to talk. He’s reading a children’s story, one you recognise as being from Yavin IV, a sweet story about a frog learning of the perils of the jungle.
Your eyes get heavier, and Poe’s voice fades into the background, the last you hear is the frog swimming in freshwater, unaware of the danger around the corner before you fall asleep.
***
When you wake, he’s gone, but you don’t get much chance to think about it before the nurse-droids are back, along with the doctor. She’s a nice woman, chattering away, telling you her name (Dr Alloso Karga), about her children (she’s got lots), and the trouble they get into (almost constant).
You don’t say much, still feeling the after-effects of the drug, but Dr Karga doesn't seem to need much additional input. You’re glad of her stories, they give you something else to think about while she hooks you up to an IV drip, and takes measurements from all the machines beeping at your side.
She unwraps the bandage around your left arm, revealing a thin scar running alongside one of your veins. “I’ll give you a cream to rub on every morning and night, and it’ll fade.” Her voice is kind as she watches your face, but you don’t react, numbness spreading through you like ice as you look at the scar.
All you can think is how small it is, when you remember the pain it caused, and the blood you lost from it … and now you’re left with this tiny, almost pathetic scratch. Dr Karga places the cream on your side table, next to Poe’s datapad and his note, and you already know you won’t use it.
Thankfully she doesn’t push the topic, leaving soon after.
With not a lot else to do, you fall back asleep, despite the bright light shining in through the window opposite you.
Days pass like this. Rose and Poe are frequent visitors, with Rey and Finn dropping in occasionally, as does Kare, and Jannah. No one seems to expect much of you, which is nice, allowing you to fall asleep at random intervals when the mood strikes you.
***
When you wake again you’re not sure how many days you’ve been in the medbay for. You don’t feel sick at all anymore, your stomach’s rumbling beneath the covers. Your head still hurts, and your body still feels bruised and achy, but your mind feels clearer than it has in days.
You’re still hooked up to a couple of machines, but only by a clip to your finger, wires extending down past the edge of your bed. It’s easy to take off, and you figure it’ll be easy to put back on again.
The chocolate pudding left by Poe has disappeared, and you suspect one of the nurses has binned it, which was probably a good idea. Swinging your legs over the side of the bed, you pause when a rush of cool air hits your bare legs.
You pad barefoot over the cold medbay floor, praying that it’s clean. There’s no one else in any of the other beds in your room, and when you look out, there doesn’t seem to be anyone next door either. A couple of hundred meters to your left, through the glass in a pair of double doors, you can see the busy reception. Meanwhile, to your right the corridor extends.
You shiver a little. You’re not wearing much, just shorts and a thin t-shirt. With no one around, you don’t feel too exposed, but you would quite like to get back to bed. You choose to go right, figuring you’d quite like to eat alone and save yourself any embarrassment if your stomach decides to reject food again and wander casually in quiet curiosity.
You peek through the windows of various spare rooms, some with people in bacta tubes, others with droids chittering away. And, it’s only when you turn the corner, that you see the food sign over the door to a small storeroom.
Letting out a happy little sigh at all the food lining the wall, you fumble for the light switch, the door closing and quickly engulfing you in the darkness.
Moving forwards you aim for the chocolate which has immediately caught your eye, letting out a shriek of panic when a hand lands on your shoulder.
Twisting around in panic, your bare foot catches on the corner of a shelf and you let out a howl of pain. You’re falling, and you’re gonna land on your injured arm when the stranger’s hands grab hold of your shoulders, righting you enough that you can catch yourself.
Muttering breathless ow’s of pain, you look up to see none other than Poe in front of you, his lips twisted in amusement.
“You alright?” He asks.
You can only nod, and before you feel any doubt about what you want to do, you fling your arms around his neck and hug him. He’s so sturdy, and here, and you finally feel semi-normal, and all you want is to be grounded.
Poe doesn’t say anything, just lets out a long-suffering sigh, wrapping his arms around you in response. It’s not until you feel his chest catch on a breath, that you unwind slightly, pulling back so you can see him.
He’s crying.
“Poe, Poe, it’s ok.” You wrap him back in your arms and let him cry. He just holds you tight, like he can’t believe you’re really here standing in front of him. Both too soon, and too late, he pulls back, wiping at his eyes.
“Why are you in here?”
It’s a genuine question, but you marvel at him for a second. “Why are you in here?”
Poe looks like he would quite like to say something he thinks is funny, but eventually lands on on a serious response. “I wanted to see what you were up to. You looked very shady.”
“Oh.” You shrug. “I woke up, and I was starving.”
Poe stands next to you as you grab whatever looks good off the shelves, mainly chocolate, but also juice, and some sandwiches. “You should look after yourself.” His voice is gentle.
“I am!” You protest. “I need to eat.”
“You couldn’t have asked for help?”
You raise an eyebrow at him as the two of you move to the door. Poe follows you as you try to explain yourself. “No, I-”
You stop talking as you open the door by a crack, your eyes widening. Rose is stood in the room opposite, slightly blurred from the glass door, running her hand up and down Jannah’s arm, while the other is in a sling.
You gasp as you watch Rose lean forwards, placing a kiss on her lips, hushing Poe behind you. “Poe, Poe, Poe, look at this, are you watching?”
Your whisper is loud and you grin, bouncing on the balls of your feet, momentarily forgetting your aches, before quickly closing the door as Rose and Jannah move closer to kiss. You don’t want to invade their privacy too much.
When you turn, Poe’s grin grows as he takes in your face. “I knew it!” You dump the contents of your arms onto the floor, settling in for a while. “I knew they liked each other!”
He’s managed to get his leather jacket back from Finn, and he takes it off, laying it on the floor for you to sit on. You tuck your feet under you, glad to get them off the cold floor.
The two of you eat together, and you gain confidence as more time passes and your stomach seems to have settled, branching out to more flavourful foods.
Afterwards, he walks you back to your bed, carrying some spare food for you, with his leather jacket hanging off your shoulders. Poe calls a nurse-droid over to hook you back up to your machines and you pout at him in complaint. You’re starting to shake and sweat again but Poe stays for as long as he can, until he has to go to a meeting, promising he’ll be back soon.
He’s not gone for long, and you’re just starting to get bored, when Rose pokes her head around the door.
“Where have you been?”
You can’t help yourself; you grin like a cheshire cat.
“Where have I been? I think I should be asking you that!”
And there’s a definite blush rising on Rose’s neck, tinting her cheeks a faint pink. She still tries to deny though. “What do you mean?”
“Well,” you draw it out, “I just so happened to be walking around earlier and was surprised to see that Jannah had managed to injure herself.”
Rose sighs and it’s long-suffering. And then she slumps into her chair, opens her mouth and tells you everything.
How she and Jannah had started to spend more time together, but they’d been friends for so long. How hugs for comfort turned into something more. How they’d kissed for the first time when Jannah had asked her out. And now, how it was turning into something more and, Rose’s voice went quiet here, she thought she might be in love.
“Oh Rose,” you sigh, your heart filling for your friend. “Are you gonna tell her?”
When she nods, it takes all your self-control not to jump up and hug her, instead settling for clasping her hands in yours. “I’m sorry.” Rose whispers. “Will you forgive me?”
Your heart stops, brief panic flickering in you. “What for?”
“That I didn’t tell you sooner.” A heavy sense of guilt starts to weigh down your chest, especially as Rose looks so distraught.
“No! It’s fine,” you try and convince her. “You wanted to wait until you were sure.”
Rose nods, but still looks upset, and you know what will cheer her up. “Besides, I'm not going to be cross. I kissed Poe.”
You wince at Rose’s shout. “What!” She stands, bending to give you a hug, and you breathe in the familiar scent of her shampoo. You grin, much more naturally now, glad she’s happy. You tell her everything in much the same way she told you, the first time you’d slept together, and then the next time, how you’d argued, what had happened in the store cupboard.
“Is he coming back?” Rose asks.
You shrug. “I don’t know. He said he would, but I don’t know when.”
Rose settles properly into her chair, resting her feet on the edge of your bed frame, looking smug. You last all of two seconds. “What?”
Rose just closes her eyes, looking more and more pleased with herself by the second. “I just love being right.”
You attempt to kick her, but there’s no malice behind it. You spend the rest of the time discussing the latest topic of interest on base (Snap and Kare’s wedding), and what a recruit had apparently said to Leia, laughing the whole time.
***
When Poe returns, he’s carrying two plates. Rose had left a while ago, and you were idly poking through Poe’s datapad, seeing which holovids he’d downloaded.
The two of you eat your dinner quietly, Poe finishing before you. “Can I ask you something?” He looks nervous in a way that you’re not sure you’ve ever seen on him before, eyes shifting down, while his fingers dance nervously in his lap.
You nod, still chewing, not wanting to rush your dinner and unsure how to make Poe feel more at ease. You have a feeling you know what he’s going to ask, and -
“Can we be friends?”
Oh.
You swallow faster than you should, letting out a small cough. You place what’s left of your dinner to one side, and put your hands over his. “I shouldn’t have said that.” You start.
Poe opens his mouth to respond, but you shake your head before he can. “No, don’t - don’t say anything, just listen.”
Deep breath, in and out.
“What I meant was … friends don’t sleep together, Poe. And I know we never talked about it, but I didn’t realise how much I liked you and,” You take another deep breath and when you speak again, your voice is smaller than normal. “I didn’t like the way you flirted with that recruit.”
Poe grins with his teeth. “So you were jealous?”
You look away, not quite ready for that conversation. “Poe.” His name is a warning, and you’re tired.
So Poe lifts your hands, enveloping them in his and gently kisses them. “Sorry.” It’s a murmur. “When we realised you were gone, I’ve … I’ve never been so frightened. I begged Leia to go and find you but she wouldn’t let me.”
You look back at his face. “Good.” His smile is gentle now, and at this moment, you prefer it. “And I’m fine now, Rey and Finn found me …”
Poe rolls his eyes. “You are not fine, you’re in the medbay.”
He doesn’t say anything for a beat, fiddling with the hem of your sheet, and just when you think he won’t say anything else, he speaks again, his voice quiet and sure.
“I like you too. A lot. And I would quite like it if we could go on a date?”
You don’t reply immediately, letting a slow smile open up your face, nodding, suddenly shy. You want Poe closer, moving to the far edge of the bed and opening the sheet in a clear invitation. “C’mon, get up here.”
It says a lot, you later think, how keen he was to climb in next to you. His body is so warm and reassuring next to yours, a solid presence of real proof, that someone cares about you so much that it doesn’t matter how gross you are when you’re ill, they’ll stay for as long as they can.
You wait until he’s tucked in next to you, desperately ignoring how the machine behind you starts beeping faster. “I would love to go on a date.”
And then you groan. “This is so embarrassing.”
Poe laughs, his body shaking next to you. “You have to finally admit you fancied me all along.”
“Well so do you.”
You’re looking at Poe as you say it, and you don’t miss how his breath hitches a little. His face moves closer to yours, and your tongue darts out to wet your lips as your mouth suddenly feels dry.
Your heart rate speeds up again behind you, but you’re ignoring it, wanting Poe to kiss you. You’re disappointed when he speaks instead. “I like this monitor.”
His eyes are smiling, and stars he’s cute, even if he is being annoying.  
“What?” You’re confused, your eyes had been half-closed in preparation, and it takes a lot of effort to open them again.
“It tells me what you think.” You don’t stop looking at Poe’s lips as he talks.
“Yeah?” You’re breathless. “And what am I thinking right now?”
“That you like me this close.”
You hum, half-amused, half-annoyed. “Anything else?”
“I think you want to kiss me.”
You pretend to think about it, smiling back at him. “Do you?”
“Yes.” He’s so keen. “Do you?”
“I thought you knew the answer to that.” You’re teasing him, and he knows it. Your faces are closer than ever, breath mingling.
And Poe’s just looking at you like he could eat you, and it takes mere seconds before you crack. “Poe will you kiss me?”
“I was going to.”
You huff. “When?”
His hand cradles your jaw, thumb on your chin, and you bend into it, kissing his palm without breaking eye contact. “It won’t hurt you?”
You smile at him, reassured. “No.”
You can tell he’s still hesitant, so you kiss his hand again. “I’ll tell you if it hurts Poe.”
He inches closer and closer, so slowly, until his lips are touching yours. It’s soft, and gentle, like he’s kissing you for the first time. His hand moves to the back of your head, pulling you closer to him, as you open your mouth, deepening the kiss.
The date is a success, with the worst part enduring Rose’s teasing, and your promise to never doubt her again.

Thanks for reading! Reblog and comments mean the world to me 🥰🥰🥰
Aaaaah I’ve finally finished! This has been such a blast to write (but not chapter 5 lmao) and I’ve learned so much about my writing style and what i struggle with (plot I’m looking at you). This series started as a short one-shot which was going to be divided into 4 sections, detailing how reader and Poe’s relationship changed, and what I’ve ended up with is so so so different - my original outline had no kidnapping and was wildly different honestly, but I’m really proud of this - back in June/July i hardly had the patience/concentration to sit and finish a one-shot, let alone a whole series! Thank you to everyone who stuck with this story, I love you all!

Biting Dust - Ch. 5
Tumblr media
Life ain’t too easy for a woman, ‘specially not a woman on the run like you. With a bounty on your head and gunpowder in your nose, you’ve grown adjusted to a life of solitude away from the hustle and bustle of civilization. That is, until you meet one particular man who’s got a face you’d only ever seen in your dreams – or on wanted posters. And when he offers you a proposition that sounds too good to be true, well. You don’t think your life will ever be the same again…
Outlaw!Kylo Ren x Reader
Tumblr Masterlist | Available on AO3
6k; Warnings: Attempted assault, attempted murder
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Red clouds of earth kick up behind your horse’s hooves as they gallop far past the town line, hootin’ and hollerin’ all the while. The wind whips your hair around, your bonnet flung right off your head, held onto your person only by the wide ribbon that’s kept it tied ‘round your throat. Adrenaline pumps through your body, makes your vision spotty, makes your heart beat fast fast fast, ridin’ like lightning away from Ragrock.
Kylo’s right beside you, makin’ just as much damn noise as you, his crooked teeth gleamin’ gold in the blazin’ Arizona sun. You ain’t never see him grin this big, as he shouts and jeers too, challengin’ the canyons and the desert, darin’ them to take this moment away from the both of you.
“I can’t fuckin’ believe you!” You laugh, voice nearly gettin’ lost in the wind, cheeks hurtin’ from the way you’re smilin’ so much, “Goddamn you’re so -- so -- stupid!”
Kylo laughs at that too, a deep rumblin’ sound that feels so much like thunder that you’re sure it’s shakin’ the earth. Or maybe that’s Sam and Agnes, the way they’re throwin’ their heads back and whinnying and stampin’ their hooves into the caked dirt below. Either way, it’s a good sound, one of them sounds that makes you ache in your bones; you can’t remember the last time you heard someone else laugh so genuinely.
“Yeah?” He finally decides to slow Sam to a halt, and you do the same, tuggin’ on Aggie’s reigns to get her to calm just a little bit, the horses powerful legs comin’ to a gentle trot, both you and Kylo gulpin’ down air.
“Yeah. Why the hell did you bring us through there knowin’ there was bad blood?” You reach into the saddle bag and pull out a canteen, measurin’ a careful sip or two of the fresh river water, before decidin’ to pass the jug over to Kylo himself.
Gratefully, he takes the same size sip as you, and you think that’s mighty chivalrous of him once again, on account of he’s a much bigger person than you, and should clearly need more water. Still, you don’t protest when he hands the canteen back to you, the lid screwed on nice and tight to avoid spillin’.
“It was the only place I could think of that’s close enough.” He shrugs, and you frown ever so slightly at that, knowin’ that really, as long as you stay close to the Colorado River, you’ll have just about anything you need.
Well, almost, anyway.
“Close enough for what?” Your curiosity gets the better of you, especially when he starts rummagin’ around in his own saddle-bag for somethin’. You lean over, tryin’ to be nosy and get a peek inside, but he only clicks his tongue against the roof of his mouth, and you duck your head, embarrassed at bein’ caught.
“For this,” Kylo doesn’t make you wait though, pullin’ out a couple boxes of bullets, but much more importantly, “And these.”
When Kylo pulls out the burlap sack filled with coins, your eyes widen. Right there in his fist has to be over five hundred dollars in gold and silver, more money than you’ve ever seen in one place save for the banks you burn. It makes your mouth go dry, and you wonder how he got a hold of it all, if he took it from the cash register by force, or if he stole it discreetly.
“Holy shit, no wonder you were takin’ so damn long.” You urge Aggie a little closer to get a better look, darin’ to stick your hand in the bag and scoop up a handful of the coins. They were heavy, heavy and real.
“I figured you wouldn’t be opposed.” Kylo speaks quietly as your hands let the coins fall between your fingers, clinking together back in the sack. He gives you the sack then, lets the weight of it rest in your hands, clearin’ his voice, “We’ll need it for Ruby City.”
Without a thought, you push it back into his hand. He was the one who had stolen it, it belonged to him. Yes you were out of money, your own coin purse completely empty, but...but you had more pride than that, to accept someone else’s hard earned coin. Even if he had earned it wrongly, it was still his.
Besides, you reckon as you shake your head when he tries to give it back once again, Kylo was right -- it’s less suspicious to travel with a man, and if you’re traveling together, he better be the one to handle the money.
Kylo seems to read your thoughts, and he just nods, before taking a couple coins out and handing them to you, fifty bucks weighin’ on your palm.
“Just take the fuckin’ money.” He says with a small smile. “I won’t hear any ‘no’, it’s yours too, for helpin’ me by distractin’ the townfolk.”
You sigh, and reluctantly put the coins in your own small purse. For the first time in a while, the fabric is bulged out and heavy. Kylo puts the burlap sack back in his saddle-bag, and you resolve to ignore its existence until you need him to pay for a room at an inn somewhere.
“Should’ve warned me that you knew the damn bartender.” You scold him then, a little disgruntled that he had kept that information from you. If you were going to be a distraction, you would’ve liked to know exactly who it was you’re distractin’. “Should’ve told me y’all hated each other.”
You don’t tell Kylo that you were flirtin’ with that Armitage, certain that he wouldn’t like it. He sure as hell didn’t like it when Amos was gettin’ a little too friendly with you, anyway, and he was just a stranger. To your surprise though, Kylo scoffs out a laugh, and fishes out his old cigarette from the inside of his boot, lightin’ it with a match and puffin’ smoke through his nose.
“Hate?” He’s got humor in his voice as he urges Sam forward, needin’ to get back towards the water’s edge before the sun sank too low in the sky, “Nah, Hux and I go way back. He’s a good friend.”
You level him a dirty glare at that, if only he had told you he coulda’ saved you a world of panic! You think about the way that Armitage shot out his own windows, the way that Kylo managed to murder Armitage’s brother without any guns of his own, and all the damn fallout that came from it.
“Didn’t seem to be actin’ like a good friend when he was aimin’ his shotgun at your face.” You point out, thinkin’ to yourself, men are so goddamn strange.
Kylo laughs again, and you find yourself growin’ dangerously used to the sound, so you just sigh and shake your head. He smokes and smokes, both of your horses leadin’ you closer to the water, havin’ galloped away from it ever so slightly.
“He likes when I come rollin’ through, trust me. He always complains about how quiet his lil’ town of Ragrock gets, likes to give the folks somethin’ to gossip about every now and again.” Kylo explains, patton’ Sam’s neck and flashin’ you a gold-tipped smile.
“So he really wasn’t going to kill us then?” You raise an eyebrow at him.
“Oh no he probably would’ve if I let him.” Kylo answers quickly, “‘Specially after what I did to Brian. But he’ll be fine with it in a couple weeks once folks tell him I wasn’t the one that started nothin’.”
You stare at him for a little while, and he can feel the weight of your gaze on him, but he only gives you a crooked smile and a wink. You weren’t so sure what that wink meant, but if you had to guess, it could really only mean trouble.
“You’re somethin’ else, you know that?” You lick across your teeth to prevent yourself from smilin’ and givin’ him the satisfaction of knowing that he entertains you. The grin he gives you tells you he knows it anyway.
“Nothin’ that you can’t handle though, I reckon.” Counterin’ with a slight smile, Kylo ducks his head and blushes, and that alone is enough to make you tap your heels against Aggie’s hide, to get her to go gallopin’ down the canyons again.
-----------------------
Some hours later, when the world around you starts to cool off from the settin’ of the sun, you and Kylo set up camp near the river. He had gone ahead and scouted the spot out, made sure there weren’t any folks who had already laid claim to that particular stretch of the bend, no one that could go cousin’ any trouble.
There was more than enough money now, to buy new stocks of food whenever y’all got to the next stop along the route, but that didn’t mean that you were about to let Kylo blow through the supply. So instead, you ask he hunt you down another rabbit for dinner, which he does in less than a half hour, impressin’ you once again.
It’s quiet, out there by the river. The sky has faded to a gentle purple, the silvery moon high in the sky. You’ve got a fire made, nothin’ too big or roarin’, just tall enough to heat up the cast-iron pot that you’ve got hangin’ over it by an iron stake. That rabbit is stewin’ in the pot, along with some water, beans, cut up carrots and a little bit of rice. You stir the pot, listenin’ to the sound of the river as it trickles past.
The sweet sound of a harmonica sounds then, and your gaze snaps up to see Kylo with the instrument against his lips. His eyes are closed, and he’s breathin’ nice and even, the high tune of a melody makin’ your throat choke up. It was a tune you knew all too well, once upon a time, a long time ago.
You stir the stew, chewin’ on the side of your cheek, until somethin’ in you compels you to sing. Your voice is a little rusty, but it doesn’t deter Kylo one bit, in fact, when he catches wind of you singin’ along to his tune, he plays a little louder, a little clearer, switchin’ to the harmony as you take over the melody to the sad cowboy song that you once used to teach yourself,
"O bury me not on the lone prairie."
These words came low and mournfully
From the pallid lips of the youth who lay
On his dying bed at the close of day.
He had wasted and pined 'til o'er his brow
Death's shades were slowly gathering now
He thought of home and loved ones nigh,
As the cowboys gathered to see him die.
"O bury me not on the lone prairie
Where coyotes howl and the wind blows free
In a narrow grave just six by three—
O bury me not on the lone prairie"
"It matters not, I've been told,
Where the body lies when the heart grows cold
Yet grant, o grant, this wish to me
O bury me not on the lone prairie."
Kylo sets down his harmonica then, and you blink away a light mistiness in your eye. It ain’t good to dwell on the past, you know, but sometimes, times like these, you can’t help but think ‘bout it. Kylo’s blinkin’ away somethin’ too, you notice, so as you stir the stew and determine the rabbit and vegetable and rice are all as cooked as they need to be, you ladle a big bowl for you and for this man who has become the closest thing to a companion you’ve ever had in your life, and you take it over to him.
He doesn’t move, doesn’t speak, not for a while. You simply sit down next to him, as close to him as you’ve gotten since that time in the river, and hand him the bowl and spoon. He accepts it gratefully, his own gaze cast into the fire, and not for the first time, you wonder what’s goin’ on in his head.
After a couple bites of the stew, you rest your head on his shoulder. It’s a tentative motion, a hesitant one. Kylo holds his breath, you can feel it in the way he tenses ever so slightly, but he doesn’t tell you to move, and that’s as good of an invitation to stay as any, you reckon.
“You can’t go lookin’ at me like that, by the by.” Breaking the silence, you slurp down a spoonful of stew yourself, lookin’ into the comforting vision of the flames which flicker and flare gently in front of you.
“Hm?”
“If we’re meant to be cousins,” You explain, voice soft and kind, knowin’ that you’ve been too hard on him these past couple days. “You can’t be givin’ me those eyes of yours. Folks might see through the ruse.”
Kylo surprises you by shruggin’ with his other shoulder, his cheeks crinklin’ into a smile. His dimples crease, and he chews on his lip a little, keepin’ his eyes down as he blushes.
“Folks marry their cousins all the time, it wouldn’t be so strange.” Kylo nearly whispers, almost like he’s afraid to speak the words, rushes quickly to try and change the subject as soon as he’s said it, “Hell, my mother almost married her own damn brother on accident -- but that’s a long and complicated story.”
“Oh so we’re married now.” You smile, feelin’ the heat rise to your own cheeks. It’s less of a question and more of a statement, the way you say it, and you find that against your own better judgement, you like the way it sounds. You like the idea of it, and that makes butterflies spark up in your stomach, a feelin’ you ain’t so used to.
“We could be.” Kylo doesn’t dare look at you, idly stirring his bowl, “We could pretend, anyway.”
You think for a second about what that might be like -- but then you shake your head a little and sigh, “I made a promise I’d never be a meek housewife.”
“Ain’t no one here callin’ you meek.” Kylo reassures you, and now it’s your turn to duck your head, to rest it against his shoulder a little more. Your heart beats wildly in your chest, you wonder if he can hear it out there in the quiet of night.
“Be my cousin, for just a little while longer.” You whisper, a silent plea to just give you some more time, “Until we make it to Ruby City.”
“I can’t get a good read on you.” Kylo hums, and you’re relieved to hear that he’s not got an angry or disappointed edge to his tone.
He really does respect you, you realize all of a sudden. Maybe it’s foolish to come to that conclusion so soon, so quickly after you’ve met him, but you can’t help but come to it nonetheless. He’s done nothin’ but respect you this whole time, and you don’t know what to do about that. It’s never happened before.
“What’s that supposed to mean?” You ask, a hint of a smile on your lips.
“It means that you’re the most mysterious damn woman I’ve ever met.” He replies easily, a smile on his own.
“I have to be.” Shrugging, you eat another bite of the stew, wishin’ you had some spices to throw in it. You hope Kylo doesn’t think it’s too bland -- before growin’ bashful again, at the thought that you want him to enjoy your cookin’.
“Why’s that?”
“Because the more people that know about me, the less safe I am.”
“I told you -- ”
“I know, you ain’t gonna hurt me, I know.” You interrupt him, before sighing, wondering if you were really going to do this, if you were really going to tell him. “That’s not what I meant.”
Kylo senses a shift in the air, a change in the atmosphere, and his teasing playful smile melts into something a little more somber, more serious. He watches you, and waits for what you have to say, and you decide that what the hell -- if you couldn’t tell Kylo, you couldn’t tell anyone at all.
“I didn’t always used to be an outlaw, you know.” Setting down your bowl of stew, you fidget with the hem of your blue dress’ skirt, and look into the fire, your memory transporting you to a place and time that felt like a million years ago. “There was a time, a long time ago, that I was a school teacher, in a tiny town in the middle of nowhere Utah...”
-----------------------
You were young, when you started teachin’ at the school. It had always been your favorite place when you were growin’ up, and when the teacher herself got married and moved away, you jumped at the vacancy at once. This was the only way a young woman like yourself could earn a living with her clothes on, you knew that, and though you were barely older than the students that came to your classes, you took your job seriously.
It had been a bright sunny morning in Spring the day you turned sixteen, when the bells tolled for all the school children to come rushing to your door. Standing outside the single room schoolhouse, you had a cheerful smile on your face as you welcomed the students that you had come to love and care for, as they bounded up the few steps and into the wooden building. Ranging in age from as young as five, to as old as twelve, two dozen students took to their seats, fresh faced and recently washed, hair combed for their lessons.
“Good mornin’ class!” You walk to the front of the room once the bell finishes tolling, picking up a piece of chalk and writing out the first line to a popular sea shanty turned folk song, your delicate cursive spelling, ‘O Bury Me Not On The Lone Prairie.’
“Good morning Miss (L/N)!” The class responds in happy unison. One of your students, a young girl named Wendy quickly gets out of her seat to place an apple on your desk before hurrying back.
You smile at her, at all of them, having grown so fond of this mis-matched group of kids that have been placed in your care for the weekdays.
“I trust y’all had a good weekend?” You ask them, met with a chorus of overlapping affirmations, and you chuckle at their response to immediately wantin’ to tell you all about everything they did on their days off. “Good, I’m glad. Now if you would buddy up and please take out your textbook, we’ll pick up where we left off on Friday.”
The McGuffey reader was your go-to book to teach the children with, it had everything you needed -- reading, writing, and arithmetic that was easy enough to understand by even the littlest of your students. It was broken down into repetition, phonetics, and even had lines to trace the letters and numbers, but more than that, it was the book you yourself had learned to read by, so you were familiar enough with it.
“Who would like to be the first to read what I’ve got written up on the board?” You ask, once they’ve all opened their books to the appropriate page, a handful of eager students at once clamoring to volunteer.
And so, like any other day, the morning turned to afternoon, and the afternoon turned to evening. When the bells rang to dismiss the class, the children groaned, knowing that meant they had to go home where their family would likely put them to work in the field or in the kitchen for an hour before supper.
“Thank you for another wonderful day children, y’all be good for your parents now, you hear?” You try to encourage them to cheer up, even if it did warm your heart that they liked learning from you so much. “Oh, Rickie? Could you come here for a minute? You’re not in trouble, I promise.”
Sitting at your desk for a moment, you saw the earring that you had stashed in your drawer from the evening prior, and you fish it out as the ten year old skips over to you, his mousy brown hair flopping around as he does. You smile, thinkin’ that he might do to ask for a trim when he gets home.
“Yes ma’am?” Rickie stands before the desk, and you hand him the earring, his eyes going wide as he recognizes it.
“Could you do me a big favor and deliver this to your Mama? She must’ve dropped it here last night and I’m sure she’s goin’ crazy lookin’ for it.” You smile, and he nods happily.
“She sure is! Earned myself a smack upside the head I did, when she thought I snatched it from her dresser!” Rickie laughs, clearly glad to have been vindicated.
“Well I’m sure she’ll be sorry when you bring it back to her, let her know I was the one who had it, not you.” You smile back warmly at him, but he’s already runnin’ out of the schoolhouse, callin’ another thanks and a goodbye behind him as he goes.
Only a moment or two before the last of your students are gone, is there a knock on the door.
He doesn’t wait for an answer before coming in anyway, and you look up with a frown to see who would be so rude as to invite themselves, until you recognize the sheriff and put a forced smile upon your face.
“Hello sheriff, how are you this fine evenin’?” You present yourself as politely as possible, as the man’s spurs clink while those heavy boots of his walk across your floors, trackin’ mud in from the outside with little care.
You didn’t like him, the sheriff. Didn’t like the way you caught him starin’ at you sometimes, didn’t like the way you caught him starin’ at the girls in your class. He was one of the oldest fellas in town, maybe three times your age. He’s starin’ at you now, eyein’ you up and down in a way that makes your skin crawl.
“I’m doin’ well honey, thank you.” The sheriff chews on some tobacco, a habit you can’t stand, before pointin’ out the door behind him and askin’ with a stern voice, “That boy wasn’t givin’ you any trouble, was he?”
“Rickie? No of course not, he’s a good kid.” You’re quick to reply, not wantin’ to cause any trouble for the young farmboy. You and the sheriff look at each other for a moment or two, before you grow more and more uncomfortable, busyin’ your hands with the worksheets that’ve been left on your desk to grade. You clear your throat, “Is -- has somethin’ happened?”
“Naw, I just wanted to come by and see ya before your night class starts.” The sheriff’s spurs clink clink clink over to the desk where he sits himself down, right on the wooden table-top.
“Well, here I am. Can I offer you somethin’ to drink? Coffee?” You try your best to be polite, hoping that one of your night students -- adults from the town who never got to go to school when they were young -- might show up and come to your rescue.
“Not tonight, thank you.” He replies, making you sigh out with relief against your better judgement. He doesn’t notice, instead you can feel his gaze on your chest, “But, if you’re free this friday evenin’, I’d love to take you up on that offer.”
“Oh...I see.” Bile rising up in the back of your throat, you shake your head and try to reject him as politely as possible, voice clipped yet firm as you move from around the desk to the chalk-board where you erase the children’s lesson and prepare for the adult’s. “Sheriff, I’m sorry but, I’m not quite interested in seein’ anyone at present.”
“And why’s that?” He doesn’t leave you alone, and you begin to panic with the way he’s steppin’ closer to you, knowin’ that if he traps you against the board, there won’t be a clear path to escape.
“Well it ain’t allowed for a woman to be datin’ while she’s a schoolteacher.” You explain, your voice starting to wobble.
Something about that makes him chuckle, somethin’ sinister, his blackened teeth from all that damn tobacco too close to your face when he grins.
“Must be awfully lonely,” Sheriff runs his hand up your arm, “Missin’ the comfort of a man at night.”
“It’s not.” Your body shudders in revolt, and you try to side step him, blood pounding in your ears, eyes wide in distress as you feel sweat bead up and trickle down the back of your thigh, “I appreciate your concern but -- ”
“Let me just get one kiss then.” He doesn’t let you go that easily, grabbing your arm harshly and dragging you over to one of the desks where he pushes you with a rough shove. His hand grips your cheek too hard, forcing your mouth to pucker as you fight him.
“Sheriff, I said no -- please get away from me -- I don’t -- don’t touch me!!” You knee him hard straight in the groin, your panicked scream alerting the adults who had thankfully, miraculously, decided to show up for evening class early.
“Miss (L/N)!” A couple of cattle ranchers kick the door open and run to your side, tugging you away from the sheriff who laughs loudly. You smell the stench of alcohol on him, realizing he’s drunk as all hell, and cling to the strong rancher, tears threatening to spill over your eyes.
“Don’t you ever fucking touch our teacher again!” One of the ranchers, a nice man named Francisco, holds you tightly, protectively. You always liked Francisco, he treated you like a daughter he never got to have. The other, Jedidiah, stands firmly next to you, so ready to lunge at the sheriff that you can’t help but feel immense gratitude towards them.
“Everythin’s just fine son, run along now.” The sheriff chuckles, but neither Francisco nor Jedidiah move a muscle.
“Sheriff I think you need to leave.” Mustering up as much of your courage as possible, you speak clearly, willing your voice not to shake as the safety of Francisco’s arms give you strength, “Class begins soon, I’m sorry.”
The ranchers stare the sheriff down, and he stares back, before noddin’ with a sick understandin’ that you reckon means this won’t be the last you see of him. Spittin’ his tobacco onto the floor, that same floor he sullied with the mud under his boots after the children had so lovingly cleaned it with you, the sheriff turned on his heel and left, pausin’ at the doorway for a moment to send you a dark, threatenin’ chuckle, “You will be.”
“Are you alright Miss (L/N)? Did he hurt you?” Jedidiah takes his cap off and kneels in front of you, tryin’ to appear as non-threatenin’ as possible. Francisco releases his hold on you, and checks you for any marks or signs of stress, but you just let out a shudderin’ breath and shake your head. You’re not sure which question that’s meant to answer, but they don’t press you.
“Who do we call when the sheriff’s the one acting out?” Francisco wonders aloud, and you feel like there’s lead in your belly, because he’s right.
The only way you’d likely be able to avoid the sheriff and his wrath would be to leave town altogether, and well, you couldn’t do that. Who would keep after the students then?
There wasn’t any trouble during the lesson that evening, much to your satisfaction. The later it got in the night, the more you felt relieved, surely if the sheriff was going to cause trouble, he would’ve done so by now. Your students can tell that there’s something off about you though, a few of them approachin’ you after the class was done, wonderin’ if there was anythin’ they could do.
In hindsight, you wonder how different your life would’ve been, had you asked to stay with one of them for the evening, or had you asked one of them to stay with you.
The chokin’ woke you up, before anythin’ else. Smoke, thick black plumes of it pouring out of the windows, the doors. Smoke in your lungs that had your body joltin’ up and out of the little bed up in the attic where you lived above the schoolhouse, had you rollin’ onto the floor in a panic.
“No!” You shout, as the heat of red orange yellow flames begins to lick up the walls, eatin’ away at the wood structure of the building, the whole thing two steps from bein’ a blazin’ bonfire out in the field, “Oh god, oh god no!”
Frantic, you run, mind going blank, trying to focus on grabbin’ the important things, only the important things; a photo of your family, the money out of the dresser, a copy of your favorite book. That was it, all you had that you could think to grab, before trying for the door.
The handle burns, and you scream, shaking the pain away from the blisteringly hot doorknob. You’re fucked, oh you’re so fucked, you think as you back up enough to barrel your way through the door, the wood shattering and splintering. The fire reached all the way up to the attic, there was nowhere you could escape. You could jump out the window, but you’d break your neck landin’ on the hard ground. Outside, someone yells, revelin’ in the way that you scream.
“If I can’t have you, ain’t nobody gets to have you, hear that? You hear that bitch?” The sheriff cackles tauntingly, and the fear of death drips icy cold down your back, compels you to run as fast as you can down the wooden rickety stairs, into the blaze.
If you can just get out, if only you can get out of this building, maybe you’ll survive, maybe you --“No!”
One of the stairs has shattered beneath your feet, your foot stomping straight through it, trapped. You cough and hack up the smoke, it’s stinging your eyes, it’s in your lungs, soot in your mouth, you can’t see, oh god it’s so hot, the flames are surrounding you, and your foot is stuck through the stairs.
“Please, please come on you’re strong enough for this, you have to be strong enough for this, come on.” You sob, willing yourself, yanking your foot out in harsh movements as the laughter screeches around you in a drunken stupor.
Eventually, in all your efforts, the structure of the stairs give away entirely, and you try to grab onto something as the floor falls beneath your feet, sending you crashing down into the classroom below. The fire’s taken everything here; the wallpaper, the tables and chairs, even the shiny apple that Wendy sat on your desk, all reduced to ash, cracking and spitting in the flames.
You’ve hit your head from the fall, you can’t move. Somethin’s pinned your legs, you can’t feel nothin’. At least there ain’t any smoke down here, all of it risin’ up up up through the building. The smoke pushes the bells, make them toll. You wonder if they’re callin’ the Reaper, tears slippin’ down your cheeks.
“All the books, oh the poor children.” You whisper, thinkin’ of them all, watchin’ as the textbooks singe to nothingness, knowin’ that soon your body will follow, “Who’s going to teach the children?”
-----------------------
Kylo’s arm is around you, you realize, out there in the present. He’s stock-still, face gone pale, somber. He’s crying, you realize, jaw clenched tight, the muscle in his cheek flexing from the force of it. You’re crying too, wetness on your face. You watch as a tear plips into the rabbit stew, and you’re not entirely sure if it’s one of yours, or Kylo’s.
“The rest of the town came to my rescue, once the flames got so bright you could see ‘em from across the fields. They thought I was dead, when they found me.” You clear your throat, rememberin’ the details of the story that you had only found out after the fact, “I was covered in soot, breathed too much of it in, I wasn’t wakin’ up. I later found out that the sheriff didn’t let them give me a funeral, just told them to stick me in a coffin and gave me a shallow grave.”
Kylo remains quiet, but the arm around you tightens. You’re reminded of Francisco then, how he had protected you. You wonder where he is, what he’s doing. If he ever got to have a daughter.
“I was glad for that part at least, it wasn’t too hard to dig my way back out when I woke up. I must’ve only been there for a couple hours, the dirt wasn’t packed tight or nothin’, thankfully.” You sigh, not knowing when to stop, now knowin’ how to do any of this, how to be vulnerable like this. You ain’t had to be vulnerable in a long, long time.
“Must’ve been out of my mind, I had never thought about killin’ anyone before, you know. I was more angry about the loss of the school than I was for my own life, if you can believe. I hunted him down, the sheriff. He thought I was a ghost, and he hid from me. I found him in the end, doused him in kerosene and lit the sonofabitch on fire right on his front porch.”
You lean your head on Kylo’s shoulder, and ever so gently, he rests his cheek against you back.
“I was sixteen then, and “I’ve been burnin’ shit down to the ground ever since.” You whisper, voice almost lost by the trickle of the river as it flows down to Colorado.
“I’m sorry.” Kylo says, snuffling into your hair a little bit, holdin’ you close, a silent promise.
“It ain’t your fault.” You reply, fightin’ that sour feelin’ in the back of your throat, nudging your face a little closer into his neck.
“If I had been there, I would’ve helped you.” He says, even though you both know that there ain’t no changin’ the past.
“You’re here now.” You pull back enough to look at him, really look at him right in the eyes.
“Yeah, I am.” He nods.
You wonder, sometimes how life might’ve been different, but after all is said and done, this is the life you’ve got.
Kylo lies down then, one arm extended out from his body, an offer.
You don’t think twice about it, when you lay down next to him, your head usin’ that arm as a pillow. It wraps around your shoulder, tuggin’ you to Kylo’s chest, and for the first time in a long time, when you sleep, you don’t dream.
"I've always wished to be laid when I died
In a little churchyard on the green hillside
By my father's grave, there let me be,
O bury me not on the lone prairie."
"I wish to lie where a mother's prayer
And a sister's tear will mingle there.
Where friends can come and weep o'er me.
O bury me not on the lone prairie."
"For there's another whose tears will shed.
For the one who lies in a prairie bed.
It breaks me heart to think of her now,
She has curled these locks, she has kissed this brow."
"O bury me not..." And his voice failed there.
But they took no heed to his dying prayer.
In a narrow grave, just six by three
They buried him there on the lone prairie.
And the cowboys now as they roam the plain,
For they marked the spot where his bones were lain,
Fling a handful o' roses o'er his grave
With a prayer to God his soul to save.

Taggin' some Kylo lovin' friends!
