MISERY LOVES ME — private

[dannychan]

He nodded and squeezed his hand gently. "You're going to be ok."

"I know. I'm an adult now. He can't hurt me." He said softly, although it sounded more like he was reassuring himself. He led the other through the ship, keeping his hand in Kylo's. He didn't usually like public displays like hand holding, but if he was being honest he wanted to shove the fact that he was dating Kylo in his Father's face, since he could still remember how his Father had been furious when he'd told him he was gay. He could specifically remember the bruises he had had to hide after that day. A shiver went up his spine as he walked into the landing bay, watching his father walk down the ramp of his shuttle.

Kylo watched, and slowly stood from his normal slouch to his full height (which was much taller than Brendon)

Hux had to resist the urge to lean into the other as Kylo rose to his full height, still feeling much safer with him here. As Brendol came over, he let out a little hissing breath. Brendol said quietly, smiling a bit cruelly, "Hello, Armitage, it's a pleasure to see you again." Hux took a deep breath and moved to shake his Father's hand, saying softly, "It's good to see you again too, Father." Brendol's eyes seemed to trail down to Kylo's and Hux's clasped together ones, and he raised an eyebrow, saying stiffly, "I didn't realize you had been shirking on your duties to get involved with Snoke's attack dog." Hux flinched and hissed a bit too quickly in retaliation, "Father, this is Kylo Ren. I expect you to refer to him by his actual title."

Kylo growled. "Listen, old man. You're on our ship now, so unless you'd like to end up dead, I suggest you respect the both of us and watch that big mouth of yours." He growled.

Hux winced and said softly, "Kylo, calm down.." Meanwhile, Brendol scoffed and said, glaring up at the other, "I'm sorry if I'm a bit curious about my failure of a son getting involved with what will no doubt be the failure of the entire First Order. I thought we had learned our lesson with Vader about force users not doing anything useful."

[dannychan]

He stuck out his hand so quickly that it was just a flash of black, closing his flat to force choke the man.

[peridot.]

As his Father started to choke, gasping and clawing at his neck, Hux squeaked and moved to Kylo's chest, scolding as he looked up at the other, "Kylo! Put him down, he's just trying to provoke you!"

[dannychan]

He nodded and held him for a while long. Lulu need to stop shaking. He's probably going to shake your hand.. I can try using the force to stop the shaking.l

[peridot.]

He mumbled quietly, taking a deep breath and shoving his fear down, "I-I'm fine. I'm fine. There's no need for that." He stepped away from Kylo, taking another deep breath and reaching for the other's hand, " C'mon, let's go to the landing bay."
