For the briefest of moments, Rey gets that irresistible urge to pop the top and toss the liquid. One, it would certainly be a waste of good coffee. Two, she was too smart and too mature to stoop to that level of retribution.
Snatching the cup, she levels him a scathing look. Probably a little more scathing than it should be over a coffee mix-up. But to Rey, it was the principle of the thing. Some unspoken way of society that manners should be a thing that everyone has. Even tall, dark, mannerless buffoons like this guy.
“Is that all you have to say? ‘Oh’?” A fleeting thought of ‘pot, kettle’ brushed across the logical part of her mind. Just take the high road. Brush it off. Don’t even acknowledge. Take your precious coffee and leave. Textbooks are calling her name, calling for her attention, calling for her time. Which she most certainly shouldn’t be wasting.
There’s a crack in the calm demeanor she’s sporting that immediately follows his response, a façade that is quick to crumble, leaving naught but irritation in its wake. It does not go unnoticed to him, albeit he remains harshly passive. Kylo meets her scornful gaze with one of practiced indifference, one shapely brow lofting up towards his forehead upon her query.
Well, he was going to resist provoking her further, but how could he say no when she was already so riled up?
He needed a break from studying, anyway.
“ You’re right, a simple ‘oh’ is not efficient by any means. ” A burnished gaze remains fixed on the girl glaring back at him, and he looks down at her in a way that is more than just physical.
“ You are forgiven for this mix-up, and for wasting my time with such trivial chitchat. Now, be on your way, girl. ”
He halts dead in his pace, composure wavering for the briefest of seconds as a burnished gaze fixes on the silhouette before him. Gloved digits move to rest on the hilt of his saber as he surveys the mechanical visage before him, a visage he had come to idolize so thoroughly – a visage that has been long since DEAD.
This must be a jest of some sort. That’s the only reasonable explanation he can conclude.
“ You are aboard the Finalizer. ” Leather clad fingers tighten around his weapon, though still refrain from unhinging it quite yet. “ What is your purpose here, impostor? ”
As quick as the Knight had been on the floor, he was even quicker in reclaiming his composure and scrambling back to his feet. His gaze had locked quite briefly with his sparring partner in those moments, riddled with his chagrin toward a situation that humiliated him more than he’d ever let on. How often did their positions wind up precisely as they did now?
Hans chose not to dwell on it.
Pointedly and decidedly indignant, he smoothed wrinkles from his dark cloak and regarded Kylo with an all but concealed sneer. “Perhaps I simply prefer being close and personal with my foes. What sort of thrill is it to blast them to pieces from such a distance?” A brow began to rise in mirror of the other’s expression.
He notes the urgency of his warrior’s movements, the haste in which he gets back to his feet with. Yes, good. Never grant your foe the upper hand, always get back up. Emerald beacons clash with his own for but a moment, and then Hans’ attention falls to his robes, and he diverts his focus from his ENEMY to groom his appearance.
STRIKE ONE.
“ Oh? And do you obtain the same aforementioned thrill from being vanquished so easily? ” He’s testing him now, rubbing salt in the wound with gasoline fingers to ignite that spark of lowset anger that he feels within his Knight; fans it higher, hotter. Feel it, Hans. Use it.
There is no pretense of warning as Kylo lunges forwards again, swings his saber with the brute of his strength. It’s plasmatic hum reverberates through the room as it clashes with the end of his student’s stun baton.
They had approached her when she had returned from a job. She had been covered in dirt and grime, blood crusting into her blonde hair. Apparently, they had been watching her for some time (something she found incredibly unsettling) and wanted her to work for them.
The First Order wasn’t the first organization that had approached Myra, nor did she believe it would be the last. She had a specialized set of skills that many would wish to have themselves, and paid immense amounts of credits to borrow. But those were temporary jobs. The one the First Order offered was more of a permanent one.
At least she’d have a place to rest.
But the moment she saw the white armored soldiers she was supposedly going to join, she immediately regretted her decision. She didn’t want to fade into the groups. She didn’t want to become another number to these people. She was Myra Nicos, an individual, not just another body.
So, instead of taking her anger out on the men who had approached her, she channeled it in the training room. Her blonde hair hung loose in her face, and her skin glistened with sweat as she sparred with Trooper after Trooper.
It comes to him in waves; at first, but a mere, fleeting warmth, like ultraviolet rays against sunkissed skin, albeit it quickly evolves into something far more violent; a primal scald that burns like a hearth, dangerous in its intent. He is drawn to her – this new Stormtrooper, FN4963, was it? – no, not her; her anger, which proved to be quite a formidable thing in itself. He could feel it, hot and incessant in a phantom chest as if it were his own.
Heavy footfalls carry him through the monochrome corridors; an artificial gaze remains set on the expanse before him, he doesn’t even spare a glance to the Troopers that pass him by. They are his subordinates, after all. Yet, ironically, here he is, on his way to inquire about one of his said subordinates.
He reaches the training chambers within minutes, halts a few paces in from the threshold once the pneumatic door seals behind him. He observes with a quiet dominance as she spars with the other Troopers, and bests a vast majority of them. He’s genuinely impressed by her performance, but he’ll never admit that.
Kylo is still for a few moments more before he advances, confident in his stride across the padded flat beneath him. His attention is fixed on her, and he dismisses their company with but a wave of a leather clad hand. A pause, and then he speaks, voice warped by the integrated vocabulator built into his mask.
I like the idea of Leia confronting Ren all composed till the moment where she calls him son. Then it breaks both of them. Sorry dont mind me, I have to many feels at the moment. Sorry :’V
DISCLAIMER: In no way whatsoever do I condone my muse’s behavior. Kylo is a villain, thus, I will play him as such. Please do not expect me to soften his demeanor to please you or your muse. This blog will contain triggers including but not limited to; dissociation, abuse, dark themes, emotional & mental manipulation, death etc. Please let me know if you need me to tag anything else for you, and I will be happy to do so! If any of these themes make you uncomfortable, then I highly recommend you please DO NOT FOLLOW ME, as these traits are vital to Kylo’s character, and I can only censor so much.
Responses may be slow. Please be patient with me. Thank you!
This blog is selective, meaning I will roleplay with most, but not everyone. I look for two things in a blog; an about, and a rules page. If these are not present, I probably won’t follow you back. Sorry!
Yes, I’m one of those people that thoroughly enjoys plotting before interaction occurs. I thrive off of genuine interaction and relationship building - I’m here to write a story with you. I’ll still post plotless opens now and again, but for any major thread, I’m gonna request that we plot it out first - and in result I’ll probably scream at you about it 24/7 because I am way too invested in this muse.
This blog is multiverse, but it does indeed have a mainverse with Warforged. That being said, interaction with other General Hux blogs is welcomed, but I ship Kylo exclusively with the loser I mentioned before, meaning he won’t engage in romantic ships with any other Hux’s. In regards to other ships with Kylo, I will be very selective. Heavy plotting will be a necessity, and if anything sparks, it’ll be a slow-burn, as he is by no means in the right mental space for a healthy romantic relationship. Kylo is more here for platonic interactions, anyways.
Mun and muse are both 18+. NSFW might be present. Everything will be tagged accordingly.

Timeline ; Set in current movie verse.
❝ I’m something DANGEROUS; with g u n p o w d e r in my VEINS and DAGGERS in my g a z e
I’m a l i v i n gWEAPON — a t i c k i n gTIMEBOMB — and you can’t DISARM me. ❞
He is chaos in its rawest form. A feral heart beats thunder in the cage of his hollow chest; ebbing, flowing power. It lances from porcelain fingertips, consuming all; the cosmos in their entirety tremble in his presence. Kylo Ren, Master of The Knights of Ren, has brought about the annihilation of suns, the destruction of planets; he seeks to snuff out the remaining light that plagues the galaxy — HIS galaxy — and will tear asunder any who dare to oppose him. He serves under Supreme Leader Snoke’s command, albeit aside from him, bends to no one. He burns with all the vehement intensity of a collapsing star, and leaves naught but ashes and devastation in his wake.
Timeline ; Set 1 year after the Battle of Endor to 14-15 years later.
❝ all M O N S T E R S were once full of l i g h t , but it was stolen from them by D E S P A I R , then the darkness seeped into their v e i n s , like a deadly disease without a cure, and once hope B E T R A Y S you, you can’t help but let the D E V I L inside. ❞
He is a descendant of light, of peace and goodness in their plenitude. Skywalker blood runs strong through his veins, but there is a darkness settled deep in his bones, gnashing at the marrow with lupine teeth, curling around his resolve with ossified, sickly digits. Ben Solo has waged a war with his mind ever since he was born — the voice in his head cannot be silenced, constantly whispering coos threaded with shadow, with hate that has never felt so sweet. He is a focal point of both the Light and the Dark side; the forces of which have been tearing him apart from the very beginning. He can only hope that being taken as Luke Skywalker’s apprentice will chase the darkness from him once and for all; will finally free him of this pain.
Timeline ; Set 4-5 years after the destruction of Starkiller Base.
❝ he doesn’t forget the g h o s t s in his lungs or the S K E L E T O N S in his closet. he doesn’t forget when he wakes up S C R E A M I N G . and he never forgets as he F A L L S to his b l o o d y knees finished to the b o n e .
don’t ask him if he f o r g e t s because he NEVER forgets.
he’ll never forget this. ❞
He’s renounced the First Order, seen it crumble. He’s broken free from the hold the darkness had over him — or, Snoke anyway — yet the name Ben still tastes as foreign in his maw as it sounds in his ears, reverberating through his skull. That title isn’t for him anymore — he’s dead, I killed him — and nor is the surname Ren; he betrayed the only two families he had ever come to know. He is now simply Kylo, and he has secluded himself to a life of isolation, lost somewhere among the Outer Rim Territories. Redemption is not in the cards for him — he doesn’t deserve it — how could someone who murdered their own father? And so he survives alone, the only company he keeps is the voice of the Force.
Timeline ; Set in Los Angeles, California. Kylo is eighteen.
❝ they said all t e e n a g e r s scare the L I V I N G S H I T out of me. they could care less as long as someone’ll b l e e d. so D A R K E N your clothes , or strike a v i o l e n t pose. maybe they’ll leave you alone but not M E . ❞
It had been ‘just a phase’ for ten years now. Ben Organa-Solo, son of Princess Leia and her husband, Han Solo, has yet to conform to the duties and apparent mundanity of a royal Prince, a birthright bestowed upon him that he recanted with haste. Furthermore, he’s abandoned his birth name in favor of his stage name, Kylo Ren — did he mention he’s lead guitarist in the hottest new band to hit L.A.? They’re gonna rule the world someday, he just needs to graduate first — which is proving to be a challenge in itself. His parents insist that he quit his part-time job at Hot Topic and put his musical career on hold to focus on his studies. Yeah, like that’s gonna happen.
KYLO REN & GENERAL ARMITAGE HUX ( exclusive ship with starsundered )
❝ I’d always assumed that love was a dangerous disadvantage.
––you did not know gravity until you knew him. there is not a single star charted that draws you in as he does, nor one that burns with the same intensity. for he is your sun; you are mars caught in his pull, barren and lifeless. acid rain is the only reprieve from your vehement deserts, deserts that have left you with chapped lips and sandpaper fingertips, throat parched, cracking. but everyday, he rises above you, a forgiving tempest; without his light, you would not have a shadow. he was made to shine over your deserts; he is your oasis personified, and you will love him until his iron core burns out.
sentiment is a chemical defect found on the losing side. & for him, you would lose one thousand wars. ❞
