[Despite the biting comment, there's an obvious anger in the general's eyes, even though he still stubbornly refuses to look at Kylo. It's not the same anger he holds for the Resistance or the Republic and as Kylo already observed, it's not just irritation.
He's angry, for someone else-- for someone he cares about and it's not exactly a feeling that Hux has often. It definitely didn't happen back home, but Hux has already accepted that he's far different now compared to how he behaved before arriving in Verens. It's disgusting to think that Kylo changed him that much, but... the thought of losing him is even worse.
Ugh.
Part of him just wants to say nothing, but at this stage, keeping anything from Kylo is pointless. Besides, a bigger part of him wants to talk to his partner. It usually ends up with Hux being less angry about something.]
Velvet and the rest of her group, they only suffered a month in prison for trying to kill an Arehtei. You, on the other hand, only killed Junko Enoshima, a known criminal, and was sentenced to slowly die in prison.
[Hux doesn't know what he really wants to say, which is unusual for someone like him. He's always had a sharp wit (at least in his mind!!) and he considered himself to be a good orator, but right now, he's stumbling. It doesn't help that the guilt from being involved with Junko's assassination has never really gone away either.
All in all, more emotions than Hux wants to deal with.]

Whenever I think about that, I get angry.
