[He stops to grumpily look at Ren, knowing that the knight would just follow him everywhere if he just walked out of his room. He's annoyingly stubborn like that.]
I'm fine, shouldn't that be your main focus? I was in danger of getting killed by it.
[That's enough to turn his displeased stare into a scowl.]
I am glad for that, and I would be proud of you for finally managing to deal with danger on your own if that was all this was, but something tells me that's not the case.
[He looks at Ren with a scowl of his own, trying to hide his feelings about that whole event from him. But just the thought of Leia Organa saving him causes his room to become cold.]
[In lieu of a response, the knight simply lets out a slow breath, his stare never wavering from Hux's face. He's waiting for the other man to actually get to the heart of the matter; he can only stall for so long, and Kylo doesn't want to waste energy playing along.]
[If possible, Hux's mood sours and a slightly disgusted look appears on his face. Combined with a familiar loathing coming from the general, Ren can probably guess the person responsible for his rescue.]
Leia Organa.
[There. He said it, it's been acknowledged. Doesn't mean Hux likes it.]
[A similar look of disgust comes to Ren's face when Hux says the name, and he even shifts back a little, as if mentioning her alone is enough to drive him away.]
[His scowl deepens with every example Ren lists off. Just rub it in!! All of them were unfortunate accidents, nothing more.]
And how do you intend to train me? I highly doubt whatever you decide to do would help me. [The pride of his training as a FO officer is on the line here!]
The way I was trained, to hone your senses, your reflexes, your stamina.
[The Force was only a part of his training. It was intertwined with all of it, but the techniques can nonetheless be used for those without sensitivity.]
You realize now that you've questioned me there's no way out of this.

I would understand that if you were only irritated, but don't think I can't tell this was more than that. Something else happened.
[Not that he's pleased about Hux being in danger in the first place, but. Some things need to be addressed first.]

[Maybe he shouldn't have said that...]

[Ren folds his arms, directing a half-lidded stare at Hux. It should be obvious by now, surely.]
Something is bothering you.
no subject
[He's trying the delay tactic now, since the whole lying part failed miserably.]
Shall I give you a medal for your incredible insight?

no subject
...I was rescued. [Again.]
no subject
By whom.
no subject
Leia Organa.
[There. He said it, it's been acknowledged. Doesn't mean Hux likes it.]
no subject
Why were you even in the same place as her?
no subject
[He lips thin as he recounts the events leading to his rescue. He's going to avoid tasks for a while after this.]
I would've handled it, she just had to be the hero. [It's his weak attempt to assure Ren that it's nothing.]
no subject
[You fucked that one up yourself, Hux. Ren doesn't even need any special senses to catch that lie.]
You need to find out who else has signed up for these things before you go out and do them. ... or I'll just go along with you every time.
no subject
I know that. [He folds his arms and just gives Ren a look.] And I don't need you to follow me around like a bodyguard.
no subject
[THIS IS TREND, you can't deny it, Armitage.]
If nothing else I'm going to start training you so I know you can take care of yourself.
no subject
Not necessary. I can handle it, I've just had a couple of unfortunate accidents.
no subject
Do you want me to list out every incident.
no subject
No, but I'm fully trained. I am an officer, Kylo, I do not need your help.
no subject
[He could probably keep going, but he's probably made his point.]
So why not mine.

[The very nerve of Ren questioning him like this.]
I see no need in this.
no subject
[And that's that.]
Tomorrow starting at dawn. Don't try to get out of it.
no subject
I still think this is completely unnecessary.
