[He steps closer to Ren, wordlessly allowing him to grasp onto his arms. He's never the type to ask for contact, but it's still obvious that he wants his partner to be close with him with now. It doesn't help that Hux is feeling pathetically vulnerable too. Guess it's a side effect of Ren saying those words to him.]
You promised now, just like before. [Ren's true to his word, right? He hasn't abandoned Hux so far, although he just learned that he betrayed Snoke for one girl. But it's different with him, right? Because Ren actually cares about him...
[The fact that Armitage does move closer is enough for Kylo to feel a bit relieved, and some of the greyed living room returns to its former brightness. His right hand moves down to grasp Hux's left, fingers curling around where he knows the green ring to be.]
[Ren will certainly find the ring on Hux's hand, despite the glove covering it. He hasn't left the house without it, even while he was upset with him. As much as he hates being sentimental, the ring brings a certain comfort to Hux. It's a reminder of Ren's promise...]
...As long as you feel that way, I won't leave you either. [He admits quietly, but sincerely.]
[Kylo lets out a shaky breath as his shoulders relax slightly, the words reassuring him in a way he didn't know he needed to be. He supposes he was as worried as Hux was, in a way, even if the fear didn't arise consciously until just now.
He pulls Armitage into his arms, not wanting to get too emotional all over again. He can only handle so much.]

He doesn't think that has changed.]

Thank you.
