☆  There was an ache, deep in his heart. An ache that was impossible to ignore. This was his grandson; it was all Anakin’s fault. He’d made a choice, to try to save the one person he loved more than anything, and it led him down a dark path. Now, his grandson was on the same path. It wasn’t easy to watch. Perhaps it was time to step in. He’d waited far too long already.  “Ben,” his voice was as stern as he could make it, eyes on his grandson, trying to ignore the pain in his heart. “You’ve made a mistake.”

Each amounting event only further left a bitter taste in Hux’s mouth. He was fairly certain he had finally gone numb as mounting anxiety grasped at his mind.  A moment of solitude was all he wanted, and he found it not in his quarters – those were too far away – and instead, found himself holed up in an empty conference room as the weight of everything seemed to come crashing down like a violent wave, and he soon became hyper aware he was no longer numb. Exhaustion and pain. A surfacing migraine. Body sore from the abuse he had taken. Humiliation making him cringe inwardly. A nervous breakdown was brewing, and it was all because everything had gone straight to hell and back. 

     His  eyes  seem  to  fill  with  hot  tears  that  sting  and  threaten  to  spill.  It  means  more  than  he  can  say  when  his  brother  shows  any  kind  of  affection.  Even  if  its  just  a  few  simple  words.  A  soft  chuckle  forces  it’s  way  past  his  lips  and  he  reaches  up  to  rub  the  back  of  his  neck.  “I  uh,  I’m  fine.  I  got  -  got  dumb  luck  on  -  on  my  side.  I  was  ---  I  was  more  worried  about  you.  Are  uh,  y  -  you  okay?”

He peaked underneath the hood he had up in his attempt to keep hidden—though his face was already temporarily deformed from the injection he pricked himself with to hide from the surveillance cameras—staring at the tall, black-haired man in question. As the detective moved Finn shadowed him, muttering to himself to keep calm as he closed the distance between them from behind. As per his plan, Finn ‘accidentally’ bumped into the man, trying to discreetly stuff the papers into the man’s pocket before picking up his pace to escape. ❝ Sorry, ❞ Finn apologized over his shoulder and hoped he wouldn’t be pursued.
