"You took the Starkiller Base from me, it's only fair that I take something you value from you," Hux explains. "I think your sight is a fair exchange." Poe's eyes widen, and he shakes his head in a denial and murmurs a soft 'no.' Hux tilts the interrogation table back so it is parallel with the floor. He touches the collar around Poe's neck before giving Poe's shoulder what could almost be considered a comforting gesture in a different situation. "Don't struggle."
When Hux backs off a few steps a droid moves closer and places a cold, limb on either side of Poe's head to pull and hold his head back against the interrogation chair. Poe ignores Hux's caution to hold still and struggles against the restraints holding him still. His eyes dart over to Hux's face for a split second before he decides that Hux's face really is not what he wants to last see. The droids are not much of a better choice of last sights to see. The pain as the medical droid blinds him in one eye than the other is nothing compared to the knowledge that he will never see again.
The procedure is over quickly. Hux moves closer to Poe's head when the droids move away. He cups Poe's cheek while he inspects his rapidly blinking eyes. He ignores the small flinch at his touch. After a while Poe stops blinking so much, Hux decides that he rather likes the slight clouding in Poe's eyes. He tilts the bed upright again before unlocking the cuffs from around Poe's wrists and ankles.
The way to what Poe guesses will end at Hux's quarters is long and try as he may, he cannot keep track of how many turns they make. Not that it makes much difference, as without his sight Poe is not really going to be escaping on his own. He hates how Hux has tucked him tightly against his side, but he supposes that at least he is less likely to walk into a wall or something this way. Still, walking off a walkway does sound like a more pleasant fate than ending up wherever Hux is taking him.
