While General Hux delivered his speech, Lieutenant Aaron Doral thought of his people, but there were brothers and sisters in Hosnian Prime, so he tried to think in something else.
(Who knew if the phantom energy could interfere with the downloads - Aaron had done what he could, he had risked his cover with his alert message and they-)
The speech got more passionate; Aaron thought harder.
Under his feet was the First Order's super-weapon. So much money spend and so many broken treaties. Soulless, without a Hybrid to make it alive. Aaron thought that it would be lovely watch it burn. He focused on that; it was better that thinking in what he was going to witness.
This has happened before.

In the Finalizer, Petty Officer Rhea Valerii glanced at Kylo Ren from her workstation, and thought the Force.
(God had many names and Rhea had always wanted to know them all)
She looked at him looking at the Starkiller firing, the red line turning into strings, moving inexorably toward planets, toward people, closer and closer and she thought, I won't feel it, but you will, all of it.
The officers in the Starkiller Base were supposed to watch. The officers in the Finalizer were supposed to work. So Rhea lowered her head and worked.
Children all over the galaxy had grown up in stories of Aldebaran. But for the Cylon, tales of planetary destruction was everything they had about their past.
Hera's children ought to know better, she thought, ruefully, God will never forgive this sin.
