I dreamt this last night and keep thinking it would make a soul-destroying short fic. Hopefully someone agrees!
The First Order is about to fall. The heroes are winning. The base/ship/deathstar 3.0 is about to blow up.
Kylo is injured, but still fights his way through enemies trying to get to Hux so they can evacuate.
When he gets there, Hux is already dead/dying. Instead of escaping, Kylo lays down beside him and waits to die.
+ If Kylo had been offered a chance to escape with the heroes (last chance at redemption) and turned it down. ++ Touching/hand holding as they're dying.
Kylo/Hux - Last Stand (angst, dying together)
