I think the one thing cool about Hux right now, other than his actor is cute, is that we still know very little about him. His screen time was like how many minutes?

So we could take whatever character we want from our own heads, and make him Hux. So Hux is as cool, dorky, a winner, a loser as the writers want.

Once he is more fleshed out, we might even see a drop in him getting written.
