avok looked over and drowned. "light, go." he said and the ghost zipped off. as soon as it found the male, is settled next to him. it started to 'sing softly'. "this little light of mine, i'm gonna let it shine.." it sang, before starting to go float and dance around hux in an attempt to make him feel better.

[peridot.]

It took a couple of minutes, but eventually Hux looked up and looked at the little ghost, his eyes red from crying and his body trembling. He was still shaking, but gradually it seemed to calm a bit, with his breath coming out in gasps. Eventually he seemed to calm down, and he moved onto his knees, reaching out for the small floating metal thing, "Where'd y-you come fr.. from?" Meanwhile, Kylo had gradually felt the anxiety and panic drain from him, and he sighed exhaustedly, slumping against the wall and saying softly, "I knew force-connecting with Hux was probably a bad idea.."

[dannychan]

ghost hummed softly. "i felt sadness, so i came to help." ghost couldn't tell the difference between most emotions- to him, if you cried, you were sad. "there's no reason to cry, so please don't. i'll keep singing if you want, but i know know the first part." he explained and bobbed around slowly. avok looked at kylo. "huh?"

[peridot.]

Kylo sighed and said, still seeming a bit exhausted from what he'd just experienced, "A few years ago, back when Hux was happy and we were actually friends, I cared about him so much that I wanted to take any pain that he had away. So I suggested to him that we form a force bond that would make me feel all of the emotions he felt. He could also feel my emotions, but not as strongly since he's not really a force-user. So every time he gets overwhelmed with anxiety or sadness, so do I. I try to take it away to help him, but... but it's so much that I can't handle all of it. I'm amazed he can." Hux, meanwhile, was still looking at ghost with a faint look of amazement. Swallowing the bile in his throat, the redhead slowly moved forward to cup his hands around ghost, moving to gently pull him closer and to his chest, saying softly, "Please keep singing. It's alright."

avon blinked and smiled. "you really love him, huh?" he said. ghost hummed as he was pulled in and continued his singing, bobbing in his grip as if he was dancing.

[peridot.]

Kylo blinked and turned red, nodding as he sighed, "Yeah. I really do. I only wish I could've told him that before his Father came and everything changed. Now he barely talks to me."
Hux let ghost continue to sing, holding him close to his chest almost like a pet. After a few minutes, he sank back against the pillows of his bed, seeming to relax.

[dannychan]

he blinked. "the only thing you can do is tell him." he started. ghost hummed happily

[peridot.]

He blinked and said, sighing a bit, "I love him so much, but... I don't think I can tell him right to his face.."
Hux said softly after a moment, looking ghost over, "You're a very cute little droid. Are there many of you?"

[dannychan]

he blinked. "as long as i'm fighting, but i need ghost."

[peridot.]

"Oh, well, we can get him ba-" Kylo was cut off when suddenly a rolling wave of almost violent anxiety and terror came over him. He put a hand to his head, making a pained sound and slouching over a bit, "Fuck. Oh, Hux.." Meanwhile, the source of this anxiety and terror was curled up in his room, sobbing and trembling as he had to be what was the third or fourth panic attack of the week. Hux was hugging his legs to his chest sobbing and gasping for air, his thoughts a disorganized mess, and it was all getting transferred to Kylo.
