Techie froze and felt ice run through his veins. Why is Kylo Ren, of all people, talking to him?! The blood is pulsing so hard in his ears that he doesn’t even know what the man is saying, and can only stare blankly at him.
“Um, ah,” he says, very intelligently.
And then bolts for the nearest exit.
“If the "bad guys” aren’t good to each other, who will be?“ Techie gives Ren a lopsided smile and added, "I’m not sure if I’m m-making sense, but I’m not proud of myself either, and maybe, j-just maybe, we can be good to each other when nobody else will.”
He puts his hand on Ren’s shoulder and gives a little friendly squeeze.
