Point of No Return (¼)

Snoke never existed.

Kylo Ren is the best pilot of the First Order.

Armitage Hux is a lowly mechanic, too insignificant to be killed. 

A story about two misplaced people who keep making the worst decisions, until they make a good one. 

Gef, can you please publish a list of your all time favourite fics?

| techiehux

gefionne:

Sure! In no particular order:

Doctor’s Orders by @jinxedambitions​
Hux is a busy doctor at a free clinic and Kylo is his repeat patient. Kylo has a lot of secrets that Hux doesn’t want to deal with, but they collide and are inextricably bound.

Sic Transit Gloria by @unicornsandbutane
The hottest and best public bathroom glory hole fic you will read. Kylo and Hux are coworkers at a shipping center and they meet in an unlikely place. 

Stars in Our Wake by @griesly​
Hux owns a bookstore and hires a bedraggled Kylo to work for him. There’s a great deal of tension. Dom/Sub dynamics and beautiful writing.

Resuscitate by sailaway
Canonverse where the First Order has an established code of dom/sub roles and playing out those roles is important in their day-to-day. Kylo Ren is a feisty sub who needs a strong hand. Hux there to step in.

Coup de Grâce by @that-vicious-vixen
The beautifully written one-night stand that turns into a living arrangement for underworld accountant Hux and enforcer Kylo. One I’ve loved since the first KBB.

Magic to Make the Sanest Man Go Mad by @vadianna
A gorgeous AU where Ben Solo meets Hux on Tatooine and might just be seduced by the First Order as well as the scruffy Hux.

Kylux ‘No-Smut’ Fic Rec

| techiehux

stardestroyervigilance:

As we all know, the Kylux fandom has no shortages of smut fics; we’re kind of notorious for it. But it’s not all kinks and fucking. Sometimes you just want a read a fic where there’s no sex and that’s what I’m here for! Below is a list of fics rated anywhere from General (Hux) Audiences to Mature Audiences and they all have one thing in common: they are completely smut scene free.


Canon-verse:

To Be Truly Seen by @theknitterati (G, 3.9k, Fluff, H/C, Self-Esteem Issues)

Kylo wears a helmet because he’s extremely anxious about his appearance and thinks he’s hideous. Hux finally figures this out and soothes him through a panic attack.

You’re Awful by zamwessell (G, 2.3k, Bickering)

“Why are you trying to inspire them with speeches?” Ren asks. “I thought they were programmed from birth to obey.”
“And why would I take any advice from you, Mr. I-Inexplicably-Have-A-Black-Bucket-Over-My-Head?”
“Careful.”
“I’m sorry, Darth I-Inexplicably-Have-A-Black-Bucket-Over-My-Head.”

General Hux and Kylo Ren hate working together.
For different reasons.

To Entertain An Idea by @it-wasnt-me-really (T, 6k, Drunk Kylo, Jealousy, Friends to Lovers)

The Supreme Leader and Grand Marshal come to an understanding, which turns into a realization, which turns into a drunk freakout, which turns into something else entirely.

Captivity by @kyluxtrashpit (T, 1.9k, H/C, Aftermath of Torture, Hair Washing)

Against all odds, Kylo is taken captive by the Resistance. When he’s finally rescued, he doesn’t expect such simple comforts to feel so good.

Inseparable by Kittens (T, 3k, Keep Him Close Tumblr Event, Crack)

Supreme Leader Kylo Ren doesn’t trust General Hux not to betray him, so he keeps him close. Really close.

Hold Me Back by @reyisaspacegay (T, 3.2k, H/C, Angst, Fluff, Past Child Abuse)

In which various things go wrong, and Hux learns just how affectionate Ren can be.

I Get By With A Little Help From My Subordinates by @obsessions-and-dreams (T, 1.8k, Crack, Fluff, Phasma Ships It)

Everyone on board the Finalizer can tell that the General doesn’t get enough sleep. They decide to take matters into their own hands. What could possibly go wrong?

sunburn by @honeypothux (T, 4.2k, Angst, H/C, Exes)

“You’ve been crying,” Kylo says. The again is unnecessary. They both know its true.

black bacta bandages and other first order love stories by @lady-starkiller (T, 3.7k, H/C, Pining, Kyux Breakup Drama) 

After the battle on Starkiller Base, after Kylo’s defeat at the hands of the Resistance, the First Order retrieved him from the imploding planet. And the First Order remained to see him heal.

I Follow Rivers by @bioticnerfherder and @agent-nemesis (M, 14.2k, Dealing With Injuries, Dismemberment) 

Kylo Ren returns to the Finalizer after completing his training to find General Hux missing in action. Determined to prove himself as a leader, he resolves to find the general no matter the cost. The Force, however, has other plans, and Kylo finds out more about the past than he does the future.

Alternate Universe:

Your Visible Soul by @obsessions-and-dreams (T, 6.1k, Modern AU, Enemies to Friends to Implied Lovers, Humour, Fluff, Cats)

Hux’s new neighbor was big, loud and messy.

And so was its owner, Kylo.

FN-1984 by @starhaxa (G, <1K, Addams Family AU, Crack, Outsider POV)

The stormtroopers know better than to say anything or even seem like they might not be minding their own business.

Comfort by @sparrowlicious (T, 2k, High School Au, H/C, Fluff) 

Hux seeks refuge at Kylo’s place only to find him in need of support. He gets a chance to repay Kylo for letting him hang out at his place every time he needs to.

Third Time’s The Charm by @theweddingofthefoxes (T, 2.6k, College AU, Praise Kink, Touch Starvation) 

Ben and Armie haven’t been dating for very long, but maybe things will get more interesting on their third date. Ben’s just hoping Armie won’t think his praise kink or desire to be touched are weird.

Grounding by @absolutecreed (G, 1.5k, Modern AU, Dissociation, Fluff) 

Hux wakes up to a phone call from Kylo, saying to come pick him up.

What makes that request odd is that it’s 4am. And its their day off. And nothing is open.

Hux gets worried.

fathers & sons by @claude-lit (M, 3k, Funerals, H/C, Mentions of Child Abuse)

Han dies. Hux picks up the pieces.

Homecoming by @warlike-god (M, 69k, Modern AU, Family Issues, Slow Burn)

AU in which Kylo has cut off all contact with his parents for the past seven years, but one phone call brings him right back to his dysfunctional family, and away from his hopeful art career. Now he has to deal with Han and Leia’s foster daughter Rey, Governor Organa herself, and Armitage Hux, his high school rival who seems to keep showing up at every turn. Worst of all, he has to reconcile with Han, and figure out how to say goodbye.

stet by @acroamatica (M, 17k, Novelist/Editor AU)

Kylo Ren knows how to write a bestseller. All he needs is a good enough monster and a small enough town, a cast of people who are relatable but maybe not very bright, and an editor who will sit back and let him do his thing.

First Order House’s newly-promoted senior editor Hux, however, is not that editor.

Take Me Home, Country Roads by @multi-purpose-tool-guy (G, 8k, Kylux-Adjacent Ship, Clyde Logan/Caleb Smith, Family Drama) 

After the events that occurred at Nathan’s home in the mountains, Caleb feels he needs to escape back to the sun-baked and beer-sticky West Virginia where he grew up. Some things have stayed the same but a lot has changed since he’s been gone, including Clyde Logan, but thankfully not in any of the ways that matter.

Alternately; in more ways than one, Caleb comes home.

One Song Glory by @bioticnerfherder (T, 33k, Rock Band AU)

Over two years after graduating from Juilliard, Ben decides he wants to reunite the Knights of Ren, a cover band they formed to make rent as college kids in New York City. But two years can be long time, and the band members have moved on – friendships are strained, romantic feelings forgotten. Or are they?

featuring: Ben on vocals and bass, Poe on lead guitar, Finn on rhythm guitar, Phasma on keyboards, Rey on drums, and Hux as their songwriter/kind-of manager.

A Rose by Any Other Name by @darcydent

Armitage Hux, CEO of the First Order, doesn’t have time to date. Which has led him to competing for love on the Bachelor. The only problem is the Bachelor is one Kylo Ren. Will Kylo and Hux’s past interfere with their future? Will they be able to put aside their old conflicts or will they be used as ratings fodder?

[I’ve never seen The Bachelor but this Kylux dating show fic is fantastic.]

jeusus:

“Let’s do it,” Kylo said, surging forward. Hux put his foot against his chest to stop him.

“We need to talk first,” he said firmly.

Kylo gaped. It was just fucking chest-to-foot contact and it already felt electric, skin on skin, absolution within reach. He was so turned on already he felt like he could come just from this, gulping down Hux’s scent and reveling in being near him. He had the sexiest legs Kylo had ever seen, and he’d die without them being wrapped around his hips soon. He needed that to happen. He needed, he needed—

Hardest of Hearts by @longstoryshortikilledhim

I really wanted to do one more piece in that verse @longstoryshortikilledhim and I collaborated on! 

Five times Hux tries to assassinate Ren, and one time Millicent tries
