Poe blinked as the holographic image of Armitage Hux, First Order general, fanatic, murderer, evil, he was evil, but damn he was pretty, glitched and fizzled and blinked out.
Armitage never contacted him outside the carefully planned schedule that he himself had created and insisted upon, yet he’d appeared now, and he’d been lounging very provocatively across a low couch, and the things he’d been wearing—or barely wearing, really—
One thing Poe had learned early on about Armitage was that he was the type who liked games; there might actually be another guy, and there might not. Under the circumstances, Poe supposed it didn’t really matter.
And so, twenty minutes later, when Armitage sent the text-only message Are we still on?, Poe chewed his lip, ruffled a hand back through his hair, and typed back, Yeah, but next time you’re wearing that for me.
She took down the post last night but I’m going to try and send her a final message to drive the point home that her bullying is unacceptable and to make sure she won’t do it again. It’s high time bad people are called out and learn a lesson.
Just so I’m being totally transparent about this, here’s what I sent:
Is it perhaps a little too strong? Maybe. But she can’t get away with this.
I’m sorry for what I’m about to discuss (as I try to keep my blogs free of negativity and discourse) but I’m being harassed and slandered, and I want to make sure nobody else falls into the same trap.
@huxismyman has been saying that I’m rude and abusive. Please ask anyone besides them and you’ll get a different answer. Due to our friendship not being good for my mental health for a variety of reasons, I discussed with her many months ago that I didn’t want to keep being friends. (For her privacy, I won’t be discussing what reasons I have for breaking it off.)
There has been silence since then until I accidentally reblogged from her a few days ago, and she sends me a “hi” via DMs. So as not to be rude, I reply to check in on her general emotional health while still making it clear that we are no longer friends. She sends another “hi” the next day, which I decide to ignore because I know that I’m not very strongwilled and can easily be coaxed into a toxic friendship again (that’s experience speaking, sadly.) Another day passes. Then she starts the harassment.
All of these came in within the span of a few minutes while I was on my lunch break at work. I figured this couldn’t be anything good, so I blocked her. This was yesterday.
On to today:
She even sent me horrible messages to my instagram through one of hers, domhnallgleeson.ig.
I feel physically sick but mostly I’m afraid someone else will become her friend and have to go through the same trouble when they realize she is a toxic person. Please, don’t risk interacting with her. Just block and report.
But, don’t be left out! You can still donate and send a message to Oscar for his birthday until tonight (March 8, 8pm PST).
We will post again before the deadline to remind everyone. Until then, thank you for all your hard work and generosity. Oscar’s fans are truly something special!
TLJ novelization showed that Poe’s beloved X-wing canonically is an asshole, so beside conclusion that it prepared Poe to relationship with Hux on some level there are some interesting parallels with ginger general. Look: Poe’s X-wing and Hux are both arrogant, vainglorious and prickle assholes, both have black and orange color scheme, both effectively blows up things, both are loved by Poe.
Now imagine au where Hux is an asshole AI of Poe’s starfighter, so basically Poe flies a HuX-wing. *ba dum tss*
