A flash of red caught his eye. There weren’t that many red-heads around after all. “Hux! We need to discuss–” his vocoder voice cut off mid sentence as he finally got a decent look at the man. It wasn’t the General, but… “How…? Who are you?” he demanded. -kylocanyounot

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.

Techie’s brows furrowed. “Why would you h-have to kill something so beautiful?” He squinted at Ren, confused. Without realizing it, he began running the pad of his calloused thumb over Ren’s knuckles as he thought.

Finally he asked, “Is th-this a Force thing?” A little embarrassed at his lack of knowledge, Techie smiled sheepishly up at him and bit his bottom lip. “S-sorry, but I’m out of my element.”

He met Ren’s intense gaze with his own hopeful one. “I’d like to know, th-though.”

“So your name is Bill?” Phasma asked with a smile. “Pleasure to meet you, my name is Lenina.”

“William, r-really, but Bill for short,” he said, a small smile dawning on his face, and then shook her hand. “Nice to m-meet you, Lenina.”

He took one look at his dirty work uniform and said, “Oh! Sorry, I th-think I’ve gotten you dirty.”

“Not m-me,” Techie smiles, beyond happy for them. “I just think it’s about t-time he settles down. The level of st-stress he’s under will k-kill him!”

“Hey Techie, how are you doing?” MP asks gently. She reaches for his hand with a smile.

“I’m so an-anesth-thetiz-ed that I just feel… A l-little hyper?” He grins at MP and moves his pupils around to show them off. “MP, my eyes are n-new! They hurt a little but they f-fit me well and are supposed to be more bio-friendly. Whatever th-that means!” He takes her by the hand and pulls her into a warm hug.

“What! That’s s-so great!” He gives MP a highfive. Noticing her endless praise for Hux, he says smugly, “If I didn’t know b-better, I’d think you have a crush on Hux!”

Techie crosses his arms and gives MP a toothy grin.

Techie takes Ren’s hand carefully in his own. “I c-can see your shine. It’s lighting up th-the whole Finalizer!” He laughs a little and adds, “You can’t see it, but *my* eyes can p-pick up the light coming f-from inside of you.”

Techie pokes Ren’s chest right over his heart. “From right there,” he says, confident.

It wasn’t safe on this planet anymore. Maybe NOTHING was safe. He needed to get back to Ren. Ren could help them! Hopefully…

They sped off to the closest transport ship; a good five miles off. The trip was a little uneventful, so Techie began to sing something soft and soothing for Addie.

“A-Al-Almost, sweetheart.” The fear is sinking into him again, but they’re so *close*. Finally, FINALLY, he pushes the door open and sunshine welcomes them both outside.

Quickly, he settles Addie and himself on his speeder and zooms off as far as he can get.

And then bolts for the nearest exit.

There’s a heavy pause in the conversation as Techie struggles to organize his thoughts.

Finally he settles on whispering, “I think y-you and I were made of the same star, Ren.” It’s a strange thing to say, but as soon as it’s out there, he’s sure of it.

They’d been orbiting around each other, always just out of sight, until their collision earlier today. And despite the insanity of it, Techie already feels closer to him than anyone ever before. Perhaps stars recognize particles of themselves in others.

He gently picked her up into his arms. Off to the distance there was a door with a sign he couldn’t quite make out, but it seemed like an exit so he stolled over to it.

“We might g-get out of here alive d-despite ourselves,” he mused to Adeline. At this age, did she even know what death *meant*?
