gentleman-caller:

Hux is very careful when and where he lets go of the fearsome persona he’s built up to command his crew.  Which is why Kylo is especially happy to have Hux all to himself on a short vacation.  No one to stop them sharing a hammock in the cool evening on a private beach.  Nothing to interfere with unguarded kisses and lazy caresses.  No need for Hux to hold back a delighted laugh when Kylo teases him with a private joke.  No reason not to turn his face against his lover’s for a playful nuzzle as they drift to sleep.  No reason at all.
