🪐 where kylo calls hux and order him to fuck you while he watches (and he loves it)
warnings: smut & english is not my first language
The idea sounded exquisite to you. For some reason, it was Kylo Ren who brought it up. He was a man that could never share, unless he really wanted to. And god, he really wanted to this time.
"Your request caught me by surprise, Ren." Hux said, unbuttoning his uniform, standing right next to the bed where you were laying, already naked. "But I'm quite excited for it, I must say."
"Mhm." Kylo nodded, sitting in a chair next to the bed, watching you realize what was going to happen. "I'll be watching you." He said to you, almost in a whisper. "Every touch, every word, every look you give him. I'll be envious. Jealous." He swore. "Enjoying it."
"Any rules, Ren? Before we start?" Hux asked, taking off his belt.
"I won't give you any orders, General. I want you to use your best judgement. Use her."
"Use?" You asked, quite surprised to hear that word.
"Yes. To use." Kylo said, with a grin. "You're a toy tonight."
Hux laughed a little, and you notice how hard he was under his uniform trousers. He lean in, giving you a kiss. A passionate kiss. His tongue was in your mouth, dancing with yours. And Kylo watched, eyes locked on the two of you.
It felt weird to kiss another mouth, but it felt exquisite too.
"That's it, General..." Ren said, adjusting himself in the chair next to the bed. "Show me how much you desire her. I've seen you watching her in meetings. Show me, and do anything and everything you wish. But..." He said, and Hux stopped kissing you, breathing heavily, to look at him. "... Don't forget to bring her back to me in one piece. She is still mine, after all."
Those words made you feel a desperate warmth all over your body. Hux smiled and continued, kissing your neck and stroking your hair a little. He went further, biting your collarbone and even leaving some marks. You tought Kylo would get mad, but he didn't. You pictured your Master caressing himself over his trousers. Teasing himself, slowly.
"Good, General." Kylo said, breathing heavily, but still sounding demanding. "You really know how to worship a woman's body, don't you?" Hux nodded, but without talking; his mouth was wondering all over your breasts. "You have to be gentle with her. But firm. Very firm." As he speaks, he keeps touching himself over his uniform.
"Your woman is delicious, Ren." Hux said, going down on you and leaving traces of saliva everywhere.
"She's more than that, General. She's the finest piece of flesh you've ever touched." Kylo smiles, looking at your face. "Remember to be firm with her. Don't hold back. Use all of that strength, energy and desire I know you have. Let her feel it."
After that order, Hux knew he had to obey. He wanted to obey. While eating you, as if you were a plate of food to a hungry man, he spanked you. And you groaned in pleasure.
The more exciting part, was turning your head to Kylo and see him stroking his cock freely now. Still wearing his leather gloves, now covered in his own saliva. He smirked before talking to the General, without taking his eyes off you.
"She likes that, General." He said. "I think it's time for you to give her what she really wants. Don't hold back just because you're sharing her with me."
Hux lifted up his face, licking his lips and teeth like an animal. Without any warning, he grabbed you by your waist and moved you even nearer to him, caressing your entrance with the tip of his cock.
Kylo stood up and walked towards you, kneeling next to bed, with his head next to yours.
"Tell the General what you want, baby." He whispered in your ear, and you could listen the sound of his leather gloves wrapping and moving up and down around his cock.
You tried to speak, but the stimulation was too much.
"Use your words." Ren said, demanding.
"For god's sake, fu-fuck me, General..." You managed to speak, and some laughter came out from the throats of the two men around you.
"Lord, she feels fantastic..." Hux said, after finally sliding himself into you. "I envy you... Getting to f-fuck her every... single... day..." He said between harder thrusts.
"Give me a good show, General." Kylo ordered. "She likes what you're doing to her, so keep using her." You were unable to speak. "But... she can also do some convincing. She know exactly what to say to get you to do whatever she wants."
"Then tell me..." Hux begged, trying not to cum all over you already.
"Go fast... faster." You thought it was impossible to use your words, but you did. This lust was something you've never experienced.
"Come on, baby..." Kylo whispered in your ear, still stroking himself but this time even faster. "Say it louder to the General."
"Faster!" You said in a scream, knowing for sure that the Knights of Ren heard you from the other side of the door.
And Hux delivered without any problem. His orange hair was dripping wet and looking so messy, you never thought you would see the General like this. So desperate, without the good manners he usually has towards you.
"Isn't she a lovely sight, General? Don't hold back, you can be harder than that. I want you to be harder." Kylo demanded, as he grabbed you by your hair and forced you to look at him. "Look at me, baby..." He whispered between some groaning. "I'm fucking my hand wishing it was you... Watching how another takes you... In-Infront of me..." You opened your mouth and instead of a word, it was only a loud moan what came out. Hux hit a good spot in a rough way.
"She's a noisy one, General." Kylo said, looking at the redhead now, who was already smiling.
"I'm not sure... I'm not sure I can't hold it any longer, Lord..." Hux said, struggling to speak.
"You can't go yet, General." Kylo denied, and then whispered in your ear. "Turn around." He ordered you. "Let him cum by taking you in all fours. And you'll watch me." Ren was totally lost in pleasure, sounding so mean and desperate it could only make you feel even more aroused.
You didn't even have to move, they did it for you and you end up in all fours, with your head looking directly at the chair where Kylo sit again. His stomach was covered in cum, and that's how you knew that Kylo was having fun, and fucking himself for the second time now.
While Hux kept fucking you, you tried your best to keep your eyes opened.
The sight was beautiful; Kylo Ren, a man respected and feared all over the galaxy, playing with his own cock while his General was using you. Looking directly at your eyes. And while doing so, he spoke.
"Cum already, General." Ordered. "All over her. I don't care. She doesn't care either. But you, my love..." He now said to you. "You don't get to finish. You'll hold it in for me." The moment he said that, Hux couldn't help but cum inside you. The man was exhausted. "Because after the General leaves, I'm going to fuck you again, and again, and again... And I'll be the one to make you cum."
After saying those words, Kylo finished in his leather covered hands once again. And you were just there, breathing heavily in the bed, while Hux was dressing himself.
"It was a pleasure, Ren." The General said, right next to the door. Kylo approached him, taking his gloves off.
"You did good, General." Kylo said, stretching out his hand to shake Hux's. "I might call you soon, again." You heard him say, and you couldn't help but let go a mischievous smile. It was Kylo's turn now.

Incredible gift
Tumblr media
Pairing: Kylo Ren x reader
Warnings: None
Requested: @northmansvamp
Request:
Can I request a Kylo Ren x Reader, where the reader has telekinesis (very powerful) and Rey’s big sister. R protects him from all the people who are after him but over use them and pass out but release a energy blast but he catches the reader in his arms and places them his bed and waits till they wake up (you can add the rest)
***
You didn’t want to protect him at first, he was the enemy after all.
Was the enemy.
You weren’t so sure now, you were more like confused. When you were first captured by the First Order, you didn’t expect to start falling for the well known Kylo Ren. It really isn’t your fault, you can’t help the way you feel, and neither can he. It never really crossed your mind to question whether or not if he felt the same way, because it immediately occurred to you that he was just using you for your unique gift, a power you were born with that had nothing to do with the force.
It was a power you carried since birth. The gift you had nothing to do with the forge, but Kylo Ren thought otherwise at first. In the beginning, Kylo intentionally made it unbearable to be around him, even just within a few feet from each other. Although you weren’t one with the force, Kylo decided to train you as if you were anyway and he was never lenient on you in training. Kylo wouldn’t allow you to be dismissed from the session until he was satisfied with your progress. Kylo gave you a hard time at any open opportunity given, he never missed the chance to seize it. You were born with the power of telekinesis, and when Kylo Ren seemed to finally understand it, Kylo decided it would be wise to keep training to make sure you understand your power and that you can control it the right way.
Kylo knew there would be people after him once they discover that he has you. You’re made well known more than you realize, and Kylo had to figure out a way to keep you hidden as well as by his side at the same time. It seemed impossible, but when you started going on missions with him, he had given you a new identity to use if you’re ever questioned. You agreed to it both willingly and unwillingly, willingly because you didn’t understand just how many were after him until you witnessed it for the first time. Unwillingly because you didn’t want to and you knew it wasn’t right to lie about who you are, even to those who want to use you for their own advantages. But most of all, because by doing this, you’re betraying your little sister, Rey. This last mission you had both just got back from had gone wrong and unsuccessful after almost getting captured all over again. It seemed as though Kylo blamed you for this and you knew he did, and you almost weren’t going to be allowed to go on the next assignment.
Before you left for it, he gave the usual hard time talk and as much as you hated it, you obeyed and listened in. Sometimes he wouldn’t go easy when it came to criticizing you, calling you things you never thought possible about yourself, or for anyone for that matter.
“Weak, vulnerable, pathetic…” he would say, and you would silently stand your ground.
This mission, you decided you were going to prove him wrong, make him see and think otherwise.
That’s exactly what you did, but little did you know, it would be coming with a cost. You were always soft, especially in comparison to him, but you weren't pathetic. Or at least you hoped so. Before either of you departed from the ship once you landed, he wouldn’t let you leave without saying one more thing.
“Don't screw this up.” you nod, teeth clenched as agitation grew, following close behind.
———
It wasn't going well.
Having to against all these strangers was too much to ask of anyone. But you pressed on and fight with every strength you had within, until you no longer had the energy.
You were near Kylo, protecting him with the use of your powers and kept it up until it drained you off your feet. As you continued to stand there, continuing to use your powers until you reach a breaking point and begin to pass out due to a release of energy like never before. That’s not until Kylo notices, he could feel something wasn’t right and when he looked over, he looked in time to see that you’re passing out, running towards you as he reaches you in time to catch you in his arms before making the impact that would have left you horribly injured.
Although Kylo always made it difficult to be around him, he cared about you and didn’t want to see anything happen to you. Thoughts were going through his mind as he was carrying you back to the ship, had you slumped in the passengers seat before taking off. Making the way back to the First Order base to get you taken care of. Even though you had fell into unconsciousness, you still made your goal, to prove to Kylo otherwise.
After proving him wrong, you had earned his respect, which is more rewarding than you might think.
Very much more rewarding.

A/N: Thank you for your patience! I’ve been working on this request for a while and I actually have a burnt injury on my hand that’s still healing.
So updates will be slow, but they are coming!

“He’s not just any jedi”
“I worry that your feelings for your old master weaken you”
“He means nothing to me” —> direct parallels to Kylo Ren’s “She means nothing to me” quote about rey, his love interest and other half. Whether you like Reylo or not they were romantic live interests and Kylo was lying about her meaning nothing to him and we damn well know so is Vader/Anakin
They really served us an Obikin feast this time!
there was just SO MUCH. from my notes:
I have to face him, Master. Whether he dies or I do, this ends today. [they are so fucking entangled and doomed to meet and separate and reunite and they both know it, there's a sense of inescapable unfinished business between them, always on going, until it stops]
You don't have to do this, you know. / I have to go. / It's not about us, is it? You want to do it. It's about you and him. [obi-wan can't deny it]
He is not just any Jedi. I will face him alone. [just.. the level of fixation and history in it being so personal he cannot allow anyone else to intervene with this]
I will do what I must. / Then you will die! [that moment must just have played on loop for a decade in both of their memories, so of course vader knew his line in return]
Your strength has returned. [he sounds so pleased]
THEY GAVE US THE MASK CUT + HAYDEN + OBI-WAN HEARTBROKEN "Anakin"
I'm sorry, Anakin. For all of it. / I am not your failure, Obi-Wan. [obi-wan's face is just.. i mean both of them. ewan and hayden. fucking knocked it out of the park]
Then my friend is truly dead. Goodbye, Darth. [you guys KNOW how obsessed i am with names, and obi-wan using this new one, this acknowledgment of his identity and psychological separation of the two]
I wonder if your thoughts are clear on this, Lord Vader. Perhaps your feelings for your old master have left you weakened. [i love how DONE sheev is with anakin's bullshit]
Kenobi means nothing. [such a good parallel you bring up, love it]
You are also passionate, and fearless, forthright. And these are gifts from your father. [he's let go and so has the distance to appreciate the good, and remember anakin for who he was when he was still his friend and it's just beautiful and heartbreaking to see]
i am just rereading my notes blankly and being like ?!!??!?! did this really happen?!? unreal

Under The Mask - Kylo Ren / Ben Solo X Female Reader
Tumblr media
Title: Under The Mask
Kylo Ren / Ben Solo X Female Reader
Additional Characters: Rey, Poe (Mentioned), Finn (Mentioned), and Palpatine (Mentioned)
Requested
WC: 1,553
Warnings: Mention of death, insecure Reader, some fighting, slight angst, blasters mentioned, lightsabers mentioned, feeling sick mentioned, enemies to lovers, feels, and fluff
You and Kylo Ren have had a strange relationship, if you could even call it that. You had fought beside Rey and the others in the Resistance when he came with his lightsaber ignited. You were in the Resistance hideout when you felt something. It was an odd feeling, something that you couldn’t quite put your finger on, but it was as if someone else was trying to get your attention. It felt like a whisper, more like an echo from a far off room than anything else. You felt pulled towards something, subconsciously making your way to the control room, where Rey stood. 
"He's here." She spoke, her voice filled with emotion as she turned around, her eyes meeting yours.
"Kylo?" You asked, staring at the brunette before turning back to the control panel.
Rey furrowed her eyebrows, "Yes. Are you alright? You look ill." She placed a hand on your forehead, feeling the heat radiating out of you, "I think you're sick."
You sighed softly, "No, I'm fine, Rey." Rey looked unsure but nodded anyway. "We have to get rid of him."
A couple of weeks after that, it happened again. You were taking a small stroll on another Resistance planet, the trees loomed over you, the ground covered in moss. You had to get out of the base. Being stuck in there for days upon weeks made you feel antsy. You walked down the path, following it to a clearing until you stopped. A wave of nausea went through you and you found yourself leaning against a tree as you tried to keep yourself upright. The world around you grew dim, as your surroundings became blurry. You felt like you were sinking into the ground beneath you. Breath labored, you looked up, spotting a dark figure before you.
Kylo watched you as you steadied yourself, placing your hand on the tree behind you. Blinking rapidly, you gained back your strength, the feeling of nausea subsiding.
"Are you alright?" He asked, voice manipulated by his mask.
"Did you do that?" You asked, your own voice soft as you cleared it.
"No. But, I feel as if you won't believe me." He answered, taking a few steps forward.
"You saying that really doesn't help that matter,” You said,  crossing your arms. Your words came out a bit harsh, but you didn't care. You weren't going to let this guy mess with your head.
The masked man stopped, seeming to hesitate before stepping closer. Your eyes widened and you quickly backed away, your back hitting the tree.
"I'm not here to hurt you." He then said, but you shook your head, unable to look away from him. Especially the lightsaber that was clipped onto his belt.
"As if I'll believe you. Kind of low for you to try and attack me when I am without a weapon." You said, raising an eyebrow.
Kylo sighed, "I am not going to hurt you. You are not my target."
You frowned, "Yeah, Rey is. Now, why are you telling me all this anyway?"
"We are not so different you and I-"
"Oh, don't give me that," You interrupted him, "We are not the same."
Kylo looked at you for a moment, debating whether or not he should tell you what he knew. "You feel it? That strange feeling? It overtakes you from time to time?"
"Yes. How do you know about that?" You asked, glaring at the man in the mask.
"It's the Force bond between us," He paused before continuing, "It's strong. Strong enough to make you feel weak."
You scoffed, rolling your eyes, "Are you telling me that the feeling I get is because of some Force bond that I have with you?”
Kylo stared at you, his expression unreadable, "Yes. Don't deny it. The Force has already bonded us together."
Your jaw dropped, your eyes wide. Before you could say anything more, Kylo left.
For the next couple of weeks, every time you closed your eyes, there he was. His face appeared in your dreams almost every night. At first, you chalked it up to stress; but as more nights passed, the thought that maybe he wasn't always there made you wonder if he was actually real. So much so, that you started to consider contacting him. But, you had no way to. Half of you wanted to know the truth, while the other wanted to get rid of whatever spell had been cast on you.
It had been over a month until you saw him again, during another walk of yours. You felt that he was there before you really knew it. It was almost as if you heard him calling to you too. Like his voice was right on top of you and all you had to do was turn your head slightly. He stood there without his mask, surprising you. Your eyes raked over his once-hidden features and suddenly, you were drawn to him. Who knew he had a head of curls under there? Something told you not to run, not to pull your blaster, to follow him. Something in you told you that he wouldn't hurt you, that he was only looking out for you. 
"Why are you here?" You finally spoke up the fear that you'd wake up from this dream leaving you almost breathless.
"I wanted to see you," Kylo said, his eyes scanning your form.
"How did you find me?"
His lip curled slightly as he smirked, "There are many ways to find someone, especially if you spend enough time looking."
Your face flushed at his response, "Maybe I don't want to be found." You muttered, "Especially by you." You added, only for Kylo to take a few steps forward; stopping a few feet away from you.
"As I said, I wanted to see you," He replied, his gaze on you.
"So, you followed me." You said, your tone accusing.
"I have my reasons."
A small sigh escaped you, "You confuse me, Ren."
Kylo raised an eyebrow, "I confuse you?" He asked, making you laugh lightly, looking up at him with a small smile.
"Yeah, a lot."
It was a long time before you saw Kylo again. And a lot was happening. Rey had been gone for a long time, along with Finn and Poe. From what you understood, Palpatine was alive and Rey went to stop him. Meanwhile, you were stuck at the base doing nothing. You were bored and frustrated. It seemed as though everyone else was busy with their own problems. As you were packing up your things from the base, you heard heavy footsteps. The odd feeling came back, making you tense up a bit. Yet, a rush of excitement flew over you. You turned around to face the sound.
Your eyes widened at the sight of Kylo at your door, his hair was frazzled as was his breathing. He stared at you with wide eyes, before making his way to you.
"What are you doing here, Kylo?" You asked in a hushed whisper, not wanting anyone to find him.
"It's Ben. Ben Solo." He corrected you softly.
You nodded slowly, "Ben... Why are you here? Not that it's not good to see that you're okay..."
He looked hesitant as he continued to speak, "I wanted to see you before I went to Exegol."
"Wait, Exegol? Why are you going there?" You asked, your brows knitting together.
"I want to help Rey in defeating Palatine." He answered, making your eyes widen.
"What? Why?" You asked frantically, biting your lip.
"She needs my help."
"She'll be fine without you." You argued, "Besides, what if you don't come back? I've heard of Palatine's powers with the Force..." You questioned, stepping closer to Ben. "Is it Rey? I know you also have a bond with her." You then asked softly, fear and insecurity engulfing you.
Ben opened his mouth to respond, but then his lips pressed together into a tight line, taking time to think before responding, "Yes, we do have a bond, but it's not like ours, Y/N." Ben began, hesitantly reaching out and taking your hand in his. "Ours... It's like two parts that fit perfectly. It's stronger than the bond I share with Rey. More powerful even."
You smiled, trying not to blush at the sensation his skin gave, "I'm still scared, Ben." You whispered, your smile turning into a frown.
Ben reached out and placed a finger under your chin lifting your head up so that you were staring into his eyes, "We'll see each other again, I promise."
You nodded, taking Ben's hand in yours; placing it on your cheek. "Just please stay safe. If something happens to you, I can not bear to lose anyone else... Especially you." You said, your voice cracking.
Ben smiled softly, leaning down to kiss you gently. The kiss was gentle and tender, his fingers brushed against your cheek, sending tingles through your body. Once they pulled apart he lowered his forehead, his nose brushing against yours, his warm breath caressing your skin.
"Goodbye, Y/N." He whispered.
"Goodbye, Ben." You responded, closing your eyes.
You felt him pull away, opening them to find his figure disappearing down the hallway. Sighing, you bit your lip, hoping Ben would come back to you alive.

Ten characters. Ten fandoms.
Thanks for the tag @theradioactivespidergwen 🖤 I love this!
1. Aemond Targaryen
Tumblr media
I don't think any of us are surprised by this. Aemond is...the boy is everything to me. He's let himself become so warped and tortured by his trauma that recovery and self betterment were never an option. He's full of rage, he's cutting off pieces of himself to stay Mommy's good little boy, he's begging his father via his actions to notice him, notice him, notice him. The toxicity is off the charts and I would give my life for this scared child in a man's body.
2. Nesta Archeron
Tumblr media
Nesta is a stone cold bitch and I would die for her. This woman, barely not a girl, was ready to sell her body to ensure a better life was possible for her sisters, and the entire time she was denigrated by Feyre for "doing nothing" because what she did was woman's work. Who do you think did the cooking? The cleaning? The clothes mending? She helped end a war. She was violated. She had her autonomy stripped from her. She was not allowed to process her trauma in the way that came naturally to her because it was a mirror that Rhys couldn't handle looking in. Very few people deserve a happy ending as much as she does.
3. Kylo Ren
Tumblr media
Give me a character that is tortured by their actions and the legacy of their past and I will show you my favorite little baby in the whole world. He's so alone. He doesn't know his way in the world. He can't live up to his mother or uncle or father or grandfather and it's eaten away at something vital inside of him, leaving him rotting. The mental torture and abuse he's endured at the hands of Snoke have twisted him into something unrecognizable. And I love him, damn it.
4. Ophelia
Tumblr media
She is hope. She is madness. She is full of life and love and all of the things the people try to chip away at as we grow up. This rendition of Ophelia stands above the rest for me because she was finally given the opportunity to set aside her suffering and continue on, even if it's with the knowledge of what genuine pain feels like.
5. Zuko
Tumblr media
Are we really surprised by the addition of another angry young man searching through vindication and the reclamation of his honor by living up to the expectations of people who never truly cared about them? This list has a theme apparently. Zuko had one of the best and most rewarding character arcs of all time and his journey is one I literally watch over and over. Also Zutara forever.
6. Sansa Stark
Tumblr media
Sansa is all of the things that were conditioned not to like when it comes to a character. She's feminine and a little whiney and naive. She's fodder for torture. And yet she's also one of the strongest characters in this entire series, both book and show (boo hiss). Sansa Stark turns her fear into hope and her hope into strength and I will never not love her.
7. Fleabag
Tumblr media
I am her. She is me. Fleabag will never fail to rip my entire heart out and feed it back to me. She's awful. She's incredible. She's in pain. She's stumbling through life in the dark and using her suffering as a marker on the map.
8. Astarion
Tumblr media
The theme continues. Suffering? Check. Insurmountable pain? Check. Using his body as a way to ensure his safety? Check. Saved via the power of love and friendship? Check. Astarion's arc follows a typically feminine-coded route and I was obsessed from the get go with this cunty little man. I want to wrap him in a blanket burrito. I want to sink my teeth into him. I want to spray him with a hose.
9. Eddie Munson
Tumblr media
I'm not sure I've ever loved a character quite like I've loved Eddie Munson. The absolute heart of gold inside that poorly tattooed chest literally fuels me. He's insecure. He's an asshole. He's kind. He's angry. He's unsure of his place in the world. I will forever ignore the senseless tragedy of his death. It never happened. Nope. No. If I loved him less, I could talk about it more.
10. Dani Clayton
Tumblr media
Dani Clayton, the love of my life. Though she weeps and trembles and avoids at all costs, there is no one stronger than Dani. She's suffered since the beginning and never let it stop her, not until she had to save the woman she loved by giving her very life. Tortured, haunted, so full of grief that it had nowhere to go. I would literally die for her.

For all times (part 3)
Mobius x OFC
He follows her to the bedroom, noticing the size of the bed, which gives him an idea. "It's a big bed, maybe we should share it, if you're comfortable with. I mean, we're friends, right?” He says with a teasing tone. 
“Are you sure Mo?” 
"Yes, why not? I don't mind" He chuckles. "Besides, I don't want to hear you complaining all day that your backs hurts too.” He takes off his shoes and blazer and sits on her bed and turns to look at her. 
“Okay...I'm gonna get change” Aurora gets her pijamas and goes to the bathroom change her clothes. 
He nods and smiles. He lays down on the bed, resting his head on her pillow. While she's in the bathroom, he decides to mess with her a bit and takes her TemPad from the nightstand. 
A few minutes after, Aurora gets out of the bathroom with a large t-shirt that reaches her mid-thigh and see Mobius laying down with her TemPad in hands. 
 "What are you doing? Give it back!" Rory tries to get her device back. 
He teases her a little by lifting the TemPad whenever she tries to reach for it, avoiding her grasp as he does so.   
"Please give it back!" She says with a frustrated expression. He smiles at her and lifts the TemPad even higher "Come and get it then." He teases her in a playful manner. 
"That's not fair, you're taller than me" she tries again to reach, making her shirt ride up and expose more of her leg. “Come on Mobius, give it back.” 
He sees her attempt, but keeps teasing her as he lifts the TemPad higher "Nope, you have to earn it." He tells her with a grin. "I don't hear any begging." He teases her with a chuckle. "Come on, you can do it." 
“Nope” Rory tries to climb him, her legs wrapping around his waist so she could reach her device. 
He lets out an amused chuckle at her attempt to take back her TemPad. He lifts her in his arms and sits back in the bed as she wraps her legs around him, but keeps the device at arm's length. "Careful now or I might get the wrong idea here" He says playfully and teases her, lifting the TemPad a little further just to annoy her. 
Aurora blush a little with his comment, but snap back her TemPad from his hands and sits beside him “What did you wanted to see here?” 
He reaches for her wrist and gently takes the TemPad from her, still looking at her with a playful smile on his face "Nothing, I just wanted to tease you a bit."  He lays down the TemPad closer to her on the bed. "Now we can go to sleep. I'm getting tired." He says with a smile, looking at her face. 
“You know, you lie better than that.” she chuckles. “But yeah, it's late.” Aurora lays on her side of the bed, turning her back to him “Goodnight Mo”. 
"I swear I'm not lying, now let's get some sleep." He says with a calm but amused tone. He turns off the lights, leans against his pillow and closes his eyes as he lays on his side. He's quiet for a while before speaking again. In the darkness of the bedroom, his voice comes out almost like a whisper  
"Aurora?..." He hesitates but speaks her name again, with a little more strength. "Are you awake?" 
“No” she whispers back, with her eyes still close. 
He smiles softly "I knew it. You can't sleep either, huh?.." He chuckles and turns to look at her. 
Her back was still facing him. Aurora couldn’t sleep, she was still thinking how she practically had sit on him and the comment he made about him getting the wrong idea. Her mind couldn't stop racing thinking about it. 
"No, still thinking about Kylo Ren.” she teases him, lying about it. 
Mobius smiles as he hears her response. He can tell that she's just teasing him, and he plays along with it  "Oh come on, don't be so obsessed with him" He pretends to sound annoyed at her but can't help but smile. He turns toward her and looks at the back of her head, with a smile still on his face. "What's keeping you up?" He asks her. He puts his arms around her and pulls himself closer to her. 
Aurora feels his arm around her and the heat from his body and blushes in the dark “Well you know how I can't resist Kylo Ren. Tall, dark, bad.” her tone playful and soft because of the sleep. 
Mobius can hear her breathing getting lighter as she slowly falls asleep. He stares at the ceiling, deep in thought until he realizes that he's getting sleepy too. He closes his eyes and relaxes, breathing deeply as he starts to drift away to sleep.

I absolutely adore your writing, and the way you handle characters. It's like you have this uncanny ability to rummaging around inside of their heads, exposing their flaws, and making an absolute mess out of them, but it all is done so poetically. It's breathtakingly beautiful.
So, of course, when I saw Kylo Ren, I immediately said, "oh my god, YES!!!"
Of course I have to pick the dionysian 🤩 I would love to know more about it!!
my beloved lev, i'm always so flustered when you praise my writing because look who's talking! you will never not be a source of inspiration for me, mwah mwah mwah
Kylo is such a hard character to figure out because you can genuinely take him in so many different ways. I've adored fics that portray him as gentle but troubled, and similarly, ones that give him an inherent sadism. I think part of it stems from the lacking coherency in the sequels, but I've never minded it so much when it comes to fandom because authors are so good at making him their own.
So, as much as I love him (and have loved him, for years now), I've never tried my own hand at writing him because it's just such a daunting task. That is, until I watched this video essay on sith ideology. Things just became a whole lot clearer. I know he isn't technically a sith, but I do believe Kylo's more suited for the dark side and it's part of the reason why he was so easy to manipulate, so the same mechanisms can be applied to him in a way.
Essentially, 'The Dionysian' draws from the dichotomy presented in athenian tragedy, where the school of thought associated with the god of wine and pleasure represents disorder, intoxication, and emotion. When compared to the dark side of the force, this manifests as the 'strength of the individual' being placed above all else. It's a dog-eats-dog world, and Kylo – who I imagine had spent his formative years isolated and powerless at the Jedi temple – would take this to heart.
He cannot bring himself to acknowledge the macabre trail he leaves behind.  It’s bad practice. Unlike him. Usually, he meditates on the sight of gore spilling from slumped carcasses, suspended in the echoing vibrations of his extinguished lightsaber. It is the only moment of clarity he is ever afforded, that orbital resonance after a fight, as ideologies align to form some functioning mechanism of power. He’ll hear it whispering to him in the gravelly rasp of his master – there is no tragedy, only individual strength – and feel the dominance course through him until he shakes with it. His tremors now entail no such intensity. The ichor that seeps into the snow is his own, and his refusal to embrace the pain that rips up his leg is another inevitable tally in Snoke’s book against him.
The story follows his internal battle with this philosophy when he's rescued by a village girl. She hardly speaks basic and is generally clueless to the greater politics of the war waged by the first order, but knows that the man bleeding out in her backyard is the same one who led a battalion to pillage her planet. And still, she helps him; partly because she recognise how pathetic he is:
"You, like baby bird." She nods, cuffing her sleeves to avoid spreading the mess that spills out of him.
But also because she was raised on a culture of unity and aiding others, a doctrine similar to the one present in apollonian and jedi teachings. One that is very different to Kylo’s own.
I don't have the majority of it pinned down just yet, but it's all meant to be an exploration of finding harmony between the two! Very star wars haha

20 Questions for Fic Writers
@thegreatwicked thank you so much for the tag! ♥
1. How many works do you have on AO3? Seven, I have all of them here as well.
2. What's your total A03 word count? 114,650
3. What fandoms do you write for? Star Wars & Harry Potter (across all media). I guess Moon Knight counts, too, but I only have one so far. Honestly, I prefer writing for Star Wars (or anything else) here (smut), since all my Wattpad is Harry Potter-themed.
4. What are your top five fics by kudos?
You can read all of these from my masterlist here!
These are all smuts.
Fantasy | Kylo Ren
Bloody Skywalker | Anakin Skywalker
A sweet way to go | Anakin Skywalker
Insufferable | Armitage Hux
The Cockpit | Poe Dameron 
5. Do you respond to comments? Why or why not? Yes, but only when I have anything to add. But I absolutely love reading comments.
6. What's the fic you wrote with the angstiest ending? I hate angst, I don't like reading nor writing it, but ig Bloody Skywalker has kind of an angsty ending for some because - spoiler - Anakin still turns to the dark side. To me, it's a win, but I saw some people being sad about it 😅 I have a Harry Potter fic about an OC x Death Eater that ends pretty angsty though.
7. What's the fic you wrote with the happiest ending? Almost all of my fics have happy endings, like I said, I hate angst. But let's say my Cedric Diggory fanfic in which he does not die and then has 5 children, a cottage and a wife with a tea shop.
8. Do you get hate on fics? Not really, but now that I had my first book published - which started as a fic originally - I'm sure I will 🥴
9. Do you write smut? If so, what kind? Yes, that's why I'm here on Tumblr. I'm a good girl on Wattpad and a smut freak here. All kinds of smut. I kinda want to try writing a threesome since I never wrote it before and that will take some courage 😆
10. Do you write crossovers? What's the craziest one you've written? No, I'm not a big fan of them, but a Moon Knight crossover in which Marc's next personality is Poe Dameron sounds very tempting.
11. Have you ever had a fic stolen? Yep, multiple times on Wattpad.
12. Have you ever had a fic translated? By myself, yeah 😆
13. Have you ever co-written a fic before? No, and that would be a nightmare for me. I don't agree with myself, let alone someone else...
14. What's your all-time favourite ship? I usually hate canon x canon ships, because I always hate one of the characters, that's why I write x OC/x readers only.
15. What's the WIP you want to finish but doubt you ever will? Oh, for the love of Khonshu, the list is longer than the Nile.
16. What are your writing strengths? Based on thr compliments I usually get, I'd say it's describing emotions (which I hate doing) and sticking to the canon in fics (and not making OOCs).
17. What are your writing weaknesses? I forget about things I know I should apply - like show, don't tell rule - and I hate proofreading.
18. Thoughts on writing dialogue in another language for a fic? Depends. Sometimes it works if the reader isn't supposed to understand either, but you gotta make sure it's correct and not too much.
19. First fandom you wrote for? Monster High, when I was like what, 11, 12?
20. Favourite fic you've ever written? Insufferable for Hux aaaand Pact With The Devil for Tom Riddle.

Beautiful Silence (Kylo Ren x fem!character)
Summary- Kylo Ren wakes up from a nightmare, luckily, he's with his princess.
Warnings- slight mention of death
Word Count- 676
A/N- This isn't my first time writing but it is my first time showing it to someone other than my mom so it's likely not the best. I also uploaded this from my notes app so the format is very weird and gross. Anyway, this is just sleepy Kylo Ren fluff so enjoy!
(p.s. HAPPY PRIDE MONTH BITCHES!!)
Tumblr media
Kylo is running. He is running and stars, he's never ran this hard. He's in a forest on some planet he's visited only once. Why is he running? Kylo wants to stop, he knows he can't run forever but he can't stop. It's like his feet have a mind of their own, that mind is stupid.
Suddenly, and by no will of his own, he turns around a tree and starts running a different direction. He starts to hear something he didn't before, water? He's out of the trees now and the sun is beating down on him and damn, why is he still running?! He's not sure how long the running lasted, it felt like hours, but he stops now. There's someone in front of him? Not close enough to see his features but there's definitely someone there. He's turning around and no, no he's dead.
There's no way this is happening, Han Solo is dead. "I am dead, you know better than anyone, don't you?" Han Solo is speaking. How is he speaking? HE'S DEAD!
"Why? WHY CAN'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE?" Kylo cries back.
"I am you, Ben. You carry my memory with you, you once carried my name."
Kylo turns back and he runs, it's not his feet this time, he wants to run. It's his will now and he can tell. He's sweating, and his heartbeat is roaring in his ear when-
Kylo opens his eyes.
Quietness.
Beautiful, beautiful silence.
The only sound is the hum of the generator and her quiet, deep breaths. He's in bed with his princess, his queen who deserves way better than him, wrapped into her while laying in a bed that is far too small for him. Kylo's head is resting against her chest, his thumping heart is replaced by the faint beats coming from the other side of her tearstained shirt. He remembers last night..
It was well into the night when Kylo ran out of a meeting that wasn't going his way and found his feet taking him to her room. He had placed his helmet on a table and his shoes beside them when he couldn't hold it in any longer. He pressed his face into the neck of his sleeping beauty and wept. Kylo wept, and she let him. They were in the midst of an argument about Maker knows what yet she still grabbed onto him, turning around and wrapping her arms around his neck, pulling him into her as she whispered soft affirmations in that perfect voice of hers; "It's not your fault," "I'm not leaving you, Kylo."
Kylo hopes she knows how much he needs this. How much he needs her. He needs to wake up from one of his nightmares, with the sun barely out the window, entangled in her arms. He needs his angel to give him the affection he so craves but will never ask her for.
Kylo's grip on her waist tightens and he pulls her impossibly close, knowing they'll never get close enough to satisfy him. At this movement, his goddess's hand goes straight to his hair, unconsciously massaging his scalp.
He hopes she knows how much he loves her. He's not good at showing it and he understands that. He'll likely crawl out of her bed in a couple of hours, leaving her without his overwhelming body heat and in a cold, lonely bed. He hopes she doesn't think he has to do this because he doesn't want to lay with her until the last star burns out, or because he doesn't want to hold her so tightly in his arms until his muscles constrict. He can't do that, no matter how much he wants to, because he needs his strength, it's all he has. Maybe one day, he'll be able to wake her up with kisses on her lips, her nose, her eyelid. Maybe one day he'll be able to hold onto his princess until his muscles ache.
But for now, he'll close his puffy eyes, this time to dream of beautiful silence.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi Rewatch Part 4
Rey "If you see Finn before I do, tell him..."
Chewie Gurgles
Rey "Yeah, perfect. Tell him that."
To anyone who thinks this is a one-sided friendship.
It was honestly very brave of Rey to go alone to the First Order. She had a lot of faith in Ben/Kylo Ren cause she really didn't have a plan except to plead with him I guess.
Tumblr media
We might have gotten a hint of their sexual tension before but it's full pride and prejudice here. The novel goes a little bit more in depth and it's canon from Rian/Adam that Ren wanted to kiss her her.
General Holdo is a great leader but is there a reason she couldn't just communicate her plan to get Poe off her back, it seems like it could've saved some trouble. 3PO running off to not be party to a munity hahahahaha
Tumblr media
Leia coming back in time to dip out and knock out Poe. It's a great scene between Holdo and Leia about strength and leadership.
Tumblr media
The throne room scene is brilliant just all around. The acting, the direction, the production, the look of it all. Snoke didn't bridge their minds though not sure where that came from, writing wise. Rey be patient with our boy, Ren, you didn't have a plan and he's having to come up with one on the spot. Adam driver played Ren's neutrality perfectly.
Tumblr media
Rey in plucky but she Lord she did not think this through. Ren, not one for patience or controlling his temper, actually locked it up this scene to save them both. I didn't see this in theaters so I'm curious what the reaction to him killing Snoke was. Bet it was wild. Then the moment when they lock eyes like "you with me?" and here is this iconic moment. Power lightsaber couple.
Tumblr media
I keep forgetting that Finn used to be in The First Order. General Hux, Phasma and company have known him for a long time. Hence the bitch slap Hux gives Finn haha.
I'm so annoyed that once explained to Poe, he agrees it's a good plan and stops trying to interfere.
We also see Ren at his full fighting level. Novice Rey wouldn't have beaten him. He's beating several trained individuals at once. He's finally freed in a way he's longed to be by choosing Rey.
The cinematography during this film doesn't get enough credit. Like at all. You can see that this film is a labor of love.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
That moment when Rey thinks he's Ben only for Kylo Ren to be like hey girl, still here. It's a great scene, can't say that enough. It does go to further illustrate that there isn't any place these two can hide from one another. It's what makes them seen though and fully connected in a way they've never been to another person. Yeah, they ain't letting this go.
The fighting over the lightsaber. Beautiful visual.
General Holdo after watching some boat blow up, moves to action and goes out like a G. Seriously she needed to do something or she was the only about to survive. The sound production, once again, is just amazing.
Tumblr media
Finn and Phasma fight is nice and it's wonderful watching him more and more confront his problems instead of running away from them. Rose and Finn could've at least had soot covered clothing. I mean something. They look pristine here. Overlay aside this is a beautiful shot of Leia.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I just love the shot with the planes. The trail of red like blood over the white salt. In the resistance typical shitty ass equipment. At least it makes sense here why they have poor equipment.
I do love that Kylo makes a competent leader if not an emotional one. I wonder if he had a moment to enjoy finally becoming boss. It's what even his grandfather never managed to do. It's obvious that he takes no pleasure in it. He wanted Rey there with him.
hahah General Hux and Ren are just chef's kiss.
Tumblr media
Rose crashing into Finn was stupid. Finn dying a heroic death would've been better or at least no pointless. The kiss was undeserved. Finn looked grossed out and confused. Or Rose could've died the heroic death, I don't know, but this is trash. However, people need help if they personally attack actors cause they don't like their characters.
Luke Skywalker finally shows up. I will say this moment of finally stepping up feels so deserved cause we watched him bullshit for the entire movie. It also brings it around that ultimately Luke is a symbol at this point. His job wasn't about beating the First Order or even Kylo Ren, it was about having something (someone) to believe in. Leia and Luke had such a touching scene where you can see the love between them as characters and actors.
Tumblr media
Kylo Ren testosterone kicks in and he's gotta fight Kylo Ren Mano e Mano. It's a great character beat. Luke wouldn't, nor could he, kill his nephew no more than he could kill his father. He did a very unorthodox heroic thing very in league with his legacy, he bought them time to escape without being violent towards his kin. The moment Kylo Ren realized he's fake though ha! what a moment.
Finally Rey and Finn reunite. There's more chemistry, relief and connection in this wordless hug than in every single one of FinnRose's scenes.
Tumblr media
Finally, the death of Luke Skywalker. It's peaceful, purposeful, heroic and full circle which is more than Han got. Staring at those two suns we're called back to his days on tattooine.
Tumblr media
The last forcetime between is filled with so much emotion, again without a word spoken. Allowing actors to emote and not always just speak is the sign of a great writer and director. Ren looks at Rey with such confusion and longing. Rey looks at Ren with such disappointment and tough love. Also, I didn't realize Poe and Rey hadn't met yet. It's like automatic frenemies.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
On the other side of the galaxy children share the story of Luke Skywalker standing up to oppression, violence and so forth.... and we conclude.
Overall, I LOVE THIS FILM. I don't give a damn about the hate I receive for loving Reylo. It's a beautiful, well written film with great character development. Do I like the handling of Luke Skywalker? No. The titty milk scene was gross and demeaning. Everything else I enjoy whole heartedly.
Now onto Rise of Skywalker? God give me strength. I remember it was a mixed bag, mostly confusing hot mess with a terrible ending.

I don't usually go for angsty endings tbh! I like a lot of angst in the middle, or i go for kind of bittersweet endings.

probably that star wars one; force awakens had just come out and i was one of many kylo ren woobifiers who wanted him to have accepted han's invite to come home.

I don't think so? not that I can remember. I've had one or two podficced though iirc.

google translate always does me dirty so now i usually just write the dialogue in english and use a dialogue tag like "she said in *insert language*"
19. First fandom you wrote for?
iiiiii think it was Rise of the Guardians! before that i mostly did over-dramatic RP on the cricket magazine forums where i had characters like a half-dragon bounty hunter.
20. Favorite fic you’ve ever written?
probably the ishvalan elrics fic! fma is already full of a lot of meaty concepts, and it was fun re-conceptualizing the canon plot and character beats while keeping the arching plot intact. stuff like that is like a puzzle to me, it's very satisfying when i finish one and it gets positive feedback!
tagging anyone who wants to do it, because im. so sleepy rn

DREGS OF MY HEART , A snippet
A snippet of a fanfiction I’m finally putting time into ! I actually really like this concept but I had to start from scratch since all of my notes are lost with my broken phone, so. Yk it sucks.
Poe Dameron x Villain OC x Kylo Ren
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
The crackling of Ciara's blood red lightsaber appeared devastatingly close to her throat at the moment. It's smoldering blade radiated a palpable aura of heat, and that heat slowly but surely trickled up her neck and leached onto her chin and face.
Yet there was nothing like a little danger to remind you that you were alive, and that the preservation of your life was most paramount. Ciara had learned to take life that way ever since she could remember.
Kylo Ren's saber pressed tautly and rigorously against hers, their vigors staggering as they fought, neither willing to relent. Ciara's chest rose and fell sharply, and Kylo took more than heed of that.
"You cannot beat me in a strength fight, Ciara. Surrender."
Her eyes steeled. Fuck no.
She wouldn't let him beat her this easily. The brawl had only just started.
Thus ever so slightly, she widened the grip of one of her hands which clasped around her saber, a slick sneer barely appearing on her lips. She knew strength alone couldn't beat her mentor, so she decided to circumvent the predicament by playing with a bit of the force.
In a prompt move, Ciara just scarcely pushed Kylo back, the action taking him pleasantly by surprise. With the sneer now mounted expansively on Ciara's lips, they began exchanging hits back and forth once again, the junction finally past.
Ciara's lightsaber form utilized purposefully diverting, swinging movements and swift, calculated hits. Kylo Ren's involved heavy hits and a proclivity of offensive moves. While Kylo sought to beat Ciara with brutality, she sought to beat him through slick hits until she exploited a vice in his handiwork.
It was true that Ciara hadn't beaten Kylo in ages. She believed this time would be different.
"Ciara," she'd gone on the offense gradually, and had begun an explosive onslaught. The constant contiguity of the two lightsabers as Ciara's lashed onto Kylo's hit after hit created a discordance of sounds that seemed almost deafening. Nonetheless, Kylo Ren parried each of Ciara's hits with ease. "I, really, could do this all day." His profound voice spoke between defenses.
With an aggravated shriek, she swiped at the floor, towards his feet, and imperceptibly quick, Kylo had his saber to her throat. Defenseless.
"Damn you, Kylo!"
Kylo responded with a grumbling chuckle, and Ciara turned off her lightsaber before throwing it against the monochrome wall. Her utter frustration pricked every inch of her skin.
"You know, you don't have to beat me. You were close that time, and that's truly enough."
"Oh, spare me your lenience. You parried my moves without using much of your impenetrable strength." Ciara retrieved her saber from the corner of the room faster than she could blink. It appeared wedged in her fingers, and shook in sync with her intermittent tremors as she struggled to keep her anger beneath the surface.
"It may look that way, but your style of fighting is very difficult to find ways around." Ciara's eyes were set stubbornly on the floor. Kylo watched her from afar in silence. "Come on, you should take a bath tonight and utilize some rest. We've got plans tomorrow."
"You just don't get it." Kylo's bemusement bled into his eyes as they narrowed in on his apprentice. "Snoke will never see me like he sees you. He threatens to throw me out half of the time, the rest he spends belittling my accomplishments. He thinks I'm some, incapable girl." Ciara ranted on. Her tremors rose violently.
"Snoke doesn't treat you any better than he treats me." His voice was low and pensive, slightly more than usual.
"How dare you say that." The tension was thick enough to sniff out. "You might think that, but to him you have value. I can easily be thrown out of the order, just like the rest of the generals and the stormtroopers. You're the gleaming, new Darth Vader."
"Well, me and Snoke have starkly different views." Ciara finally found the volition to turn her head towards her mentor. "You matter more than the order ever could to me. More than the Darth Vader title."
Kylo Ren's boots stomped on the floor, and Ciara found those last few words echoing far in her head. He held out a glove-enveloped hand.
"It's just the two of us. Emperor Snoke may have power over us, but we still have each other."
After a moment's silence, Ciara took his hand in hers.

Hi,
I just watched the last episode! It was amazing!
Firstly: Qui-Gon!!! I knew he'd show up eventually. *sniff* He was always there.
And the fight between Obi Wan and Darth was great. It gave me chills to see Anankin's eye looking out (was that Anankin's actor?) and hearing his voice mixed with Darth's was just chilling and touching.
And Obi Wan got his full strength back and was doing some awesome Earth Bending (I don't know if you've ever watched Avatar but it's also really great show, fully recommend it. I think you'd like Zuko, the Kylo Ren of the show)
Reva almost made me cry. I didn't have too much sympathy for her seeing her chasing Luke, but hearing her weeping saying, "I failed them, I failed them" it just hit home that every terrible thing she's done was to bring justice to the murdered children.
I really hope that her character returns and is allowed to keep growing.
I really loved this show. It's refreshing to have a fairly simple storyline with great characters.
Well, once again meant to answer this already, but I forgot lol.
Yasss Qui-Gon! I think everyone was glad we at least got to see him, even if it was awfully brief. The fight scene and the voice combo they did… chefs kiss brilliant! 👌 I was literally thinking during that fight that something like that would be great, so I was thrilled they had the same thought lol.
Yes, I actually have seen Avatar! My family and I watched the whole thing a couple years ago and we really enjoyed it. LOVED Zuko and he absolutely is the Kylo of that series.
I agree about Reva, I think Moses Ingram did a great job playing her and building the slight conflict until we finally got the really moving redemption. It would definitely be nice to see more of her character! Though, I’m of the opinion that the show was great as it was, and I’m actually hoping they leave it as a one time series instead of doing another season. I feel like the story was told and it added quite a lot, but more isn’t always more, y’know? Idk that’s just me! I know a lot of fans would love more of it.
Glad you enjoyed the whole thing and I hope it only adds to your enjoyment of the next parts of the Star Wars saga that you have ahead of you! 😁

The knights of ren in the comics are closer to a mercenary group that has a creed than anything near to the sith. They’re interested in hedonism and the masks are to be intimidating and nothing more. Vader worship was specifically Kylo’s thing, there’s a whole comic about the original knights stealing from Vader and fighting him. They’re very simple and shallow, yes, but they’re more an anarchist biker gang than a cult or a far right org
I don't know man, I think trying to get a kid to join their ranks by having them kill their brother and embrace a might makes right philosophy doesn't sound very Anarchist.
Like it's comical you think this gang that's hedonistic, and attempting to intimidate people is anything close to anarchism, that's not anarchism, and the Sith or dark side in general just totally not Anarchist it is Mystic fascism quite literally.
Also your argument Falls flat, because they aligned themselves with the same organization that was headed by Darth maul, who did not abandon his beliefs in the dark side, just his beliefs in the Sith order, the dark side being not a liberating Force but an oppressive boot on the Galaxy. They are not anarchistic, calling them Anarchist is not only a fundamental misunderstanding of anarchism, it fundamentally misunderstands what the dark side is.
They are a dark side organization, a brand new one that sucks ass and doesn't know what it's getting into, as opposed to the age old Cosmic horror that is the Sith, but they're still dark side Force users. As such they believe and abide by a might makes right philosophy, vaguely tied to fascistic tendencies, because that is what the dark side is and that is what the dark side does, it is a greedy, destructive, dominating Force that seeks to subjugate the galaxy. Every dark side organization, every single one, even the ones that are in some capacities redeemable or sympathetic like the night sisters and night Brothers utilize this philosophy to live.
They are not an anarchist biker gang, they are the proud boys, including all the weird initiations and a fetishism for power and nothing more.
If you look at the Knights of Ren and see an anarchist I fundamentally question your understanding of politics and politics of star wars, the light side is more aligned with anarchism, socialism, communism, and the democratization of life and the liberation of the oppressed. The Knights of Ren want to abide by the most powerful, they want to hurt people, and they want people to come into their ranks with that goal.
That Hedonism they're looking for? That pursuit of pleasure of some kind that endeavor to prove themselves? That's a Lust For power, it's very much Illustrated to be a lust for power. And this is very much heavily conveyed by the fact that when kylo Ren defeats their leader, Ren, they follow kylo. It's also reinforced by the fact that an episode 9, when kylo Ren abandons the name kylo Ren and just becomes Ben solo, they fight to stop him from defeating or helping Rey in defeating Sidious.
They are bad people who do bad things for bad reasons, that is the entirety of the dark side and the entire summation of what it believes, if you follow the dark side, generally speaking you're abiding by the tenets of the Sith because they are the highest order of the dark side, and thus the most powerful within it.
Those tenets are:
"Peace is a lie. There is only Passion.
Through Passion, I gain Strength.
Through Strength, I gain Power.
Through Power, I gain Victory.
Through Victory my chains are Broken.
The Force shall free me."
The proper way to understand this, if you really want to, is to add the prefix my before every single affirmation. Like so:
"My peace is a lie. There is only my passion.
Through my passion, I gain my strength.
Through my strength, I gain my power.
Through my power, I gain my victory.
Through my victory my chains are Broken.
The Force shall free me."
If you read that like every other fan of Legends who also thinks it's a good idea that Karen Travis made the word in Mandalorian for female the same as the word for sheath as in "sword and sheath," that sounds pretty pragmatic and like a good list of things to believe in some sort of self-help fashion.
But the very first affirmation informs us why this is not a reality, why this is not what they're actually doing. The dark side cannot let go, a dark side practitioner cannot let go of the things that frustrate them, they use it to hurt other people, in an expressly abusive manner. They have no inner peace, they have no interstability, they only have a deep passion, or a deep-seated pain. And instead of healing from that pain, they weaponize it, through that pain they hurt others, they gain their strength over others, and by dominating and using their strength over others, they accrue power, by accruing power they gain more power and thus gain victory and are able to bend the world to their liking, and thus since they're able to dominate the world through the express outward harm caused by weaponizing their pain against others, in an unhealthy fashion, with unearthly powers, they break the things they believe limited them and disallowed them from being able to do the stuff they wanted to do, they finally have broken their morality and any sort of moral compass, and seek only to dominate other people.
The reason why the Knights of ren, the night sisters, and the fanatical Dark Side users never really overthrow Darth Sidious is because he was the embodiment of the very thing they were all trying to accomplish, they couldn't do it because they couldn't go as far as he did, from literal birth to literal death he was constantly looking at people as pawns, he lived the very life of the Sith code. It was a code of no peace, of deep calculation, of taking every slight that was put against him, and bringing it back tenfold against the people who hurt him.
Darkside practitioners of any variety are not good, that is the clear and defined morality of star wars, and the effect of the dark side has on other people hurts them, it's not helpful. If you are a dark side practitioner you start rotting from the inside out, we see this with sidious, we see this with every single practitioner who does not turn away until later, their body rots, there's cars get worse and do not heal, they fester, they putrify, they know no peace, even in the pursuit of pleasure, the Knights of Ren were deeply scarred and hurt. They are bad people who do bad things, you do not care for other people and they are not seeking to overthrow the system, they are seeking to look for the best thrill to be able to gain more power.
On the inverse by abiding By the Light Side of the force, you are most likely abiding by the Jedi code, which a lot of people also seem to misunderstand because Legends made sure to make people think the Jedi were evil and the Sith were good because of course we're going to try and contradict the fucking six movies laid out pretty plainly the Sith were bad and the Jedi were good, the Jedi just fucked up in what they were supposed to do, which is fine, fucking up happens, forgiving yourself and choosing not to let that hurt yourself and others is what is the bad part. Light side of the force is as follows, and has a different word to clarify, "yet."
"There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force."
If you read that as some individualist fuck nugget who decides that emotions are wholesale good and there's no new ones, the Jedi seem like unemotionless pricks. However when you add the clarifying word "yet."
"Emotion, yet peace.
Ignorance, yet knowledge.
Passion, yet serenity.
Chaos, yet harmony.
Death, yet the Force."
In the Sith emotions are treated as wholesale perfect, even when they're not and even when they hurt people. In the Jedi Order emotions are a part of us, and should not be weaponized but must be understood. It is through the understanding of our emotions, and understanding of how to handle them and be healthy, that we find peace. It is though we may stumble and be ignorant, our pursuit of knowledge and clarity through our understanding of inner peace, that we are able to consider ourselves knowledgeable and capable of learning. Through that we gain a deep-seated passion, a passion for what drives us, a passion to pursue good, a passion and compassion towards others, which reinforces and allows us to find serenity. And though it may seem chaotic, though it may seem wild and unkempt, though this wonderful and beautiful collection of a passionate many people coming together, this chaos is harmonious, it works towards a common goal, it is a flourishing jungle by which the greater Galaxy can benefit.
And in this, death is meaningless, for no amount of death can subjugate the living, it is through this passionate hope and desire to help others that we conquered death, we conquer our pain, we learn that letting go of the things that hurt us can help us appreciate the things we have and enable us to live and love the time we spent with the things we lost. There Is No Death when life is everywhere, when we are able to move on, to find a good community, to find and have support. The cycle of the force, this is the cycle of life, this is the cycle that we all must abide by, because the counter it, to subjugate it, to seek to chain it for your own ends, to dominate others and turn them into your pawns for your game, that is not passion, that is not victory, that is only pain and turmoil, and there is no serenity there.
The Knights of Ren are power hungry biker gang in the same vein as the proud boys are, they have bizarre initiations, a desire for power, and oftentimes they target very vulnerable people who they think they can subjugate, and when this backfires tremendously it ends up creating a much more worse organization and emboldening a much more worse person to do much more worse things, and they do nothing to stop it or to counter it or to fight against it.
They simply accept the new leader, follow right behind them, and question nothing.
"The nature of the Ren, according to Ren, was that it just existed. It had no conscience, neither acknowledging or expressing concepts such as morality, regret or concern for what it might destroy. Ren believed in this principle on a deep, personal level to the point where he did not consider himself the Knights' leader. All of the Knights, including Ren himself, followed the lightsaber and what it represented in their view."
In the Star Wars Universe having an absence of morality is still morality, this is why in episode 8, the last jedi, DJ is the bad guy who turns Rose and Finn over to the first order, because he doesn't abide by any morality, just the highest bidder. He may seem reasonable and come from a reasonable point of argumentation, but at the end of the day he's just looking for the highest payment, not liberation. His liberation is at the expense of other people's.
That is also why the Knights of Ren are bad people, because they're looking for a good death, their absence of morality is driven entirely by a lightsaber the path of brutality, outright and abject destruction simply because they wanted to destroy. The morality of the Star Wars universe is rather simple, clear-cut, and obvious:
The light side is good, the dark side is bad, and sitting and doing nothing in the face of evil, very obvious and direct evil, even when it's just a tiny biker gang with stupid looking helmets that aren't scary in the slightest, emboldens it to grow further and stronger and hurt more people.
It's why the Bendu was obligated to act, why DJ was a bad person, and why the Knights of Ren aren't anarchistic, but are more aligned with the proud boys in terms of their interpretation of fascist machismo. They are, to put it quite simply, a bunch of cowards Guided by a blatant disregard for life and other people's desire to live, instead only motivated by a deep-seated desire to hurt others. They want to hurt others. That's all they want. There's no dismantling, there's no questioning power, there is only the power they hold over others and using it to hurt them.
The Knights of Ren are not anarchist, the Knights of Ren are Fascist machismo in the Star Wars universe, the Star Wars equivalent to the proud boys, and they predictably fell in line behind Sidious the moment he came back into power and their beloved leader had a change of heart. Just like the proud boys.
