"Who cares what Hux thinks. It's your space, it should be how you want it." The remark came easily, but then, deriding Hux came pretty damn easily. It had before the two of them started conversing across their connection, and now even more so. Poe couldn't say he was looking forward to seeing Hux face to face, but he'd deal with it when the time came.

After he was finished with the initial glance around his gaze sought the other man out and he nodded slightly at the mention of what Kylo needed to do. "Of course, I understand. I mean, I do have a little familiarity with all that." Poe replied, cracking a brief sideways grin. A small sign that he was calming down now that he was away from all the goings-on of the ship for the time being.

At the question Poe shook his head a little. "Nah, I'm fine. I'll just... make myself at home, I guess." It was just a lighthearted comment to try and cut through the seriousness of everything, but it still felt a little strange to say. Now that he was calming he was also more aware of their bond, and he picked up slightly on that borderline disbelief. Without really thinking about it he reached out to lightly put a hand on Kylo's arm. "I'll be fine, really. I'm not gonna go anywhere while you're gone. Take care of what you need to, I'll be here."
