[ when bb-8 is lifted up, his body still spinning and treading the air, poe flat-out forgets how to breathe. he's bracing himself for it; he's bracing himself for kylo ren to use the force to smash his droid into pieces and he doesn't think he can watch.
and then she just flings him into the wall. he exhales. it was still horrible, his eyes are still glassy, but he didn't have to watch whatever was going to happen to bb-8 next.
it's only after, when the troopers start to cart the droid off, that poe considers how much information bb-8 has. not only a database of resistance information, but a database of himself. logs he kept, files about himself and even his parents that he uploaded. holos of himself and his friends (why did bb record so many of rey and finn? he doesn't know). all that information, ranging the whole spectrum from vital to innocuous, going to the first order for kylo ren and any other first order officers to sort through.
a different, nauseous kind of dread settles in the pit of his stomach.
he doesn't say anything, but he doesn't need to because the way he's lying there feeling dead inside and hopeless speaks volumes. ]
