Hux wasn't in my way so much as a thorn in my side. [ But the tone of her voice gives away that he had, to at least some degree, been in her way and she simply didn't like to admit it. ] I had planned to remove him eventually. Doing so right away would have only caused more headaches for me and I had enough to deal with being as half the fleet was destroyed above Crait.
[ It doesn't occur to her how easily conversing with him comes. As far as most on the ship were concerned Poe was nothing more than a prisoner, certainly not someone she would give aid to or speak so openly with. Only the Knights knew of her plans; it wasn't necessary for anyone else to know. If Hux had known? She imagines he would have made more of an effort to kill Poe rather than just torture him. ]
So yes, I control the First Order, and by proxy control what the First Order owns or has control of. [ Ships, star systems, governments. Granted, a few of the military contracts were yet shaky given some who dealt with Snoke weren't as keen on dealing with her, but she was working on it. To say there was quite a bit more on her plate than there had been when she simply lead the Knights of Ren was an understatement.
When they at last arrive at the nearest medical bay there's a small flurry of confusion and concern from the non-droid staff; news of the fight with Hux was traveling fast. ]
He needs treated for electro shock, I'm not certain what else. [ She informs the staff, only removing her arm from around him once he's seated. Her wince at the movement draws attention as much as the wound itself though she basically ignores the staff hovering around her as she moves to perch on the neighboring cot. Kylo rips off the sleeve of her top for easier access to the wound and waves off some of the staff. ] It's only a single blaster shot, just patch it up for now. I'm more concerned about his condition.
