[likewise, he gets sucked into the void of the beauty that is finn's face. they can take two more seconds. or a million. infinite seconds. whichever. he can't decide if he wants to kiss him or just keep staring until he commits every inch to memory.

if he'd had a better look at this face or spent any actual amount of time with it instead of trying to save the resistance (from his own damn fuckery), he doesn't know if he would've been able to make the call. to not be the big damn hero rose was and just dive after finn instead of looking after his command. is that a problem? yes. is he aware of it? yes. is it shoved way in the back of his mind's closet because he's decided to make it a problem for another day? … also yes.

oh, right. we're doing the thing were we move and don't spend hours blocking a hallway by staring at each other. good plan. go team. he shakes his head, too. (what a mess.) ]

Right. [he kind of makes a coughing noise like that's gonna bring him to life.mp3 and make him remember where things on the ship are. and how to walk.] Right. I think there's …

[he thinks there's rooms. and places. on the ship. that's where that sentence was going. so, you know, forget it. he twines his fingers with finn's like it's his heckin job and starts to walk forward with purpose. but you know not too fast or anything gotta stay as close as humanly possible to finn like someone might try to walk in between them in the hallway and then they'd never see each other again. an actual thing that could happen????

they end up at the bunks just because that is the only place poe could remember how to get to on mental low battery mode. his bunk looks like literally everyone else's bunk because any cute little personal touches he might have had in his room on d'qar or something are gone now. rip. at least he gets a bunk because the falcon only has sleeping quarters for like seven and there are like ten resistance members so you know some poor souls are sleeping on that couch thing/the floor. poe has the top of one of the triple bunks bc he likes to be as high up as possible at all times. it's his thing. letting go of finn's hand to climb up the ladder is one of the hardest things he's ever had to do in his entire dumbass life but it's a sacrifice he's willing to make.]

[bythehand]

[ okay but like, someone walking between them and separating them and setting them adrift for eternity seems like one hundred percent a possibility in this reality, right now. finn is not prepared to deal with that. he will fuck someone up. these otters are gonna hold their dumb otter hands together in the hallways, because the less space between them, the better.

does finn enjoy this temporary disengaging of the hand movement? no. not hardly. he was literally just thinking about the space between them factor and how it was in a good place of very little. what the fuck. but, in counterpoint, he gets to keep poe in visual range the entire time and there's gonna be way less space between them soon. and he can check out poe's butt while he climbs. he's not blind, alright, he's gonna check out poe's butt.

so really, poe's sacrifice is much greater right now. he'll be remembered forever. ]

You would end up all the way up there.

[ he still doesn't know like 3 facts about poe yet, but something about this he can absolutely just Tell. poe the bird man dameron. anything else would be weird. ]

[followhim]

[i mean, it's a nice butt. no one could blame him. once poe is at the top he just throws his boots and jacket over the end and lets them fall on the floor like a boy with no manners. i'm sure his bunkmates think he's great. but they aren't here right now so whatever it's fine!! just finn and he definitely made sure not to hit him with the discarded parts of his outfit.

he peers back down, grinning. back on his bullshit, clearly, now that there's enough air between them for fresh oxygen to reach his brain.]

I like being high up. That gonna be a problem?

[more like a cat than a bird tbh. he finds the highest place in any given room and goes yep i'm gonna get right up there. that sounds about right.]

[bythehand]

[ poe the cat man dameron. finn really did get a cat when he wasn't looking for anything in his life.

he grins back. sure, he misses the butt. he missed the face more. ]

I've worked with worse.

[ if we're talking cats finn is more of a "you moved the furniture so i'm under the bed for the next 24 hours" cat, but he can love a tall places man. he's not scared of heights or triple bunks. so nah it's not a problem. it's not a dealbreaker.

he climbs up far enough on the ladder to to prop his chin on the edge of the bed. this is the only warning u get poe, bc he is going to get in there. he is going to personally destroy the concept of personal space for both of them and he's going to thrive on it. because in this entire galaxy finn can only get into the mental ballpark of 'belonging' to literally one person without having to do an entire mental backflip away from it, and that one person is in front of his face.

Make 👏 Room 👏 For 👏 The 👏 Omega 👏

OR DON'T I GUESS BUT I MEAN HE'S GONNA GO FOR IT ]

[followhim]

[sometimes life just gives you a cat, ok. it's wild. he's just a cat who wants to be a bird.

ANYWAY whatever his fursona apparently is, he is ready 👏 for 👏 this 👏 . he moves back until he's basically against the wall to make room for finn. i was going to try to pull up falcon schematics again but let's be real these are probably twin-sized beds. it's a tight squeeze, but that's okay because there was never going to be any room left for jesus in the first place. as soon as finn is all the way up, he wraps his arms around him and presses his face against finn's neck because of course he does.

this is great. this is even better than the hallway because there's no annoying voice in the back of his mind saying they should probably move out of the way some time this year. they can stay in the bunk forever and it wouldn't matter. (yeah okay it might matter if leia needs poe to actually do anything at all ever but you know what? not thinking about that right now. thinking is banned. he can only think ten seconds ahead at any given time. on a normal day.)

also: he's actually not super-fond of the idea of ~owning~ anyone in that sort of way as a concept, which is why he tried to broach the subject in the first place? but when he's with finn ... it just makes sense. it's not something morally wrong; they chose each other. and he'd never hurt finn or let anything bad happen to him. well. at least, he is TRYING NOT TO but it's really hard when they are the same brand of reckless relentless psychopath. fire meet gasoline.mp3. it's okay, they can just tag-team pvp the entire first order together. that feels like a thing within the actual realm of possibility while he's laying here getting high on finn-spice.]

This is better than the hallway.

[back to spitting out those greatest hits; he'll be up to this same fuckery all week probably.]

[bythehand]

[ no, time is dumb they're here forever now. space jesus has no place in this arrangement, exactly the way it's meant to be.

this is the complete and total lack of personal space he was waiting for. he can do the smelling equivalent of rolling up into a blanket burrito and ignoring the entire outside world. and everything can feel right. instead of all the things happening all the time while the universe feels like it's placed everything two inches to the left of where it always was. he huffs out a quick laugh. ]

The hallway was better than the Finalizer. We might be getting better at this.

[ third time's the charm, back-on-your-bullshit johnson. ]

[followhim]

[he laughs at that, the sound vibrating against finn's neck.]

A garbage masher'd be better than the Finalizer.

[as someone who usually operates at 1000% all day everyday, it's like everything is slowed way down. maybe down to like 100%. the world is smaller. it's just him and finn and this bunk and literally nothing else. it's a really calm, peaceful feeling. he's actually pretty into it.

one of his arms kind of slowly flails around looking for finn's hand like are you sure you don't still want to be otters? just in case?]

[bythehand]

[ shit, he's right. they should still be otters. otherwise what's the point of finn having this username. ]

I don't know. I put my old Captain into a compacter on Starkiller and she made it out fine.

[ just in time to die like scar in the lion king. ]

Think we'd have better odds of getting out of the garbage.

[ the fact that they made it to think they lost their soulmate on jakku was a testament to sheer luck and living on a bullshit prayer. that's his hot take on it. ]

[followhim]

What? You what?

[ ^ probably hasn't actually heard this story because they've spent like five whole minutes talking to each other? with words, not counting the additional like fifteen minutes that were hey can we bone cool cool cool. i just want to note that i forgot poe was there for that business meeting where they talked about it but he didn't get the debrief on how it went so i stand by my tag. ok cool bye]

That's ... what? [he sounds somewhere between amused and impressed, so at least it's a good thing. he's leaving it behind instead of saying what 30 more times.] You're probably right. Now I have two stories about people getting out of compacters and only one story about people breaking out of the Finalizer.

[it's ok buddy you just don't understand how the force magically bends itself around poe dameron for some unknown reason. maybe it's the tree in his yard.]

[bythehand]

Yeah. It was Han's idea.

[ what better story to start getting to know the person you're bonded to for the rest of your life than "we threw her into the trash compacter". now that it's too late, there are probably lots of better stories.

but you know what, he'd do it again. pvp the first order. throw a space fascist into the garbage where they belong. hell yeah. ]

I was pretty sure it would take when we did. Kind of hoped one story would be the limit.

[followhim]

Yeah. Yeah ... don't worry about it. We'll throw more of 'em in the trash. [if that isn't romantic idk what is. he kisses the back of finn's head; he is slowly acclimating to being in such close contact with him non-stop. he is gonna think those two thoughts. he is gonna kiss him. he's doing his best.]

You know, my dad was a ... he did stuff with Han Solo. I thought he was the most amazing person ever.

[bythehand]

[ honestly that's on brand romance. dumpsters all around. dumpsters for days. everyone retires and gets kissed. all the main pairings are gay. rey and rose go on a date to a junkyard and come back with a fully functioning droid they made.

anyway finn just learned two whole poe facts at once? he's rich. ]

Got all your stories first-hand, huh?

[followhim]

[ oh shit, u right. the meme was true.

poe is chill to just ... keep recounting his life. he didn't know this was an interview.]

Uh-huh. My mom was a pilot for General Organa, too, so I got a lot of stories. My mom was the best pilot. Even better than Han Solo.

[he says it with the authority of a small child whose mom told them she was a superhero or something only he clearly still believes it. except — ]

I might be better than both of them though. Pretty sure I'm the best pilot in the galaxy. Just so you know.

[bythehand]

[ that meme is a prophecy.

finn is living on the poe-spice, okay. this includes the poe voice and the poe life story interview. and holding a poe hand like wayward top bunk otters. it's a very scientific process. he knows what he's about. ]

Who said I didn't already know that? Because I think I already knew that.

[ i mean it's basically a matter of opinion right. everyone objectively knows chewie is probably the best pilot in the galaxy. but poe is his favorite one and he trusts him, so it counts. ]

[followhim]

Yeah, I bet you did. [after he saved your ass ... as long as you don't remember the tether fuckery and the crash landing. you know what it was still pretty good for a ship he literally had never flown before so don't @ him. he bites at finn's ear playfully like. just try to @ him, okay. just try to say something.]

One time the general told me I was the best pilot in the galaxy. And she was married to Han Solo, right, so ... I'm pretty sure it's true.

[bythehand]

[ finn is a petty bi. he's stashing secret receipts on everybody just because it's in his nature. so what if his only official experience of knowing poe was the one flying was tethergate... man he wonders if he'll ever get to see poe fly a different thing.

(finn, you fool. you did on takodana. you were yelling at your alpha all along. fool.)

anyway sorry poe, the rude crude ear biting dude, he's laughing at you for sure now. have a couple of pats on the arm. ]

I'm sure it is. She doesn't seem too big on sugarcoating.

[ like not what he's seen of her so far at least. she's a sensible person. ]

[followhim]

[god damn it finn were you not watching when he was being badass and taking out the dreadnought!!!! i mean ... it's probably for the best if you weren't bc that was kind of disaster. we're not gonna think about it right now. it would bring him down and this is definitely a good vibes only zone. (spoilers i remembered he wasn't because he was fucking unconscious. but i'm not editing the tag because i've already committed to these brackets. i'm sorry you have to watch my half-asleep memory fail in realtime.)

is he still rambling??? yep. probably.]

She's the closest thing I've had to a mom since my mom died. She always ... gives me more chances even when I don't deserve it. You know, it's like ... I'm really glad she's in my life. I'm really glad you're in my life.

[gay. everything has to loop back to how much he loves finn, okay. his beautiful perfect soulmate.]

[bythehand]

[ i wasn't even gonna say anything i was just like it's true he didn't see it either way. but i feel your struggle.

the ramble zone is the ideal zone. now finn likes leia even more than he already did. that's a win. poe's mom being gone is less so. he squeezes his hand. ]

I'm glad you're in mine. [ if we're gonna have gay sleepover style rambles we're going all out in gayness. ] Never really had anyone before. There was my fire team, but.

[ shrug. ]

We weren't there to make friends. Or anything else.

[ last week the closest thing he had to a mom was phasma and he thought of his teammates as friends but they weren't diggin the same vibe... now he has a soulmate and like 3 friends/found space family and he loves revolution? the resistance is rad. first order can get rekt. ]

[followhim]

[he feels like he unlocked some exclusive bonus content over here. like when you play one of those phone games and literally never pay for the bonus crap and then one time you do and it's like wow this is a whole new world. in the five minutes poe has known finn, he also ... knows next to nothing about him. he was a stormtrooper??? but now he's not because he's too pure and beautiful. the true cinnamon roll.

he'd like to know more. but also doesn't want to push, since it seems like it'd be a lot based on what he knows about stormtroopers in general.]

Yeah? [there. gentle pushing, but not. finn can say more if he wants, but doesn't have to. probably isn't even going to get a chance to because he doesn't really wait before moving on to more sappy shit — he's pretty bad on a normal day and now he's on overdrive, so.]

You don't have to worry about stuff like that anymore, okay? You've got the Resistance, and you've got me, and we're ... we're a family, right? You and me, we're gonna ...

[the whole shebang. married, settle down on yavin 4 or smth, kids??? it's gonna happen. maybe like, not until after the war, as he keeps being fuckin reminded, but it's going to happen and thinking about it makes warmth well up inside him.]

[bythehand]

[ poe and finn every time they learn a basic fact about each other: Amazing. Poetic Cinema. I'm So Lucky To Have Him Telling Me Things He Is So Good.

how can finn ever be equipped to handle poe's level of sap. poe is too perfect. in the war between sobering deets during a good and nice moment and pushing things aside for later, finn is usually willing to aim for pushing shit aside. they're healthy people. he wants a good thing. ]

Yeah.

[ the family matter weirdly doesn't bother him as much as the teammates matter. as much as slip. it's hard to miss or mourn something you were too young to remember having. it's just... part of life. he has more now than he thought he would. that's basically a miracle. ]

You making plans, Poe Dameron?

[ if it sounds like he's wearing a shit-eating grin it's only bc he is. ]

[followhim]

[ it's true. they're literally like:

poe: my favorite color is orange
finn: i literally just came.

and that's it. that's their relationship. it's beautiful. i can't wait for them to learn more mundane ass facts about each other.

anyway meanwhile poe can hear that shit-eating grin, like excuse you sir, but also not really because he's going to shift his position so slightly so he can peer over finn and see the grin in person. beautiful. worth it. ]

I'm always making plans. You got a problem with that? [clearly not expecting a problem from the way he's grinning back. aw man. he's so good. he could just look at finn's dumb face forever. like he tried to do like five minutes ago in the hallway. we're back into that feedback loop again.]

[bythehand]

[ add it to the kinklist boys. a mid-sex "i fold my socks after i wash them" is all it takes.

if poe is going to the trouble of being in the vicinity then finn is gonna execute some kinda dumb head turn to look back at him. it doesn't matter if he pulls a muscle or whatever he wants. to look at poe and his dumb face. ]

Is there a list of things you're gonna ask me about having a problem with? I don't have a lot of dealbreakers.

[followhim]

[their dirty talk is just whispering shit to each other like "one time i ate a pear" and "i like the ocean." bless them tbh.

you know what? this is silly. the spooning setup was nice for a minute but now poe is over it. he tries to get finn to roll around to face him by taking his handholding hand to pull at finn's shoulder like hey. over here. roll around and look at me. i want easier access to your face sir. why did we stop facing each other??? huge mistake.]

No, not a list. But if you do have any problems, tell me and we'll figure it out. Okay?

[bythehand]

[ when a handsome pilot smushes up in his bunk and lets you be the little spoon, who isn't gonna think it's a good idea. 10/10 good spooning experience, on to the 10/10 staring directly into poe's face experience. both things that stormtroopers don't get to do.

of course, generally speaking, hopefully nobody else at all is getting the little spoon + stare directly into poe's face experience from this same vantage point. finn thinks that would be a problem. he's positive it isn't going to be something that he actually has to pvp someone over.

while he's here, he presses his forehead to poe's. mulls over his answer. significant parts of his brain are busy going "look we're never going to have any problems ever as long as he's in range so idk about you man". hopped up on poe-spice. the wheel keeps on turning. how uncivilized. ]

Same goes for you, right?

[followhim]

[don't worry finn everyone else in the galaxy is dead to him. the like ten other people on this ship who. the first order who. bazillions of humans and aliens and droids and whoever who. (bb-8 doesn't count he's their son.) there's only finn.

the degree of "there's only finn" rises when he's facing him and their foreheads are pressed together. he can smell him so much. there is literally nothing better he's deceased bye.]

Yeah ... yeah. Of course.

[what are problems? could not think of a single problem right now even if he wanted to. problems are a made up concept like time. what were they even talking about again?

you know what he's just gonna go for it. finn's face is in his face and it's a crime they've waited this long honestly. who would've thought they'd be the couple who saved kissing on the mouth for dead last in their list of intimacy checkpoints??? but it's ok because poe is gonna check it off

right

the heck

now.

he closes that like .00005 millimeters of space left between their faces and goes in for a kiss, biting at finn's lip as he pulls away. maybe he's not bite-y because he's an alpha so much as because of who he is as a person. he will probably go in for more kissing in like less than a second but he wants to savor just the one first.]
