He erases a lot of it, types rapidly, talking at the same time.
"There's no rule that we can't talk to each other. And I'm willing to talk to you, so that's not where the bounadary is. I'll tell you if you hit it."
He hands the communicator back.
To the Admiral;
It has been six months and I regret to inform you that Jedao Garach has not graduated. While I believe we have made some progress, I promised to step aside after six months elapsed, and I believe that the most important thing I can do for him now is to honor that promise. Please unpair us.

"If there's one thing I've learned from this, I don't ever want to be enemies with you. And I'd like to keep speaking. You're odd, in a way I can't describe."
Jedao huffs something in the approximate clade of laughter.
"That's one word for it," he agrees, lips twitching at the corners. "I'm probably still going to be an asshole sometimes but you seem stubborn enough to deal with that."

He asks honestly, reading over the communicator once it's handed back to him. Hux cracks a smile.
"It's good. Much better." He presses Send.

Hux knows too much about him; they've weathered too many upheavals together, no matter how gracelessly, in some cases.
"So we may as well. Although I suppose as the recent stabbing victim, I should really defer to you on the subject."

"I am going to miss you. Of course you won't be disappearing, but I'll miss this."
Whatever this is.
