A note on romance: I will ship all of the new trilogy characters with Kylo Ren (except Snoke/Family). But I have no interest in exploring domestic-style takes on them. Thank you for understanding.
[ She slips off the makeshift sling he has made for her, stuffing it into her pockets and extending her arm for the first time since it had been injured. Better to overextend it, injure it further, and live than the alternative if something really were waiting for them.
That's all she has to take care of, though, and his armor is bulky and unwieldy. He handles it without much issue, but it's a long process, plate armor. And she doesn't want to dawdle. So she approaches him, reaches up to take the leather strap of the plate as he hoists it around his chest so she can tighten it down for him. It strains her shoulder. She bites down on the inside of her cheek to try forcing it to relax, or stretch, or something.
She's never put plate on a man before, but she's taken plenty of it off in order to bring scrap metal back from battlefields. It's not hard to figure out. It'll help speed the process along, if he'll allow it. ]
[He is somewhat startled by the way she comes to his rescue unprompted, but beyond a brief and confused glance down at her, he does not comment on it. With her holding the breastplate closed, he makes quick work of the opposite side. He finishes a bit faster than her despite the angle due to the fact that he is not injured. But when they finish, he just needs to reattach his cloak and pull his gloves on.
So he bends over for the cape and hooks it over his broad shoulders. He has to drop to one knee to reach his gauntlets. And then, when he is done, he glances to Rey long enough to force out a:]
...thank you.
[Kylo Ren fixes the last of his armor and picks up his scabbard to tie his sword down. But, just in case, he draws it. They could be walking into an ambush, or it could be nothing at all. He is somewhat regretting allowing his men to drink quite so much.
He squares himself and puts his hand on the handle to push it open, stepping out to get a better look of the inn.
If an ambush had occured. they were thorough in cleaning it up. The common area was empty, save for a grizzled old man sweeping the floor.]
[ When he looks up to thank her, Rey feels an uneasy prickling sensation wash over her. It's not for him, she reminds herself, looking away. If something has happened, he's between her and a painful death. Possibly a slow torture. It's hard to say, with men who have the sort of reputations Snoke and Hux do. She's not stupid. And she's not softening to him. She's just terrified of what he's dragged her into.
That's also, she thinks, why she regrets keeping awake to try and slit his throat in his sleep. Not because of the rage and betrayal, but because now she would be exhausted if they did have to fight for their lives.
She keeps behind him as he steps out into the inn. Even keeps quiet her questions about why he wouldn't rouse his men too, if something's really wrong. But there's just an old man there, doing his job. Rey scoffs at her own fear, and Ren's caution, and she steps around him to approach the man. ]
Is it always so quiet at this hour?
[ The old man looks up at her, and only when she's in front of him does she realize that she doesn't recognize him from the night before. The inn's staff had been kind to her. Had tried to help her, when they saw who she was with. But not him. ]
