[When the video feed begins, there is a redhead frowning at the screen.]

As far as planets go, this isn't the worst place I've been to. Though I suppose this hardly counts as a planet.

[The frown deepens, and it's obvious that he is struggling to wrap his head around the fact that he has found himself here on a turtle and it's difficult to grasp.]

However, there are some deep-seated issues in this city that should be addressed. How do you expect to have any sort of progress when this place is so divided? There is strength in unity, which all of you seem to fail to see. Instead of competing with one another for power, wealth, and resources, it would be much more logical for all of you to fall in line. Some who have power and autonomy do not always deserve it, and are too feeble-minded for it. Should they cast their support in favour of those who are fit to lead, there will no longer be chaos.

If you're honest with yourself, you can admit that it's what's best for any society.

Comments

[redlightgreenlight]

The ones from my world at least.

[generalginger]

I assume that extends to you as well. What is your species like?

[redlightgreenlight]

I am...unique.

[generalginger]

How so?

[He can't be blamed for being curious.]

[redlightgreenlight]

I am the only one of my kind.

[It's hard to tell if she's proud of that or not.]

[generalginger]

What's that like?

[Hux can't tell, honestly, but he can imagine it going either way. It's either an accomplishment or a tragedy.]

[redlightgreenlight]

[She hums for a moment, thinking.]

That would depend on the world, I suppose.

[generalginger]

[He's unsure if she means here in comparison to her home world, or that she has access to different planets, too.]

How about in context of your home world.

[redlightgreenlight]

Well. I'm desired by many, valuable to some and dangerous to all.

[She lifted a brow in amusement.]

What words would you use to describe me?

[generalginger]

[He considers this for a moment. There's really only one word that comes to mind.]

Power.

[redlightgreenlight]

[Perhaps he was more observant than she thought, but that just made him more interesting.]

You would do well to remember that.

[generalginger]

I'll be sure to.

[He knows a threat when he sees one, even if it's subtle.]

[redlightgreenlight]

Good.

[It wasn't so much a threat in her eyes, more of a warning than anything else, but as long as her point was made, she felt satisfied.]

Do you have a name, kind sir?

[generalginger]

Hux.

[In another situation, he'd offer his ranking, as it's something he's very proud of. But there's little point in doing so here, as he assumes few would appreciate his rank.]

[redlightgreenlight]

What? They don't have last names on your world?

Valdis Dronningen av Hundene.

[generalginger]

That's quite a name.

[he just prefers not being addressed by his first name and generally never offers it.]

[redlightgreenlight]

My name is Valdis, the rest is simply a title.

[But she figured she'd offer it anyway.]

[generalginger]

What is your title in Basic?

[redlightgreenlight]

Ladies never reveal all their secrets.

[She smirks]

Especially not to someone they have only just met.
