[ It's an ease in technicality, but it still satisfies Hux on some level. Perhaps it's in the precision, the even spacing, the straightness of his posture. Regardless of how TX-701 may feel, he exudes a confidence. A pride. Such a thing would make lesser men weep at how much loyalty he shows.
Hux is not lesser men, but he is moved.
Though, there's a downturn at the corner of his mouth– 701's response isn't really so much of an answer is it? Vaguely, he wonders if they went too far with the conditioning. No, that can't be. Both he and Phasma were careful. Are careful. They're driven by logic, reason, and restraint. Going overboard is unheard of. Do not waste energy where it can be conserved.
Perhaps, then, it's time to keep a sharper eye on 701. To engage in conversation with more frequency. While Hux is almost at the top of the food chain being in his position, visiting officials should not be given examples of troopers who can't answer correctly. Blind fluff can become meaningless. His troops will not be without drive and thought.
(Even if it all bends towards the First Order). ]
Indeed, fortune is smiling on us all. [ True and true. Though Kylo Ren puts a stitch in things more often than he'd like. ] Your answer, I find, is a bit lacking.
[ With a small gesture, he turns, indicating the other follow. ] Accompany me. I wish to hear your honest opinion.
