If a sarlacc did have an anus, it would look exactly like Hux, when his face is all... [Hand gesture indicating squished up.] You know. When he looks like he smells something bad and has to take a dump at the same time.

You know. How he always looks.

[He gives Finn's shoulder a reassuring squeeze.] That's all you can do. Try.

That's how he always--yeah. [Finn bites his lip and attempts a smile, even if it's weak.]

...I kinda freaked out there, didn't I?

That's better. [He gives Finn's shoulder a much gentler shake.]

You did, a little. But I don't blame you. It can't be easy.

[Finn takes a couple of deep breaths, trying to calm down further with the meditation he's been learning from the Jedi.]

Sorry, man. I guess I just never thought he'd show up.

You don't have to be sorry. I'm your friend. That's what I'm here for.

Guess it's a reminder that we never know who's going to pop their ugly head up. [Please not Kylo Ren next. Please not ever.]

Heh. I'd be a lot more freaked out if I didn't have anyone to go to.

[And considering how much he's already freaking out, that's saying something.

Finn bites his lip.]

Can I ask you for one more favor, Poe?

You've got a lot of friends here, Finn. Always remember that.

Sure, shoot.

When you transferred over, you said it might be okay if we bunked together, if I needed it.

Yeah. Offer still stands, Finn.

I think I do need it. At least for a couple days.

[Well, this is what comes from being totally platonic friends with someone you have a massive crush on. He's got this. Just a couple of dudes, being supportive of each other.]

Not a problem.

[He'll try not to have any nightmares, at least?]

Thanks, man. I--think I'd just feel better about it if I knew I wasn't alone, you know?

[It's not the nightmares he's worried about.]

It's not a problem. Any time you need me, I'm here.

[~~He could probably help with the accidental boner too~~.]

I'm gonna owe you even more after this.

[Hey guys gotta help each other out sometimes.]

You saved my life, Finn. And you're my friend. You don't owe me anything.

[Now that he's finally starting to relax a bit, Finn grins.]

Yeah, we'll see if you still think that in the morning.

[His blue balls don't get a vote.]

Can't be worse than Snap. You really can't.

All right. Well, I'll bring my stuff by tonight, then.

[Not that he has much, beyond a pillow and some changes of clothing.]

I'll clean the place up, since I'm going to have a guest. [It's already clean. He's teasing.]

[That gets a smile and a snort out of Finn.]

Come on, I've never even seen the Captain doing an inspection.

Maybe she's just biding her time. Until we're least expecting it.

[Finn claps Poe on the back and clambers up the ladder.]

You got nothing to worry about. Be right back.

[Only not, because he's going to get accosted by Pinkie. Oops?]
