Ren. [It's an acknowledgement of his presence and nothing more. He doesn't directly look at Ren as he punches in the code, allowing the other man the chance to observe the new code for himself.]
[Hux shows up exactly ten minutes later. His uniform is pressed and exactly to code despite it being the end of a long and harrowing day. His coat hangs off his shoulders, and he alerts Ren through the comm, standing as nonchalantly as Hux ever could in public view outside Ren's quarters.
When the door opens, he straightens back to his usual posture, back straight and stiff. There are bags under his eyes, but they are as sharp and alert as ever. Caf was a wonder that proved a necessary miracle after the destruction of Starkiller. He offers the man a curt and polite nod.]
Supreme Leader. [And after a moment's consideration of the best approach he continues.]
For dissevering
[Hux will be there, not a minute earlier or later than agreed upon. The bags under his eyes have started to get looks from even his most devoted men, but Hux does not waiver or falter. He pushes as hard and as sure as he has from the get go, fighting with everything he has to keep the position he has earned through patience, sacrifice, careful planning, and decisive action.
He is fully dressed in his uniform, gloves and all, with his hair still slicked back. He slows on approach, the slightest hesitation when he catches sight of Ren in the hall. It only lasts for a moment and then he continues forward with his usual stride as if nothing happened.]

After you.
