[he nods to confirm, then continues with:] It's ... strange. There are a lot of things that are similar enough to home to seem familiar, but completely different. It's not a bad place.

I have to tell you something. There's someone else from our world here. Someone from the First Order — the successor of the Empire in the war we're fighting now. He's a high ranking officer, and he's been quiet but I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.

[coincidentally that would not be very far because hux is like twice poe's size but shut up ok]
