[Hux frowns, why would such a thing matter to him? It's not like he really knows this person and she's not really of the First Order, but for whatever reason, he doesn't look happy by the thought of this.]
...Fine, I'll try to think of something else. [He grumbles and stares out the window, thinking that he's being mature about this.]
Mnn, hate? No, but I would have to punish them. [She smiled, not one to really hate anyone outside a select few. But she was glad to see that Hux would be willing to try something else.]
Thank you for thinking of something else. Don't break your promise, though. [She held out her pinkie.]
[He doesn't want to be punished. It'll probably be painful... he'd almost prefer the hate in that case.]
Promises are just words, people break them all the time. [Hux thinks he's being so adult-like saying this!! Also he doesn't seem to quite understand the whole pinkie promise thing.]
Then it takes a great person to keep a promise once they make it because nothing is keeping them to their word beyond themselves. It's the ultimate sign of control and honor.
Are you a man of honor and control? Or does breaking a promise mean nothing to you?
[He... he never thought of promises like that before. Hux is having difficulty refuting this, what can he say against her?! Does that mean she's right? Harumph.]
Of course I am!! [Honor isn't a huge thing to him, control on the other hand...] Fine, I promise that I'll at least try and think of a different solution than destroying planets.
[Yes, Armitage, other people are capable of being right, even the ones you hate. Or are you going to argue about facts for the sake of being contrary?]
Only try? You aren't going to give yourself a challenge? You only want an easy way out?
[There's no way he's not stepping up to the challenge now.]
I'm not taking the easy way out! I'll see your promise and fulfill it!! [He's not going to let his capabilities be questioned! He's almost an officer, he can definitely do this!]

Well, good, it's a promise, then. I'll come back and check in on you and see how it goes.

[But for whatever reason, he doesn't want to leave it at that.] I-I won't let you down.
[Except he does oops. Well, it's just a dream anyway, so no big deal...?]
