[ It's a solid plan, it will work. Especially with Ren out of sight, if not literally out of mind as a result.
The problem is, it fails.
Hux doesn't, in fact, want to wake up at all, and why would he? It's a shabby backwater moon and here is his own ship, phantom crew scattered around the more he thinks of how much he wants to stay, as though materialising directly from his craving to be as close to home as possible. Not on Arkanis, no, but right here. Ren won't be of any help in the Quarantine, he's too selfish and obsessed with his little Force-magic to actually assist Hux in formulating a plan to ensure their survival for the next five years. Ren will vanish into the crowds and Hux will be without anyone at all, not Phasma and certainly not the boy-man who could actually prove an asset if he weren't so volatile.
When he enters the bridge and heads to the viewport at the front, he's surprised a moment later to hear the same doors opening again. He has a feeling caught somewhere between dread and anticipation ...
Subconsciously, the hallways have all led to the same place. ]
