Kylo strolled alongside Reveille on the way back to the Bridge. He paid attention to the briefing she provided for him, but it would be light to say he was unhappy with the situation.
All of this, because he refused to let go of Lothal when Tarkin threatened them. And damned if he allowed the planet to slip through his fingers without a fight.
“Good.” But if it Tarkin did continue to be a hindrance in their plans, then they will need to do what it took to take a step back from Lothal and reexamine their situation. “Hopefully it should not have to come down to firing on Lothal, but if Tarkin continues to be a pest, then we’ll have no choice.”
And if they did have to fire on the planet while the general was still down there...Kylo wouldn’t be upset. An irritating setback? Yes. But they’ll continue on. “How much longer until we reach the planet’s orbit?”

Lavinia had wanted to sit for the meeting, as she didn’t know how long to expect it to go on. But, in her observation, it seemed that everyone else were more content with standing around the table. She resisted the urge to roll her eyes. Men.
But when Pandion asked his question, she was the first to answer. “Due to the presence of our academy, as well as businesses and schools Sienar Fleets may want to establish, the First Order will have outposts stationed where we would see fit to ensure optimal protection for the people of Lothal.”
Tybalt was the one to speak up first. “But you have been proven to have a weak spot. It wasn’t a clear victory in your...little skirmish against Tarkin’s fleet, was it?” His hands remained clasped behind his back, slightest bit of amusement evident on his face.
At that, Lavinia didn’t know how to answer. She was only aware there was a skirmish, and that Tarkin fled the battle, but any other details she left for Armitage to answer.
