In terms of the wider, galactic-scale story of the sequel trilogy, Kylo is the hero’s direct personal antagonist, but Hux is the overarching villain and drives the plot more (until Episode IX, where, somehow, Palpatine returned). Then in Episode IX, Hux is integral to the triumph of the Resistance over Palpatine.
Because of all this, Hux’s character arc covers the wider-scale story of the sequel trilogy pretty extensively, but because I get the sense he wasn’t intended to be that significant, it doesn’t overlap with the established protagonists’ arcs all that much besides being kind of a background antagonistic force.
So, basically, if there were to be a book or movie about Hux covering the events of the sequel trilogy, it would be pretty easy to tie the original story together without just rehashing and rewriting. And the best part is that, like, if this hypothetical story were to really get into it, Hux turning against the Order in the end and getting it defeataed could be such a good character story to go with the plot story. The fanatical idealist who, although too much of an extremist to be a good person, stuck by his principles even when that meant having to destroy his own life’s work to prevent it from being used to destroy the galaxy.
Anyway, get Hux a spin-off and boom you’ve got the perfect premise to tie together the sequels as a cohesive single storyline instead of a jumbled unplanned mess, a proactive protagonist (and one who isn’t overly similar to other current canon SW protagonists), and a great tragic character arc that resolves in a way perfectly fitting a “well-intentioned extremist” type villain protagonist whose whole shtick is “fix the galaxy at all costs.” I’m sleep deprived but thanks for coming to my TED talk.
ALSO also, it would be really easy to have Hux as a protagonist without having to villify the actual good guys, since he has plenty of also-evil enemies who could provide conflict, and you could also work in a lot of conflict around his failing health and attempts to cover it up and stave off his own potential death by overwork. He’d be a great basis for a story from the villain’s POV but without putting the heroes through awful character derailment.
not even joking all that much, when you think about it, hux would kind of be the perfect character to tie the sequels together into a more cohesive narrative if he got his own decently written media (book or movie or some such). will post a longer take on this later because my break is about to end and i’m not quite enough of a hux simp to get fired over it

So lately I’ve noticed a very substantial dip with notes on my posts, and I’ve lost a lot of followers as well, so I’m just wondering if y’all are still here and still wanting me to post.
It’s sort of disheartening to see my incorrect quotes get so little notes because I don’t see that anyone else is seeing them or enjoying them.
so…let me know if you guys want me to continue or not.

Y’all Sony yoinked Spider-Man back and they aren’t sharing the rights with Marvel anymore
RIP
To be clear I rejoice whenever Disney loses its slimy money-grabbing grip on something but PETER PARKER GODDAMNIT
And I know Sony won’t disgrace his character (look at Into the Spiderverse) but like???? He most likely won’t be in any of the Avengers movies because of this???
Y’all nutting over Loki with short hair as if y’all hadn’t been stanning his greasy ass since the buttcrack of the dawning of time, meanwhile I’ve been team 2011 Loki hair since the beginning and nobody batted an eye
Consider this my little check-in! I hope you all are doing well!
Feel free to comment, say hi, send me an ask, anything you want! I just wanna hear from you, ‘cause I feel like I haven’t properly greeted all of you in forever!
Anyways. I am back with full intent to be more active and looking forward to chatting with all of you again! <3 <3
