You're a Lieutenant, stationed on Orinda. You're content with your trustworthy crew, but issues with a certain ship (spoiler alert: it's the TIE silencer) end up trapping you on the Steadfast, instead. Your relationship with Kylo Ren isn't how you left it. How many more messes can you stand to clean? (yes, this is the sequel to Fix Your Attitude) cover art by @badtour on tumblr

Kylo Ren x Reader (Modern AU) ******************** 35-year-old Kylo Ren is known for being one of the youngest and most successful entrepreneurs in New York City. He has worked effortlessly to make a name for himself separate from his parents. 10 years ago he started and now runs one of the biggest tech companies in New York and it is constantly growing. You just turned 23 and are a photographer recently employed at one of New York's top business magazines Entrepreneur Magazine. It's been hard for you to make a living off your work but it's your passion and you wouldn't trade it for the world. One day you are called into work to be the head photographer on one of the biggest stories of the year. You walk into the studio and you see him. In an instant, your world changes. He is the most beautiful man you have ever seen and the way he holds himself is infatuating. You wonder how on earth you are going to be able to compose yourself enough to do your job.

Your talent in English literature hasn't gone unnoticed by your professor, Kylo Ren, but you lack the focus and application to meet your full potential. Perhaps he can urge you to give in to that potential. And to him. But the more you learn about Kylo Ren, the more you realize you can use his own tactics as a professor to help unravel the past that he refuses to face. Or, you're infatuated with your dark and brooding English professor, Kylo Ren, who, to your surprise, returns the sentiment. This is a LONG-FORM, SLOW-BURN (emotionally, not sexually) work. Please take note of that if that's not your cup of tea! That's just my style of writing, and reading for that matter, which is okay. And if that's not your cup of tea, that's okay too!
