"Two seconds ago you were yelling in my face that you didn't think it was possible to curb his violent impulses, and how I can't treat this as a learning moment, but you want me to deal with him and you want him to learn his lesson, and when I ask you to spell it out and tell me what you mean? You just double back to talking about what a skull-fucking, mass murdering monster he is, so that you don't have to say what you actually came here to say to me."

Because Fives might know that saying the actual word would be a direct line to conspiracy and demotion and never getting his deal, but everything about his approach to this sings to Rhys with the desire for retribution. Fives doesn't have the bearing of a warden and a colleague coming in search of a resolution or reassurance that his inmate will be safe. He's full of a red anger, and a sense of hatred and disgust that long predates this incident, and Rhys doesn't believe he'd be satisfied by anything short of a guarantee that Hux would suffer.

"So no, you didn't use your big boy words and ask for blood, but I hear you loud and clear, and you can go fuck yourself."

Fives grinds his teeth as he glares at Rhys, and his fists are clenching and unclenching at his sides. "No, I don't think he can curb his violent impulses because I don't think he cares to. I don't think he considers any of the rest of us to be people. But even he can't be too stupid to learn not to indulge them if the consequences are too high.

"All he learned from this is to take a kill shot instead of taking the risk of trying to incapacitate his victim first assuming he can take his time finishing them off after." Because he has absolutely no doubt that was what Hux was after, he would never have been in range of Selina's attack if he hadn't been stupid enough to saunter over thinking he could gloat and torment her before killing her.

"Take his toys away, take his privacy away, lock him in Zero to stare at the walls for a week once he gets out of the infirmary, haunt his kriffing steps. Make sure if he decides to kill someone again you're the only option because he can't get away from you."
