Who ever did this I love you, you are my saviour in life
oh my god its me. my poor flatmate puts up with so much.
Me: I don't cry much. My bestie: Yesterday you were crying about [insert non-canon gay ship]. Me, sobbing: They're literally ment for each other.
this is my favourite series of gifs ever.
Behind the scenes of The Hug™
Your arms are my only safe place
Summary:
Since their first embrace on their reunion, Finn has never been able to forget the warmth of Poe's arms.
Notes:
This ship has always had something of the Holy Grail for me, so this is my first fanfic about them, bear with me, I'm still figuring out their personalities a bit. I hope I did them justice.

As he sees an X-Wing land on the busy runway, Finn starts to run. He stops as the canopy opens and a pilot with a familiar silhouette comes down. The helmet prevented him from recognizing him, and Finn stood there watching until he was jostled by BB-8, who pushed past him and rolled toward the pilot at full speed.
The pilot took off his helmet and Finn's heart began to beat faster.
It was Poe!
Poe rushed towards BB-8 and suddenly looked up and saw Finn.
He looked as stunned as Finn who had started running again and exclaimed, "Poe, Poe Dameron!"
They ran toward each other and embraced.
"You're alive!"
"So are you!"
"What happened to you?"
They interrupted each other, questions rushing in with the joy of reunion.
Then Poe moved back, too quickly for Finn's taste and asked, "What happened? I was thrown from the crash, I woke up at night, no you, no ship, nothing."
Poe looked over at BB-8 who beeped something then turned to Finn.
"BB-8 says you saved him."
Finn shook his head, "No, no, no. It wasn't just me."
Poe put his hand on Finn's shoulder and said with a big, genuine smile, "You completed my mission, Finn." then paused, looking puzzled, "That's my jacket?"
Finn, embarrassed, hurried to take it off, but Poe stopped him, "No, no, no. Keep it. It suits you." then he added in a softened tone, "You're a good man, Finn."
And those words were as comforting as the embrace of their reunion.
Thinking of that day, Finn instinctively pulled Poe's jacket tighter around him. Ever since that day, it had been like an extension of Poe's arms around him. The memory of the day Poe had told him he was a good man.
The way Poe had looked at him, the words he had spoken, had been like an extension of that hug, leaving a warmth in Finn that he craved after.
This kind of touch was foreign to him and he had not expected the multitude of sensations that had overwhelmed him after.
And especially not this warmth.
There had been others hugs after the first one.
Comrade hugs.
Co-general's hugs.
Friends' hugs.
Lovers' hugs.
From then on, hugs had taken on a different meaning for Finn, who also knew that no other hugs would be as important as the ones Poe offered him without restriction.
Nothing was better for Finn than Poe's arms wrapped around him, locking him in an enclosed space filled with warmth.
Probably one of the safest places in the world for Finn.
No matter the time, no matter the place, and no matter the way, the embrace of Poe's arms had the power to stop the world for Finn. Just like that day in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the rebel base.
From the moment Poe had embraced him, it had been just him and Poe, Poe and him.
And the time which passed had not changed anything there.
The sensations were always the same, even stronger, because they were nourished by the love which they shared from now on.
There wasn't a night when he didn't fall asleep or wake up in his lover's warm, loving embrace.
Before Poe, Finn never stayed in bed longer than the time he needed to rest. It was a habit ingrained in his training as a Storm Trooper from an early age.
A habit that had persisted long after he had deserted.
But Poe had changed everything, even his nights.
Because now Finn had a reason to let his nights linger.
Because of the man who shared them and who was currently watching him walk out of the bathroom on their bed wearing only a pair of boxer shorts, his hair wet from the shower he had just had. Poe, who looked at him with so much warmth in his eyes.
They gazed at each other for a few seconds in silence and then, as always, Poe straightened up a little and lifted the comforter, a sign for Finn to join him.
Finn slipped under it and pressed himself against Poe, the fear of being too clingy long gone because Finn knew that Poe loved to hug as much as Finn loved to receive hugs.
Reciprocity and complementarity.
Poe closed his arms around Finn and gently kissed the back of his neck as Finn let out a contented sigh and then whispered, "I'm home."
Poe must have heard him because he tightened his arms around him and replied, "Welcome home."
After a moment of silence, Finn murmured softly, "Poe."
"Hmm?"
"I love you."
Poe made Finn turn in his arms and Finn could see the same smile on his face from the day he told him he was a good man as he replied, "I don't know the reason for that spontaneous declaration, but you know I love you too."
Finn pressed a kiss to his chest and replied, "I don't need any particular reason, I just wanted to say it," then he buried his face in Poe's neck breathing in that oh-so-familiar, comforting scent.
Then Finn put his arms around Poe's waist and held him just as tight. Just like in their first embrace.
Poe reached out his hand to turn off the light.
Finn could finally let go, safe in Poe's arms, surrounded by his warmth.
A warmth that told him, "You're home."
A warmth that told him, "You're safe."
A warmth that told him, "You're not alone anymore."
A warmth that told him, "I love you."

Still not beta'd
Still not my native language
Still hoping you'll enjoy this story 🥰
Still thanking you for bearing with me 😝
(minor) spoilers for tros
wow, just watched TROS and Disney giving Poe a (subtle) love interest out of thin air (alongside doing the same to Finn in TLJ) just to not make Stormpilot a thing (which is way healthier than the other extremely toxic ship they made canon) is the epitome of queerbaiting. just. fuck off.
ahhh, nothing like another night alone in my bed crying because of a fictional gay couple.
T h em,,,
but just imagine poe waking up in the middle of the night be he’s feeling super warm only to discover it’s because finn has snuck into his bed to spoon him and then rey snuck in to spoon finn and now poe is the tiniest spoon in all of spoon land and he has to stuff his fist in his mouth for a bit bc these nerds are the best most adorable thing that’s ever happened to him
“Golden”
color variation of my Poe and Finn art. I just love these space boyfriends <3
Together into the future space adventures <3
Is this not how the scene went after he proposed on the tarmac?
the biggest steal of 2019 is disney not making these two ships canon because they’re cowards
That’s one hell of a pilot. Based on an old “draw your ship” trend.
hello there here are two more gifs of resistance dads au ¿?
-Poe never ceases to be amazed when her husband is in general badass mode and has to hide his heart eyes
-Every time Poe removes his beard, Finn always tries to convince him to leave it until one day he won (?)
Another edition of Finn and Poe as generals years later!
I like to imagine them as "dads of the Resistance" like Leia, being the father figure of many
After watching the Dune trailer, it is inevitable to think of Poe and Finn as badass generals
Here a lil Au "12 years later" ¿??
Bonus + The stormpilot baby
a FinnPoe baby would be the most beautiful thing in the galaxy
A few quick edits about my fancast / au genderswap!
Please don't repost without my permission ;; <3

What about a dark side Au? /wink
Poe is the best pilot of the First Order, commander of the tie fighters Finn is the deadly Captain FN, leader of the best squad of stormtroopers and sensitive to force.
/ I had to take advantage of Oscar's image in Dune sksks
A quick edit FinnPoe bcs this quote is always perfect for them
It was the most bazaar and awesome thing. (But yea definitely frustrating)
Ahh man my love for Poe Dameron (and Oscar Isaac in general) really makes me wish I had been part of the Star Wars fandom while the movies were coming out, I’m sure that was so much fun (but also frustrating lol I recognize how incredibly frustrating it must have been)
I’ve already started queueing up fics to read, and I’m going through some playlists, but if anyone has some great Poe fics they’d recommend (specifically FinnPoe or Finn, Poe, Rey friendship) that’d be lovely!!!
