He tries not to judge too hard for her note tactic. Historically he and Rey and Poe made a longstanding habit of pretending to be asleep even though they knew none of them were actually asleep... back in the day. Sometimes you think "this is dumb, we could at least be talking" and then you lay there until six in the morning anyway. Still though. That's clearly not actually telling him the thing. It's leaving a note about the thing.
Finn gets back to his feet. ]
Did you at least leave it where he could reach it?
[ Write a note, stick it to the fridge. Cassian has to get up and walk all the way to the kitchen to read it because he's extremely observant and heard that she stuck it on the fridge. It's weirdly easy to picture. ]
shoving herself to her feet, jyn finds her chest doesn't feel as tight anymore. the lingering discomfort is still there but it's not so all-encompassing. turns out talking about your problems actually helps???
[ New fact: they sleep in the same bed. This is useless knowledge at current. But it's good that she was a sympathetic and reasonable person about note-leaving. Jyn is a good. She should be proud of herself. ]
Anytime. I think you figured that out already. [ Given the circumstances. He nods. ] Thank you, too. For listening.
[ Like honestly though. Sounded fake but... talking is okay.
Now go ask Cassian if he wants to kiss at four in the morning. ]
[ literally, even at three in the morning because fair is fair. with another faint smile, jyn turns and slips out the door to... go back to ask cassian if he wants to kiss at four in the morning.
nelson laughs at jyn feeling hopeful
