[ Rhys reads it as sincerity, because this is a legitimate tragedy as far as he's concerned. ]
Oh my god Jyn Okay go up there and ask the chef guy for a Latte for yourself. Don't even bring anything back for me, just do that. You haven't truly lived until you have had a proper Latte. It's basically a rule at this point.
[ sometimes she regrets telling him her name in that first simulation, when he uses it so freely, but his pointless talk of stuff like lattes is entertaining, if nothing else, so she lets it slide. ]
good to know i've wasted over twenty years of my life
[ she's already on thesa, so she might as well enjoy a latte... while she plots out a grid system to search all the pods for saw, lyra, and galen. ]
[ If he knew she wasn't into him using it he'd definitely use it less. Names aren't usually so secret, especially when it's direct communication so he doesn't even think that Jyn might want to hide hers. It's just...normal to use someone's given name as far as he's concerned.
Plus he thinks it's a rather nice name. ]
Just think of how many more you could've lost without me. You're welcome by the way.
[ she could get used to hearing it, maybe. jyn erso on this odd, little planet, in their mismatched, temporary home.
it's still oddly new, for something she's had since birth, unused for over half a decade. she doesn't hate picking it up and carrying it now, but she doesn't know what else to do with it — if anything could be worthy of the name given to her by galen and lyra erso. ]
hmm life without rhys less nudity in the house free access to the bathroom fewer people to trouble myself with no lattes
[ a beat. ]
no i can't imagine it not when i like the lattes :)
[ Look those robes are a fashion disaster and he Deserves Better. You can't expect him to go out looking like some sort of druid Jyn, gawd. He's got style and class.
...Sometimes. ]
For the record those clothes are not my style and first paycheck I get I am buying new ones so that even if Abelas locks me out again I'll have some.
And anyway I actually get along with Zevran! It's the other guy that's the problem. Who knew elves could be so grumpy??
[ neither the use of the term "home" nor the implication that he'll be waiting for her goes unnoticed. it's been half a decade since she had a home or anyone who might wait. her temporary employers and allegiances would have sold her out in heartbeat. she would do the same. she did do the same. ]
[ Normally? So might Rhys. When it comes to most people he isn't terribly attached to them and while he might not screw them over entirely, he wouldn't go out of his way for them either.
That all changes once he starts to Care thought. The moment he perceives friendship this priorities change, and Jyn? He Cares about Jyn. She's funny, sarcastic, strong, smart...all great qualities in a roommate if he says so himself. She reminds him a bit of Fiona, and that's a wanton comfort. ]

Yeah okay. I'll hold down the fort while you're gone. Take your time.

Hope you find what you're looking for up there. Come home soon okay?
[ Yeah that's right. He called it home and he's waiting for you, dwi. ]
I mean I'll obviously bother the heck out of you on these things while you're up there but you know what I mean.
no subject
I know.
[ a beat. ]
I'll see you at home. soon.
