She'd much preferred when she was dressed like a tree.
She flinches again when Cassian speaks, seeming almost startled. She shouldn't be, the past Victors she had met had mostly all been kind. The very handsome boy in Four who smelled like salt air had braided a strand of rope through her hair while they waited and the braid crown had been much less uncomfortable. Maybe...
Her hands lift to drag her hair free from the elastic while the Capital escort is distracted, shaking it down around her shoulders, a waterfall of dark hair. It's choppier than it looked pulled back, as if the ponytail itself had been trimmed for perfect neatness once it had been tied up.
"She's too loud." Jyn's own voice is low and quiet, almost raspy. Like she wakes up screaming every night from dreams of drowning in blood and her voice suffers as a result. "They're all too loud."
