But how can he say any of that aloud, here in the Capitol of all places? His expression turns apologetic, the most he can do. He could have anyone he wanted but he doesn't want to feel wanted sometimes. And right now he can't shake that.
Cassian climbs to his own feet, hands hovering in case she loses her balance. "You are very drunk, Jyn."
