King Galen has already left a good impression, at least as being Jyn's father, because he is very taken in with Chantico and vise versa. While his dog loves most everyone, it's still nice when people do the same in return.

He's only a little bit taller than Cassian, which just makes Jyn seem small all over again, but he does hold out his hand to shake his girlfriend's father's hand, trying to approach it that way instead of thinking about all the royal stuff. It's easier, it's what he wants, and he's pretty sure it's what Jyn wants too.

"Dr. Erso," he says, shaking his hand and offering a polite but easy smile. It's easier than Galen right off the bat, and he refuses to use formalities when it comes to titles, at least as long as it won't get Jyn in trouble. Dr. Erso it is! "It is good to finally meet you too. Jyn has always sounded very fond of you, but she is half wrong. I am more of a teaching assistant while I finish up school."
