I wish one day was not so far away

[evasives]

If you keep following all the rules it will come sooner rather than later.

[realists]

I've been trying!

[ not to the letter though because she is tired ]

[evasives]

I know. I am saying keep it up.

[realists]

Yeah well

You of all people know I suck at the follow through

[evasives]

You are not doing bad with this.

[realists]

I'll take your word for it. Can I have the dog back?

[evasives]

She is currently begging for scraps. Not sure I can break her away from that.

[realists]

Betrayed

[evasives]

She will live. It's too spicy for her tonight.

[realists]

Zapata! Come to Mama!

[ the dog ignores her, wagging her tail at cassian. ]

She isn't coming, is she?

[evasives]

Her ears perked very briefly. But she has one thing on her mind.

[realists]

It's okay, I can cheat.

[ she shakes a container of cheese balls which sounds exactly like zapata's treat container. ]

Come'ere mija!

[evasives]

[ the poor dog is torn between the sound of her treats and the delicious smells right in front of her. she prances around, peering into the doorway to look at jyn. ]

The actual treats are out here, I will just lure her back.

[realists]

[ whispered to the dog: ] Come here, baby girl.

[ maybe it is that jyn is still sad on the floor or the hope for treats, but the happy puppy finally trots inside and sits by jyn's hand for pets. of which she is rewarded with many many many pets and whispered sweet nothings. zapata is a good girl, she is the best girl. ]

It's a pity dogs can't purr.

[evasives]

[ you know what, jyn could use the cuddles, and cassian could use the space to cook, so maybe he will not lure his dog back just yet. ]

The speedy tail wag will have to substitute. She is whiny enough as it is, imagine if she could purr too.

[realists]

I would like it. Rumbly space heater.

[evasives]

Loud space heater.

[realists]

You snore and that never bothered me

[evasives]

Not always! [ just when he is very deeply and comfortably asleep. ]

Zapata would be louder.

[realists]

You're so loud when you're drunk

[ loudly: ]

It's cute!

[evasives]

That is different.

[ first she says she still wants to fuck him and now she says he is cute and he doesn't know how to REACT to any of this!! ]

[ so maybe he won't?? except send an emoji back. ]

😴

[realists]

Did I ever show you that video where you were so loud you woke yourself up?

[evasives]

Like three times. You were mad I was not hungover each time.
