"Don't even say it. She'll hear you somehow." Rey is a very sleepy baby, it's just not always consistent, and Cassian does not want to imagine a world where her sleep schedule shifts, or where it lessens.
Jyn's head slips onto his shoulder, and he almost repeats the earlier urge to kiss her hair, but she's too awake this time. Instead he just finds himself relaxing with her so content beside him. It doesn't feel fake or forced, which is the nicest part of it. He's smiling by the time the film starts up, not quite paying attention to it yet, because he's trying to memorize the feeling here with her. Happy, while their daughter sleeps peacefully in the next room, and it's a strangeness he doesn't think he'd mind sticking around.
