"She wakes up." She wakes up and interrupts and breaks them back into reality where Jyn has to leave again. Part of him wishes she'd stayed asleep, but then he feels bad about it.
Still, at least he seems vaguely amused by her immediate defense and attack on his guilt. She made it easier to remember he exists as a person outside a father. He'll always appreciate that.
Cassian squeezes her hand, then loosens his grip apologetically. "As you have eloquently pointed out several times, she is a baby." She won't... remember, if they fuck it up sooner rather than later. "Maybe eight years is the time we needed to make it work instead."
