You haven't told me shit, I followed context clues.

[kleptocratic]

Marrying the queen makes you the king. I didn't really think it out.

[realists]

You said the Queen of Attolia married some Eddisian royalty to end the war. Did you forget to mention it was you?

[kleptocratic]

No, I just didn't want to.

[realists]

Why?

[kleptocratic]

What does it matter that I'm king of some country that isn't on any maps that no one has ever heard of?

[realists]

Poor logic considering you told me about that country.

[kleptocratic]

And the war. I left some things out of that, too. People always do when they talk about war.

[realists]

[ jyn decides to let it go because in the long run it isn't about her. it's his life, he can share it with who he pleases. ]

I'm not going to treat you like royalty. Or her.

[kleptocratic]

Good. I hate being treated like royalty.

[ And that is the biggest reason he has mostly kept it secret. ]

[realists]

Good.

50 credits. I had to buy a necklace to hide the knife.

[kleptocratic]

Oh, she wanted a hidden knife.

[ Of course she did. ]

[realists]

No, that was my contribution. We've seen what happens when displaced get arrested. I'd like to avoid that again if possible.

[ weapons are illegal therefore they must be hidden. ]

[kleptocratic]

She likes hidden knives.

[ He'll pay for that. ]

[realists]

We have that in common.

[kleptocratic]

As far as weapons go, they are remarkably versatile.

[ And easier for him to wrap his head around than all the fancy gun stuff. ]

[realists]

I prefer my truncheons. Less blood, less laundry.

[ she is not fancy, she's only ever had, maybe, two pairs of trousers at a time. now, truly decadent, she has three pairs. ]

[kleptocratic]

Can you throw them?

[realists]

You can throw anything.

[kleptocratic]

Spoken like someone with two hands.

[realists]

If you need two hands to throw, you have a problem.

You would like truncheons, the grip makes it an extension of your arm.

[ which is gr8 when you have long arms, lots of reach. jyn is a small mouse, she does not have the reach. ]

[kleptocratic]

Only some things.

Maybe you could show me.

[realists]

I happen to have a spare.

[ it's pretty great to live with the weapons queen of new amsterdam tbh. ]

[kleptocratic]

Are you going to charge me 500 credits?

[realists]

For you it's free.
