[ jyn can brush off everything -- but this one is tough. this is too much like jedha, like scarif; the impossibly loud rumble, the feeling like the ground is shaking apart beneath her, the rush to flee. this is the second time in as many months the reminder of scarif has sucked the air out of her lungs and set her nerves alight. ]
[No. That's not the reassurance she's looking for, but it puts Clarke into Planning Mode. She has a lot on her plate (with more coming), but—]
Do you have a way out? Somewhere to take shelter?
[The problem with Earth Skills was that it never really prepared them for an earthquake. They always knew they'd land in the eastern part of the United States.]
[ it had taken her too long from when catra said earthquake to actually recognize the word as what had happened the years prior and in cassian's dream but it clicked quickly enough. ]
Too coincidental that it happened while we were here
[ bad, it's real bad. she can't control an entire ocean, she can't control an island of rock. jyn has absolutely no idea what to do at this moment because all she can think about is the roar of the wave on scarif. ]
[ clarke may have not meant so literally, but even so jyn sends her a picture of the ocean surrounding the island, visible even from the higher inland ground she and catra managed to herd some people. grey and frothy with white caps and listlessly shifting ice floes it nonetheless looks beautiful. ]
You're going to have to have that confidence for the both of us.
[ if jyn was with cassian or clarke or marcos this might be easier, but she's alone and daisy and illya are gone so she was already fragile; now the idea of this almost inescapable danger is eating away at her. ]
[ jyn's heart deflates in her chest, thinking of having to add daisy to a long line of people that have left. clarke will understand, but jyn doesn't give voice to that sorrow, shoving it down deep with the rest of them. ]

[ too much water, jyn isn't waiting for the wave. catra would lose her shit, anyway. ]
no subject
You're not alone.
Where is everyone?
no subject
I don't
We can't go back on the water.

[Because after staring at this for a long time, this is what she comes to.
She can't help, and it's killing her.]

Do you think this has anything to do with Cassian's earthquake?

[They had before, hadn't they? Cities ruined.]
It's not looking good from here, Jyn. It's bad.

Keep her talking. That's all that makes sense right now.]
What are you looking at?

If the water starts to recede a wave is coming.
no subject
What are the odds of that? Does it look like it?
no subject
[ jyn has nothing so fancy as the force to back up her feeling, instead it is based solely on a lifetime of bad luck. ]

Well, keep it up.
