[the elevator keeps creeping up, but cassian is only dimly aware of it. he hasn't completely tuned it out, but it's not his focus. jyn is his focus, and she's taking over all his senses. she always did tear apart his defenses straight from day one, of course it's no different now. he just wants to be close to her, nothing else seems to matter.]
[they could have been friends forever, and he would have been fine with that. jyn is his family. he'd told her welcome home, and part of that was for himself too. but this is... better.]

[they seem to be good at breaking through all those negative odds. his smile widens and he probably has too much of his weight against her, keeping her pressed to the glass, but he's not sure he can stand upright, and not just because of his aching back. it's dizzying, how much he wants to get lost in her.]
