["Still in recovery, Miss Tomaz. Their injuries were extensive, but they should start coming around soon."]
Good. We were cutting it a little close so things were touch and go.
[Zari has a tablet in her hand as she perches on a chair nearby the two cots, quietly browsing through the communication feeds while she waited. Using the jumpship to slip on to Skariff and pull out what was left of Rogue One hadn't been a decision sanctioned by the rebellion, but the Legends also weren't sanctioned by the rebellion, so it didn't really matter to them. All they knew was that they were close enough to make a difference so they took the chance.
Firestorm wound up taking the brunt of the blast, absorbing whatever energy they could while Jyn and Cassian were loaded onto the jump ship, and after that, they flew out to where the Waverider was waiting as quickly as they could.
Now, all that's left was to wait for them to wake up. However long that happens to take.]
[ jyn wakes up with a jerk and an aborted shout, feeling like her throat is on fire. everything hurts for a moment before she realizes it's not truly pain she is feeling. her body is sore and exhausted, but the pain is minimal. which is
strange.
the death star... scarif... she'd had too many injuries to be only sore. she'd had too many injuries to be alive. ]
What...
[ her eyes open, squinting against the light and groaning, trying to bury her face back in the small pillow. she breathes heavily through the actual pain of the bright light on her sensitive eyes. ]
[ as the light dim, jyn's eyes squint open again, finding the fuzzy form of zari tomaz before she turns her head to look for cassian. oh, he's right there. okay. her body relaxes for a moment. ]
The rest..?
[ bodhi and baze and chirrut and melshi and tonc... ]
[Not a time ship, like in canon, but it's flown by a crazy pilot so they were able to swoop in and just barely outrun the Death Star blast. But unfortunately Jyn and Cassian were the only ones they could save.]
And I'm sorry, but you were the only two we could get to in time.
[ her eyes close, slumping back in defeat. poor bodhi... he'd done so much, lost so much, only to-- her eyes squeeze shut, pressing away the tears that threaten to fall. she doesn't have time for this weakness, she needs to shut it down. ]
We got them. Leia's transporting them back to base now. You succeeded.
[She doesn't know yet, about Leia getting captured, or what's to come with a boy from Tattoine, but that wasn't their objective. Their objective was to get as many of Rogue One out as they could, and unfortunately, that number was two.
Zari would have greatly preferred more but she also is well aware that two is far better than expected.]

[She puts herself in Jyn's line of sight. "Shall I turn down the lights, Miss Tomaz?"]
Yes, please, Gideon.
[Then she turns back to Jyn.]
My name is Zari Tomaz. You're on the Waverider.
