[There was a joke to be made there, but Jyn wasn't going to be the one to make it. On the flip side, she would also never ask for any special favors - even though they'd already been given one in being assigned to the same mission. Still, that was probably due to the fact that neither of them were scheduled for anything more important, and the duty did need to be done.]
You have never complained, and that's part of the reason that you're so good for me. Don't worry - it's all just between us, I promise.
[It was amazing how two people who had lost it all had managed to find each other in the midst of such chaos. Not only that, but they'd both found little cobbled together families, and Jyn was adamant upon never letting any of them go.]
I read you loud and clear. I will be ready to depart when the time comes - and may I just say that I look forward to undertaking this mission with you.
[And ... looking forward to other things entirely, but he knew that already. Of course there was a job to be done - there was always something that needed to be done - but they also needed to reaffirm what they felt.
She never expected any of this, and maybe she'd never understand why it had taken losing everything she'd ever known to find it, but Jyn was as content as she could be given the circumstances that she'd found exactly where she belonged.
Darling, if I'm rubbing off you, I'm clearly doing something wrong! ;)
[There, the joke has been done, and Kanan will keep to the version that it's all Jyn's fault for his kinked set of mind. All he can think now is the sight of her naked on the TIE pilot's seat while he kneels between her thighs...
Oh, how it'll break his heart to destroy that TIE fighter afterward!]
Excellent! I think we should meet up as soon as possible to discuss the...finer details of this mission. And maybe do the milk run before anything else. Just in case we get side-tracked for too long, yes?
[Maybe meeting ahead of time to 'plan' this might be good too. That way, Kanan won't be too distracted. Maybe.
The Force works in mysterious ways, but there are times where Kanan is convinced they were meant to come across each other, so they can save each other, so to speak.
Kanan can't help himself and grins like an idiot again:]
I was thinking more about keeping each other on our backs, but toes can work too!
[What can he say? He really, really needs to see Jyn. Soon.]
I don't know - I'd say you're doing everything just right.
[She snorts softly and rolls her eyes in the fondest way possible. If that's her cross to bear - being the one to corrupt his innocence so thoroughly, she'll accept the blame.
Her mental images are deliciously naughty, in all the best ways. Yeah, it'll be a shame to destroy the fighter when all is said and done. At least they'll have the memories?]
Absolutely. There's no such thing as being too prepared, after all. We should go over our plans until we've memorized them. We should go over them until we're satisfied.
[Oh, they'll get distracted - it's an inevitability. But Jyn knows that they'd both never allow it to occur unless the coast was completely clear and the actual assignment was well and truly taken care of.
Afterwards, though, was another story altogether.
Jyn doesn't know what she's done to deserve any little bit of happiness, but she tries not to overthink the hows and the whys, no matter how easily she could.
Despite all odds, they've found each other. Despite all odds, she'll do anything to keep him. And stars forbid anything gets in the way.]
We can do that, too, as much as you'd like. I'd hardly complain about it, you know!]

And exactly who she belonged with.]
No? We'd keep each other on our toes, I think.
