We must hold onto something, and that's what I choose to hold on to, especially on the days that it's hard to find anything good. It's well worth fighting for - you, and us, and that future.

I feel the same. We'll get there, you and I.

We will. I know we will.

Even if it takes years yet. I mean, realistically speaking, it will take years. But some things are worth the wait.

[made_of_stars]

I believe in you, and I trust in us.

Good thing, then, that we've got many of those in front of us yet. Good ones. Happy ones. And we'll get there, Cassian, no matter what it takes.

I guess we do. It still feels strange, you know. I used to try my hardest never to make any plans beyond the next mission. Not to get attached so I won't leave anyone behind to mourn.

And now...

[made_of_stars]

I know.

Keeping to myself was easier than the thought of leaving someone behind. Not coming back is still a very real possibility, I know that, but I want to believe that there's something for us beyond all of this.

I'm scared. I'm really scared. But I'm holding onto that hope anyway.

[captain_by_the_book]

I'm scared, too. But it's a little easier knowing it's a shared fear now.

You're allowed. You don't have to be strong all the time. I'll hold you up when you need it.
