I would hope it is mostly done in jest. [ or friendly, playful sort of hitting, like the way jyn smacks her hand into his shoulder. ]
But if you need classes in self defense, I am sure it would not be hard to find a teacher. [ because he's trying to keep things light! he can't dive into the psyche of marcos and being hit. ]
[ is that what it's like to have a lot of friends?? lots of punching?? jyn is his friend and she idly hits him a lot, so now cassian is honestly considering this. internally, of course. ]
[ regardless, marcos seems to have come down from his panic attack significantly. ]
I'd rather not. [ while marcos knows how to fight, it's not something he likes doing. if he were back home, he'd use his power but here, he can't really do that. not in any kind of skilled manner.
he takes a breath and looks down, a little shy about what he'd just let cassian see. ]
Thanks for, uh, thanks for the help. Sorry to have derailed your day.
[ cassian doesn't brush it off, but he does adopt a more casual kind of slouch. there's no reason for marcos to be embarrassed, but cassian knows he would probably feel similarly if it were reversed. it's why he tries to keep all his own panic attacks to his bedroom. or the bathroom, if he doesn't want jyn to see and she's home. ]
You did not. [ he waves idly upward. ] You should come up for a few minutes. Have a drink, or eat something. [ also maybe he just wants to make sure marcos is fully over it and not liable to trigger it all over again by stepping outside again so soon. he was probably coming over anyway, if he was this close to the apartment building. ]
I don't want to put you out anymore than I already have.
[ and yes, he knows cassian invited him up and he knows that jyn wouldn't mind if she were there especially considering the circumstances but he still feels like he's putting people out by making them deal with him after these episodes. ]
I'm really all right. [ he thinks. ] I feel better.
[ listen. a laugh is definitely a good sign! mission seemingly accomplished. ]
[ he shrugs, but it's too carefully casual, slow-mo like he is completely innocent in wanting to purposely annoy jyn. besides, he thinks she'll understand when he tells her why. ]
It does not have to be long. Just enough for a churro.

[ he knows he could rub people the wrong way sometimes. ]
I'm used to it at this point.

[ he shrugs. ]
I'm exaggerating a bit but it's happened. We're still friends.

[ it's the little pause between the i'm all right and i feel better that makes cassian doubt both reassurances. ]
Jyn just got a bunch of churros. [ gotta lure him in. ] Imagine how annoyed Miss Erso will be if you eat some before she gets to.
no subject
You're trying to lure me in with the prospect of pissing Jyn off.
[ a good tactic. ]
Maybe...maybe for a few minutes. I won't stay long.

All right, just for a minute.

A minute is all you need for it.
[ and off they go, up the elevator to his fancy house to steal some of jyn's cheap but delicious churros. ]
