[f...riends. they're friends! they've been friends! but he doesn't like how it sounds alone anymore.]

[but also it's very strange that she hadn't known how old he was before, though he supposes it never exactly came up.]

You are going to steal my own birthday cake?

They do. It's weird you did not know before. That means you will be twenty-three in a few months too then, I suppose.

[realists]

The week before we'll have been here a year.

[evasives]

I know.

We are getting older.

[which like, what.]

[realists]

Even though we're dead.

[evasives]

We aren't here.

[realists]

What if we leave? Like Jim's partner.

[evasives]

Then we leave together.

But given the choice, I would rather stay here.

[realists]

What else do you know about me?

[evasives]

I know some of your aliases. I know there is a list of criminal warrants for these various aliases. I knew you were born on Vallt.

I know you stole my gun on Yavin. I know you like animals and plants.

[realists]

I found it.

What aliases?

[evasives]

In my things.

Liana Hallik. Kestrel Dawn. Tanith Ponta. Nari McVeee. Lyra Rallik.

[realists]

[ still found it ]

They kept good notes.

Tanith was real. She died before I ever met her but she was a real person.

[evasives]

That's what intelligence does.

Can I ask who she was?

[realists]

Yes.

But later. I'll tell you about the Pontas later.

[evasives]

[ oh no his jyn is sad senses are tingling :( ]

Whenever you want to, Jyn. Whenever you're ready.

[realists]

You'll have to think of a different time frame because that may be never.

[ lmao talking about grief? yeah, no, she will not be ready for that. gross, disgusting. she refuses to even allow herself to feel it. ]

[evasives]

I don't want to force it out of you.

I just want to know more about you, too.

[realists]

You wouldn't force it and I know that.

[evasives]

Then I'll ask again, another time.

[realists]

Deal.

I'm technically a Valltii citizen.

[ going back to what he knows about her already. ]

Maybe that is what I should say when people ask me where I am from.

[evasives]

It would get you out of further questioning about where you are from. Vallt. Ice planet. End of story.

[realists]

Tambolor.

That was the prison.

[ achievement unlocked: origin story ]

Not something I will tell other people.

[evasives]

[every piece of herself that she shares with him feels precious, even if it's fragments of something he'd already known. but it's different hearing it from her versus reading it in a file.]

The secret is safe. I am very good at keeping them.

[realists]

I can imagine.

I guess I can always blame my parents for winding up in prison eventually. They didn't set a good example.

[evasives]

In their defense, I am sure they were not expecting a Separatist takeover of the planet.
