Chirrut feels her presence drawing closer long before he hears her scamble up to the roof of the ship. It is a tranquility, like lying back in a gentle ocean, that he'd first felt on Jedha.

"Jyn," he says fondly as she takes her place beside him. Inhaling, he captures a sharp, citrusy scent, "What do you have, there?"

"Tea? Bodhi spotted it when we were in the market place today. He said it was popular on Jedha. I thought…"

She trails off, flustered, and Chirrut's smile broadens. He takes the cup from her and feels her lean in as he takes his first sip. He's tempted to pretend it's terrible, just to rile her up. But there is something muddy in her aura, something on her mind, so he won't.

"It's wonderful, Jyn. Thank you. Now what's troubling you?"

"Nothing." she says quickly, and he waits until she's worked up the courage to be honest with him. "It's just… I heard you and Baze arguing earlier, before we left Yavin."

Ah, there it is. Chirrut presses his lips together and nods, admitting to it.

After a long silence, Jyn says, "I know it's not what he wanted, to stay on with the Rebellion. Kriff, I didn't think it was something I wanted until…" he can practically feel her flush, "Anyway, I just… I hope… oh, kriff."

She pulses with frustration beside him, and Chirrut understands. The three of them, Jyn, Bodhi, and the captain, were all so unfamiliar with family. Rogue One was so new, so precious too them, that they lived in constant fear, waiting for something to take it away.

He reaches out to rest his hand atop her knee, "Baze is alright, little sister. He is fighting his own battle, just as each of us are. He is trying to understand where his place is."

"I want it to be here, with us." Jyn says, almost shyly.

"I believe he does, too, he's just having trouble admitting that." he elbows her lightly, "I'm sure you of all people can sympathize."

She groans and lies back on the metal roof. Chirrut sips his tea, casting his face upward.

"Any stars, tonight?"

"Millions." Jyn says, and they sit in comfortable silence until the tea is finished.
