It's a difficult thing for Jyn to imagine, but charming somehow, the thought of someone holding out like that. Maybe it's just because, before Cassian, she hadn't been with anyone who was interested in more than one thing. Maybe it's because the two of them did things so completely backwards, and likely the only way they would ever have been able to. At least, based on what she heard last night, all those months don't seem to have gotten in their way at all.
"Must've been a good first time, then," she says, as close to teasing as she'll get with a stranger, as if she isn't already perfectly aware of that fact. "We were... sort of the opposite. Started sleeping together months before we figured out that we both wanted something more than that."
It is, again, far more that she would usually admit to someone she doesn't know, or, for that matter, someone she does know, but with what they've both overheard, it doesn't seem quite as personal as it otherwise might. "But I guess that explains why I hadn't heard all of that before."
