Cassian found himself disappointed that he'd decided to play naïve. He found himself wanting to commiserate with his cellmate. Why? You just met, you have nothing to go on… But everything about her just… clicked. Except that he couldn't tell if… if it was his finely-honed sense of when someone might be a candidate for recruitment, or if his analytics were getting fouled up because she was… well… cute. That had never happened before, but he couldn't rule it out.
At least Cassian could use that to swallow and shoot an anxious look out the door. "Dammit. Dammit." He tore his eyes back to her. "You seem awfully calm about it."
