[ she looks at the man askance again before deciding to come right out with it. ]

You look like someone I know.

[ is that the topic at hand? no. does this seem to bother jyn? also no. ]

[enfoldings]

Must be a handsome guy. [ He doesn't even skip a beat, though he does look down at the girl who looks far more interested in getting Jyn's attention than teaching him how to properly throw petals into the river. Alex wings it instead, amused. ]

Anyone tell you you're blunt? [ So's he at times, so, hey. There's no rude tone to his voice, either - he's just trying to figure the girl out. ]

[realists]

No. [ a beat, her attention turning back to the little girl when she feels a tug on her pants. instead of dropping a clump of flowers this time, jyn drops a single petal, on the girl's head. the serious countenance finally break and jyn is rewarded by a smile full of missing baby teeth as she shakes her head to let the petal fall to the ground. ]

I have been called abrupt to the point of grossly discourteous however. [ so yeah, she's been called blunt before. ] He's not my type.

[ which she also said directly to jim's face. ]

[ Definitely, definitely blunt. When Alex laughs, he hopes the other doesn't take it the wrong way.

He wasn't expected to be reminded of Meg, but here he is, feeling a pang of guilt in his abdomen. It ripples through to his chest, and his jaw clenches a little to counteract that. ]

You're missing out on a handsome fellow. [ He, of course, is happily married and has the ring to prove it. He extends the hand, head tilted to the side. ]

Alex Murry. Brand new.

[realists]

Jyn Erso. [ not new, but not saying. she only shakes his hand briefly before taking her hand back. one day she will ask why so many people insist on that. ]

Missing out on nothing.

[ she is the reason obstinate became a word. ]
