“I’m joining the Resistance. With or without your approval.”
In that moment, the life Jyn and Cassian carved out for themselves—this life of after, of almost dying so many times for each other, of slowly shaking the fear and violence off for peace and, oh, so much love, of family and friends and a community that was their own—it shatters.
Over thirty years after the Galactic Civil War, Cassian and Jyn are confronted with the possibility of another war that could impact them, the next generation, and the shape of the galaxy to come.
Hello! It’s me, your secret santa! I hope you enjoy this gift. Your prompt was perfect, as I’ve mentioned. I wanted a chance to think about what Jyn and Cassian’s future would look like in the context of TFA and TLJ, and this piece finally gave me the opportunity to do so. It’s also…stupidly long, because I apparently have no self-control. It was great to talk to you these last few weeks, and I hope this is a cherry on top to a happy holiday season!
