Summary: In the aftermath of her rescue from Scarif, Jyn finds herself at the mercy of the rebellion bureaucracy. Unable to assimilate with Bodhi and feuding with Draven, she remains in limbo while Cassian recovers from his injuries. Surrounded by sentients, yet more isolated than ever, she struggles with her decision to join the rebellion.

The Alliance sends them landing codes, scandocs, and covers with barely four hours to spare and they spend the time desperately learning their new identities and quizzing each other. The time pressure makes Bodhi nervous. His stutter comes back and he keeps mixing up details.
“Almost.” Jyn shakes her head for the fourth time. “You were born on Rakata Prime. You were educated on Arkanis.”
“Then what did I do on B-Bespin?”
“That’s where we met.” Jyn takes a deep breath and tries to be patient. She tries to remember that this is unfamiliar to him. He never spent years on the run, shrugging off and picking up identities every other month. He never had to put on a mask, bet his life on an elaborate lie. “You’re from Rakata Prime, spent a few years at the academy on Arkanis, where you learned how to fly, then dropped out to take care of your family and did contract work for three years until you met me. On Bespin.“
Bodhi shakes out his ponytail in frustration. “How do you already know my own c-cover better than me?”
Jyn shrugs. “You just have to get the order of the planets right. The rest kind of falls into place.”
He snorts and scrolls through his file again. “You sound like a spook already.”
Her head snaps up. “No I don’t.”
