Jyn would have rankled if she would have believed for one moment that this was exactly what it looked like - a pissing contest between two men and the woman they thought couldn't take care of herself.
But she felt as though with Joreth, at least, it was an attempt to keep her shielded from the older man's attention. For once, it felt good that she didn't have to try to do it herself - or, rather, put up with them just by virtue of who he was.
Krennic's expression might have seemed pleasant, but Jyn knew him well enough to know that the gesture had perturbed him profusely. Still, he genially returned the shake and a nod. "Lieutenant. Admiral Grendreef speaks very highly of you. He would have to - we want only the best for our Jyn, you know."
