From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn didn't know if she had any real answers - she just knew that deep inside, she couldn't stomach the thought of turning over a possibly innocent person into the hands of people who wouldn't think twice about torturing him. She'd be complicit in it, and she didn't know if she could withstand the guilt.

And that was if she didn't get caught. If she did, she'd be right there with him, and maybe this wasn't an acceptable risk to take, but she had to attempt it just the same. What if he had family to return to? A sweetheart somewhere? Friends and colleagues that would always wonder why he hadn't come home?

She tried to be careful of potential injuries as she wrapped an arm around his middle for leverage, taking a step forward, hoping he could follow. "Come on. Walk. You can rest once we're inside."

It was slow going, and Jyn had to stop several times, afraid that he was going to keel over and take her with him, but eventually, they made it inside the building - one of the rarely used warehouses, and Jyn tried to figure out as quickly as she could where the best place was for him to rest.

In the furthermost corner, there was a small enough empty space to allow for a little bit of a hiding place, should anyone enter and look around. The empty pallet wouldn't exactly be comfortable, but she was already considering whether or not she could get her hands on some blankets, at least, anything that might help him rest a little more comfortably.

Right now, she just wanted to make sure that he wasn't going to die on her watch.

"I know this isn't ideal", she muttered, leading him to the disused corner, urging him to sit or lay, "But it's what we've got. Try to stay alive, alright? I'll be back when I can."

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Good question - and one that Jyn still didn't know the answer to. What could she possibly get out of disobeying orders? And why would she risk anything on a complete stranger?

"I don't know - ", she answered, completely honestly. "I just couldn't leave you out there to die."

Or leave the others to hasten his demise along, and probably in the most sadistic ways.

"I'm Jyn - Jyn Erso."

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn wasn't expecting much conversation and wasn't exactly surprised when she did not receive a name in reciprocation. Truly, she was impressed that he hadn't promptly passed out once she'd helped ease him down onto the pallet.

She couldn't even imagine the pain that he must have been in. And while she was no medic, Jyn was already making a mental list of all the supplies she would have to find a way to bring when she returned later, medkit included.

She watched as he slipped back into unconsciousness and sighed before informing the others that C-33 was also clear.

"Stand down and return to your posts. Looks like the desert probably got them."

All Jyn could hope for when she returned was to find that he hadn't died in the time she'd been away. "Just hold on, alright?", she murmured, even though she knew he couldn't hear.

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Hours later, once Jyn's work shift was done and over with and she had managed to procure as many supplies as she could without arousing suspicion, she took the long walk from the main buildings back to C-33, keeping to the shadows to keep from getting caught.

He was still there when she returned - not dead, but also not awake, his breathing labored and whatever noises he was making were more pained and less intelligible. She sat her pack down and soon followed, careful as she removed each item she had been able to liberate, taking stock and making plans for her next supply run.

She couldn't maneuver him in order to get a (too-thin) blanket underneath him, so for the moment, she contented herself with wetting a cloth and cooling his forehead, just in case he was feverish.

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn could have taken care of herself if need be, but she was glad that it hadn't had to come to that. She just paused in her ministrations, pulled her hand back, and waited until the panic had passed and he settled back onto the pallet, which she was sure wasn't helping the pain he was already in.

"Yes, I did", she replied, reaching for the canteen of water that she'd made sure to bring along. "Come on, I'm sure you're parched."

made_of_stars: (jyn - looking to the side)
From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn felt for him, she truly did. It seemed that no matter which way he moved, he was still in tremendous pain. She did her best to accommodate him with the canteen, but there was no stopping a little spillage from occurring.

"Can you tell me what happened?", she asked, glancing down at the supplies she had on hand, pondering her next action. "Do you remember what made you crash?"

She sighed, eventually brushing some stray hair out of her eyes, her expression not dour, just concerned. "You think we can get your shirt off? I won't know the extent of your injuries unless I can see for myself."

made_of_stars: (jyn - are you with me?)
From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
She had searched for him - and she had been the one to find him, too. Jyn still didn't have an answer as to why they were in their current situation, but for the moment, she still thought that he was in a much better position than he would have been had anyone else come across him first.

Jyn nodded her understanding of the explanation - as bare as it had been. Of course he wouldn't want to tell her the truth of the matter, knowing that she was one of the Imps that had shot him down, not knowing her, not trusting her, only allowing her to help because there was no other choice. "You're lucky you didn't crash in the desert. If the sun and sand hadn't gotten you, the more feral scavs would have."

She helped where she could, steadying him when he seemed wobbly, deft fingers making quick work of undoing and removing his shirt, and it was only when she was able to take in the full picture of the man in front of her that she understood - partly - what kind of hardships he had faced. She took a shaky breath and set to the task at hand of unwrapping the thermal bandage so she could then wind it around his chest, to try to keep those broken ribs in place.

"I can't do anything about your spine - ", she stated apologetically. "It's not like I can sneak you into medbay, and you're in no condition for that, anyway. But I'll do my best with what I've got."

For a time, after the bandage was secured and she set to working on cleaning the bloody scrapes and other contusions in silence, Jyn paused and raised her eyes, a little knot of concern knitting her eyebrows together. "Is anyone going to come looking for you?"
made_of_stars: (jyn - i'm watching you)
From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn was indeed one of them. But that was why she was here, after all, as a sort of punishment for beginning to question what they were doing. And no - she was so far down the totem pole that she had not been given any reason other than 'find the trespasser'.

There weren't many trespassers and Jyn was intelligent enough to know that he, most likely, had been looking for something in particular. Nobody just came across this base, and nobody just sought it out.

She worked in silence for a bit, grateful for how still he kept, even though she was sure the antiseptic burned, no matter how gently she attempted to do it. She wanted to finish as quickly as possible - if he was concussed, he'd need to get more rest ... and she wondered if she could manage a whole night spent away from her quarters. Wouldn't it be necessary to wake him periodically to make sure that he wasn't addled?

For the moment, he seemed to trust her not to do anything untoward, since he clearly wasn't in the best position to fend her off. Still, she tensed as he unexpectedly took her hand, her attention immediately shifting from the work at hand to meet his gaze and hopefully hint that she had no malice in mind for him. "No", she answered, her voice soft but steady. "Not unless you're planning on trying to hurt me."

<3!

She wasn't trying to placate him with the answer - it had been completely truthful. No, she had no plans to turn him ... but if he attempted to get violent with her, maybe there would be no other choice. But in his current condition, that didn't seem like much of a worry.

It was clear in the way her expression shifted and changed - first falling completely, and then almost being hidden completely behind high walls that had gone up immediately in the wake of her father's name leaving his lips.

Jyn's hands trembled minutely, but she tried to keep herself together as she tried to suss out how or why this perfect stranger would even know that. Maybe she should have given an alias instead. Maybe it would have been the safer option.

Oh, well. No turning back time now.

"I call him Papa, but yes. Who's asking?"

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Usually, when people asked about her father, they wanted something. Surely, it was understandable that Jyn felt a little ... wary when his name had popped up seemingly out of nowhere.

The explanation seemed plausible enough, though, and while the tension in her shoulders did not dissipate, her expression did soften, not completely, but enough to suggest that she believed him.

"Alright, Gabrael Willix - ", she answered, taking a moment to regroup before she returned to the task of cleaning his wounds thoroughly. The last thing either of them needed was an infection taking hold. "Almost done. I don't have much in the way of meds for you yet, but what I do have should help with any pain you're still feeling."

Date: 2019-07-07 02:44 pm (UTC)
made_of_stars: (jyn - looking back)
From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Jyn truly didn't find anything odd about Gabrael's reactions - he'd gone through an awful shock, after all, it made sense that the full realization of the crash hadn't quite manifested. He'd probably feel the pain much more when the morning came, and all the adrenaline (and what little pain meds she'd been able to bring) wore off.

She shook her head and then averted her eyes for a moment - a quiet one - before glancing back up, conflict more than clear in the furrowing of her brow, the set of her mouth. "Don't thank me yet. If anybody else finds you, I doubt they'll be quite as hospitable."
