She could have confiscated it, certainly. He was a stranger, after all, and no matter how injured, she couldn't begin to tell what his intention might have been. But she didn't get the feeling that he was going to do anything desperate, and so, here it sat, a precaution in case someone else did happen upon him.

She had meant it, after all, when she had warned that if anyone else discovered him, they wouldn't be as helpful or understanding as she'd been.

Jyn shook her head slightly, as if to warn against thanking her just yet. She hardly knew if he'd be able to get out of here at all, and didn't yet feel as if she'd done anything deserving of the thanks.

"We'll talk about it then", she eventually replied, her lips turning up just slightly into the hint of a smile. "For now, you need to get some rest."

After the trauma of the day, Jyn wasn't surprised that the adrenaline had finally faded. The only thing she felt any regret about was that she wasn't going to be able to stay and keep watch while he rested - and with a concussion to deal with, going the night alone was a dangerous prospect.

There was conflict in her eyes and her furrowed brow as she nodded curtly - not because she was trying to dismiss him or his thanks, but because she almost couldn't stand the thought of being wasted in the end.

"Rest well. I'll try and check on you again soon."

With little else to be done tonight - and even fewer supplies with which to do anything, there was no real reason for Jyn to linger. Still, it took her a moment to grab her bag and stand, slinging it over her shoulder. She would have to be careful if she wanted to make it to her quarters unseen, but she was a woman determined.

"I certainly hope so."

With that - a nod, and she took her leave, however difficult she find it to do so. She didn't even know him, but still, she found herself worrying nonetheless.

Jyn slept fitfully before she woke early, certain that even if she tried, she could no longer get any sleep. There was no real reason to believe that anyone would stumble upon Gabrael in one of the lesser-used warehouses, but just in case, she would have to remember to take her datapad with her when she was able to check on him again, just so that she could slice into the controls in order to change the passcode into something only she knew.

The sun began to rise, and she got up, too, in order to prepare for her day. The next time she would probably be able to see him would be after her shift, and with what little she had brought for him the night before, all she could do was hope that there was enough to get by -

And that when she returned, he wouldn't have succumbed to his injuries.

Jyn set about her usual duties - albeit a bit distractedly, not that anyone would really notice. Her duties here at Carbon Ridge couldn't be called important more than they were soul-crushingly repetitive.

But then, wasn't that was why she was here, after all, to learn how to follow directions and do her job efficiently, and all without asking questions or getting into trouble. Life here on this base was a lonely, boring thing, and Jyn hated every second.

Her shift ended, and she set out on mission to gather more supplies, and all without getting caught in the midst of it. If she didn't swipe things surreptitiously, like food, she either flirted (with no intention of actually following through) in order to pocket a bottle of unguarded painkillers, or talked her way into procuring an extra datapad from requistions because she'd 'lost' hers, and who was going to care if inventory was off by one, anyway?

It was nearing dusk when she returned, careful to ensure that no one was following before she keyed in the entrance code and stepped inside, just as careful to ensure she closed the door quickly. Neither of them could afford being caught now, and there was probably no doubt as to her role in this whole thing if someone were to discover them.

Better safe than sorry.

Jyn wouldn't care one way or the other if Gabrael was stealing whatever he could use. It didn't affect her directly, none of it belonged to her. And the ever more disillusioned part of her might even think 'good, stick it to them'.

The silence was unnerving, but understandable, and she slowly crept from the entrance to where his little nest had been set up, hoping that when she found him, she wouldn't find that the silence was going to be permanent.

"Gabrael? It's Jyn - ", she offered, her voice soft, but just enough to echo out into the room. "Are you here?"

Maybe he wasn't. Maybe he'd decided to make a go of it on his own in the middle of the night. She wouldn't blame him if he had - the odds probably seemed preferable than the danger inherent in staying here.

Jyn couldn't even begin to describe the wave of relief that washed over her as finally, he popped into sight, awake and alert and walking, even if it was with the aid of the rifle she'd left for him. She sighed softly and her shoulders dropped just a touch, and a small, brief smile lifted her lips at the edges. "There you are. I brought more things for you."

Jyn assumed that Gabrael had either gotten bored with lying down - and who could blame him, it was always her most hated part about being sick herself, or he wanted to explore his new surroundings. She could blame him for neither. The last thing she wanted was for him to feel as though he was in prison and she was his jailer.

She followed him back to the low cot, and after shucking her bag and setting at her feet, she sat down with a soft sigh, too. "I did make it back", she replied, her smile slowly widening. "And I brought some more things."

Rifling through the bag, the first thing she wanted to share was the little bottle of painkillers.

"How's your head today? Your back? Your leg can hold your weight better?"

"And more water to go with them", she continued, reaching for the old canteen before handing over the new. "More nutrient bars - ", she sighed, wrinkling her nose. Most of the other food I considered wouldn't have kept in my bag all day. Sorry about that."

Jyn watched Gabrael closely as he shared the details of his injuries, and for the most part it sounded as though things were getting a little better. Maybe with the exception of his head, but there wasn't much she could do for that.

"Well, I'm here, so obviously no one's found you. I did have use some feminine trickery of my own to get those pills, and - oh, I managed one more thing for you, as well."

With that, she reached into her bag and pulled out a datapad, an eyebrow raised slightly as she handed that over, as well. "Not mine, although I did manage to duplicate my frequency. If you're going to send any messages out, please encrypt them heavily - they're all monitored. We've made it through one day, I'm not keen on getting caught now. Yeah?"

From: [personal profile] made_of_stars
Nothing too untoward. Perhaps some flirtation that Jyn had no intention of acting on. She could say without a shadow of a doubt that there was no one at Carbon Ridge who she was the least bit interested in. Hard to be, when one was doubting everyone's intentions.

She didn't know Gabrael, that much was true enough, but for some reason, she didn't distrust him. He hadn't tried anything with her, after all, and he had had every opportunity after she'd given him his rifle.

Maybe she was going soft, but ...

Jyn should have been expecting the question, but it still caught her off guard, even though it didn't show in her expression. Still, it took a moment of thought - a long moment of thought before she was able to offer an answer.

Did she want to leave the only life she had ever known? What would she do if she did? Where would she go? Whatever it was had to be better than continuing to perpetuate what she was beginning to believe was ... decidedly not the good that the higher ups kept telling them that it was.

They had stolen her childhood after the tragic death of her mother, and as it stood, she had no relationship with her father, and what did she have to show for any of the work she had done? She was stuck on this dustball in the middle of nowhere because she had dared ask the wrong people the wrong questions ...

Jyn didn't know Gabrael. But in the moment, she decided that she had to take the risk. It had to be better than staying here forever.

"... Yes."

This could be a ruse, and if so, Jyn had just opened herself up to a galaxy of trouble.

But Gabrael was legitimately hurt - and it didn't make sense to grievously injure a man just to pull potential defectors out of the shadows. Still, Jyn wanted to believe that it was true, that his presence here might be the catalyst to her getting out.

She didn't know where she might potentially go or what she might potentially do, but her options were wide open. Still, for as hopeful as she wanted to feel, she couldn't let it get out of hand. Escaping wasn't guaranteed.

Only time would tell. And until then, she would have to put in more effort to keep him safe. "Well, at least now you have a way to try."

She nodded slightly, smiling in return, although it was small and fleeting. "Thank you. For trying."

"If you can route it to terminal G-77 between 0630 to 1200, that's my station. If you can't, then make the message as innocuous as possible so it doesn't raise any suspicions. Shift changes are staggered so that there's always someone monitoring. Your best bet is to go through me."

Jyn shrugged and then shook her head, unsure of how to respond. Truly, she didn't feel that she was doing anything out of the ordinary even though logically, she knew that she was. "Yeah", she murmured, "Me, too."
