You're going to have to do more than asking nicely for that bit of information.

[they're back to that.

Cassian still doesn't know what to trade and won't make an offer open-ended.]

what options would you suggest

That depends on what you're willing to offer,
especially since we both know I'm the only one who can tell you what happened.

i'm willing to trade but not on this footing
give me some idea what you want or need and i'll see what i can do
not going to draw a border for you to chart my course right up against it

If it reassures you, I wouldn't ask you to give up Jyn Erso. Or deactivate your droid, since I can already do that myself.

So I'll have to think of what you can offer, especially since I know how much you want this information.

[On the far side of the comm screen, eyebrows have cleared the ionosphere.

If ever he starts to fall into the trap of thinking he and Hux could think remotely alike…

Cassian had been thinking I'm not going to hurt or kill anyone for you.

Hux… was thinking things that hadn't even occurred to Cassian because Jyn and Kay weren't his to "give up" (whatever the fucking goddamn parentless hell that could mean) even if he would.

But all other beings were just commodities to Imperials, weren't they.

Cassian…

…closes the channel in disgust.

Though if/when Hux sends a message outlining parameters… Cassian hasn't preemptively said there's no dealing.

Never deal with the Empire. They don't deal fairly with you.

But Hux, for all he wants to be and mistakes himself for it, is not the Empire.

Try me, mudcrutch.]
