You make a compelling argument. And I guess I do kind of like it when you finally notice and do that double take thing that you do. You know, when your eyes go all wide like you can't quite believe what you're seeing?
[It's not as though Jyn is exactly going to tell anyone else should that surprise also include a little bit of appreciation ... or just a touch of forgetfulness, too.]
Oh? I guess I kind of like being a little bit of a distraction from time to time, too. You need it.
I do try to be as accommodating as possible, Captain.
Although I'm certain that you could probably convince me of anything should you put your mind to it, I feel like I should let you know that I'm not above being bribed, either.
[And he probably enjoyed knowing that even the merest suggestion of whisking their cactus daughter away absolutely tore a horrified gasp from her lips, too.
Horrible man.
He was ridiculously lucky that he was stuck with her regardless.]
That's not a bribe, that's a threat. How dare you.
Bribe. Threat. If the results are the same, is there truly a difference?
[ He would never actually kidnap their cactus daughter, but... Making Jyn squirm is fun. And if she's going to take revenge on him for this threat, all the better. ]

[ Absolutely not very appreciative surprise, or suddenly forgetting everything about the mission report he had been reading a moment ago. ]
I like how pleased with yourself you look when I notice.

[ Oh no, she wouldn't, these delightful little secrets are all their own. But it's still fun to tease Jyn. ]
You're very good at providing distractions. Too good. Or maybe just the right amount of distracting, especially when you're wearing very little.

[It was nice, on occasion, to have some time to spend just enjoying each other. Being able to tease was a bonus.
Thank you. I take great pleasure every time I manage to steal you away from everything for a little while all to myself.
I shall take it under consideration - the fact that you seem to like me in as little as possible.

Maybe I'll have to think of arguments to convince you. I'm not above bribery.

Should the reward be right, of course.

[ Although she can't see it, he chuckles at the comlink. ]
You wouldn't want me to resort to holding our daughter hostage.
[ But he wouldn't be above cactus-napping either. Maybe. ]

[Sometimes, Jyn thinks that she can hear it, though, even when they're parted.]
... You wouldn't!
[Yes, she is as stricken as she sounds.]

...or hear her stricken voice as he reads the message. It has him chuckling again. ]
But I would. You know me, I'm ruthless, and she trusts me.
