Despite his show of over-confidence, this wasn't exactly Krennic's scene - at least, not anymore. Even before, in the Empire, he'd never been a fan of attending such functions. For him, it had been more about rubbing elbows with superiors, with the competition - just more steps to finally getting his in into the Emperor's private circle. It had been an annoyance, really - so this, being little more than an escort to Jyn Erso was not at all turning out to be a good time. Perhaps it would have been better if she hadn't almost immediately taken off from his side, turning out to be the trouble he knew she would be.

It didn't take long to find her, there in the corner, and when he did... he sighed. She looked the part - he was still taken aback by how good she looked in that dress, even if it wasn't exactly her - it still painted a pretty picture. But even more, it was the woman inside the dress, the one he knew was actually quite fierce. She could handle all this.

"Enjoying the party, are we?" he drawled dryly as he came to stand beside her, looking much different himself in his fancier suit, his hair slicked back but still curling around his ears a little.
