Jyn, aggressive? There's no way.

( there is absolutely a way. he snickers. )

Has she thrown the racket at you yet?

[evasives]

I know, it is hard to believe.

[ he loves his aggressive wife. ]

Yet? I think it is more a matter of how many times. Fortunately I know how to dodge very well. She likes to haul it at the wall as well, I think the bounce back is satisfying.

[heliophilous]

How many tennis rackets has she wrecked?

( but more importantly... )

Do you think she'd believe it if I just happened to wander out during one of these tennis matches to watch?

[evasives]

She has only broken the one.

[ the rest have sustained heavy damages, but they still function! ]

Not in the slightest, but she cannot do anything but he suspicious if you deny prior knowledge. You can always challenge her yourself too.

[heliophilous]

I've never played tennis in my life. It's not exactly a favorite sport in Colombia.

( people played it but not a lot. )

I think I'd be even worse than she is. Or anyone is.

[evasives]

We had not played before New Amsterdam. Tennis is even newer to us in concept than you.

[ does tennis exist in space? who knows! for the purpose of this exchange, it does not. ]

No, no, she is not bad at it. But you know it is easy to rile her up.

[heliophilous]

Well, I'm terrible at it but I still want to play her.

( and see how quickly he could tick her off. he hadn't done that to jyn in awhile. )

I bet I could make it happen in less than half an hour. I think I have that in me these days.

[evasives]

Try not to make it too easy for her.

[ you know she loves a competition. ]

That long? [ he has mastered the skill. five minutes, tops, if he really sets his mind to it. ]

[heliophilous]

Well, I could probably shorten that but I think it would be obvious if I did.

( or maybe not. maybe he will try and see how quickly he can do it. )

Maybe ten minutes is a better guess.

[evasives]

Make sure you set a timer. You could start keeping records for yourself.

[ has cassian done this?? no. not entirely. but he does remember the more quicker accomplishments on his own part. ]

[heliophilous]

A good plan.

( somewhere, he's sure jyn is frowning and she doesn't know why. )

I'll see how quick it takes to beat my various records.

[evasives]

Just do not be surprised if she tries to turn the tables at some point too.

[ as soon as jyn realizes what marcos is up to, she'll become ten times as purposefully bothersome. it's the jyn erso way. ]

[heliophilous]

Oh, I fully expect it. I'll be prepared. I can run pretty fast.

( and he knew how to hide well too. )

[evasives]

Just let me know when this goes down, so I can watch.

[ he lifts his glass up, in a cheer. ]

[heliophilous]

You got it.

( marcos nods before lifting his own glass.

sorry not sorry, jyn. )
