[maybe dark had, ostensibly, come to her rescue originally, but jyn shifts her feet now, positioning herself somewhat between the two men; no matter what he tries, john will have to go through her.
and, oh, he's trying. he's opened his stupid mouth to all his usual bantha shit — and for fuck's sake, does he ever get tired of listening to himself talk? it would be so easy to go for her blaster in the holster on her hip and silence him for a long time. a part of her is tempted.
but she, unlike him, doesn't go around killing people like this. (an excellent reason; that's bantha shit, too.) no, she'll keep her hands right where they are, crossing her arms over her chest for emphasis — and she'll roll her eyes so visibly.
she'll say, quietly, sarcastically, while dark figures out his answer:]
Can't imagine why she'd hate you.
[someone else might've said i don't want you dead, but, frankly, jyn can't, because she, unlike some people she knows (john), isn't in the habit of telling lies just to try to manipulate people with what they want to hear; if things happened to turn out that way one day, that he were to be dead, somewhere, she wouldn't exactly pretend to be sad about it.]
