Were anyone else asking, except perhaps Cassian, a question like that would make Jyn shut down on the spot. Partly, it's just an old instinct, born of so long spent having to conceal her identity. More than that, though, the subject is tied to a vulnerability that she's never been comfortable expressing. It's always been easier just to close herself off, to feel only anger if she had to feel anything at all. Lincoln has gotten past so many of her defenses already, though. What's more, he's met Galen, odd as that still is to consider. If there's anyone she can be honest with, it's him.

"Mostly, yeah," she says, nodding. At least things at home have settled down, though there's a part of her that's still the slightest bit uneasy after what happened with Cassian in October, still waiting for something to go wrong. Maybe that would be easier to let go of if not for the twin blow of her father's arrival so soon after. "It's just... a lot."
