"Not exactly my strong suit," Jyn points out with a shrug, though one corner of her mouth curls up just a little. "But maybe." For all that it may not be her forte, it would still be better than speaking to him face to face, trying to say what she needs to and only feeling guilty and too emotional for it. Given how much trouble she had saying anything at all when he first arrived, she doubts she'd be able to get much out anyway. Chances are, she would just freeze again, everything kept painstakingly contained to avoid getting too emotional, and that wouldn't get her anywhere. If they're going to have any kind of relationship at all, she has to be able to talk to him, but trying to lead with this doesn't seem like the best way to do so.

Considering that, she pauses for a moment. "At least I could try to figure out what to say, instead of being on the spot." She'd be able to rewrite it as many times as needed, to get Cassian and Lincoln to look over it first, to get some distance that she still sort of hates herself for thinking she needs. It makes her feel like a coward that she can't just face this head-on, but she's spent so long burying any feelings pertaining to her father that anything else probably just isn't possible. An emotional conversation is far more frightening to her even than any battle. "Have... some time with it for myself."
