Jyn didn't intend to linger. It would felt been unfair to, as things were, and again, she thought that something was going to have to give if they were going to effectively be roommates. Of course, there was every chance that it was just in her head, given the context that she had and he didn't. Were he anyone else, it wouldn't have fazed her in the slightest, changing clothes and otherwise existing in the same space. She had grown up a soldier, with little in the way of privacy; she would always take what she could get in that regard, but she wasn't prone to excessive modesty.

It was different with him, feeling about him the way she did, wondering how he felt about her, not wanting to seem at all presumptuous. Better just to keep some distance there and dodge any awkwardness. So, as quickly as she could, she grabbed clean sleep clothes and a fresh towel. Before heading to the lav, she did what she had initially asked him to leave the room for: she set on his bunk the pair of house shoes she'd bought earlier.

In the shower, she spent as little time as possible, scrubbing herself down under the hot water. She dried and dressed in the steam-filled room after, and emerged again in short order, wet hair hanging loose around her shoulders. "He's not giving you too much trouble, is he?" she asked with a crooked smile, taking a seat across the table from Cassian. "He doesn't really understand the idea of personal space."
