( ooc | apologies for the delay, I'm going to be on hiatus until next sunday but I'd love to continue this or something new then. )
It was human nature in a way, for her to refuse to spend any more time with the man who seemed so unsure of what he wanted with her. It was easy for her to turn to him for help, but every turn led to him insulting her line of work with a bitter array of emotions and jealousy he held over her. Her own affections were always in such a delicate limbo— wanting to be loved by him but refusing to accept it as she had her own affections with others elsewhere. She belonged to no one and only wanted to belong where she was genuinely wanted. So those emotions were placed into a box far into the back of her mind and while Cassian didn't need to know the complexities of her relationship with her Captain, she was sure it was in the air. Obvious by how close she was to him, yet close enough to run from him willingly.
"Yes and you could use the credits.", she said, softly lifting her own glass of wine, polishing off the red liquid. No favors, no debts— it was the only way she could retain control over her person, especially with men. Even if Cassian wasn't like that.
"How about it? Private lessons for a willing student and you can finally have a good meal once a day at least." Her voice is teasing of course, but in her own way she did want to help him.
