Reciprocal touch still summons up the urge to scan their surroundings for threats, but Bodhi's as safe, in this room, as he's ever been anywhere. He breathes against the fear and watches Cassian's face, stunned and a little alarmed at how much he's letting slip: irritation, fear, but also familiarity. He seems used to this, sitting with Bodhi and spilling all over his hands.
"You remember m-me, snoring?" They haven't shared quarters on an extended mission for a little over two standard weeks, and they've been on this particular moon for about three times as long. That's a lot of missing time. Bodhi squeezes Cassian's hand and searches his eyes for any of the drifting he sees in the mirror after a bad spell. What does brain damage look like from the outside?
"I, uh. I haven't kn-known what to e-e-ex--what's going to happen since...since Jedha," his mouth twitches, a weak smile. "But, um, I think I've got, ah, may-maybe two more shifts to strai--to fix the comm array. And I ex-expect you're going to, to spend that time going through reports and, and, and running interference on Draven and Jyn. And then? I don't know. A new...a new mission."
