"Amazing how that works out, isn't it?", she asks, the surprise coloring her voice not at all dismayed. The circumstance that they're discussing clearly isn't ideal, and she isn't expecting anyone to understand, but he does, and that makes her feel, well - a little less alone. "The way that the more things change, the way they tend to stay the same."
Not being able to censor herself is disconcerting, to say the least, but there's no fighting it, so what she tries to concentrate on instead is being able to say things in a way that isn't quite so baldly honest. No luck thus far, but she's adamant upon continuing to try.
Of course, that train of thought derails completely when it registers that Derek is teasing her. "That's - ", she begins, and halts, cocking her head to the side before she remembers that she actually needs to follow him if she wants that drink, that chance to dry off a little, and to discover if she can keep her foot firmly out of her mouth once they're out of the rain. "I - wait, that's not what I mean! You would know if I were the least bit unhappy."
Jyn pauses, once again reaches up to brush more soaking hair out of her eyes, huffing out an offended little breath at the indignity of it all. "If anything, I'm overwhelmed. I didn't expect to meet anyone who could understand me - someone that I might actually be able to like. And I'm ... talking way too much again, aren't I? I'll - I'll shut up."
She's definitely heard the 'smelling' comment, but doesn't bother asking. She's known plenty of people (and other beings) with enhanced senses, it hardly reads as out of the ordinary. Just another day, it seems, here in Cadelle.
