[Cassian lifted his head.

A moment ago he'd been hugging Jyn Erso. Now he was hugging a metal floor. He thought about springing to his feet, but the pain of being shot then falling down the data tower was returning to him. He'd forgotten about it on the beach…

…and it wasn't all the pain. It was much milder. He no longer ~~felt like~~ knew he was about to die. But there was still something broken in there, and his head swam and he was nauseated like he was concussed.

The voice near him made him reach for his blaster. First he remembered that he'd left it on the citadel tower. Then he noticed that he wasn't wearing his own clothes, so it wouldn't be there anyway. He zeroed in on the source of the voice, and grabbed for it, the device, instead. He tried to sit up to examine it and was rewarded with a fresh stab of pain. Okay, injuries maybe no longer fatal but still bad enough.

Forcing the pain and nausea aside, a few minutes' examination allowed Cassian to stop the recorded voice and try to get more information. Space station. (Made sense with what he could see.) Not Imperial. Not Alliance. Not… anything he recognized. He was near the crew quarters on level 6… but who were the crew?

The pain was getting harder to ignore. He couldn't keep lying here, and he couldn't move under his own power. Without knowing who he was dealing with—

or how he got here—had the white light not been a kyberblast been some sort of tractor beam? had they been picked up? was it a rescue or were they captives? where was Jyn??

—he should give as little information about himself as possible, so he could match identity to situation once he learned it. Choosing a civilian affect, Cassian set the device to what he hoped was an open transmission.]

I think… I need medical help. I'm on level 6. …I need help.

[ the last thing jyn expects when she turns on her device that morning is to see that face. tears fill her eyes, holding the watch far too close to her face as she sprints to the elevator. thankfully, there's only one deck between them and it shouldn't take her long at all to find him. ]

Cassian. Hang in there, I'm coming.

Usually in this place someone always comes to the rescue.

Hey, hang in there. Do you see a door number or anything?

... Cassian? [ there's a bizarre swirl of emotions, similar to the ones he'd felt when he'd met Jyn here, on seeing Cassian. he'd been in the library, when the message had gone up initially so Bodhi isn't sure how long it's been or if he's gotten help yet. ]

Where -- has anyone come to you, yet?

I can come and heal you, I'm on level 5. Do you know where in level 6 you might be? Are you poisoned in some way or is it physical pain?

[He's asking questions to keep the other awake, in case this is a major issue.]

[Having seen the later messages he knows the guy's at least sorta alright now, so onto other things.]

Are you with the Rebellion?

[Well, maybe he shouldn't be that blunt.]

Oh, uh. I hope you're doing better also?
