#fandom readings of her. don't have the luxury of political opinions means something quite specific from someone you know kept in a death cam

[rotzaprachim]

moments to look back on with rogue one in light of andor. i think cassian wanted to burn wobani to the ground. what is it for him to know that the rebels have the resources, probably, to take only targeted individuals from imperial death camps, to save in this case only jyn erso’s life because she’s needed for some broader rebellion purpose? how does this change everything in Rogue One?

#the fact that cassian and jyn (and melshi!!!) are canonically survivors of imperial labour camps that did nothing but want them to die #the canon of this. it is. it's canon #cassian andor #jyn erso #the luxury speech but i think it's more complicated. there's looking in the eyes of someone who lives while others do not #and how they didn't save jyn because they were saving /her/ life #they were getting her as part of a targeted intelligence plan with broader ramifications #she has this *luxury* in brackets (i think jyn's time in an imperial labour camp is something that utterly and completely tanks a good many #fandom readings of her. don't have the luxury of political opinions means something quite specific from someone you know kept in a death cam #p) #but that luxury it to LIVE and it never should have been a luxury at all! no way to look at them both #but face the fact they're both just. survivors in the wake of what never ever should have happened #andor #rogue one
