Every chance they took at been worth it. They had transmitted the plans and someone had been listening, someone had taken those plans and finished her father's work.
Her eyes stay closed as she reaches for her necklace, fingers curling around the crystal as Poe tends to her other hand. She doesn't fight it, all the fight seeming to have left her entirely in the moment, flooded with an odd kind of gratitude that the one thing that had gone right in her life was finding and transmitting those plans, fulfilling her father's legacy.
Fragility touches her voice now, as if it had broken and she's holding the shattered pieces of her entire life together by willpower alone. "My father built it, the Death Star, to keep me safe from the Empire, so that they wouldn't look for me and try to use me against him. He designed the flaw in it and he told us how to find the plans."
Jyn herself doesn't need credit, doesn't want it, but she does want her father to have some breath of recognition. He deserves that much, even if it's just Jyn telling a new friend.
