[ little does she know he was also talking to himself in that moment
shocking, truly
it'd be easy for him to just kiss her again to smother the moment and not have to face up to all of this, but he manages to avoid the urge and just holds her gaze, letting her fight through it all, the tiniest smile ghosting the edge of his lips ]
... Good.
I mean, I know you like me because I'm a scoundrel, but just like Han, my secret? Is I'm not that bad. [ and it's clear now that it's important to him that she doesn't just write him off the way she used to, especially now that he's let her see the most vulnerable sides of himself. not to mention the side that desperately wants to play the hero and not just be some pirate/thief/player in her eyes. ]
