Neither Jyn nor Cassian really seems the social type. Indeed, Luna has said Cassian's only real friend in the Rebellion is K-2SO, a droid he programmed himself. So it's kind of sweet that they seem to become good friends over the course of the movie. Granted, that just means it's going to hurt all the more if and when the Rebel soldiers start dying off, but until then it's nice to see these two crazy kids have each other.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is in theaters December 16.
