i'm not an expert, but i feel like that's supposed to be somebody we're both close to, you know?
[ illya is not close to many people. he is a hard man to befriend, stubborn and stoic, and doesn't throw himself into other people's business the way daisy has. the fact that he has told her that jack is a friend is something special. ]
i get what you're asking, but i asked you for a reason.
[ Jack can read between the lines, which is that this isn't so much about Daisy as it is about Illya. It makes sense that he wouldn't take to others as easily. All the same, he knows they have roommates, people he must be comfortable with, but it's past the point where he can keep questioning her.
She's clearly made up her mind already. ]
All right. I can give it a shot, but you need to give me some idea of what you want me to say.
[ Not that he would know. Never been married, right? Regardless of what Zerzura wanted him to believe. And he's definitely not going to think too hard on that, to try and dredge up memories that never existed in the first place. It won't lead anywhere good. ]

i'm still wrapping my mind around the fact that it'll happen at all.
[ she would also be totally happy to just... not plan anything, but she has a feeling she's not going to get away with that. ]

[ for saving her life, for being a good friend. for being in her life still, when so many people aren't. ]
think i could convince you to have a drink with us some time to say thank you properly?

yes. just the two of us, and you, and a booth in a bar that's probably seen its fair share of spilled drinks.
nothing fancy.
