He had warned her that he might thrash around a little, but Jyn was jerked awake by something that was far more than just a little, the scream that ripped from his throat more than enough to set her nerves on edge, the slamming of his hand against the side table what sent her out of bed entirely, her hand searching the nearby table for a weapon - any weapon - just in case she might need to defend herself.
Even though her head was spinning and her side was hurting all the worse from the sudden movement, she realized that it was a night terror that had Rilio in its grasp. She didn't want to poke or prod at him, cause him to react violently, running the risk of hurting the both of them.
Her voice firm, but not angry, she reminded him of who she was, where they were, whatever he was seeing wasn't real, and that he was, for the moment, safe with her.
