diegoandgael:moodybluestocking:mototwinkclub:moodybluestocking:mototwinkclub:diegoandgael:So I’m in the midst of giffing this scene and therefore, watching it over and over. And the more I watch it, the more I’m convinced that Cassian originally seduced & slept with this mark to gain his trust and then, information. His body language in this scene, especially this moment where he is holding him and stroking his chest, speaks to this. He could have shot this guy from a distance but he deliberately chose to do this to calm the guy down. This is more “in character” for the relationship he has with the informant. And the fact that Cassian completely fucking turns that body language off as soon as he shoots the guy and becomes cold, collected spy Cassian. Or I could be reading way into it. Either way, headcanon accepted.One million percent agree with this omfg. I’ve been totally convinced since day one that Cassian used sex as a way to get information, and it didn’t matter who with: men, women, other species, rebels, imperial officers. He did what needed to he done. Those terrible things he mentioned. Things he walked away from that he wanted to forget. He definitely used his beauty to his advantage, and he started quite young.I agree with everything you both said… any good spy has to use whatever natural advantage they have to get information. For some agents, that might be an ability to blend in and be unmemorable, but obviously that’s not going to work for a man as beautiful as Cassian. He has his youth, his looks, and his sexual magnetism, and I’m convinced that he used all of those assets to the full in service to the Rebellion.From the first couple of times I saw Rogue One I could absolutely see scenarios where Cassian, from as early as his teens because Draven knew what he had even then, dressed up pretty and hung out in clubs imperial officers were known to frequent. He was beautiful and charming and sweet and officers were easily taken in. They had no reason to suspect this slight, tipsy boy who was more than willing to be pawed, who submitted to whatever they wanted to do to him. Of course, he was gone in the morning, having copied all their documents and files, and no one ever suspected a thing.Definitely plausible. His all-too-brief life was spent doing things for the greater good, for the Rebellion, for the hope of a better future for so many others… but at what cost to himself. Diego does such a fantastic job of showing the residual effects of Cassian’s intelligence work through his body language and subtle facial expressions.Cassian definitely used sex to get Imperial secrets I am 99% positive. As @moodybluestocking​ mentioned, his good looks are going to make him stand out which isn’t great for stealth operations, but perfect for seducing a target to get their info. He knows people are attracted to him and uses it to his advantage. I wonder if that meant he never had a “real” relationship, say, with another rebel on base, because I imagine it’s hard to find someone who will be okay with their boyfriend doing those kinds of intelligence missions. And now I’m sad because lonely!Cassian. :(I need a 100k-word angstfest fic about femme fatale!Cassian and his messed-up relationship with sex and intimacy like, yesterday. What does that say about me?And… just to add, the Rogue One Visual Guide confirms, albeit in a family-friendly manner, that he did weaponize his beauty. Whether they mean “James Bond” style or “femme fatale” style is up to interpretation, I suppose… -- source link
