"I want to talk," she remarked with a small shrug. "And get to know you better. And, of course, do as your sister asked me to do even if it involves enlisting Chewie's help to bodily drag you onto the Falcon. But then you'd hate me, and I don't want that. So talking will do, maybe over... breakfast? Did you have breakfast already?"
