No one said anything about... programs... [ it's said in a way that makes it clear that mal wouldn't really understand what 'program it' means.
he reaches up to rub the back of his neck, almost sheepish.
then his attention falls to what's more important, the bounty in her arms. she seems more than capable of carrying it all, but mal's not completely oblivious to what manners look like sometimes. ] Need help carrying any of that?
[Oh. He does say it like it's entirely alien to him and she can't help thinking of Finn, of how awful he is at all things related to technology, and she has to bite down on her lip to keep from smiling. It's charming, that's all, but he doesn't need to know that.
And when he offers her his help her first instinct is to turn him down, to make up some excuse and slip away, but she hesitates as she's about to do just that. If they are going to be sharing a metal box, as he says, it would be better to form relationships with the people inside it with her. She knows she has a long way to go in terms of learning to be a people person and after all, how is she supposed to get better about it if she's always defaulting to being as closed off as she had been on Jakku? Jedi aren't like that.
So she nods, holding out the basket of food to him.]
I suppose I do owe you breakfast after waking you up so early.
[ he's almost surprise she offers him the basket, but mal takes it when she does because he's true to his word and the offers he makes. plus, there's food in it so he's not about to miss a chance to look over and perhaps judge her choices.
he's got a few stashes of food hidden away already, nothing perishable, and all of this looks good but wouldn't be something he adds to the hoards.
if she can tell he's judging, well, he offers a nod of approval after a moment. ] I wasn't going to ask for compensation but since you offered... [ he grins, perhaps a little cheeky about it. ] I won't say no to breakfasst.
I'm more used to a bartering system. We'll call it a trade.
[She likes his smile, she finds herself realizing a little abruptly, and before it's something she's entirely aware of she's giving him one in return. Hers isn't cheeky at all, more subdued and small but warm all the same, and she waves one of the swords at him to motion for him to follow her.]
Rey. Do you think you wait until I've finished my training to eat or should we just set up the picnic right away?
not because ravka doesn't have currency but because meager army wages don't get one very far. ] I can wait. [ he shrugs a shoulder, but he is still curious about what food she's got. ] I could always eat but I'm used to waiting to eat too.
It hits a little too close to home, a little too hard, and it makes her immediately reconsider.]
It probably wouldn't be a bad idea to eat first.
[She leads the way to her little clearing, a small area near the stream where the lush grass turns into one big, smooth rock that's been perfect for practicing her forms on, the two trees where she intends to hang that hammock. She takes a seat first, setting the weapons aside as she settles down onto the soft grass rather than the stone, and motions for him to sit across from her and to hopefully put the basket down between them.]
It's light, but we can go and get more later.
[In the basket he'll find two thick, dense loaves of bread, more than enough fruit for two people, and a giant hunk of cheese that she's fairly sure she can cut at least vaguely into two equal halves.]
