Bekk had put on a weak smile to sorta dampen the embarrassment from admitting his short comings he felt would start rolling in once Rassha replied, but she gave him a nice ego boost instead. Her smile was small, yet radiated the kind of approval he'd longed for since he began screwing up around her. Now the hard part was just maintaining it, something he was more than up to the challenge for.
Ironically, being able to understand togruti near fluently made it all the more saddening that Bekk could never reply with the same eloquent. To reply with anything other than a yes or no with his broken togruti seems like it should be a crime against her people on a whole. First degree butchering of a language, and he would be guilty as charged.
Having to pay attention to the subtle twitches of her lekku kind of took away from enjoying the setting sun from the passenger side. However, the approaching night from the driver's side was certainly stunning to look at. Getting a chance to experience a view like this every evening just compounded the reasons he was going to enjoy this trip to meet her family.
"What do you mean I might not need it?" The zabrak asked, looking a bit stumped while trying to follow the train of logic with that statement. The lightsaber, the weapon of the Jedi, was clearly a melee weapon, so that didn't explain how there was some way for a Jedi to compete with the effectiveness of a bow or blaster.
Having a blade that can apparently cut anything can only get you so far.
"Did the Jedi have a special range weapon as well?" Bekk inquired, quickly trying to picture what doesn't fit under blaster or bow, and is still effective at hitting targets at range. Slugthrower was the best bet in his mind, but javelin or sling weren't ruled out either.
