Yeah, gotta make do with what we have. Still, it'd be nice if we weren't flying fighters that probably saw duty in the Clone Wars. [Ben said with a note of exasperation in his voice. He'd heard all about the privations and shortages the Rebellion and then the early New Republic had to deal with more times than he cared to remember. Leia had been dead-set in making sure her son understood the sacrifices that had been made in order to overthrow the Empire.]
Unfortunate, here I was hoping to hear he'd gotten in trouble having to explain how he managed to lose his snub-fighter. [Petty was definitely not a good look on anyone, especially an ex-wannabe Jedi. Though, there was a reason Ben had flunked out of Jedi school.]
Gotta take care of the best pilot in the Resistance, right? [His words could have come across as mocking or sarcastic but there was enough fondness in Ben's tone to steal any potential venom from his words. The taller man climbed up onto the X-wing with enviable grace and started to fiddle with the right engine.] Worst comes to worst, if we can't fix the power issue, we might have to pull the upgraded chip and see if we can manage a work around.
