Han did as well, but then turned around as if that was nothing.

"See? Not a problem at all." he mildly boasted with a relaxed posture.

"Ok." Jaral conceded with a friendly smile. "I guess you might be a good challenge even for our pilot."

Han assumed a slightly more serious posture on the seat. "So you two...are the siblings I've heard about? The leaders of the Rebellion?" he asked.
