Cairo nodded along as Malou responded. She was wise to avoid discussing her thoughts on the Empire in public. His curiosity had consumed him. It was a lapse in judgement. He, admittedly, didn't listen to a lot of rock music. He was more familiar with the stylish, rhythmic guitar that Altair played. He could get into some funkier kinds of rock, too; when deep, booming guitar met soulful crooning. "That's cool! That's not really what I listen to, but I'm open to anything." What did he listen to?
"You wanna check it out?" He pulled out his data phone, with wired earphones wrapped around its audio port. He offered her one earphone, and he leaned across the table with his matching earphone so that they could easily share the music. A soft chord began to play. "I, uh, produce shit like this sometimes. I can't guitar, but do like the backing and the snares?" He tapped along on the table as the song continued. "I mean, not this one, this is dope. My shit's cool too, but just not at that level." He paused the music, suddenly embarrassed at his own taste.
He smiled, awkwardly, rubbing his hand behind his neck as he sipped his Spacely Temple. He was usually a lot better at conversation. He wanted to channel that same, carefree energy he had earlier in the day. Now it felt like he couldn't say anything. "I really don't want to pry, so let me know if this is rude, but...can I ask, how do you see?" He imagined it was through the Force, but he couldn't really conceptualize it. "Do you, like, see the Force?"
"And, uh, what do you like to do? What's a day in the life of Mal- Melody?"
