[She looks up and clumsily catches the apple, before realizing Mr. Solo's actually talking to her and walking her way. She smiles tiredly at the offer.]

If you'd like to show me, Mr. Solo, I'd be very grateful!

I need to make it in the top 10; Mr. Greed put it on my list of things to do.

[ just give han a minute as he's casually prying off the back of the pinball machine. you know, to examine it. ]

Did he now?

[ hmmm. ]

Let me just make sure the thing's not broken, 'cause I'm having a hard time believing you haven't made it into the top ten yet... I'll fix it for you.

[scrubscrub]

Not broken...? I didn't even consider that was a possibility...

[AMAZING. Though she's not so sure his faith in her being top 10 is well-founded.]

You're very good at fixing things, aren't you?

[falconing]

My ship flies well enough.

[ read: yes, he is, ty.]

Let's see if these wires aren't crossed...

[ he's totally putting magnets in this thing to guide the ball ]

[scrubscrub]

[She nods, watching with rapt attention.

...

...]

Are they crossed?

[falconing]

A little.

[ give him a minute, okay -- and finally, after han is quickly done fixing said machine, he slams the panel back on and straightens out the machine.

now, koala has a much higher chance of landing the ball on a magnet strip which sinks it directly into the available holes for points. ]

There, I think I got it.

[scrubscrub]

Wow...! Thank you so much, Mr. Solo...!

[She looks at the machine with some reluctance, as if worried maybe she's just a horrible pinball player.]

Should I...?

[Are you sure?]

[falconing]

Be my guest.

[ with a gesture ]
