Graemon knew how to butter Endor up. There was nothing the General enjoyed more than talking about starfighters. The rebel pilot's bushy bearded face lit up at the mention of XJ7s.
"The Ewoks..." Likely referring to his personal squadron, Endor's Ewoks. "...use XJ7s. They're a hell of a bird. Fast, mean, and they can take a real beating. I'd use one myself, but I'm a fan of the classics. I reckon my supped up T-65 could give them a run for their credits. I fit it with an overdrive and lets just say the first time I used it, I had to take her into the shop for a week to reinforce the frame after all the cracks I put into it." Next to the General, a horn headed snowok sauntered into the commander center and offered Endor a steaming cup of stimcaf. He picked the mug up, extending his pinky and took an audible slurp of the steaming beverage. "I also wouldn't mind getting a look under the hood of those E-wings, see what improvements you Coalition lads have made. I flew one of the base models once in a skirmish over Tynna. I can see why some prefer it over the X-wing, but as I said, I'm a sucker for Galactic Civil War era snubs."
Bringing the cup up to his lips once more, the General downed the remainder of the boiling hot liquid with a grimace, letting out a steaming breath as he sighed in satisfaction and dragged the back of his sleeve across his mouth.
"The Rebellion would be happy to accept your loan. Though I feel it only fair to warn you..." He rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "...I don't have the best track record of returning ships intact. The Force only knows what Master Malvern of the Jedi Lords is going to say when he hears about what happened to that Orion battlecruiser he let me borrow."
