[There are several empty glasses on the table, and Rey jumps a little when Tex sits with her. But she grins, and raises a half-full cup in greeting.]
Yeah. We don't have beer on Jakku. Someone told me I should try it since I'm twenty-one. Which I guess is how old you have to be to drink on some planets.
[ However, apparently the Kaittans don't have hang-ups about IDing humans at all. Tex is soon brought a glass of her own and she gestures with the glass in Rey's direction. ]
[Honestly, legality has never meant much to Rey. There hadn't ever been a system of government or law enforcement on Jakku; everyone was their own enforcer. But she gets the gist.]
Um, third beer now. But thanks. [She laughs, raising her own glass before taking a swig.]
[ Tex takes a drink and pauses before shaking her head. ]
I honestly don't very much. It's mostly unfamiliarity, I think, though. If this is the only place we can go, it's better than being stuck on Avagi all the time with only nutrition blocks to eat.
[Rey nods in understanding, but immediately shakes her head after just a moment.]
I like it. There's so much... green. [A beat, then she adds:] Jakku, where I'm from. It's a desert. And nutrition blocks are better than portions. More flavor, if you can believe it.

[ She approaches Rey from behind and takes a seat next to her. ]
This is the first time you had beer? You went all out.

Legally. Legally drink.

Here's to your first beer, then.

I bet the Greenery is something else to you, then.
I can't imagine thinking the nutrition blocks are good though. Wow, portions must suck.
