[Look, it's all about power. Taako felt bad without his magic until he got... something at least out of this place. It's not what he'd prefer- physical capability was never his style- but at the very least this lets him be formidable in a new way, a thing he can handle. And in a certain way, it worked- he was a lazy funny guy until now it's becoming a problem and Juno has no defenses against that.

That, he can savor.

And uh, by the sounds of it, something else very soon. Taako grins, almost too wide, looking incredibly pleased at this line of questioning.]

Weeeeell, someone's pickin' up what I'm puttin' down. Good job, detective.

[He lets his tongue slip on that word, just a bit forked at the end, as his hand puts the now empty glass down on the counter.]

Use it for plenty of things. But if you wanna be done talking, I think there's lots of times we could talk if that ain't where this is going.
