The scarf. The kid seems very attached to the idea of covering his face. What had happened in his son's life that had made him feel that he had to hide, he wondered. And then, he actually considered the question for a while and suddenly it seemed almost as if 'what hadn't happened to Ben Solo that made him want to hide his face' was the better question.
Some of this work that they were doing for the sake of his son he had to wonder if he ought to do for himself. After all, you can be a former rebel general, former starship racer and infamous smuggler and keep a low profile. But. For as many doors that closed for him, because of who he was, a number of them also opened.
And if he'd gone through the trouble of changing his face, well then ... he might have completely missed this little lady entirely.
"Huh." Han says simply upon seeing the alien again. "Good to see you made it off Takodana okay."
The female alien's expression is unreadable to Han. He can't tell if the woman is mad, frustrated or simply troubled, but perhaps it's all three. Then again, you don't get to live a life as long as Maz Kanata does without being resourceful.
Han adds, "I'm sorry about the castle."
There's a long silence while she looks at Han and then, over at his son. She seems to be lost in her thoughts for a while before she spit's out a few words in a language Captain Solo can't translate.
"No building is meant to stand forever." She then says in basic. "Trouble always seems to be in your wake, Han Solo."
