[Yeah if Neph ever hurts his kids (and Luke is his kid now whether he's ready to acknowledge that out loud or not), he'll have earned the consequences from Takame, too.]
Did you have any other questions, or should I let you return to your classes?
[They can proverbially shake on it. Takame wouldn't do so now, but at the very least he relaxed his posture somewhat. A soldier-off-duty now rather than one ready to enter the front line. Still tense, but less so with a natural sway in his tail.]
None that pertain to Luke. And for now, that was my primary concern.
[He gave another bow.]
My misgivings set aside, 'tis truly appreciated that you took the time to speak with me.

It's to both our benefit to clear the air, after all. And my, I don't think I've ever been threatened so politely before.
Well, I'm sure we'll be seeing more of one another sooner or later, since we're both involved in this business now.
