There's a lot to learn. Cal's gained a few new scars over the years, usually from mercenaries and bounty hunters, though as time passed people were getting less and less used to fighting a Jedi. That, and his own abilities, particularly his connection to the Force, has kept getting stronger. It's been a while since he's been hurt now. He's not sure he's much different as a person, although he probably is. Fighting the Empire almost non-stop for this long has been both tiring and rewarding, but he definitely wouldn't have done it any differently either.

Even if he was never meant to end their reign, he thinks he's helped people. That counts for a lot.

At the comment about needing a shower, he turns his head to quickly sniff his clothes. And it does smell, but it could be worse, so the way he recoils is mostly a joke.

"Yeah, it wouldn't. It's a good thing you can't smell, BD."

There's a beep if agreement, even if the droid wouldn't really know what he's lucky enough to miss out on.
