You know, Taako had been internally mostly joking about all that cowboy stuff, no need to lean into it, there, 'Kid.' He does at least keep his amusement to a bare, plausibly deniable minimum of a smirk, out of respect for what has been actually a pretty pleasant exchange. Find plenty of trees, is that dry humour, is that just how he is, what a bandanna-wrapped mystery.
"Yeah, that sounds about right." It sounds about fake, but that's fine too, he gets it. "You should probably skedaddle before I think of something else for you to bring me." He kids, he kids, Taako isn't gonna play quest-giver forever unless it keeps working. Can he get away with a 'y'all come back now, y'hear'? That would probably cross a line, huh, but he's grinning outright now, anyway. Man, sure hope nothing just pops tf off on this island, putting all this peaceable, constructive planning kind of on a back burner, that would really suck.
