Explanation
With that, Jabba turns to see the crimson eyes that belong to Yami locked on him. Those very eyes happened to be sparkling with mischief.
"What did you do to me?" Jabba finally asks. However, as Yami's trademark smirk appears on his face, Jabba's tone of voice makes it sound like it's more of a demand than a question. (And Yami is five thousand years old, so he has an ability to tell the difference between a question and a demand.)
And Yami isn't even fazed — not one bit. But he decides to give Jabba an answer anyway. "Well, it's partly because I wanted to see if you were impervious to my Shadow Magic when you were a Hutt, and it turns out that you're actually susceptible to it. Besides that, it's also partly because of what your majordomo, Bib Fortuna, has told me about you, Jabba."
Bib has been wondering when his name would crop up. As soon as he hears Yami say his name, Bib blinks a little in surprise before taking that as his cue to walk into the throne room, and then over to where Yami is. Yami then looks over and smiles at him.
"Did I hear my name, Yami?" Bib asks (except in Basic instead of Twi'lek).
Yami nods. "That you did, Bib — that you did."
Bib smiles, although his smile is replaced by a look of shock when he turns to look at his former master, only to do a double take when he sees that Jabba is human instead of the Hutt he'd once been. "Yami, what did you do to Jabba? And how, exactly, did Jabba become human?"
Seeing Bib's puzzled look, Yami explains. "Basically, I cast a 'Hutt into human' spell on Jabba. That kind of spell is very powerful, as it only works on those who are members of the Hutt clan and transforms them into humans." He then smiles. "Also, the spell is permanent, which means you won't have to worry about the spell breaking, or Jabba turning back into the Hutt he once was either."
Bib blinks. "Oh. Oh, I see." He then looks thoughtful. "Well, there's one thing I do like about this — and that's that hopefully, you're much nicer than Jabba personality-wise. And, the way I see it, at least in the looks department, you'd beat out Jabba any day."
Yami takes a moment to process what Bib has told him, before nodding in agreement, seeing the truth in Bib's words. He definitely would beat Jabba in the looks department; that is for sure.
