[It takes Sieglinde a moment, once Steve turns around, to realize he wants to spar now. She removes her sword and shield from her back, and holds them up for him to see.

The sword itself is large - a bastard sword, intended to be carried in two hands, although she carries it in only one. Her shield, in contrast, is fairly small - meant more for parrying than taking the full brunt of an attack. And in the center of the shield, there's a large metal spike.]

I don't mind at all! But, er, is there anywhere I might be able to grab a practice sword? My own is quite sharp, and I feel as though Captain Apple would be cross with me if I injured you with it.
