There's a definite gleam of interest in her eyes as she sees the tanbo in his hand, and she lifts one of her own in request. "Do you mind?" She'd love to check out the balance and weight; as much as she appreciates the Observer gift of the two weighted batons strapped to her thighs, they aren't quite what she's used to. If she can get something a little closer to familiar, she definitely would appreciate it.

"I do fine with knives, but back home I've got a pair of collapsible batons for hand-to-hand. I've got these for the moment, but they're far from ideal." It wouldn't be fair to ask for one of his weapons without offering one of her own in turn, and she pulls one of the carved wooden batons from its holster, offering it to him grip-first. The metal core gives it a little more heft than one might expect, but it's still a fairly light instrument.
