[she & Booker discussed her learning how to properly fight & use a weapon on the train back from Alfheim & the more Elizabeth thought about it, the more she realizes that it's something she needs to do sooner rather than later.]

I'd like to ask a favor. [her bracelet is set on her dresser & on her face is a look of concern as she pets a sleeping Jack on her lap.] I want to be more useful in the upcoming battles, so I'd like to learn how to properly fight. If it's not too much trouble, would someone be able to give me some lessons? I'd be willing to learn anything you'd be able to teach me.

Wear something you don't mind getting dusty. Um, trousers?

[unchain]

Oh - yeah, I could see why that would be convenient.

[cheesewheels]

Yeah, swordfighting isn't exactly what you'd call clean work. Lots of sweat, and blood, and general wanting-a-bath-after things. But it's fun, too! Anything else you want to know before we get started?

[she's looking pretty excited!]

Should I find my own sword?

[cheesewheels]

Leave that to me. When we get a real sword for you, you can pick it out--but you have to learn on the ones that don't kill people first.

[Elizabeth laughs sheepishly, rubbing her cheek. that makes a lot more sense.]

I suppose you're right.

[cheesewheels]

Great! I'll send you a message when I have your gear--you'll be decapitating giants in no time.

I'm looking forward to it!
