Ah, talking swords. She's not Ruby or anything in level of obsession, but talking swords remains close to her heart.
"Rapiers. Or longswords, but I prefer the weight of rapiers. I'm assuming you're not from somewhere with sport fencing so the long and short is that my style of fighting trades weight for speed. A lot of speed. So it'll have to be flexible enough not to snap when I hit something. I like basket hilts but I'm not fussy, just something to protect my hand. I also like to use an off-hand- usually like a parrying knife- I don't need it toothed or anything, but I need to be able to catch shit with it."
Darcy reaches for a pencil, then raises her eyebrows as if to ask permission to take it.
