"I might just take it as a personal challenge to see if I can get past your defenses," she said. She'd fought Templars before. It took some careful maneuvering, finding the very small places where a good strike could be given. She was certain she could surprise him. The words were out of her mouth before she realized a second meaning that could be found in them.
With a pleased smile, she looked back up at the sail. "I haven't laughed this much in a long time." Or smiled, she realized belatedly. Really smiling, not the look she gave enemies. It was a depressing thought, one she shoved aside. It was too nice of an evening to waste on those things. She looked back at him. "Thank you."
