The daily training expectation suits Steve just fine; he prefers to vary his workouts, and certainly picking up a sword is much more varied than he'd have imagined before coming here. He's not only game for it, but he likes to try to look for those who look uncomfortable. He remembers what it was like to be the outsider at boot camp, and that's the last thing he'd wish on anyone.

He can't even be upset when the sword goes flying out of his hand. Thankfully no one is hurt by the move — they're spaced far enough away from the other people practicing — and he just shakes his head and offers his partner a smile.

"Disarming your opponent is a great strategy, don't you think?" He means it honestly; it might not have been the intent, but it had been effective. And Steve certainly isn't a stranger to unorthodox strategies.
