[ He rightens himself, standing back up to his full height now that his gun's out of the way, holding his sword at his side. ]
Sure. You kinda look like him. Makes sense.
[ He shifts his stance; probably lighter on his feet than a man of his build should be. As he talks, he works on some wrist-strengthening exercises; won't mean anything here, where he isn't doing anything with his actual body, but it's more about the habit of doing it than anything else. Respect for the weapon. ]
I grew up with guns. It's weird not having them around. Sword's a hell of a lot different. Not like it's a bad thing, but not even close to what I'm used to.
[ Considering how he's never so much as held a sword until he met Geralt, there's probably a lot of similarities in how he carries himself with one. He shifts to a full front stance — likely an early indication that he's someone who's going to take the offensive pretty much every single time – and tries a few cuts through the air. Power's evident in his swings, but by this point he's also figured out how to maintain his balance, stay light on his feet. He definitely started off wild; he's not anymore. ]
