Briefly, Steve is reminded of Batroc's taunt on the Lemurian Star all those years ago. I thought you were more than just a shield. It feels like a lifetime has passed since then.
Since he's already put the shield aside, he unties Mjölnir and sets it in aside as well. Resting the latter on the former is a good way to keep anyone from doing too much damage to themselves, so he doesn't worry about them. "You want to spar?" he ask, arching his brows. "Okay. Fair warning: I punch hard." He hopes she can tell that this isn't a thing he says to disparage her, but an earnest warning he would give to any unsuspecting sparring partner. He doesn't want to hurt anyone here without the benefit of the modern medicine he's grown so accustomed to.

"Got any rules, before we start?"
