Maybe she really was just an unassuming child after all - Zoe had seen many normal citizens during the war who had, in order to protect themselves and their families, would grab anything big and solid to use as a club. Wasn't much good against a trained solider or Reavers, but in tense situations, any weapon was better than no weapon at all. But the mention about gems...Zoe frowned. She hadn't ever heard of a weapon with gems in them before.

She turned the girl's weapon in her hands, testing the weight and balance of it. Not too bad, but definitely not her style - blunt object or not. "Not really my style. I'd rather have something I can use at a distance too."
