She comes back in good time to catch the rest of Elisa's words, and the corner of her mouth quirks. "Huhn. Good t' know it's nae only m'self that's been a little short o' formal schooling. I spent a lotta time hangin' about th' garrison helpin' fix things an' bein' interested, while I was growin' up. Th' boys taught me th' simple stuff, I picked th' rest up on m' own." She looks wistful for a second, then shakes her head. "Could nae afford 'real' trainin', so I s'pose it's just as well."
