"You don't need to buy me a shield, Eskel," she protests. "Surely something...else was more what you had in mind."

Even though she doesn't know how to use a sword, and while she can use a dagger in a fight, she's definitely not nearly as adept at knife-fighting as Bucky is. Bows and arrows were more Clint's thing than hers, even though she could probably do alright with them in a pinch. Out of everything on display in this little shop, the shield in her hands is definitely the instrument she's most comfortable with, but still.
