She takes her hand back, settling back into her chair lazily. She supposes she should have guessed such an obvious use for such a large individual. Though she could just as easily assumed the woman was a stonemason or cattle herd. People carrying around weapons in a garrison hardly denoted anything. Until they were motioned to as the denotation.

Carla smiles sideways, eyes heavy-lidded.

"So you are here to intimidate me."

It's a bit of a joke, she also just wants to see the reaction and consider its implications.

Her reaction to that suggestion is immediate, her eyes widening briefly before her nose wrinkles. She knows she can appear intimidating - she stands far, far taller than many other people might, even here in Kirkwall - but she doesn't think she comes across as some kind of rough guard. No, that is hardly her intention, and she shakes her head. Sure and firm; no, not here to intimidate.

If it is meant as a joke it's clear that Tofa does not recognise it as such.

Slowly, her fingers begin to move, as if considering her words intensely before she signs them out.

A motion at Carla, and then a motion at herself, with a raised thumb. Like you. Visitor. She's not sure how to express that her sister is here and so instead she frowns, frustrated.

Carla's smile doesn't move or change, she looks neither intimidated nor apologetic for what she said. She repeats some of the gestures back at Tofa-- me, you. Then she makes a gesture that assuredly reads slightly rude: I'm fucking with you.

The smile widens.

"I'm Carla."

For a moment, all Tofa does is stare at her before, slowly, her eyes begin to narrow. She doesn't like the idea of someone playing around with her and messing with her, but she swallows back the sound of frustration. Instead, she shakes her head and breathes out, stepping back and lifting her hands.

Slowly, she begins to spell out her name using letters.

T - O - F - A.
