"It wasn't lodged there very tightly. I don't know why anyone put it there to begin with. The blade's sound, in spite of the rock, so it's useful enough in spite of how it looks. But Bahorel keeps making a big deal of the whole thing."
Which Prouvaire will no doubt understand, far better than Enjolras, and he knows and accepts that, but -- come on, Bahorel. He needed a sword, that one was there, and that's an end of the thing, right?
He starts unbuckling the sword belt, with the efficient grace of someone who's not only generally accustomed to weaponry, but has gotten a great deal of practice with this particular bit of equipment in the recent past. A completely unintended side effect is that Prouvaire will get a better look at how well all that gold matches his hair!
