Blaze gives a grunt and a nod. She's certainly not joyful about the prospect, but - perhaps surprisingly - she accepts it without complaint. It goes against the grain, but that's diplomacy for you.
It's while she's making sure her own weapon is unloaded and quiescent as can be that she asks a little more quietly, "And my armor?"
Because that's the one that really matters to her. Any show of disarmament from her is just that - a show, a statement of good intent. It's not as if she even really fears coming under attack. She's mostly confident in Steve's judgment. Maybe too confident in her own abilities. But her fieldplate is much more to her than a defensive bulwark or enhanced strength. This trip may involve cracking it open one way or another but she's... reluctant.
