Kugai:
She looks good in a Suit
And I think it means Elliott thinks you would look good in a Suit.

Mayhap it may even have suffered defenestration.

Yay! ^-^
I'm not the only person who says "mayhap".

It's not always a great idea. Bottles do not break that easily on hard surfaces, either, and if you strike something with the bottle with enough force, you are likely to get fingers full of broken glass rather than anything usable as a weapon. And/or the bottle just shatters completely and you're not left with anything you can easily hold.
From what I know, it's possible to break a bottle without hurting yourself, but it's tricky. Also, an unbroken bottle is a pretty good weapon in itself, anyway. It's basically a club, and clubs can deliver more injury than most people think.

This may just be me but I can't help but wonder how often Brun has to say "I don't know how to interpret that facial expression."
On first read-through, it's an innocent punchline in response to Elliot's very obvious trip away to a happy place. However, on second thoughts, you can't help but realise that it gives an insight into just how difficult Brun must find interacting with new people sometimes. It must be hard to have to navigate a world full of road-signs (body language, some of it subconscious and facial expressions) that are effectively written in a language that she barely understands at all.

Personally, I think it makes you slower and more predictable (you're going to overhand or swing it). Against people who haven't been in any fights? Fine, they may not get that. But, a bouncer is going to be just fine (or, based on what that job entails, should be).
A club or bat has the added benefit of being longer; a bottle, while giving you an extra 6 inches or so, isn't long enough to remove the fact that it's a piss poor weapon against anyone who knows anything about self defense.
