"It's more fun to watch if they haven't got weapons." ...based on what, Ilde? (On the other hand, does anyone really want to know what she gets out of watching other people beat each other?) "My boyfriend -- I hate that word - is in the midst of all that," with a vague, smoky gesture back towards the club they spilled out of, "but it was beginning to feel a bit too claustrophobic in there for me."
This is an easier conversation to have than 'so, Hilmi!'; they're not really close enough for that conversation, Ilde figures, and it feels awkward how much she's already been privy to by circumstance. If she were better at this, she'd try to bring that up, somehow, but-- she's not, so they can have a smoke and talk about men punching each other. That works.
