It's not the same as having his actual vessel with him, but Yasusada already looks much more comfortable with a sword in his hand, even if it's wooden. He smiles brightly and trots up to Kazu when he spots him!!!]
Right, right, we're uchigatana! Like this. [He lifts up the sword he's holding as he guides them over to the wall, pointing out the other sizes as he speaks.] We know the most about that, of course, but you can try a tachi if you want, or a wakizashi or a tantou. They're all used in different ways, so your training would be different depending on what you pick.
[ this is good, because he'll need the direction! from how to properly hold the sword and the proper form for attacks or defense... but he's a quick learner, at least!
but he has like no stamina compared to a sword, so he's definitely getting worn out faster than yams will expect. ]
I guess so... [Man, for all the time he spent with humans, his perspective is still just as skewed as its always been, huh. THE SHINSENGUMI TRULY WAS FULL OF WEIRDO OUTLIERS.] Maybe we should work on your stamina first.

You bet I am! Gotta make sure I do Okita justice, right?!
no subject
Right, right! Okay, do you want to choose a sword?
no subject
You know I do! It's supposed to be - what, a tachi? Or, wait, Kiyopi said uchigatana... They're pretty similar, though, right?
[ he doesn't actually know a lot about swords catch him reading a book on this later ]

We'll just warm up first, so follow my movements.

Alright, I'm in your hands, Yams!

Against all odds, Yasusada is a decent teacher--strict, but clear and focused, and willing to help until Kazu gets his movements right.
The problem is, he doesn't know a single thing about normies, so. Stopping? Water breaks? What's that?]

Okay, okay, time out. I think I need a breather.

Hmmm... maybe you could try running? I know Buzen likes that.

...Maybe. I haven't really been running regularly since we did Kumopi's first show... but I know he wanted running partners while we're here.
