[Usually, when they're training, Yasusada will give instructions, or call out Kazu's weaknesses and openings. This time, though, he's quiet, focused. He watches Kazu's face, the wild shifting of his shoulders, and reacts accordingly.
He shifts in and jabs at Kazu's solar plexus--and while normally he doesn't hold back in training, this time, it's just enough to knock the wind out of him for a moment. For all his fervor and intensity, Yasusada has the control of Okita Souji; he will not truly injure someone within his range unless he wants to.]
[ the strike lands, of course. kazunari sees it coming, but he's not fast enough to dodge, and he doesn't really try, anyway. he wheezes for a second to try to catch his breath, but then he gives yams a small smile and swings the sword in a horizontal slash. there's not as much frantic energy behind this one, something more like a familiar routine. ]
