Mmhmm! Here, try this one. [Handing him an uchigatana--it's a standard wooden sword, probably easy enough for Aymeric to handle despite the different shape and style.] This is the kind of sword I am.
Mm, the mats are a better choice for the people here anyway. [The kids don't need to see the bodies, or something? He doesn't really get it but it's fine.]

Well, one time Okita-kun used me to do a hip cut on someone--I think he was a little older than Okita-kun? He was pretty tall...
