The Sparrow is somewhat surprised by the hint coming from the winded Moto, but pleasantly so. He answers with a nod and a warm tone on his voice.Moto Mitsuki wrote: ↑Fri Sep 03, 2021 3:15 pm"Hey.
Remember your trick to grab your bokken with two hands and strike in the same movement? Turns out it works quite nicely against an opponent without a shield."
The voice was Mitsuki, unfresh out of her fight, breathless and sweaty, but otherwise looking fine.
"Not sure it would have worked twice against the same opponent though... But not an issue for a duel to first strike, isn't it?"
"Ah, ohayou Moto-sama! Congratulations on your win!" He the considers what she said. "Un... It can work well to make sure you get a good strike in an opponent with a strong defence, I suppose, ne?"
His lessons and the duel with Haruhi came back to his mind even as he said that, though, and the pondering is clear in his eyes.
"I assume it depends on the circumstances, and the opponent... I have been learning how, if you learn how to use them properly, two swords can be as good as one wielded with greater strength - and also a good form of defence. It... Is a challenging style, though".
Another nod, and he looks at her with a friendly expression on his eyes.
"I see your own style has served you well, though! I assume this wasn't your first experience with Iai, ne?"
