The boy adjusts his steps to re-enter maai distance and moves his blade back with his fists leveled as his waist in wakigamae, hiding much of the blade. "Why wouldn't I.

"Un. I believe that may be so. We... see and do the same, but also different things. Fight different fights, in a way, I suppose", he says, a calm smile still on his lips.
"Seppun-sama would not assume a humble Suzume woodsman would know the trade of running a district in the Imperial City, for instance, ne?", he adds as the smile widens slightly.

Seeing the blade half-hidden behind the Seppun's body, the Suzume steps back again, still with a steady gedan stance. He was nothing if not tenacious.Seppun Yuzu wrote: ↑Wed Sep 01, 2021 4:17 pmThe boy adjusts his steps to re-enter maai distance and moves his blade back with his fists leveled as his waist in wakigamae, hiding much of the blade.

"Un. That much is true, ne?" A moment of silence. "I... assume not all of them would be as able at managing an Imperial district as they were with their duties, though?"
Some more silence as he levelled his breathing and focused on the young man's movements again.
"I... would not expect Lord Hida-no-kami or Lord Togashi-no-kami to replace Hantei-tenno-heika-no-kami in the first Emperor's duties, for instance? Same as I would not expect Lady Doji to be as skilled as Lord Hida in erecting defenses against the South..." He looks at the Seppun for a moment. "Would Seppun-sama disagree in that?"

The Seppun recklessly advances an jumps in a tora buri strike from above, aiming to raise the Suzume’s defenses or stop before hitting the head.
“Hai!” He says after the strike. “I would agree. Which one with their skills. Yet, Mirumoto-shiryo was a very different samurai than Togashi-kami.”
