[He's so caught up in just being angry with Mutsu that he doesn't even notice the scene has shifted at first; he's itching to pick a fight now, and he knows the right word or action will tip them over, and then he can lash out physically instead of just verbally and that's fine—
But then there's a burst of movement in a large panel of mirror still hanging on the wall, and Kashuu's attention snaps to the left. It's not a conversation interrupted and gone terribly wrong. It's a brute-force storming, with men trying to escape or picking up arms, fighting, spilling blood - and one in particular is impressive to the point of standing out, an elegant and dazzling and deadly fighter who cleaves a path through bodies with a bright and bloody blade. Until, of course, he's seized by coughs, spitting up blood of his own into his waiting palm. It's the only opening that's needed, and a rounin brings his blade down so quickly that Souji's block is clumsy--
In a perhaps somewhat ironic parallel, he slams his heel down on the largest shard with an enraged shriek at the same time the reflection of his blade snaps. The glass shatters beneath his weight.]
