[ he'll let kogi take care of the rest, setting the pots and pans back down as fishy ends up trapped in the Powerful Tank Enclosure once more. is it see through? can fishy still stare at them?

but then kogi asks about his magical pan juggling display, and tsurumaru's kind of surprised, actually, because is it really so strange? answering, in a slow, thoughtful tone: ]

It's like sparring, but with two swords instead of one. [ and it's not as if they can be really heavy swords, either, because can you imagine someone dual-wielding oodachi? not a pleasant time. ]

Not that I actually focused on using two swords at once, really — but it's not surprising if I always favor one side while I fight, right? You'll always encounter surprises that you won't expect — and you just have to surprise them back!

[ three whole times... how long can tsurumaru go without saying 'surprise'? not very long, actually. ]
