( Right? Right? Things are perfectly fine — Heisuke is conscious all the same, grinning all the same, and he'll even go out of his way to recite what Kashuu seemed to have doubts about just for him. )

Indeed! How could I forget that I'm Heisuke Toudou, leader of the eighth division of the Shinsengumi!

( His voice is a lot louder now, and he sounds awfully proud of that title. Despite the fact that he was, you know, quitting before; that's beside the point, he's pretty confident and that counts as proof of things being fine, doesn't it? Expectantly, he raises his glass up for Kashuu to toast with him, speaking up with the same boisterous tone. )

Is indulgence not the joy of life? Come, Itou-san, to the Shinsengumi!
