[There's a part of him that wants to say it's fine, but it isn't. He doesn't really know how he feels, hearing something like that, and he certainly doesn't know if it's better or worse for Souji to feel that resignation himself. Does it hurt more like this? Is it painful? He imagines it is. A drawn-out death is awful.
But he'll handle it as he usually does, unsurprisingly. He can revisit this later (maybe) when they're not trapped in a little bubble floating out to sea.]
Hold onto me if you need to, okay?
[Even if he's only just about to find out how well he can really swim, he's a sword, right? And it's his duty to protect, even if there are just some things that a sword can't cut through.
As Souji rises to his knees, Kashuu will try to find the least shaky way to strike a stance. He draws his blade and angles the sword upward-] Ready? I'm gonna give it a shot. [-And pierces through the double layers of plastic, creating a pretty large gash that arcs overhead.
Which means the stale air inside is rushing out fast and the bubble itself is losing buoyancy, too. Kashuu slides his blade back and reaches up as quickly as he can to pry the layers of plastic apart, trying to create enough of a gap for Souji.]
