I'm guessing this means you're enjoying the lessons?
[He's a tough teacher. As anything combat-related, Raidou takes training and sparring very seriously, and Yuji gets treated like anyone else who'd ask Raidou for lessons. Not that Raidou would think that Yuji would want him to go easy on him.
He's smiling when he says that, though, a hand running down Yuji's arm, taking his hand to draw Yuji back to him.]
You bet I am! Between you and Tsurumaru-san I'm going to be amazing in no time!
[ Yuji is already decent with most weapons, a natural instinct for it that he doesn't think about too much, but practice is going to make him even better. He can't always rely on his fists, he's learning that, especially with the range of monsters they're being asked to fight. It's growing up, isn't it?
His own smile is bright and warm as he takes Raidou's hand, letting himself be drawn back so he can sit as close as he physically can again. ]
You already are. But, with my help, you'll be even better.
[Said with a playful tone, of course, as he settles against Yuji, head on his shoulder.]
I'm going to spar against him soon, finally. Told me we could have one match.
[He's not sure why just one, maybe he's too busy. But there aren't many sword fighters here with the same experience level as Raidou, and with Shion gone, he's lost his primary sparring partner.]
Be careful, he's tough! He totally cut me to pieces when we fought.
[ And then took care of him after, but that isn't the point, now, is it? Yuji makes himself comfortable, arms wrapping around his boyfriend - !!! - gently, stroking along his back. ]
I'm not surprised to hear that. [Now that he knows Tsuru is a sword spirit, things about him make a lot more sense to Raidou. He's looking forward to the challenge.
He looks down at their hands, linked together, matching rings shining. It seemed almost surreal to Raidou. How did this happen?]
And if he's okay with it, sure. But only if you cheer me on.
[Oops. Raidou bites his lip, suppressing a grin. There was no shortage of cute guys among the Outsiders, that's for sure. He shrugs, embarrassed but amused to get called out.]
[At least getting teased by Yuji now isn't leaving him a stammering mess. He's smiling brightly, face red. He slips a hand to the back of Yuji's neck, fingers light and teasing.]

Do you think I'd be allowed to watch?

[ Yuji fighting style: get close enough to punch, if they hit you along the way... That's fine. ]
You think I'd cheer for him over you? Silly.
no subject
Have to make sure the handsome sensei won't steal you away.

[ Yuji leans up, watching Raidou a little, leaning close into his personal space. ]
You think Tsurumaru-san is handsome, huh?
[ He is pretty cute... Pretty, too, and kind of lithe... Different to Yuji... ]
no subject
Not as much as some others.
no subject
[ He's really pushing into the personal space now. He's not really jealous, but the chance to tease Raidou is right there, so... ]
You think there are people more handsome than him?
no subject
Mm hmm. Maybe just one or two.
no subject
Hm... Are you gonna leave me in suspense? Do I need to guess your type?
no subject
Well.. there is this one boy. He's sweet, and full of energy, and has this cute pink hair. Maybe you know him.
no subject
[ Yuji is watching him with an overwhelming softness. ]
He sounds kind of cool, Johei.
no subject
[His expression is much the same, fingers toying with the hair on the back of Yuji's head.]
He's a pretty good kisser, too.
no subject
[ Look at him, master of flirtation. ]
no subject
I don't know. You could try it and see what you might be missing out on.

[ And, no hesitation, he leans in to kiss Raidou, head tilted just so - he's got practice now. ]
