[It really is a big deal to be able to trust someone to stop him from going on a rampage - but if anyone would be able to do it with certainty, it's Saya. Hijikata is sure that he wouldn't cause her the pain of having to kill him, either. For someone of her calibre, it'd be feasible to restrain a werebeast! Any wounds she might have to cause him in the process would heal well before dawn. Ideally, though, he'd notice any changes in his self-control in time and call the spar off.
The ripple she sends through his fire fish makes it seem like they're really underwater for a moment. He twists around as he senses her appear behind him, once more raising his swords barely in time to meet hers. While his performance so far is something he can pride himself of as a human, she certainly is keeping him on the defense with little effort!
Given their shared season and her general hardiness, he knows that using his fire in earnest would be a waste of mana more than anything else, but he does have a surprise up his sleeve... Saya will find 3 lava swords forming in the air above her, all coming down at the same time to slash at her from different angles. Hijikata knows that his ability to multitask will decrease the more he gives in to his animalistic feelings, but right now he can still focus on wielding both his physical and elemental weapons (the latter via telekinesis).]
No worries!! I hope the new year will go easier on you. ♡
