[BLINDED, KAORU IS BLINDED-- What's with this guy and his copious sparkling and his politeness and claiming to be a sword.
To be fair though, that's somehow not the strangest thing that Kaoru has heard anyone claim since arriving in Cerealia. Once you meet an anthropomorphic country, talking and walking swords don't seem as far-fetched as they probably should. A somewhat hesitant smile...]
I apologize, but... you are the sword? [Said in a way that implies Kaoru's just double-checking, just making sure that there was no mishearing going on there. If not, then... ?!?! WELL it sure means Kaoru's got an interesting and unique tunnel exploration comrade. It would also kind of explain his incredible finesse with the sword - (a sword using a sword???) but really, Kaoru would just rather not think about any of that at all.
INSTEAD, a brief but polite nod is given in return. It's still the polite thing to do, even if he's a sword and not a person... No response is given in return to the INTENSIFYING SPARKLES or the fact that Tsurumaru is excited, though. He seems like he's the kind of person who would be excited over the edible pearls that go on fancy cupcakes...]
Please keep a little distance, Tsurumaru-san. The tunnel will get a little cramped before it opens up again, and it would be terrible to get stuck in a place like this.
[Sparkles McGee will just have to sparkle from afar... With that, Kaoru turns around to start leading the way. One hand reaches out to skim along the wall, but Tsurumaru will probably notice that there isn't the hesitance in Kaoru's steps that typically comes along with not being able to see well in the dark.]
