Takumi observes Hana at practice and she reminisces about when they used to train together, but Takumi RUNS OFF, which makes her wonder. He stalks her silently a few more times at her training, which is super weird, and then she asks him why they stopped training together. Takumi can't believe she doesn't remember. Sakura stopped by their training and Hana proposed a duel with practice swords and Hana wanted to show off and Takumi didn't want to hurt his little sister's friend right in front of her so when she really went at it Takumi ended up beaten senseless. Hana does not even remember this, but it has clearly traumatized him. After a while Hana stubbornly goes to find him and begs him to allow her to protect him, because she was waaaay out of line hurting Sakura's brother, one of her charges. Takumi decides that they can spar again -- not because she should protect him, which she shouldn't, but because she needs to be strong for Sakura. Hana is surprised to see him smile! 4/5


When you S support them, Hana is reporting to Takumi on a regular basis that she has successfully protected Sakura, and he is like, you don't... need to constantly tell me, I'm confident you can do it. But Hana admits that she liked the excuse to talk with him -- he was quite cold with her before they talked out the sparring incident, and she's wanted to spend more time with him to confirm her feelings for him. Takumi teases her a little because he likes her too. Hana is super happy and it's cute. Support: Awww, violence!
