[Likewise, Sousei has never really trusted easily...but Shinpachi is trustworthy, and believable, and he knows what he needs to know to know that it's safe to fight with Shinpachi at his back. Shinpachi won't allow anything to harm him this way. And it's different from fighting with the Yamainu, and different too from fighting with Tenka, but nonetheless...
It isn't bad.
But it does mean that he can't let Shinpachi down in turn, and so he simply lifts his sword, eyebrow arching.]
You're too cocky.
[but he doesn't actually sound bothered by that fact at all--he knows Shinpachi has the skills to back it up.]
Save your words for after the fight, and then we'll see.
[And then the elves are on them, all sorts of makeshift toy weaponry in their little freakish hands, and Sousei lifts his sword and focuses on fighting elves instead of scolding Shinsengumi captains for a bit.]
