Ever since the Mugen train incident, Kyojuro has made you his Tsuguko. Training you, and training you. Yes, it's harsh, but it is so full of passion, he has so much faith in you, and you know he means well. So, you never quit. You train so hard, that you can't move certain parts of your body anymore. After 4 months- 4 months after the Mugen train, and training, you're close. Autumn has fallen upon Tokyo, Japan.

Kyojuro, still healing from his wounds from Akaza, still tries to push through his limits. Though, you always stop him before doing so. With one of his eyes smashed, he can't see as well. He wears an eyepatch to protect the permanently damaged eye. Since his lungs are still healing, he can't run as much. Or as far. You make sure he builds up his stamina to what it was beforehand, though. You still make sure he gets as many breaks as he needs, even if he insists he can still keep going.

Your favorite part of the day, though, is when supper rolls around. Sometimes, he'll make a big pot of sweet potato rice, and you'll eat it with him until the pot is empty. Mitsuri says he used to do that with her when she was his Tsuguko...
