"Hey now! Try to take it easy, 'kay? I would hate for all my hard work to go to waste because you're bein' a hardass." And really, Mitsuyo's not tryna' antagonize you, or nothin. Just... He wouldn't wanna embarrass you again. Well- technically you had embarrassed yourself for the most part at how kept cryin' n' whinin' about how he was hurting you in the process of relocating your fingers. Honestly, he's impressed that you were still rearin', ready to fight anything that dared to approach, but for your ego he won't tell you about all those lil' high-pitched girly squeals. Nah. Although... Just the thought of the even cuter face you would make if he did mention it to you made him feel just as giddy, goodness... You were such a spitfire too! Refusing to back down or submit even if the odds were stacked against you, it was kinda admirable.

But if you really wanted to he would be glad to let you run wild and break your body all over again it would just mean more fun for him and more discomfort for you, because he knew for sure no matter how tough you may seem out there in the ring, how truly fragile you were at heart. It was adorable, really. How you squirmed and tried so desperately to hide that you couldn't stand the pain, no doubt you had been beaten and gotten more fatal injuries in the past too, but at the end of the day we're all human, so Mitsuyo won't hold it against you. Because you really did intrigue him with how you gave one of his own students a run for his money, ultimately defeating Cosmo fair and square after you had broke through his tactics whereas Cosmo was pretty bummed out he was sure the boy would get over it eventually.
