[ honestly the best thing to happen to him so far in all of this horrible and hideous mess is that he was able to get his clothes back, but he's still going to be worried about things being tampered with.
which is to say that he'll have his sword drawn briefly before him examining the blade for any flaws or cracks somewhere in the middle of the camp grounds near the bonfire. no reason to do it too close to anyone who he might hurt. he isn't equipped with properly caring for it so he really hopes that there's nothing wrong.
though once he deemed everything to be in order, he'll put it back into the its sheath and start to head off to explore the area. he has a lot of ground to cover. ]

[ meanwhile, kara is doing the same around the courts! he's taking his time to check every inch of his sword, both sides, for anything off. he seems to be satisfied, though, because once he's done he'll start in on practice maneuvers. but when he hears giyuu, kara turns suddenly, blade pointed in his direction.
sorry, dude, it's a reflex. ]

[ being jumpy is one thing and then blindly attacking willy nilly due to a noise are two different things but given what has been going on, giyuu isn't about to judge anyone for striking out. especially since he counters the action with his own—drawing his blade and holding it across his body protectively.
there's no tension in his body language but he's watching to see what the next move. giyuu hasn't formally met everyone so he doesn't know what to expect from them all. supposedly no one wants to kill one another...
supposedly. ]

[ kara doesn't know this guy, and doesn't particularly care to. he is, however, immediately distracted by the sword, blinking down at it with a slight frown. ]
Blue...?
[ how is the steel blue??? ]

[ he does pull back, after a moment, but he's still squinting dubiously. ]
Nichirin?
Nichirin?
I know demon slaying swords, but none of them absorb sunlight.
[ unless higekiri and hizamaru are solar powered and never mentioned it? ]

[ interesting. kara's curious about this weird ore, but it's not like he knows much about smithing swords. he doesn't even know what his own sword's ore isi? ]
What's its name?
[ he just assumes it has a name ]
What's its name?
[ he just assumes it has a name ]
[ he wants to ask why, but you know? that might welcome the same in turn, and kara isn't planning to tell the world he's a sword. so. he'll drop it, then.
the inscription does catch his eye, but kara dismisses it. probably just the smith's signature, or a carving similar to the dragon on his own blade. so instead of asking, he simply sheaths his sword. ]
I don't trust them when they say there won't be any killing here.
[ by way of explanation for the uh. accidental attack. ]

[ the sword's inscription detailed something about slaying all demons as well as included the mark of the blacksmith that forged it. not that kara saw and now that they're done with it, giyuu will put his sword away back into the scabbard. ]
I don't either.
[ clearly none offense was taken. ]

[ he pauses for a moment, considering something, and then - ]
Did they give you a new ability, too?

So we can assume that all of us do.
[ hmmm. ]
Your power - is it made for battle?
[ hmmm. ]

Sort of. It isn't fire or meteors, though.
[ why does he seem put off by that ]
[ why does he seem put off by that ]
No. Some of them were, but mine was probably the most dangerous. The others... it depended on how they were used.
