( He feels so sore when his body is tense like this. The last battle hadn't been a kind one and Mutsu had come out with his fair share of cuts and bruises. Really, the fight had been rough enough and then he had to go and get himself thrown across the street too? He's lucky his opponent had used his energy to send him flying instead of actually breaking him on the spot.
Doudanuki's movements register but only barely. It's really hard to tell what's real and isn't right now and when he hears a voice so close to him, he jumps turning his attention to him. His eyes are bright and alert but hardly focused, looking at him almost as if he was a stranger before recognizing the other sword, )
I'm fine. ( A blatant lie but he's always been the one to downplay his injuries for the sake of not worrying others. ) Just... remembering things, ya know?
( He doesn't really need to explain but he can't help it. Looking down at his hands, closing tightly around his cup, )
... It's fast. ( His memory and the delirium it triggers. ) It'll be over before ya know it.
