Toushirou wasn't a big fan of psychic links on a purely personal level, but he was nothing if not practical. They provided an advantage and an easy way to co-ordinate. He could live with the situation for a while. Besides, he was accustomed to at least Shindou's version of it to some degree. They'd worked together before, after all.

His blade was on his back; he wasn't drawing it before he needed to, thanks very much. He moved quietly and swiftly, a mark of the training he'd received when he'd been on a proper team. He was more of a fighter than anything despite that training, but he was no slouch at this. In the classes he'd taken? You had to be good or you literally got your ass kicked. Surprise surprise, the latter wasn't very fun.
