Reaching out to say, 'I trust him, too.'
Eva murmured quietly to herself as she secured her grip; ]
You too, huh...
[Then, to Hijikata: ]
Ready!
[And the confidence paid off, the sword slipping out easily and dissolving into light before them! The relief in her voice- a rare vulnerability- was palpable.]
It worked...! Ha... look, it worked- wait, which one of us did it go into??
