Kaori chirped, "...said randomer then proceeded to put him in his place," she continued, tapping the tip of her boot against the wooden floor. Oh that painful moment for poor Yomi...

Surely his new Samurai status means he's put all of this behind him?" he said mostly to Yomi, ...and kind of trying to take everyone's minds off of magic. At least Kasumi was already doing a good job of that! Little did he know, Kaori for one intended to hound him for answers once this business with the Shogun was over. She wanted to keep herself sharp, ...and very much far sharper than her partner. Yomi being stronger would just piss her off to no end.
