Why would he? It was in his nature, even if he knew that Yang was fully capable as a fighter and a warrior, he couldn’t help his protective nature at times. Rather he take a blow than the ones he cared about, not wanting them to be hurt in such a manner. Better him than them in his opinion. What was one more scar on his body anyway? He had plenty of real estate to spare still.
“Maybe I’m just a masochist like that?”
Even with a deep gash running along his stomach, blood escaping past fingers pressed against it and applying pressure, he was still smiling and joking. God, that was a good slash. Burn and hurt like hell, but he pushed through that pain like always. Still standing and still ready to fight if necessary. Even with his vision blurring at the edges.
Focus. Breath. 
Steady even breaths. Ignore the pain. Stay alert and stay sharp.
“You okay?”
Ryoma asked, giving a soft and worried look to the other. Concerned for her well-being rather than his own in the moment, wanting to make sure she was alright. The irony of that all things considered, but his safety was always second to those he cared about. Reckless as that was and had been told.
