[Hey, that's okay. Hijikata has definitely looked more undignified in public before. Nevertheless he holds Mickey at swordpoint to keep him from reaching for his weapon. He'll ease up in a moment, he just wants to finish the duel properly - after all Mickey was keen on it being an earnest fight.]
Well done. You gave me quite the challenge here.
[The applause is relatively modest, but Hijikata doesn't mind. He isn't here to be the audience's favourite. If Mickey doesn't attempt any stunts like breaking away to get to his rapier or such he'll sheathe his sword and offer him a hand to help him up.]
