So just when Sanosuke had gotten used to the motion enough to be ready to let go of the squishy thing--and just when he was starting to realize what the squishy thing actually was--Yuffie began to freak out. Sano didn't even have time to apologize or move his hands himself before she was a bunch of limbs flailing all over the place.

Including right at his head.

Sano didn't quite manage to dodge, or even to get a chance to try. One minute he was fucked up from the bus, and the next he was falling back after being kicked in the damn jaw pretty damn hard. If he wasn't who he was, the kick might have knocked him out. But Sanosuke had some damn good endurance, along with a pretty short temper.

"What the hell was that for?!" Despite the motion, Sanosuke managed to pull himself up, leaning close to glare at Yuffie. "It's not like I meant to grab you there! You didn't even give me enough time to say I was sorry!"

Which was about the best way he had to say it just then. Sanosuke, for his casual attitude, was about as flustered as Yuffie by it, except his cheeks weren't quite as red.

His chin sure as hell was bruised though.
