[Again, Yukimura shows no sign of transformation, not even the the slightest flicker. A frustrated sigh escapes Mitsunari, shaking his head at Yukimura's effort.]

You are not getting it. Try it again, clear your mind - you are still too distracted. Should you continue on in this manner, I may be forced to respond with more drastic means.

Ishida-dono--!!

[ He really doesn't know what he's doing wrong. The way Mitsunari addresses him isn't unusual but it's no less upsetting because he doesn't want to fail in this. He needs to do this if he's going to accomplish anything - but he can't make his mind any clearer than it is. ]

How am I to do such a thing?! I am focusing my all into this!!

[reverencing]

[When Mitsunari claimed a need for drastic measures, he was playing around. Something was still preventing Yukimura's focus, whether he realized it or not - and to Mitsunari, there was only one means of getting past such a mental barrier.

Without another moment of warning, Mitsunari lunges at Yukimura and fiercely slashes at the man's stomach with his arm and as that motion begins, what was once flesh and bone transfigures itself into raw steel, the end of a long and powerful blade.]

[uninscribed]

[ Yukimura's breath catches in his throat when Mitsunari's arm flashes into metal. He wants to will himself into another form, any form, just to satisfy the man's requirements but he doesn't have the time to do anything but throw himself back with barely a thought. He ends up sprawled on his back on the ground, anger rising at the thought of being attacked by an ally, even for this important purpose! ]

I-- Ishida-dono!

[reverencing]

[As Yukimura falls back, Mitsunari lunges once more and drops to his knees, looming above Yukimura. It's sudden and it's abrupt, unceremonious and harsh. If Yukimura cannot visualize himself as his weapon and cannot will himself into transformation, Mitsunari will have to force him into it. He himself struggled with transforming for a long while, until his very life dangled in delicate balance. He has reason to suspect that Yukimura may be the same. Arm returning to normal, he grabs hold of Yukimura's jacket and jerks him forward, teeth grit together fiercely, bared-]

If you wish to survive, you will fight back-! Face me, Yukimura!
