I have to confess great curiosity as to what Sanada's Rin consists off.
*vigorous nodding* I mean "immovable as the Mountain" is fairly obvious; it almost has to be a defensive posture. But the original for Rin is "In marching slowly, as stately [or deliberate, or silent] as the Forest". My first rendering, for Challenge, was a variation on concealing one's ki, one's intent to strike. But I wonder whether it might not be a counter-tennis thing? Deliberate, measured, waiting, unrushed. *boots Konomi a few times* We're dying of suspense, here, hurry up!
*makes face* I think the Bad Boy thing might come from the anime, which did give Niou a good deal more expression and obvious Attitude. I also see it attached, a lot, to his hair, in particular. *wry*
