[Her hands immediately go for his really, really slim shoulders and hold on for her dear life. (Even if they seem incredibly fragile, too fragile to place any weight on.)
For a slit second, Koharu sees them both sprawled out on the floor, necks broken or ankles twisted or accidentally stabbed somehow. Or broken and chipped and injured and she's rather not see Hotarumaru in that state--
But then Hotarumaru has found his balance and he looks so proud of his accomplishment that any and all thought of ending up on the dojo floor disappears. He really is stronger than he seems and once Koharu is not gripping his shoulders tightly anymore, she reaches up to pat his head.]
It's because you've become so much stronger than I seem light.
