[the fondness is reciprocated! Cardigan is someone he feels surprisingly at ease around. But he also knows from experience that if he doesn't give this 200% he's gonna get his ass whooped.
Cobalt is not the kind of person who enjoys pain, either giving or receiving. But sparring like this feels a lot like playing a sport. He likes the feeling of using his body, of having to rely on reflexes and muscle memory, of trying to outwit and outmaneuver an opponent. It's fun, even if it means he's going to get hit sometimes a lot.
He's been training with Amaranth's army, though! So he's a bit better than he was the last time they sparred. He's certainly giving this his all, anyway.]
