[It was a general question, the sort one asks when making small talk. Reisi didn't have to mention the fight, and yet he did. He opened this can of worms that he doesn't really want to talk about, but he'll honestly answer any questions about it if they come up. Perhaps he'd have to mention that he'd started it by carelessly offering to indulge the god, and that resulted in others having to evacuate the premises...
However, Tatara winds up asking a question that Reisi hadn't really expected or even considered answering. There's another brief silence as a thoughtful look sweeps away the irritation in his features, though his hands continue their work without interruption.]
...Not in any serious capacity.
[Reisi wouldn't consider Suoh his equal otherwise. In any normal battle, Reisi could easily come out unscathed. But Suoh was a challenge, one that Reisi took quite seriously. It's only natural to have received some physical damage dealing with him, but nothing he couldn't easily recover from.
With a slight frown,] Though I suppose I should've seen it coming. I'm the one responsible, after all. I was unusually careless.
[...It's actually quite a painful admission, now that he's mentioned it. But given his lingering thoughts on the matter and how he continues to mentally review their battle over and over, it's also a relief. Reisi feels like he's somehow conveyed all the information that Tatara needs to know about it without going into its overly frustrating specifics.]
