Yuka smiled as she poured Juri's tea.

On the face of it, someone might call their fight rather disappointing - the younger girl had obviously been unprepared for an opponent who could fly, and Master Spark had taken her completely by surprise.

Yuka thought otherwise. Even in the face of those shocks, Juri had wielded her blade with authority - and far more skill than Yuka could claim with the one she was using. The outcome may not have been in doubt, but she'd made Yuka work for it. Given more experience with the unusual, Juri would be formidable.

Yuka was looking forward to it.

Once she'd poured cups for Cirno and herself, she stowed her thermos and sat down. She didn't say anything yet though. Juri had the look of someone with questions, so she'd wait for them.

Juri was not very happy with herself at the moment. How could she have been so thoroughly unprepared? She'd been so confident in her own abilities, and then... She would have to watch some more battles before she tried fighting again, just to see what else those upgrades could do—and she probably should choose her opponents more wisely. But she tried not to let her irritation show on her face as she sipped her tea (which, she had to admit, was rather nice tea).

"You've fought a lot of these duels, haven't you?" Yuka had been noticeably awkward with the sword she'd been wielding, but the sharp eyes and quick reflexes that had allowed her to evade Juri's attacks suggested that she was no stranger to combat in general. It hadn't just been the lasers that had allowed her to win.
