Title: Standstill
Fandom: Kamen Rider OOO
Character: Eiji
Rating: G
Summary: In the end, they were still neither here nor there. Eiji wondered.

-------------------------------

So that was it, what really happened in the past? Was that why Ankh has always been that wary whenever he had pushed for the use of combos during his past battles? He used to think that maybe... in that twisted logic of that person, that perhaps Ankh could have cared for his well-being at some point—at least as OOO. But would that all be because of this, that somehow Ankh feared the same thing to happen to him as this 'king' had? Was he that untrustworthy? It took him to be in this kind of state to finally force Ankh's hand to reveal his secrets. After all that happened, is that not enough already? Ankh was so cold...!

Still...

What if that was not his only reason? What if the reason is because Ankh was afraid to risk placing too much trust on him should the same thing happen again? Based on the story, it should mean that the earlier OOO... the king, was a human. Could that be the reason why he would not allow himself much trust in him? Ankh had said it before that between his own comrades and human race, he rather sided with the humans but he never said that he trusted humans more. The way he had worded it then sounded like he was choosing the lesser of the two evils. And why should that be?

Ah! Eiji shook his head as he groaned. Such a difficult creature to understand!

He entered his room to find Ankh already asleep. Well, after the day's ordeal it should not be too surprising if he was all tired out. They almost lost him today after all...

For someone so wary as this guy to be sleeping so peacefully, it must mean that at some point Ankh did trust him to some kind of degree... right? Isn't that an irony in itself? Eiji sighed as he continued staring towards the vulnerable sleeping figure.

Silly Ankh. You really should have been more honest to the people around you. It's hard to figure out what you're thinking with you acting and saying totally different things.
