Oh, man, no one took this one! Cool. Cool cool cool.

I thought about this for a minute, and I'm still not sure who I'd pick to reward/punish with Ankh's "assistance". I haven't watched nearly enough shows (so many of these responses are way over my head, but good on y'all for coming up with what sound like awesome pairings), so I don't have a lot of Primary Riders from which to choose. I circled around a few choices. I thought about Double, for the fun of having Two Dads try and wrangle Ankh, the cool and collected one getting just as nowhere as the half-boiled one. I thought about Ex-Aid, switching out Parado's puppy-like Let's Have Fun for Ankh's cat-like aloofness and general prickishness. Tough decision, for real.

So I went with Drive, which is the best/worst of both worlds, saddling the Chaotic Neutral Ankh with a Lawful Good dude like Shinnosuke. Drive's out there trying to save the city, constantly having to split his focus to monitor for whatever weird probably-illegal thing Ankh is up to. Meanwhile, Ankh is trying to get his medals back, thwarted constantly by Drive's weird insistence on "obeying" "rules" (those words definitely sound made up). Both of them frustrated by the other's worldview, but just maybe, they'd learn to see the value of each other's point of NAH COME ON they would never stop annoying one another Japan is doomed.
