To switch, or not to switch?

Why is it called a Switch anyway? It's obviously a button.

To press, then, or not to press? That is the question.

"He wants us to think he's an evolved human. I'd place a guess on never, myself. Audience participation is always fun," I say, with just enough hint of a smile to grate on his nerves.

He's not going to give up Leo. I think our esteemed school chairman will have a struggle to wrench it from his claws.

He is obnoxious with his obsession with theatrics. Still, at least the jokes are better than Maki's constant insistence on the end.

"I don't suppose it matters, in the end." I shrug one shoulder, and try not to let on how annoyed I am at the idea that I will be perpetually fighting to hold the form I belong in.

"And where do you stand? Do you really have so little care for your own existence?"

"What are any of us worth? All the world's a stage. I just don't see why I have to be bored while I wait in the wings." I'm not stupid enough to get sent to the Dark Nebula, or to be defeated by one of our friendly neighbourhood Kamen Riders. I'm also not naïve enough to think I'm indispensable.

"I like to think I'm worth more than I seem." I shrug. "I don't intend to stand in the wings, but I'm not particularly fond of being a prop either."

I pace a bit more. "So you have no intention of defending yourself, should this commander of yours decide to sacrifice you?"

"Of course. Survival of the fittest. He took that risk when he brought the Switches to earth." Age and treachery may triumph over youth and enthusiasm, but what about youth and enthusiasm and treachery?

Well, at least he's not a complete idiot.

"Good. I think we're on the same side, then." I smirk and even offer him a little bow.

I can spare a smile at that, "perhaps we are." In exchange for this little show of faith, I won't tell anyone where the Ursa Major switch went. Wouldn't have anyway. It's more interesting to let them work it out for themselves.

"Good." Not that he's particularly high on my list of priorities. I do have the family to look out for, after all, the pride.

But I'd certainly rather have him fight beside me than against me, if such an event should arise.

I consider shaking his head, but I think he'd just laugh at the offer.
