"Wha-- hey!" Enki's eyes widened as he was suddenly grabbed and lifted up. And then some more, to land on a shoulder. Shōryū did not need to rub it in how much taller than Enki he was. Of course, this way, no matter where he looked (though he was still careful), he had, at least, the top of Shōryū's head in his line of vision. And that, luckily, seemed to be enough for the memory-loss to not kick in.
"Just wait until you find out what memories they've taken from you!" Enki snapped, and then snapped his mouth closed, because Shōryū wasn't stupid, and while he'd obviosuly thought 'they' had simply made Enki kneel, Enki had now, against his resolve, managed to reveal that wasn't it.
Because, unfortunately, Shōryū just wasn't the idiot Enki sometimes would prefer his king to be. Because calling someone an idiot didn't make them so.
