[It's not just the amount of trust the girl shows that's odd; the feeling from Ankh isn't the disregard for a victim that Eiji might have come to expect. Instead he's young and stupid and sure he's doing something helpful. Granting a wish.
It's a memory he's already forgotten, so it's just as well that any questions Eiji might have about it don't reach him right now.
As Ankh sprouts wings and takes off from the balcony, the fox returns to Eiji for another brief connection, almost as if it's intentional this time.
It's brief again, and straightforward. This memory is from earlier today, and there's nothing different aside from having access to a few stray thoughts. About how even if Eiji doesn't say it, Ankh knows this is the present he insisted on getting for his birthday. How he thinks the comment about it being on clearance is odd until it's something obviously expensive and he wonders if Eiji guessed that Ankh might yell at him for wasting money on something like that. And how as he looks at it, he likes it despite himself, and he can't help wondering when Eiji developed a sense of taste.
Aside from the feeling of dizziness that could just as easily have been left over from before, Ankh is unaware of any of this. The necklace, for the moment, lies forgotten in the chair.]
