'Belief and Betrayal' (Liveman, Jou/Gou, rated G)
Title: Belief and Betrayal Fandom: Choujuu Sentai Liveman Characters/Pairing: Oohara Jou/Omura Gou Summary:Spoilers for up to episode three. I've been in love with this pairing since I first saw the series, but now that it's being subbed I can write it without feeling bad about writing fic for I show where I have no idea what they're saying ninety percent of the time. :) Drabble.
Jou doesn’t think he’ll ever truly believe it.
He remembers Academia and the rumors about Gou-- and thinking that they were a bunch of bull. Yes, Gou could be aloof. Yes, he was a workaholic... but Jou knew there was more to him than that. Because he also remembers Gou nearly drowning himself to save a puppy of all things, the night Gou talked more than he had in any of their classes... and the shy, hesitant smiles he got sometimes after that night.
So even after what he’d done, Jou felt more like he was still watching Gou gasping for air instead of fighting him... and that if he tried, he could save him.
But after seeing the monster Gou’s become, he doesn’t know what to believe anymore.
