[Before answering Asuka sighed a bit and shook her head. Why did the brat bother to contact her now after disappearing for so long? It only brought to her head thoughts like those the last time she had met her Shinji back home, a boy who's concern was spotty at best.]
Yeah I'm here. [Asuka yawned.] What the heck do you want?
[Well. Considering he came back from a timeline where he strangles you, it's been quite a challenge to be able to contact you. Especially you. And he kind of wants to talk about it, if she'd let him? About timelines? What was he like in her timeline? He never properly asked her.
Perhaps this time...?
Oh, and Samantha spilled the beans to him that you two are a thing. Shinji will be protective! >:[ ]
I...
wanted to check on you. I'm sorry for being gone for so long. I think the gods put me ni a deep sleep.
Are you alright? I think a bit happened since I was gone.
I've been just fine, no thanks to you. I've moved into a new place with Samantha and things are going pretty well, aside from all the usual crazy things this place throws at us.
[Asuka wasn't going to talk about that little nightmare regarding her mother's death, that would only make Shinji worry even more about her.]
[He'd flinch but he's used to this, by now. Asuka is just being Asuka, regardless if it's not Sohryu.
But that also means he sort of knows how you work, missy. Why you gotta act so tough? 8|
Oh, Asuka. Shinji worries about you, now. How you've been and now how Samantha treats you... (Not that he doesn't trust the half-demon who has helped him, too. But. Still. You're his friend. So of course he'll be a hint protective! )]
Kaworu filled me in, some... I had to ask. I wanted to hear it from you.
....Are you sure? [An intent stare, but it could never be as piercing or sharp as Rei's. That skill belongs to Rei Ayanami.]
Geez, what do I have to say to make you believe me?
[Asuka twitched a bit under Shinji's deep stare.]
Every second I'm not at home fighting NERV feels like a waste! Wile needs me, the crew of the Wunder needs me, but this place I don't care about. As long as I'm able get home a tthe end of the war I could care less about what happens to everyone here.
[Asuka stared back with her one good eye as her tone suddenly become far less depressed sounding then before.]
But I also promised Samantha I'd stick with her till the end and I'd feel like a pretty crappy girlfriend if I didn't keep my word.
[ His lips curled into a slight smile. Well. If you say so... He's just glad you're still here! People disappear from Asgard, these days and it worried him you would be next.
But. It did make him a tinge sad that she still wanted to return. He couldn't blame her. What were they without their evas? What about the obligations they have as chosen pilots? While it's not on the same level as her, he... can sort of understand???]
So you have become attached to someone here.
Sam said you two were... [he tries to think of the word.] a thing.
C-Congratulations. I hope she's treating you well? [A hint of protectiveness! If she isn't, he'll... try to be over protective. But this is a brat and Samantha is a half-demon. You do the math on who will get their ass kicked.]
She did? I should have known that the demon-girl couldn't keep her mouth shut.
[Asuka sighed, recalling the moment months ago when Samantha had asked Shinji for advice regarding their relationship and thus ensuing argument it had caused.]
Samantha is... a bit rough around the edges. But I think that she really understands me. She knows how it feels to have had such a crappy life and doesn't care that I'm going to look like a fourteen year old for the rest of my life.
I honestly never thought I'd find someone like that.
[Especially after how badly her last crush had gone.]
[Now he feels guilty (well. he feels guilty about other things besides that.) for spilling the beans.
But it looked like it turned out well in the end! And he's glad for that. Otherwise, he'd be so worried if it didn't work out. Because now that made him sort of think about what it must feel for her like it felt when Shinji decided to begin to be more intimate with Kaworu...
He gives a knowing smile.]
Can I ask... How it feels, so far? [Does it feel like it's exposing you or prying? It was for Shinji, at first. Relationships, man.]
How does what feel? If you mean just being with Samantha, then its been nice. I guess.
[Otherwise they wouldn't have been dating for nearly a year. Asuka shrugged a bit, all of this seemed obvious to her so explaining it seemed a bit redundant at times.]
She gets me in a way most people don't; and I feel like I can trust her. I don't really have a lot to compare our relationship to though. She's the only person I've ever dated.
