[Asuka squirmed a little at the touch of Samantha's feet against her bare skin, but that could only last so long, as her hunger so overrode any discomfort that stimulation provided her.]
Oh good, I'm starving. It's been forever since I've had a decent meal.
[The plates were set before them as she slipped her foot away and looked down at it all. It was definitely one big slab of red meat in front of her, with only the minimal trimmings. She sniffed and reached for the steak sauce, adding an inappropriate amount and nodding in thanks to the server.]
Pretty hungry too. I get enough meat, but it never hurts to have a good steak.
[With a large plate of something resembling pasta covered in red sauce now set in front of her, Asuka politely nodded to their server and took a small bite of the concoction before smiling briefly.
Good food had been something of a rarity for Asuka since she had come to Asgard, so anything more then the provisions she kept in her apartment was something of a treat.]
This is actually really good! I wasn't sure what to expect when you first mentioned this play to me. But they actually managed to make something that almost tastes like the food I'd get back home.
[She'd say more, something about that massive steak or the copious amount of sauce Samantha had slathered on it. But Asuka had been around Samantha long enough to know that it would just lead to some comparison between her and the steak.]
You know... [Asuka took another bite before continuing.] I don't think I ever ate out like this back home. If I ever did go out it was always some kind of work thing and that meant dragging along that brat and Ayanami. It was so annoying eating out with those two! One of them was to shy to even talk over dinner, and the Ayanami always made a big stink about where we went because little miss perfect couldn't eat meat.
[She chewed easily enough, laughing some at the comments and nodding.] I'm sorry, but I can't imagine him on a date like this. He'd be fumbling around or making a total ass out of himself more than either of us or both combined.
And trust me, you'll never see me pretend to be a vegetarian. I couldn't actually live that way. Why was she like that?
I don't know, really. We were never really good friends or anything like that so I never bothered to ask. It might have something to do with the fact that she's a clone or something like that.
[Asuka took another bite, she was surprisingly casual despite the odd nature of what they were discussing.]
A... clone? [That word seemed to set her off a little, frowning in reaction to that. She had a little experience with genetic manipulation and cloning techniques.]
You know, every once in a while, it's just the casual way you drop little bombshells like that that reminds me your world's as messed up as it is. You're... a resilient girl.
Yeah, I don't know all the details but there was supposedly a bunch of her at one point.
[Her whole live had been made up of secrets, half-truths, and conspiracies, it was only natural that this sort of thing would come as relatively normal.]
I've survived the end of the world, of course I'm tough.
Wish I could say with all my insanity that I did too, but just crazies who were trying to take over the whole place. Never quite that bad. [She took a bite, chewed and swallowed thoughtfully.]
Exactly. That's why we've got to win this war so I can go home and win another one.
[The fight against NERV was actually in a pretty dire state of affairs, but that wouldn't stop Asuka from feeling like she could single handedly save the world all by her lonesome.]
I'll miss you when I go home, I know that much though.
[Asuka looked a bit down, she really hadn't thought all that much how she'd feel when she was finally separated from everything she had experienced in Asgard.
But then again, she still had pasta. Who could be sad when their mouth was full of noodles and sauce?
After taking another large bite of her meal, drowning the bad thoughts in a deep haze of red, Asuka finally manged to say something on the subject. ]
There is still a lot I'd like to do before I go back home.
[She thought for a moment, resting her weary head on the palm of her hand as prospects both fun and embarrassing whirled about in her mind.]
I'm sure I'll think of something eventually, but I do know that I'd like to punch a certain angel once or twice for sure.
What do you really want to do while you're here, besides just punching angels and kicking old idiot friends' asses? There's only so many possibilities around here after all.
[She was smirking as she said it, putting negative thoughts out of her mind. Another bite and she settled back, pausing to think for a second.]
Don't tell me you're planning to punch demons too?
I've already done a lot of things I missed out on when I was a kid, but I'd really like to experience autumn just once. It's the only season I haven't seen since I got here.
[Winter had been mildly amusing, then terrible when it came for a second time in the middle of summer, spring pleasant, and summer a familiar experience. For the sake of her own curiosity, Asuka wondered where autumn fell on the scale of pleasant to terrible.]
You'd better not! I've had enough of people I've liked pissing me off for one lifetime.
[Asuka took another bite of her meal in an angry manner, recalling in her mind a particular person who she very much would have to liked to punch, had she been given the chance.]
There anything you want to do while your still here?
[Asuka spoke as she gently wiped some red sauce from her mouth.]
[Asuka grinned, not only because it would mean the end of this stupid war, but also that it would be sort of sexy to see Samantha ending a giant's life with the sharpened point of her boot.]
I dream big, and I plot big. [She closed her eyes and took another bite while that image nestled in Asuka's head. Swallowing, she smirked.] Besides, he's got it coming twelve times over. It's a toss-up which I hate more, but he's gotten pretty personal over the year.
What can I say? I've always had a thing for hard nuts to crack. The nut tastes better if you have to work for it, after all. [Understatement of the century.] And don't worry about that. I'm doing everything I can to get the chance.
[Asuka nodded in agreement as she finished the last of her pasta with a loud slurp.]
So where did you want to go when we're done here? I still want to show you my eye, but I also don't really anyone else to see it either... so my place maybe?
That depends on how long you want to stay. [She looked up from her steak quietly for a second. Funny, her tail might have been winding its way around someone's ankle again.] I can only really be at your place for an hour or two before it feels like Baldr's staring at my back.

[Even as she said that, though, she caught a whiff of something and smiled a little more broadly, her foot slipping down the calf and back.]
Or I think our dinner's about ready.
