I'll admit my world kind of sucks, and there probably isn't anyway to fix it either. But I'll still keep on fighting to make sure things don't get any worse then they already are, and I'll probably do the same thing here.
[She takes a long drink before managing to sweep away all the talk of war and other unpleasant things.]
But hey, let's forget about all that stuff and just have fun for awhile.
Agreed. [She smirked at her at that. They'd said enough on that subject anyway.] So, alright then, I'll save asking you about the eyepatch for another day. What do you do for fun, when you're not saving the world?
Well, whenever you want to hear the story, I'll be willing to tell it.
[She takes another drink]
There really isn't a lot to do when I'm not out on a mission. I tend to just sit around, play cards on occasion, and sometimes I hang out with another pilot in my group named Mari. She's sort of a weirdo, and even calls me Princess constantly, though. So I avoid hanging around her to often.
I'll probably do that. Maybe tell you how I lost my wings same day, heh.
[She laughed sadly.]
God, you must have been getting kind of lonely. No wonder Shinji always seems like a bit of a closet case, if you really don't have that many people to hang out with. Well, alright then. I guess I must have a habit of attracting people who don't get out enough.
Shinji was always been sort of a dork, he wasn't good with people and had trouble expressing himself.
[Much like Asuka herself, but she wasn't going to ever admit that.]
In my case it's less I need to get out and more that most of the human race is dead and buried where I'm from. There's just not a lot of people left to talk to.
That's putting it mildly. He makes Kaworu look easy to deal with sometimes. We don't talk much, honestly.
[She shook her head and took a sip from her drink as the two of them were plopped down in front of the girls.]
Honestly, I sometimes wonder if my world's going to end up going the same way. There's people there who seem hell bent on wrecking the joint over and over again. It gets old kicking asses and protecting people from themselves.
I don't blame you. I had a rough enough time dealing with him back home.
I know the feeling. [She sighs]. I don't understand the mentality of people who want to destroy everything. They must be mentally defective or something.
[She snorted.] The ones I actually bothered to speak to were either really greedy or hell bent on saying 'this is mine, not yours.' A few of the ones I saw were just sick in the head, I think.
So, how's the pay in saving the world in your place? Shitty as mine?
Non-existent, not that there is a lot to left to buy or anything like that. But I have a place to live, food to eat, and clothes to wear, so I really can't complain to much.
You know. [sip] I think that's just how it works with saving the world. The best you're likely to get is a roof over your head, a pat on the back and a 'job well done.' It's not something you get rich doing.
But who really knows, But I'd still like to have a plan just in case the war back home actually does end. Maybe I'll write down all the crazy stuff that happened to me or something.
Yeah, well... I can't, so I don't suppose it would work for me either. [She snickered] Memoires though? Sure, I suppose that wouldn't be so bad. I'll probably spare the world my life's story. It gets kind of messy at points.
Here, though, I'm hoping we'll actually manage to get at least a little down time after it's done.
Well, you can at least get some rest here between the fights. It's actually pretty quiet from time to time. [She shrugged.] And I'm guessing there's a lot more people here than you're used to being around.
Yeah, I haven't seen this many people together in one place in over a decade. In a lot of ways it's nice, but it is going to take some getting used to.

You need to go to Folkvang one of these days.

That does sound nice though. I'll have to check it out when I have time.
