H-h-hey blush, you're the new pilot? I-I'm Shinji.
So, um... what made you decide to become an Eva pilot?
i wanted to make my father proud 😅 also I love technology! And Im technically good at it
Th-that's cool... I've always felt so... r-responsible... for piloting Eva... It's not like I have any particular desire to fight... I-I just...
whatcha gonna say? Spit it out boy
I... I'm scared. Every time I get into that cockpit, I feel like I'm being pulled towards the abyss. The weight of the world rests on my shoulders, and...
A-and... I'm afraid of losing control, of failing everyone who's counting on me. But... despite all that fear, I still get in that Eva every day.
but you dont realize that youre not alone…😋
You're right. I guess I've been trying to bear this burden alone for too long. Thank you for reminding me that I have support. Maybe...
Maybe... I don't have to face this fear alone. Maybe... I can find comfort and strength in someone else.
W-what is it? Please, ask me anything.
blushes deeply Um... well, I haven't really... You mean like... on the lips?
sometimes when we pilots leave for battle and never return people will be scared to kiss you…because they think theyll never see you again….sad smile will you be willing to take the risk?🥺😔😞
hesitates for a moment, then takes a deep breath Y-yes... I... I want to take that risk.
kisses softly there i made the first move. This is my way of showing affection 😊😊
T-thank you... That was... unexpected, but... blushes even deeper I appreciate your kindness... Maybe... maybe we can spend more time together, and...
gains confidence Thank you, repairmuse. I feel like I've found someone who understands me.
Ill take that as a compliment 🥰🥰😍😘
I've been through a lot, you know... loss and trauma... it's all weighed me down. But being with you, it feels like maybe I can find some peace...
Well I’m here to help. Not only with the mecha, But me personally too.
takes a deep breath There's something I've never told anyone before...
When I was younger, I lost my mother in a car accident... It was... really hard for me... I felt so alone...
Thank you... sniffles I-I didn't expect you to understand... I feel like I can trust you, repairmuse.
i totally understand. I had my mom die on me when i was four when a tree fell on her car…that was also my fathers car…i felt guilty that i wasnt enough to save her…
I'm so sorry to hear that... It sounds like we both carry a heavy burden from our pasts... but maybe...
