Tell me if you're answering the call to go to the transport bay.
There's likely something going on, so if you need weapons, stay armed.
If you discover anything, ensure your safety and let me know.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

No. Not at all.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Ah, yeah. They are a pretty useful weapon to have. I'm sorry I can't really help much.

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

What do you use as a weapon then, Zuko-san?

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

...Should I answer it?

[embattle]

[Poor Ikari-bird.]

FROM: hibari.kyoya@cdc.org
Get used to it, then.

[barbettes]

If you want to.

[hotman]

FROM: zuko@cdc.org

It's okay. I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. Not that I think it would do me much good. Nothing's better than my bending.

FROM: zuko@cdc.org

I have my dual dao swords. How do you fight in the giant robot, then? Do you use weapons?

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

Hey, are you awake?

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Yes.

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

Me too. Hi. How do you feel?

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Nervous.

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

It might be scary, but I'll be waiting for you when you're finished. All you have to do is make it through.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

What if I fail? What if it kills me?

[paraclete]

[Don't say that.]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

I'll be waiting for you when you're finished, Shinji-kun.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

What if I don't finish?

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

I'll be waiting for you when you're finished.

[He wants to say something helpful, and regrets that he can't, but — this is going to make him panic. Breathing feels uncomfortable right now. If he could at least be there during the training — but all he can do is wait.

As ever.]

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Okay.

[paraclete]

[Of course Shinji will make it through. Of course he will. Because if he doesn't, there's nothing else left.

...

...]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

And I'll come see you when I'm done with mine.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

I don't want to fail.

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

When we're both through, let's go to the observation deck and watch the stars. Because we're moving, they're always changing, so we'll see things we haven't before.

[He says this like there isn't danger afoot, but he might be wheedling.]

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Will it be safe to?

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

We're safer together than alone.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

I don't think I'll want to be alone after it. It's going to be terrible.

[paraclete]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

I won't want you to be alone, either.

[And, honestly, neither will he want to be by himself. But there's really no need to say that.]

FROM: nagisa.kaworu@cdc.org

Whatever you need, all right? The stars, my hand, something to drink.

[forevalone]

FROM: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

You give me so much, Kaworu-kun...
