you know, it's kind of funny.
The first day I woke up here, they were serving heart-shaped pancakes.
and now, after my little forced vacation, what's the first thing I see?
the same ridiculous, twee pancakes.
happy anniversary to me, I guess.
I'd say try harder next year, but I guess that won't be an issue anymore.

FYI, anyone still hanging onto the hope that your home is really okay? don't bother.
and the people crowing about how they're going to "fix our dead worlds" sure as hell better, since I'm in no hurry to go back to THAT.
I was so bored I thought I'd go insane.
I hate to think about how the rest of you bleeding hearts would fair.
sheesh, just THINKING about how pathetic it'd be is making me cringe.

[Since it's not like he was bothered or anything!!!]

[Shinji can also be found skulking around the libraries and the media room, should anyone want to stumble across him in person.]

Comments

[Shinji stays quiet as Suzaku relates what transpired, not piping up with his own commentary. Once he has finished, Shinji remains silent for another few seconds, then comments:]

So I take it you were one of the ones that agreed to that, huh.

[It isn't spoken like a question, Shinji carefully keeping his tone neutral.]

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku nodded] I was. If I vanish into thin air over the next few days don't be alarmed, it seems to be a side affect of whatever happened.

[looselips]

—Don't be alarmed? Are you kidding me? [His tone snaps back to heated.] Look, I'm not going to berate you for volunteering or whatever else, since I guess some of us have to be martyr enough to stick their necks out like that. But don't be so casual about side effects.

[swordofzero]

[Suzaku blinks at him] I'm not being casual [Yes he is] I'm just warning you. So far I have always returned within less than an hour or so.

[looselips]

That's not the point! [Shinji gesticulates as he talks, hand swinging in front of himself in a sharp motion.] The point is— If there are side effects at all, there could have been serious complications. So don't just say there were side effects like it's no big deal.

[swordofzero]

Alright [He frowned] I'm sorry. [This kid was hard to deal with]
