Shinji:... okay, then?

*looks to the workers, who had over heard the conversation, they all gripe and moan, and begin to pack it up*

Anyways, whats going on, rhythm? You're unusually angry today.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Because I was going to get Tempo and here you are trying to do some stupid "better just recreate what was there" bit. It's like some sort of comedy where as soon as the shop owner leaves on a trip, the assistant tries to take over. It's ludicrous and pointless!

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Shinji: ouch, not cool.

-she's been this way this whole time.

Shinji: really? Odd. She's not normaly this angry, especially over something so small...

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Like you know me.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Shinji: I know you better than he does, and even you know that.
*gestures to drake*

Anyways, this was just a simple, kind gesture. No need to be this serious over something so minor. Save your anger for something in which its needed.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Then at least have some confidence in our friends.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
Shinji:

I do, I was just simply doing my part while they were busy. Usually battles like I saw Tempo in where the original base was take a long time. So, i was setting this one up in the meantime. Not as a sort of knee-jerk action, but as sort of a biding time one.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

We have backups.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
Shinji:
I wasnt made aware, my apologies.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

*Sighs*
I appreciate you wanting to do something kind.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Shinji: thank you.

- *lights another cigar*

Shinji: ...? *raises an eyebrow*

- what, am I not allowed to smoke?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

It'll give you cancer.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

- *shrugs, taking a drag on it*

Shinji: ...?

- ..what?

Shinji: you worry me with your habits.

- why should it, thought you didnt wan't anything to do with my well being, considering you blew me to millions of bits. *blows out smoke*

Shinji: *sighs* I thought we were past this...

- we are, I'm just shocked that you give a damn about me after what i did.

Shinji: we have a common enemy now, less reason to hate you, I suppose.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

...
*Yawns*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
Shinji: ... so, about Tempo?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

What about him?

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>
Shinji:
Weren't you goong to go get him? I mean, if you need help, I'm glad to offer a hand. He seemed to have it covered, though.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

I am.
*Warps to the base*

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Shinji:....
*disappears*
