00 | ACCIDENTAL VOICE / VIDEO

[yourmother.livejournal.com]

I am alive. I am myself. Why?

[Rustling. Slow, measured.]

I have never worn this clothing. I have never seen these forms of plant life. It is unfamiliar, but not unpleasant. Am I meant to remain here?

[The girl's voice is soft and slightly monotone, and though it becomes even quieter now, her tone doesn't change at all.]

Ikari... is this...

[She must have made some sort of subtle gesture again, brushed against the Vine as she got up to walk, because out pops that mirror to reveal the speaker abruptly turning her head in its direction. It would be perfectly normal for her to react with visible fear or anger right about here, but that's not happening. All you get is one blink, two blinks, silence, followed by the slightest narrowing of eyes.]

Who are you.

[ooc | doot doot doot i'm gonna crash into bed shortly but just wanted to get this posted, so heads-up.]

You may not recall what happened.

[oh yeah IT'S ON. her eyes widen when she hears rei's response. oh no. hikari's mind is screaming to get away from this conversation, run away from anything that makes the Third Impact reality. but she can't do anything but respond.]

... I-I, um... what should I recall?

[sob, Hikari, you know this is a losing battle. SAVE YOURSELF. and while Rei knows, somewhere, that it was a reality many won't care to accept, she can do nothing but respond right back:]

Third Impact.

[she's trying to! and failing horribly. those two words- that term - spoken by rei, shuts everything off. the memories come rushing back into her head again, full force. she looks almost as blank as rei. almost. /burn]

... The Angels?

[oh snap]

... Yes.

[a little bit more complicated than that, really, but she's never been one to spill the details without cause.]

[ah man its probably good for now she doesnt know ikari decided that fate for the world. at the beginning, anyway.]

Oh... T-Thank you for telling me. [her head is now tilted down, and she's trying really hard not to cry. the sound of sobs show she isn't succeeding that well.]

[and she'll never hear that bit out of rei, at least. must protect her not!son!

but now awkward time is go. blink blink.]

I'm... sorry. I am unsure of what more to say in these situations. [ineffective words, ones of regret that can change nothing, but ones she should convey all the same, right? DEJA VU]

[you go not!mom! though hikari is not as happy as that. as polite as she is, finding out everyone died... puts her in a not-good state. she chokes out what she says next.]

There's nothing more to say, Ayanami-san. Noth-ing.
