faye feels RESIGNED with the world & itâs harsh climate for taking things from women. her NON-EXISTENT past is an example of that, a question she just wants answers to. â i think the world likes to give us a SLAP of reality so it can keep us in check, no matter how good we are. you should know your place. â the dark haired woman wishes she knew, but for now sheâs just happily traveling with her crew. â men are so LOUSY, they never want to admit when a womanâs right. itâs their egos. weâre better in every way. â she wishes she could drink to that since she doesnât think men were anything but idiots. â at least youâre learning early never to EXPECT anything from anyone. you can only rely on yourself. i didnât learn that until later. â faye takes the moment to LIGHTLY tap the ash watching it float downwards to the tray provided for her. âi can relate, itâs just a MESS. iâm faye.â
asuka wishes she knew what her place is. piloting unit-02 is one thing, but sheâs not foolish enough to believe itâs something that will last forever. sheâs built herself around the evangelion being a constant in her life when thatâs simply not the case at all. so it begs the question: who is asuka without the evangelion ?
â theyâll never have to work twice as hard at something just to be recognised. the world owes them everything. â she pushes her straw around moodily. her lips twist sourly. â men wrote history â men write the world, so of course itâs going to make them look good. it makes me sick. â she shouldnât have to rely on herself. somewhere deep in her heart she knows this like truth, just as she knows that she is the only one who will get herself happiness.
she canât rely on anyone else.
she shifts her gaze to fayeâs face. the world is too cruel to let asuka focus on anyone but herself, but every now and then she gets the quiet reprieve she deserves. â iâm asuka. â
