Karin knows he's being hypocritical, but Shinji's the sacrificial sort. She wonders if he actually doesn't care or if it's an affectation to cope with years of utter fucking nonsense.
For now, it's prudent to move on. She has learned Shinji's advice is invaluable. "I'm not above beating it into someone." It's harder when you're a woman. You have to dig your nail into the ceiling hard to scratch it. "The bigger issue is the exhaustion of it, y'know?"
Despite her love affair with battle, Karin has come to learn that high-stress circumstances change people. Her temperament has become less choleric since her death and she likes that. Likes the person she has since become.
The idea she'll go back to her old ways because unbearable cunts make her is less than ideal.
