mortal_son: Shinji explaining some words of wisdom. (how it is)

Nah, he gets it. This wasn’t his life - and they’re strangers. Why not eat some popcorn while Shinjiro made the biggest fuckup ever, it’s all good.

(It really wasn’t good, but like most things in his life, he’s powerless to stop it. Lashing out at Toge would be pointless, and he’d only feel worse after.)

“They all … so even more beyond the two guys you talked about?” Shinjiro asked before shrugging. “Not that it’s any of my business.”

A brief pause. Talking about this might be better than what came up in this movie, though, even if it felt gossipy and intrusive. “But … I know for some people it makes it easier, having people you can trust to watch your back in a strange place like this.”

(On the screen, the actor for Akihiko’s getting scouted by someone who does look eerily like a young Kirijo. Her wig was perfect. Next they’re going to show his lookalike stubbornly tagging along, insisting on fighting next to his friend.

Shinjiro would make all the small talk in the world to ignore all of this replaying.)
