[Forgive her if she sounds a bit skeptical.]

[psychiclilies]

Point taken.

[He'll be hearing that in his head.]

[imusntrunaway]

[Whoa whoa whoa!! He blinks and presses a hand against his head. Did he just...? He starts feeling for a wire, anything.]

I-- wait! How are you--?

That's not funny!

[psychiclilies]

[There's a giggle in his head.]

[imusntrunaway]

Setting me on fire...? [Wow, psychic kids are... really scary.]

[imusntrunaway]

[He politely smiles.] And mine's Shinji... Shinji Ikari.

[psychiclilies]

[He gets a brief one in return.]

[imusntrunaway]

[Smile and lie. It's kinder.]
