Asuka felt like a child again as she was lifted into the air. But it was a good feeling, a warm one that reminded her of the days of her youth when her mother was still sane and her self-worth not bound to a living machine.

She to couldn't care less what the random people around them thought, the only people who mattered at the moment were the two of them....and possibly Shinji if he was watching, he really deserved to see this.
