Ashling had put off going to the Hospital, distracted Ducky with one of his favorite things - Gainax.
After staying up all night listening to Rant bawl about Camina's death, Ashling was a little vexed. He felt better now, of course, but only because he's attached himself to another character: Unsurprisingly, Viral.
"But how can I be so attached to a BAD guy?!" Rant was glued to the TV, mostly talking to himself.
"It's really, REALLY funny how anywhere other than your fanworld, good and evil don't exist, but here it does..."
Rant whipped around to look at her when he said it: "Shut up, Ashling." his commanding tone did nothing for her and she smirked.
"You know, you need to be more like your Yoko idol.."
"I AM TOO LIKE YOKO!"
"No, you're more like.. Yoko/Kaoru/Niya/Simon/Mamimi... with a hint of Shinji..." He was full smiling, now.
"I am NOT like Shinji! I hate Shinji!" But of course her Rant wasn't paying attention. "Do me next! Me next!" Ashling sighed and thought a moment. Ducky actually paused the anime to listen.
"You're... a lot like Camina.. somewhat like Yoko.. and Viral.. and ...does Chuck Pulhaniuk have an anime character?..if so, then him, and also Haruko. Yeah, a lot like Haruko. And that kid's pervert dad."
"You need to be more like Yoko..." Rant repeated absent-mindedly, having stopped listening a bit ago.
"WHY DO YOU 100% BUY INTO THIS s**t?!"
Ashling took his cigarettes, picked out his infamous pink-I'm-Pissed one, and lit up.
