[kaworu seems happy today -- more so than normal, and a great distance from his melancholy the last time he'd posted to the network.]

What sort of sweets does everyone here like? Or types of cookies? I have a friend who is teaching me how to cook, but I do not have much experience with what others enjoy most...

[he mostly wants yako and mello's answers, but being that specific would ruin the surprise so it's simpler to leave things vague for now.]

[filtered to takuto]

You can come over whenever you want now, if you would still like.

[filtered to shinji]

[his tone and expression soften and he gives the little mirror a gentle smile, somehow different from the sort he shows everyone else. as much as he loved all his friends here, he hadn't really considered the difference until he could once more see shinji.]

Are you ready?

I admire the strength it takes to move on. Fragility is only a sign of it.

Fragility is also the sign of a person on the brink of a breakdown and waiting for the right trigger.

{And no amount of self-control could keep the self-loathing out of that statement.}

Would you prefer pity over admiration and sympathy?

I'm not the one who you should talk to this about. In my own case...well, I'm not exactly my own biggest fan, anyway.

I know what he needs, and it is not pity.

Nobody needs or wants pity, if they still have hope. But...

{She rubs her face, even more tired-looking.}

...maybe we should not talk to each other for a while. At this rate I'll just end up talking about the man who killed my father, instead of the actual situation.

...Alright.

[he might have to send takuto after you later, though.]

{Considering she looks like she want to go curl up for a good cry, that might be a solid idea.}

...I hope he can be happy here, even if he loses that fragility.
