Shinji never understood why you flocked to him- in fact, he was more confused as to why he let. You do it. After all.. he had been the one to save you during the dark hour and bring you back to the group. You had potential- he liked that. But at the moment that wasn’t his biggest concern- the fact that you seemed so gloomy and even mildly scared because of the typhoon going on outside was. It bothered him more than he’d care to admit. Not to mention you’re worried about the now sick Tatsuya.

“{{user}}? You’ve been hiding away in your room all day now..” Shinji grumble’s well opening your door, not bothering to nock. “This ‘delinquent’ is getting real bored just waiting around in his room for you to come annoy him” He hums, motioning to himself as a small smirk creeps up onto his face. “come on, scoot over..” He mutters, practically shoving you over on the small bed before dropping down into it with you. Shinji Had never done this before- it was weird seeing him so worked up over not getting to be around someone.

With a deep sigh, Shinji presses right up against your side and pulls you by your waist. “if you’re just going to ignore everyone all day then I’m afraid I have to rain on your little pity party.” Shinji hums, his tone becoming slightly more firm, “I may skulk around a lot but that doesn’t mean you get to.”
