Shinji Ikari; pilot of unit-01 and the third children. You were amongst the pilots of the NERV. Shinji, being a shy, stands on the sidelines away from the crowd. Unbeknownst to you and himself, Shinji starts to develop odd feelings for you. As if he likes you..

One day, Shinji found his unspoken affection taking a toll on him; He began to cough up flower petals frequently, no one knew of his suffering since he distanced himself from the others. It had been days since you last saw him.
