“Shinji, what’s dancing?”
“Well, it’s when you move your body in time to music, I suppose.”
“You always have music Shinji! Could you teach me?”
“Um, well, I don’t think I’m a good enough dancer to teach you... I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay Shinji. Perhaps some other time.”
…
“Shinji, what’s Salsa?”
“Which one do you mean?”
“There’s more than one type? Please tell me about them all!”
“Well, Salsa can be a type of sauce, or a type of dancing.”
“There are different kinds of dancing? How interesting.”
“Yeah. There are different types of dancing for different countries, and Salsa is Latin American, I think”
“Lilin culture is so fascinating.”
“I-I guess it is, eh?”
“Could you show me this Salsa type of dancing, Shinji?”
“What?! No way Kaworu! It’s really fast and stuff!”
“Too bad. Maybe I will settle for just the Salsa sauce instead then.”
…
“What’s the matter Kaworu?”
“Your Lilin carer... Katsuragi I believe, was acting strange.”
“She’s usually like that. Don’t worry about it.”
“Shinji, can people dance with objects?”
“I guess so. Why do you ask?”
“Katsuragi was talking loudly about dancing with pole objects and I don’t understand.”
“She what!?”
“Could you show me how it works Shinji?”
“N-NO WAY!!!”
“Shinji wait! What did I say?”
…
“Hey Shinji the second child was telling me a story earlier.”
“Oh Asuka? What was it about?”
“A mission to exterminate Israfel. Apparently you two were joined at the hip, quite metaphorically.”
“Oh yeah! That was a pain, but don’t tell Asuka that!”
“Don’t worry Shinji, I wouldn’t dream of going against you.”
“Oh, um thanks.”
“I have one question about your mission, though.”
“What is it?”
“What is this ‘dance mat’ the second child was talking about?”
“It’s a game where you dance on a mat, and you score points.”
“Amazing! Even Lilin technology comes from cultured origins. Would you show me how to dance on this mat, Shinji?”
“Sorry Kaworu, but I think Misato threw it out after Asuka kept bragging about her scores.”
