005. video + action.
Who: Shinji Ikari and you?!
Broadcast: Fleetwide.
Action: On the Heron. If any of Shinji's crew members want their own costume (see below), feel free to claim one.
When: Right around now.
[network.]
[Where the heck is that music coming from?
Unaware that he's being filmed, Shinji wanders into the cargo bay of the Heron, following the muddled melody that's been plaguing him for a few minutes now. He stops dead in his tracks when he comes across--that. That rather large cardboard box with his name clearly plastered on the side. The music seems to be emanating from inside, on a loop.]
Well, that's not ominous at all, [he says dryly.
There's a large blue card attached to the top, which he steps up to and plucks off. As he reads from it, the messages inside flash across the video feed:]
- Shinji Ikari, you're not being true to yourself.
- There's something you've been hiding from everyone around you.
- But it's all right: we understand, and we want to help you.
- This should allow you get in touch with your inner desires.
- Your new life starts now! And don't forget to bring your friends!
- Brought to you by your sponsor: Made Fur You Incorporated.
[All of the sudden, the cardboard box falls to pieces, revealing a bunch of smaller boxes, each with preview pictures and labels stamped on the front. Kaworu: Arctic Fox Costume tumbles on top of Shinji: Azure Moth Costume, and both of those bounce around Asuka: Brown Cow Costume. There are additional costumes for members of the Heron crew, even.]
Oh, come on. I've been waiting more than a year for a sponsor, and this is what I get?
[Shinji sighs to himself, disappointed, and that's when he notices he's already broadcasting to the Fleet's network. God damn it.]
H-Hey! I don't want any of this stuff! Seriously! How do I send it back?

Well, I guess so... [...] There weren't that many different kinds of bugs where I'm from. A lot of them died off. The ecosystem was all messed up for a while. So they're important, but, I don't know... still kind of creepy...

Everyone's from a different place pretty much, so it's not too weird to have stuff like that. Maybe someone knows someone who was eaten by a giant moth.
[She is such a helper.]

[...]
I hope the Fleet doesn't come across any planets with giant killer moths.
[He tends to worry about any and every possible eventuality, so here's one more for the pile.]

[She maybe sounds a little sorry.]

[Unsaid, but implied: I'm not worth the effort.]

[Humor? Possibly. It's hard to tell.]
