<em>Tch.</em>I cursed lightly to myself.<strong>"Come on, I might as well tell Asuka at the same time."</strong>I didn't really want to tell Asuka about this. She and I had a sort of stiff relationship, but that was only natural since she had just gotten here - or so I told myself. Shinji had warmed right up to me, but Asuka was very... self-interested.<em>Whatever. This has to be done.</em><br/><br/>I stood before them, finally, still clad in a towel, hands on my hips, while they looked at me somewhat expectantly and boredly. Taking a deep breath and closing my eyes, I said perhaps a little louder than necessary,<strong>"Ritsuko has a plan to increase your synch ratios, which means you have to have sex!"</strong>That was definitely not the easiest way I could have broken it to them. Oh well.
