STAGE 08 - [video] Forward dated to tonight

[lastnerv]

[It's a video post! From Shinji! And he's smiling. Terrifying. He's got his comm held up and angled down so that it's clear that someone is standing next to him, and that they are, in fact, holding hands.] I don't usually admit when I'm wrong, but in this case I gotta say, the speed dating thing was the greatest time of my life. I'm glad I got talked into it, so that I could finally find the person who makes me feel complete. [And the comm is angled to the right to reveal that the girl next to Shinji is...]

[feferi!!!! w h a t. she beams, positively radiant, and offers the camera a little wave.] Whoever came up with this is a genius! Thank you so much. I never would have discovered this without it! [she pops shinji a little kiss on the cheek for good measure.]

[Shinji's smile gets big enough to cross into "obnoxiously happy" and goddamnit is he blushing too? This is the worst.] Feferi! [Shinji chuckles. Giggles? It's like both at once.] Anyway, we just wanted to say thanks and we hope it worked out just as well for everyone else! [He turns back to Feferi, ignoring the comm like it isn't still on.] Hey, let's go get ice cream!

[she grins even wider, if that is even possible] I love ice cream! How did you know? [she flicks his nose, jokingly, and laughs herself. god, he is such a dork!]

[Shinji leans towards her aaaand fortunately for the sake of everyone's sanity, that's the end of the video feed.]

There's a slot for the game to go in. You can only put one in at a time, though.
