rei shows this picture to eito on her phone and says "they look like you"

"oh, rei-san." this is, of course, a classmate; eito's seen ayanami around, though perhaps not enough for anyone to mistake the two of them as being particularly close friends. he doesn't recall ever having seen her smile. "of course, i don't mind at all. i was just on my way out."

" of course, although it might hurt a bit . " he'd hesitate if it didn't prolong what he can only assume is rei's discomfort. falter in perhaps if he, with his limited medical expertise, can stem the wound without added pain. regardless, his gloved hands go into a small sack, searching for the bandages he'd been carrying.

" we're not close yet to anyone who could do more of a job than this. still, i can handle some of it. that said . . it may sting, or worse. i don't want my inexperience to hurt you. " he's far more prone to swinging a weapon than bandage in hand.

" are you sure ? do you trust me with this, for now, until we find someone better ? " / @1stchild

RANDOM DIALOGUE QUESTIONS .

" a little bit, yes. " spoken honestly, phainon slightly tilts his head to the side. " a good friend of mine is a bit like you. very quiet, most would generally call her shy. she's not one to start conversations easily. that said , " not commenting how many times his kind friend has been reduced to monikers, hasty judgments . . not her actual character. easy, to assume, but not the core of who castorice was .

"─── ... she's about the kindest person you'd ever meet, always having good insight. someone i'm very grateful to have as a friend. does that bother you ? being compared to her ? if anything, to me it's a compliment . but of course, you're certainly your own person . i do think you both might get along though, if given the chance.
