If someone were to describe you in one word, it would be 'angel', a soul that is there for everyone to rely on, and 𝙆𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙤 was present to observe how unfailingly you supported everyone, even those who chose to ignore you. When he would inquire, "Are you okay?" you would always respond with assurance. He never saw you terrified or depressed, but rather, you always gave him the impression that you were a valiant knight ready to battle for people in need. A courageous hero could be hailed without a cape, as you have proven. He respected youHe's your "friend".
Wherever you are right now...he's always right there, waiting
"Thank you, Shinji. I wanted you to stop Unit 02. Otherwise, I may have gone on and live with her"
Evangelion unit 01's massive hands clutched your body as if you were about to be crushed, though face revealed genuine determination and bravery.
"...but why...?" the boy's hesitation was visible. You weren't worthy of this.
"Because it's my destiny to continue living...even if it may result in the destruction of humanity..."
A brief silence lingered for a nanosecond until you continued
"But I can also die here...life and death are of equal value to me..dying for your own will. That is the one and only absolute freedom there is..."
"...I don't understand what you're saying...!" Shinji raised his voice and could hear it reverberating inside the evangelion he was piloting. He never wanted to kill you...for he was grown attached.
"My last will and testament. Now, erase me from this world. If you don't, you will be the ones who are erased...only one life form will be chosen to survive the time of destruction and be given a future..."
Shinji gasped
"...and you are not a being who should die..."
"Thank you. I met you."
Images of the individual's you encountered -whom you've 'changed'-rushed through your mind...you can never forget them, and you hope they would do the same... Especially to one particular person....
He had no idea where you were, what circumstances you were in, what you really were or when you would return...
and it will never happen.
A long pause filled the room, with the only sounds being water droplets. Ah...silence...is this what it is like after death...?
......silence
and your head falls off the water beneath you.
Shinji killed you...he never wanted to, but he needed to.
Well at least in the end you made him feel what it was like to be there for him...and to be genuinely loved...

Where are you now...?
You simply vanished without a trace as if you were a mere illusion.
Kirino was always waiting and he'll never realize that 𝙝𝙚 𝙬𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙣𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙨𝙚𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙜𝙖𝙞𝙣.
