You go, naked, to tease that idiot Shinji, because you're quite positive that it'll be a lot of fun to make him flustered. The penguin follows you, staring up at you. Is it staring at your- No, of course not. That's too creepy. And it's another species.
When you reach the boy's side of the baths, Shinji is looking away from you, staring at the divide between the two sides.
"Hey, Shinji!" you shout.
He immediately ducks into the water. "Soryu!"
"Call me Asuka," you say cheerily, sitting down on the end of the pool. Pen^2 dives into the water and swims over to Shinji.
"Asuka... What are you doing here? This is the boy's side!" He looks exasperated. Well, what little of him you can see above the water does.
"I just wanted to have a little chat. Is that so wrong?"
"Uh... are you decent?"
"Of course," you lie teasingly. Your arms are crossed, covering your breasts, and you're partially submerged, so if he looks, he won't see anything.
He turns. You 'accidentally' move your arm the slightest bit, just to suggest that you're about to flash him. He freezes.
Pen^2 seems to be checking something out in the water in front of him in confusion. Shinji sees this and freaks, collapsing into the water. He spasms so much you're pretty sure you got a glimpse of what Pen^2 saw. Only a glimpse.
"Asuka!" he cries.
"Oh... you're so
boring." You flounce off, leaving Shinji alone.

Eventually, your things finally arrive in Tokyo-3. Which brings you to a hard decision. As fun as the last week has been, you really do need to live somewhere a bit less... desolate. Rei's place is just too run down.
You consider your options, and come up with the following possibilities.
1) Move in with Misato. She and Shinji (and that pervert penguin) are nice enough.
2) Find an empty apartment and live by yourself. You are responsible enough.
3) Force Shinji to move into an empty apartment with you. You need a man around to keep the perverts away!
4) Nerv's pilot quarters. Economical, and close to the Eva.
5) Kaj- no, he's still not answering his phone. 6) Re- wait, no, that's where you're living now, and there's no way you can stay.
