	138	Shinji grabs everything including the plug suit and hugs them to his chest in a hurry Rei’s expression does not change BGM START: B-1 [Hedghog's Dilemma]] SHINJI:“Sorry...”	Kendrix: How about covering your backside? Note the "can't act perverted/embarassing towards/close to a proper love intrest"-behaviour here. It implies a sort of respect that is later absent from the S/A relationship. esselfortium: What about the time he accidentally fell on her and squeezed her tits? That one was pretty embarrassing. Kendrix: He had not much control over that one! What is more relevant is that he can't quite seem to keep himself from sneaking glances at Rei when she puts on her clothes but whenever he catches himself doing so, he immediately looks away. Now, whenever Asuka showes her boobs into his face, he NEVER looks away. Feel free to evaluate this however you want, but it's a fact that Shinji shares somewhat different relationships with these girls which certainly differ in the amount of respect involved. Additional Commentary   esselfortium: I'm pretty sure this (never looking away) is inaccurate. In any case, this theory doesn't exactly reflect well on Mr. Shinji. I don't know about you, but I sure wouldn't want to support getting Rei or whichever girl of choice together with someone you claim to be so selectively disrespectful to his female peers. Kendrix: It's not that simple, it has to do with the way the S/A dynamic established itself. Lets not start a shipping war - both girls are part of the story, you have to look at both to get answers... and even the triangle is only a small part of the greater whole. thewayneiac: Re: Never looking away from Asuka's hooters: In Magma Diver he stares directly at them from the end of Cut 051 to the end of Cut 059, looking away only when she flaunts them even more blatantly by deliberately cupping them and asking her thermal expansion question. I think Kendrix is on the right track here. If it were Rei (not that she would behave that way) he would likely have realized he was staring and looked away much sooner.
