[Yeah that's not freaky at all and in a way it reminds him of Wanda. He hadn't been able to protect her either. And it wasn't for lack of trying. She'd defied him in much the same way.
And even with that he didn't have the correct answer on how to deal with this. Instead his own face turns a bit hard.]
And what did you start Rei? This isn't your typical crap luck of the draw. Do you even know what happened to the person you were cloned from?
I suspect that they are dead, or beyond where anyone can communicate with them.
[It was hard to say that she had reason to suspect she was the cloned remnants of Gendo's dead wife, whose soul was now fused with Shinji's "Unit 1" and playing mama protector to him. Though that definitely would explain why Unit 1 went berserk every time she tried to connect with it.
She'd be pissed off too if some cloned half-angel abomination wearing her body tried to sit inside of her head and pilot her body.]
I am not sure 'what' he started, other than that it affects all humanity, and he wishes to guide it. But, like all the others, he is flawed. It is not for him to control.
You know that's the first time I think I've heard you say an opinion and not a fact.
[It's terse, but it's an admittance. He drops his arms, but he's still tense. Tony was —is— extremely possessive. Ever since his parents passed. Even more so since he lost his father's butler, Jarvis, the man who had essentially raised him. Overprotective doesn't begin to describe it.]
I am not sure, and I am not sure I would say "obligated." If I am a clone, he has the material to rebuild me, with the memories I had to a point. It would be me, and it would still be the me needed. The result will be the same.
Maybe ... 'called' is a better word for it. I will not be complete until it is finished. [She shrugged again. yes, she liked this gesture. In fact, she was certain that she liked the gesture. She needed to thank the person who taught her it.]
But I am not certain yet. I just know that I will decide. ... [She paused a moment and looked back at him.] I do have opinions though. I just do not bother when it is not my business usually. But, I am supposed to care, yes?
[He's never told her to be more personable. He gets what she's saying though. And he wishes he could punch something. Is it strange the thought of someone regarding Rei as an object and her allowing it makes him so angry?
Well, breathe. But that's about it. I'm guessing that's not your normal.
[His hands start moving of their own volition, tapping at air. A scan runs over the bird Rei's carrying. It's not that this needs to be taken care of now. It's that he can't stay still. Feel helpless.]
Consider it a vacation. You do have hobbies at least, don't you?
[Tony, seriously, does this girl look like she has hobbies?]
I knit.
[Rei, performing the assigned job that you got when you walked in the door does not count as having a hobby, no matter how many people did it for fun.]

Caring means you have an opinion.

Well. He's only human.]
Just don't get yourself killed.

But... I suppose it is at least a little true. I am not required to do anything here, am I?
