  1. <RickDominated> January 15, 2578
  2. <RickDominated> UNKNOWN LOCATION
  3. <RickDominated> "Just an Immuno Booster" the medic had said as he had jabbed the needle into her arm, spreading something into her that felt a whole lot like Ice under her skin. And then the room had gotten rather....fuzzy. And the next thing she knew, here she was, surrounded by pitch black...and in the somewhat uncomfortable feeling of being completly submerged in liquid.
  4. * Tovia-094T groans internally as the coppery taste of LCL fills her mouth and nose, and she breathes in only shallowly, shivering as she does so.
  5. <Tovia-094T> She wraps her arms around herself, feeling around with her feet for the bottom of the tank, or...whatever she's in right now.
  6. <RickDominated> Her feet bump into a...familar feeling object, just below where she is floating.
  7. * Tovia-094T gets a vague feeling of dread, probably relating to the fact that 1) she's naked, and 2) she's pretty sure she may be in a plug of some sort. She tries to push herself down and grab ahold of the seat below her.
  8. <RickDominated> (Synch)
  9. * Tovia-094T feels the all-too-familiar prickling, probing sensation in the back of mind, and suddenly feels her legs go numb. She squirms uncomfortably as the feeling seems to spread to most of her extremities.
  10. <RickDominated> The plug surges to life around the girl, displaying a nighmarish array of tubbing of indiscriminate purpose flowing into....something, just out of her vision, but she gets the distinct impression that its whatever she's inside of.
  11. <RickDominated> "094T, are you synched?" The cold voice of Ayanami comes over a speaker.
  12. <Tovia-094T> "Ye--yes, ma'am," Tovia replies reluctantly. The feeling of metal against her bare skin...isn't that pleasant. "Is...it really necessary for me to be--"
  13. <RickDominated> "It was required for an absolute Reading, for this test."
  14. <Tovia-094T> "...understood," the girl says quietly, folding her arms over her skinny chest.
  15. <RickDominated> Some time passes, various readouts flashing around the plug in graphs and readouts that Tovia can not hope to understand.
  16. * Tovia-094T streches her legs out for a moment, watching a section of scrolling text fade and blink out of existence, replaced by a new set of data, equally incomprehensible. The constant flickering and flashing of the plug displays is becoming rather irritating...
  17. <RickDominated> More time passes, before Rei finally says something again.
  18. <RickDominated> "096T, attempt to move the units Right Arm."
  19. <Tovia-094T> "Yes, Doctor..."
  20. * Tovia-094T complies, slowly bringing the strange Eva's right arm up. But it's difficult to do. It might be the coldness of the LCL, or the multitude of cables weighing down the limb, hooked into its dull, blackened skin.
  21. <RickDominated> "Enough, 094T."
  22. <RickDominated> More and more data flows along the plugs surfaces.
  23. * Tovia-094T attempts to read pieces of it, her eyes flicking back and forth from display to display.
  24. <RickDominated> A few things almost jump out at her, but she is unable to make sense of the fast moving displays.
  25. * Tovia-094T slumps back into the plug seat in frustration, shaking her head. [Same as always, isn't it?]
  26. <RickDominated> More time passes in the plug. "094T, the left Arm."
  27. <RickDominated> (Synch - 10)
  28. * Tovia-094T tries to concentrate, but something just feels off. No matter how she strains or tries to force it, the arm won't move an inch. By the time she gives up, her own left arm feels even more numb than before.
  29. <RickDominated> "What is wrong, 094T?" One of the other technicians asks her. "The Simulation Body isn't responding at all."
  30. <Tovia-094T> "I don't have any idea," Tovia admits, rubbing her left arm in an attempt to get some warmth back into it. "My arm just went numb all of a sudden."
  31. <RickDominated> "Again 094T" Ayanamis cold voice cuts across the comms. "This simulation is important, 094T, so do try your best, alright?" The second technician says.
  32. <Tovia-094T> 094T. 094T. How long had it been since she'd actually heard her surname used? It seemed like an eternity. Tovia focuses back on moving the unit's left arm, but then...
  33. <Tovia-094T> "...there isn't any left arm here," she says plainly.
  34. <RickDominated> "Concentrate on the feeling of there being one." The Tech says rather unhelpfully.
  35. * Tovia-094T makes a face and closes her eyes, raising her own arm as a point of reference.
  36. <RickDominated> The body raises the stump in imination of her, the limb terminating not far from the shoulder.
  37. <Tovia-094T> A shudder passes through Tovia as she flexes her hand and fingers. Something's moving out there, but there's no hand, of course. Just empty space.
  38. <RickDominated> In the recess next to Tovias simulation body, a bone white armored fist raises upwards as well, mimicking the pilots motions.
  39. <Tovia-094T> "Eh...?" She turns to get a better look, leaning closer to the left display.
  40. <RickDominated> "Do not bother with M120, your unit is only synched up to it for now. Just keep moving."
  41. <Tovia-094T> "...M120?" Tovia ignores the admonishment, though she keeps moving her arm. The white Eva's arm looks thin, too thin. Not at all like M112's, and certainly not anything like M101 or M105.
  42. <RickDominated> "Don't worry about it, just keep moving for a while longer, please."
  43. * Tovia-094T mutters something under her breath and sits up straight again, continuing to move her arm. It's almost like swimming, in a loose sense...
  44. <RickDominated> The Other Evangelion faithfully follows her motions for as long as she moves.
  45. <RickDominated> "Alright 094T, put it back down, we're going to do some final adjustments to the System and begin the Overlay."
  46. <Tovia-094T> "No problem," Tovia says, pretending she actually knows what they're talking about. She lets her arm drop, and looks back towards the odd Eva for a moment.
  47. <RickDominated> She is unable to catch a better glimpse of the Slender Machine as its arm slips out of her view.
  48. <RickDominated> "Okay, Begining Dubbing Process in 3...2...1..." The Male Tech intones as the back of Tovias spine begins to tingle slightly
  49. <Tovia-094T> "Gah--!" the girl reflexively starts to pull away from the seat as she's shocked, her back feeling as though it's throbbing.
  50. <RickDominated> "Looks..." He leans on his s for a good deal longer than should be nessecary. "Alright from here, at least."
  51. * Tovia-094T reaches her arm back and rubs the sore spot, half-expecting to find a burn there. "...am I done yet?"
  52. <RickDominated> "Disengaging A10 Connection now." The link goes dead around Tovia, as the plug is once again plunged into darkness, a single fleeting screen fading just above her head.
  53. <RickDominated> <094T D-SYSTEM STATUS : ACTIVE>
