She leans on the door to hear whatever Howl might have to say in reply to her but heard nothing. She turns and leans her back to the door with a soft 'hmph!' and slides to the floor. Asuka looks blankly to nothing and feels the constant smarting on her left eye and right hand. She lifts up her right arm and examines it; the wounds have dried up already, revealing huge vertical gashes on the sides of her hand. She can twitch her fingers a bit now, too, at the cost of some pain however.
Asuka turns to the door again, giving it a soft knock and shouting across the door, "Be quick, okay?" Not waiting for a reply from Howl, she walks over to the mirror to examine her eye. She had taken off the bandage covering her head but not the one covering her eyes as she had been scared that if she took it off roughly, her eyes might get hurt or something. She leans on the dressing table to peer closer at her face, noticing the black eyes and messy hair. She winces at how she looks; only now realizing that she looks just as awful as she was feeling, is feeling.
Her hand hovers above the bandage covering her left eye for a moment before reaching to where it is tied up at the back of her head. She fears what she might see below the bandage, but she tugs at the knot anyway and peels the layers of bandages slowly. When she has peeled off all the bandages, she hesitates for a moment, wondering if it would be a good idea to take the piece of cotton off and look at her wounded eyes. She chews on her lower lip and closes her eyes before taking off the cotton slowly, glad that it is not making any gross noises whatsoever.
The pain on her eye suddenly increases when it is exposed to air and she is scared now, of opening her eyes. But she has come this far, and it surely cannot be so awful, right? right? She closes her eyes tightly for a moment before forcing both of them to open abruptly. The motion makes her dizzy and all she can see at first is a blur of colors.
Her vision focuses and she finds herself staring at a normal eye with blue iris and a red one, an eye with completely red surface. The sight triggers memories of the Doll and blood and pain and the EVA units coming to kill her, tear her apart, eat her. Asuka screams more in fear of the demons in her head than her own eyes. She runs toward the bathroom door and starts pounding on it while still screaming shrilly, never stopping to take a breath.
