Summary

Brief story. Asuka Shikinami has been Rei Ayanami's partner for years. Hir wants to tell her that sie is non-binary, but Rei interrupts them.

They already knows

I'm Asuka. I've been Rei's partner for years. I'm madly in love with her but I haven't told her I'm non-binary. I'm afraid it would put an end to our relationship. Yet I can't hide it from her forever. So, over a meal, I plan to tell her my gender identity but Rei interrupts me.

“I already know, dear Asuka. I am also non-binary.”

“HOW?”

I couldn't help but raise my voice. I've been worried about losing sie all this time and hir is non-binary! Then I started laughing.

“Is everything all right?” My lover asks.

“Yes, yes, everything's ok. It's just... ironic, don't you think so?”

Rei laughs as well. The rest of the meal is spent in good spirits.
