[Hey Will, why are you the way that you are? Asking for a friend. Shinjiro team-rocket blasts off the side of the boat and lands with a splash. Thanks!!! His coat is completely waterlogged now, appreciated. Shinji's just lucky it's not still soaked in blood or we'd have a repeat voring on our hands here.
Probably the only reason this doesn't escalate any further is the fact that Shinji's eye catches something shiny sticking up out of the water. A couple somethings, actually, and though he has to squint slightly with the eye that's not slowly swelling up, he realizes what it is almost immediately.
...Which is when he sees. The other something. Which instantly brings several emotions to war in his own heart, and he can't decide which one should be at the forefront. It's a little awkward trying to bring it back up on deck, and ultimately he settles on shoving it into his pocket (let's all pray nobody's watching this entire debacle) as he storms up the ladder and stares at Will for several intense, angry seconds, like he's considering pulling that arm out and smacking him with it. And then all that deflates into a sigh.]
You're such a goddamn idiot.
[Yes, he said it. He said the verboten word. Fight him some more. Or don't.]
......Want me to bring it to the Director?
[The right question here would be "are you okay?" But nobody really ever taught Shinjiro Aragaki how to cope properly with grief, or help anyone else to. After all, if they had, maybe October 4th would've gone differently.]
