Akihiko looks over his shoulder at Shinji when he hears him speak. "Good, you're up. Help me break all of the mirrors in this place." He asks, stepping bravely (and stupidly) around the broken glass in his bare feet. There's got to be a trick to all of this. He'll figure it out. Or Shinji will. He can't take credit for getting out of every mess, but he makes sure he can contribute.
