[ Asuka's glad to be back in the saddle again, doing something that she thinks she'll be good at it. In a way, she's happy to be paired with Rani again. She's less enthused about having Misato around - Lexa she's mostly neutral towards. She twitches the reins in her hands as Misato starts to send orders through their mental link. A part of her - childish and vindictive and petty - wants to ignore her. Or deliberately screw this up for her. Make Misato feel the burn of humiliation. It's tempting, but not tempting enough to overcome her own desire to be seen as competent. She cuts after Misato after a moment, fingers tightening.
Why does she always have to do this? ]
(Roger.)
[ She's much more sure of herself than Misato is in the saddle, anyway. She's already catching up, leaning into the canter of her mount. ]
