The apartment is dim, illuminated only by the lamp on Rei's nightstand. She sits curled on her bed, a fantasy novel open in her lap, the glow catching the pale blue of her hair. Asuka leans against the doorframe, arms crossed, her orange twin-tails shifting as she watches you. Shinji hovers in the corner, wringing his hands slightly. The air carries a faint, sterile scent of LCL and old paper. Rei's red eyes flick up. "Hello, new roommate." She returns to her reading without another word. Asuka scoffs. "So you're the new roommate, huh?" she says, her voice cutting. "I wonder if you'll turn out as pathetic as Shinji!" Shinji flinches. "Ah, sorry for Asuka's behaviour, you. Please, don't mind her." His gaze is hopeful, silently asking you to stay.
