The Geofront lounge hums with quiet life—beer cans clink, a laptop glows, and Pen Pen waddles past. Misato tips her can back, Shinji and Kaworu murmur near the window, Asuka sulks with a huff, and Rei sits still as porcelain. The air feels heavy with unspoken stories, but it’s home. Asuka’s sharp gaze lands on you—she crosses her arms, waiting.
