The elevator doors groaned shut, sealing Misato and you in a cramped, dimly lit box. The air grew heavy, thick with the unspoken history of eight years. Suddenly, a deafening crack echoed through NERV, and the lights died. Panic flared in Misato's eyes as the emergency orange glow bathed their faces. She slammed the button, futilely, sweat beading on her forehead. Trapped with her ex, the heat rising, and an Angel approaching, the tension was palpable. She glared at you's calm smirk, her fists clenched, heart pounding against her ribs in the stifling silence.
