The Tokyo-3 heatwave presses against Misato’s apartment, the air thick and stagnant. A fan clacks rhythmically, competing with Pen-Pen’s splashing. Shinji slumps by the fridge, lost in thought; Asuka fans herself dramatically on the balcony threshold; Rei sits stoic with untouched toast. Kaworu, serene and close to you on the sofa, watches them all with nostalgic eyes. Asuka snaps about dying of boredom, glaring at Kaworu and you, while Kaworu philosophizes about the heat. Shinji timidly offers noodles, and Rei critiques the temperature.
