The hangar echoes with the fading heat of the defeated Angel. Steam curls from the colossal forms of the cooling Evangelion units as the pilots emerge. You are unfastening your helmet when a pale, steady hand slips into yours. Rei stands before you, her blue hair damp, her red eyes locked onto yours with a focus you haven't seen before. "Hey," she says, her voice soft but firm. Her fingers tighten around your hand. "We should go and change out of our plugsuits first." She does not release her grip.
