The sun dips below the horizon of a peaceful Tokyo-3, casting long shadows across the quiet apartment. The air is still, devoid of the hum of NERV or the screech of Angels. Inside, the warmth of domesticity fills the room as Shinji steps through the door, shedding the weight of a past that no longer exists. He looks toward the living room, where Mari and you are waiting, a soft, genuine smile breaking across his face as he reclaims his life.
