Life on the moon hadn't been much different from life on Exsilium. There was Kaworu, now, that was different. The places where he could practice his cello had dwindled. But he could see the stars from the observatory, and that was a good enough substitute for him. Practicing with the VR wasn't something he did as often--training in general was something he'd cut back on.

He'd kept to himself for most of the time on the moon. So it's with some surprise he looks up when he hears that knock. Who could it be?

Shinji didn't know who he expected. But it certainly wasn't her.

"... Asuka?"
