[Rei is sitting on her bed with her knees drawn up and her arms wrapped around her legs. The room is dimly lit except for light coming through a thin crack in her curtains. Her face is turned away from the camera as she looks out through the space in the curtains. The bandages she had been sporting as she moved through people's dreams are absent in reality, though there is mottled bruising on her forearms.]

So that is dreaming.

[She's silent and unmoving for several long moments.]

A waste of time.

[She goes back to staring out the window. The feed times out.]

Now and then.

Sometimes I remember things I've forgotten. Even just thinking about the way the sun feels... isn't the same as feeling the sun.

Isn't feeling it better?

Yeah. Just like the way I felt it in that dream.

It's never a substitute for the real thing, though.

[...]

I was in Eva. I saw Lilith.

The first angel? [She remembers that much from her odd conversations with Rei.]

Second. Adam came first.

Oh, I see.

...It wasn't a peasant dream?

It wasn't good or bad.

There was a harmonics test in unit-00. Then Lilith. Then darkness.

Do you think it means anything?

Just memories.
