It's a silent evening. Like clockwork, you arrive. Rei is laying alone in her apartment, bandaged and bruised from the recent Angel attack. The wounds hurt, but she maintains a calm demeanor. You plan on nursing her, you figure she’d do the same in your shoes. She greets you with a small wave.

“You're early today… Is something the matter?”

Rei's voice is as quiet as ever. She never really seems to talk more than a few words to most people. You aren't most people. You're special.
