011. Underground
The Geofront was an amazing place, during the day it was awash in golden light from the massive array of mirrors and lenses that were used to guide sunlight from the surface down into the subterranean dome, and with the City retracted below thick armor plating at night the ceiling of the Geofront looked like a glimmering constellation of man-made stars, and Asuka never got tired to watching it.

012. Soul
"My AT-Field is the physical manifestation of the limits of my Soul, a shield and a hammer," Asuka coldly spoke to Ritsuko, the doctor and head of Technical Division-1 watching the younger woman as she stood between the bottle-blonde and a little girl that was the mirror of the redheaded young woman, "But my daughter is the result of the mixing of Touji's and my heart, and you will not poke and prod her like another of your curious experiments!"

013. Crystal
Two pairs of crystal clear eyes, one set blue and the other indigo, watched each other intently, neither blinking nor turning aside until the blue exactly like her mother's sought out and found their elder counter-parts, "A baby bruvver?"

014. Sunrise
Asuka never liked sunsets, to her they signified an end, life coming to a stop, and especially in winter they arrived far too soon for her taste, but sunrises were a beginning, the start of a new day, and as she sat waiting for Touji's now habitual 'good morning' message on her cell, she watched the rising sun peek over the distant mountains and enjoyed the gentle pressure of morning sunlight as it warmed her where she sat on her apartment's roof.

015. Disgust
Asuka jerked back in her seat inside Unit-Two's entryplug, the sight of the MP-EVAs filling her with a mix of fear and revulsion and bringing up memories of her first fight against them, and she had never been more grateful for the presence of her fellow EVA Pilots.

016. Improvise
It was a new sensation for the jock, having never been on an actual date when other girls he'd asked had giggled and turned him down, and he found himself completely out of his depth for what to do now that Asuka had agreed to go out with him, but his friend's calm advice to just make it up as he went along at least gave him a place to start.

017. Weakness
At one time Asuka looked on caring for others as a weakness and looked down her nose at them, but after fighting alongside Touji in the Angel War and nearly losing him several times, she realized that it was only a weakness if she let it pull her under instead of push her forward.

018. Bent
Touji blinked up at the suddenly far too close roof of the entryplug, vision coated red as the partially drained LCL lapped at his ankles, struggling to comprehend that the proximity was because the container was bent, and slowly slipped unconscious.

019. Analyze
She could feel Rei's eyes on her back as she sat beside Touji during lunch, for a moment wondering what the other girl thought as she analyzed the world around her, and found herself hoping the Half-Angel girl was finding reasons to stop Gendo's plans for Third Impact.

020. Glare
Touji liked to think he was immune to Asuka's glare, having been on the receiving end of it many times in both the last life and this, but the look she was giving him this time had him feeling that he wasn't nearly as resistant to fear as he thought he was.
