I've been thinking.
As it is, Frigga isn't a nice place for Shinji to actually be living, long term. It's like living in Battersea Power Station, just trying to keep the place from falling apart. While there're more people due to come (Someone has to fly the helicopters) it's still generally a bad place for someone who's the equivelant of a 14 year old boy to end up. Mackie's with 'family' and happily so and everyone else has settled in in their own way.
But there's a good chance Shinji'll want to live somewhere else.... and it'll probably be in his best interests. It'll be his choice and he won't be kicked out so he might end up staying it depends on how things go.
The reason I'm posting this now is because he's going to have to go somewhere and where that is is going to drive the plot for the next while. I suppose it depends on what different people coming to Frigga offer him. Rei offers a familiar face and some interesting possibilities... Gina too but in a different way, even if she is spoken for. Nené offers experience and a fun personality. Frigga has Mackie and Anika and lax driving regulations.
I'm also still not sure what exactly he's going to do when he wakes up in the morning and realises he's still in the same place. It is fun in a way. For one thing, everyone assumes he likes classical music and while that is what he plays..... it isn't what he listens to (except once).
