Create an illustration inspired by Edward Gorey's unique style, depicting two women in an intimate pose as shown in the reference. Use intricate cross-hatching and meticulous linework to add shading and detail to their clothing, hairstyles, and facial expressions. Emphasize the neon green accents on their attire, using cross-hatching to give depth and texture. Maintain simple, stylized character designs with neutral expressions, evoking a mysterious and detached quality. The characters should have an appearance that feels timeless--combining both modern and early 20th-century influences--with futuristic elements like geometric neon designs. The background should remain minimal, focusing attention on the figures and using negative space effectively to evoke tension and emptiness. Introduce symbolic motifs such as abstract digital symbols or faint geometric shapes to emphasize a surreal, eerie atmosphere, giving a subtle narrative element without overpowering the main scene.
