Welp. If kissing Rei is like drinking for the Fish, I do wonder how he's going to handle addiction :V

K: "Quite well, thank you very much."
'Quite well', in the sense of "diving headfirst into addiction without shame, remorse, or any thought of or desire for eventual recovery?
K: "I believe that is what I said, albeit much more succinctly."

Now I'm worried what Rei actually gave Kaworu to lock himself in the bathroom (I just thought it'd be music dammit!)
I'm still not entirely convinced it isn't, or something similarly innocent. Mostly convinced, yes. But especially at the lighter end of the spectrum of fiction, it is never completely safe to write off this kind of possibility. It's a rare author indeed that doesn't love trolling the reader base.
 
Okay, let's get my OCD out of the way, first:

According to the original tradition, a male is allowed to 'steal' a kiss to a female without social penalty if they encounter each other under such a sprig.
Shouldn't that be 'from'?
He'd never observed a true mutual-three-way bond like their before.
'theirs'
Rei's smile was a small, tender thing as ever, but Kaworu loved to see it on her face.
As always, take any editorial advice I give with a large amount of salt, but I'd rather use 'always', in this instance.

You make them unhappy, Rei and I will feed you your own arms and legs."
You and at least half the readership of this here fanfic, Asuka. :whistle:
"Anyone else, and I'd strangle them for even touching my Shinji.
With their own entrails - if they're lucky.
 
That was pure WAFFy goodness. :) ....... which terrifies me now, because its Christmas, which means within the span of a week it will be Armisael, Kaworu (im hoping not, but I got a bad feeling about all this character development for him), and then a little event called Third Impact. Meep. In any case, thank you Strypgia for the good vibrations. Im gonna need it. Happy new year everyone!!!
 
"Anyone else, and I'd strangle them for even touching my Shinji. You… I just can't be mad at all, and I like watching you both blush. Merry Christmas, Rei. We love you too." Asuka pulled Shinji back slowly. "We've got a warm bed waiting. See you tomorrow."
Love the double standard she has going there, assuming that Shinji is blameless, but then again, when has Asuka ever needed a good reason to go nuclear?

Then again, my dad's laptop got updated to 10 when he hit the "close" button on the "do you want to upgrade" window (that crap I really want to firebomb Redmond for :mad:)
Yeah, that is infurating. We get bit by the new forced update/reboots at work. Sure, we don't mind if the PC controlling critical hardware decides to reboot all by itself. It only costs a couple thousand dollars to recover from that....
 
The moment has arrived in my timezone, so:

Happy New Year, you wonderful people! May we fill many more pages with WAFFy hijinks and fan wank! :D
 
Also Rei seems to be giving mixed signals to Kaworu (she really is Asuka's student), and I can see that gettin' people killed honestly (this may be WAFF, but it's still Evangelion, and no one's problems went away because of that).

Well, to be fair, I suspect Rei's sending out mixed signals because she has mixed feelings about the whole thing. And she's got good reason to; there's a lot on her plate! She's juggling stopping four different parties from ending the world (one of them against their own will, but still) along with navigating her first solo relationship (which is with one of those aforementioned apocalypse triggers, at that!). She's attracted to Kaworu on apparently both a physical level and to his personality, but pushed away by her instincts and the risk that she'll have to kill him to save the world; that latter point makes it understandable that she's reluctant to fully commit her heart to something that still has a substantial chance of ending horribly. It's one thing to have loved and lost; it's another one to be forced to kill your lover for the sake of the world. Plenty of adults would have trouble with all that; I think Rei's doing quite well under the circumstances, particularly given that she had no experience with her own emotions just a few months ago.

thats ... far too lewd I mean... really.

REI SMILING?!

Here's another one; not sure where it's actually from:


Very subtle smile, but it's definitely there.

Also too adorable not to post:


And if one searches very carefully, one can even find pics of Rei laughing:
Already posted way back in this thread, but IMHO worth a repost.



Of course, there are other kinds of laughter...



Is mad science a trait that runs in the family?:evil:

Actually, Strype has gone on the record that he'll be stretching out the end timeline. Asuka canonically arrives at school in late September, so accounting for all the Angels and Shinji's month in Unit-01 you do have the last three Angels all within a week of the other.

He didn't want the end to be that densely packed so we'll be going past New Year's Day.

First picture: Kaworu... *notes down item #345 on 'list of things Rei does that makes the Call go away'*

Second Picture: Ritz and Maya: Yes yes our apprentice... you have learned well.

"What do you mean 'they're going to be late'?"

"The other angels have been aware of the unplanned-for... situation... for some time and have been enjoying the spectacle, taking bets on various 'will they or won't they' scenarios concerning, well... us... and shipping... *cough*... everything. Some of what Armisael has been writing involving PenPen or the Commander is immensely disturbing."

". . . I really don't want to know, do I?"

"I wish I could un-know what she had me read."

"How long?"

"Years, possibly, depending, in their own words, on 'how long the show lasts'."

I wonder if Rei kisses can be weaponized against angels. I mean, considering this one worked so well against Tabris. ;)

So, if you encounter Armisael, Rei... just kiss her ;)

"I can see you're lonely just like...oh. Oh no, Tabris? You fell in love with Tabris?"

"No I didn't!"

"Pfft, oh this is just too good! Oh I have got to tell everyone that stupid fish-thing's got a girlfriend!"

"I'm not his girlfriend!"

The voice in Rei's mind vanishes and the image of Misato appears in the corner of her eye.

"Rei are you alright? The MAGI have lost the blue pattern and...are you blushing?"

K: "Quite well, thank you very much."

Kaworu can't hear The Call because he's currently got this song looping in his head.
