Rei the cultist? Heck, if it ever becomes publicly known just who/what Rei actually is, she'll be lucky to avoid winding up with cultists of her own.

Hail Rei goddess of ... ummm... everything?

Rei: -__-

Followers: We're sorry we got caught up in everything!... umm love would love work?

Rei: No thats Asuka.

Asuka: *chokes on whatever she is drinking*
 
Weird as fuck fic where Shinji was a chaos worshiper of Tzeench, converted Asuka to Khorne, and Rei to Nurgle.

You know, it kinda sounds like the name of an 80's Saturday morning kid's show mascot

One day a dark cloud shall descend on humanity,
The seas will burn and the earth grow barren,
Death will claim the lives of the faithless
And all will know the name of...
Nurgle


I think that's Thousand Shinji? I'm not sure, but it sounds familiar.

The literalist part me me is wondering how A&T Asuka would react upon waking up to discover a thousand Shinji in the house.

Funnily enough this would also cast Rei and Kaworu as the (creator) deities of salt and fresh water respectively. And Rainbow Trout are fresh-water fish.

And as we all know, Rei has plenty of salt to spare :rofl:

I could see a sort of religious duality to Adam/Lilith Rei/Kaworu. Rei standing for life, birth, and creation and Kaworu representing or being the manifestation of war, death, and destruction.

This reminds me of a plot bunny I had for a oneshot months ago. The basic jist being the story of a young girl who lives in the nge world hundreds of years after third impact where human civilization has kinda reset to the bronze age. In it characters and figures from Eva would have been turned into myths and legends. With a lot of the specifics lost to time.

IKEA!?!? That explains everything! Mind bogglingly complex setup, arcanely confusing instructions, and the finished product STILL was nothing like what it was supposed to be!
... are we talking about the same IKEA here?

I mean, I've assembled a bed, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers, two futons, and a computer desk from IKEA, and every one of them was straightforward enough that I felt entirely comfortable doing it unassisted (though I did have to prop the sides of the bed up with GW miniatures cases in order to fit the footboard :) ) and the results were exactly as expected.

OK, I fitted the base panel of the computer desk the wrong way round, so that the computer had to go on the left side where it would have inferior ventilation access, but that's purely a question of me not actually thinking while I was doing the job.
 
not actually thinking while I was doing the job.

It's SEELEE we're talking about; 'not thinking while doing the job' is kind of a given. :p

The instructions in the Dead Sea Scrolls are simple enough a clever child could do it correctly. If said child could actually read the combination of cuneiform, etruscan and pictograms.
 
You guys seem to forget Evangelion was conceived and produced before the 'Ikea Clause' even existed - the Dead Sea Scrolls can be as obscure as the FAR wish.
 
"And third, judging from the style of her prose, young Izumi Ayanami read far too much H.P. Lovecraft for her own good."

Are we sure that it is as the omake's maker said... or that H.P. Lovecraft was not someone informed of GEHIRN and their tentatives of transforming Humanity into a communist hive-minded soup?
 
I've never understood this "IKEA manuals are impossible to comprehend and you can't build the stuff without a university degree, or possibly three". Any fool capable of actually opening the manual, following the instructions and with half a brain could... oh, I guess I found the problem.

(Also, if a screw or anything is missing, they're more than happy to give you another one. It just requires you to talk with them (and possibly not be an ass to the poor customer service, so I guess that's another problem)).

IKEA Clause? What's that? Never heard of it...

Rei winds up with the oddly-mismatched domains of Knowledge, Protection, and Fertility.

Kaworu: <Wiggles eyebrows>
Rei: <Facepalms> Not one word, Trout.

Kaworu at least has the advantage of being some other species' deity. And I suspect that the Angels, ironically, aren't inherently social enough to get the idea of organized religion...

Those ar IRL!IKEA's manuals, that are easy to use.
They are talking of Memetic!IKEA's manuals, that are things so horrorific and aliens that the Necronomicon Ex Mortis call them "senpais" and blush when they look in its direction.
 
Heh. The original post is lost to link rot, but Bob Schroeck once posted a snippet where Shinji meets his father in Episode 1, and gets told to "Assemble the giant robot -- and do it fast, because there's an Angel a-comin'."
The joke being that, in this continuity, Gendo and Shinji's last name isn't Ikari, but Ikea.
