"Plans? We don't need no stinkin' plans!"
(rumored to be the entire contents of the NERV Tactical Manual, author: M. Katsuragi)

I feel like Katsuragi would actually explain in detail how plans are in the end, totally useless, but the act of planning itself is essential as it allows one to before arrange and understand ones goals, prioritizes and resources so that when the enemy punches you in the face and ruins your plan you can punch back as quickly as possible rather then standing around dazed.

Ritz: *reads manual* this is actually useful Misato... I'm suprised
Misato: I did go to the same university of you AND did special forces in South America -__-
 
My first thought for where Kensuke was in all of this was that he would get roughed up for trying to count cards but I think we all know what Kensuke would really do if he went to Nevada...

Roughly a hundred and fifty miles north of Las Vegas

Kensuke stared at the officer and tried to put on his warmest most innocent looking face, all the while trying to ignore the various rifles and other assorted weaponry pointed at him. "Honestly I thought the no trespassing sign was more of a suggestion than a hard rule. And besides, you must get dozens of weirdos like me pointing high powered camera's at you a week. Your Area 51!"

The officer in question seemed unamused by the boy's excuses "You are very lucky," he said as he examined Kensuke's confiscated identification which included his NERV card "That you seem to have friends in high places Mr. Aida, Otherwise we would be holding you for questioning. As it stands... I can only hope that I never see you anywhere near a secured facility again."

Kensuke sighed in relief "Thank you, sir."

"Don't thank me yet." the officer nudged a bag by his feet which contained all the cameras recorders film and supplies that Kensuke had brought. "Confiscated material like this stuff... tends to get lost in processing. If you know what I mean." Kensuke could only swallow and nod in response "What did you even want to see anyway? I thought you NERV boys dealt with aliens all the time."

"Oh well, we do... or rather we did. The only one left is a grey haired idiot who hits on my co-workers." Kensuke chuckled.

The officer raised an eyebrow "I will never understand NERV or the people who work for it. Just leave Mister Aida before I change my mind."

Not needing to be told twice Kensuke headed back to his rental car he had parked some distance away. Well, that was a bust, and I lost my new camera too. Mana is going to be so pissed. Shrugging his shoulders he made his way to the vehicle in the waning light. At least I will have a cool story to tell the gang. They must be bored to tears at that stuffy conference.

Actually, I kind of figure he'd want to find a gun club so he could try out some hardware he probably can't get his hands on in Japan. And I thought Area 51 got wiped out when Eva 04 went Philadelphia Experiment on them.

Turns out it can transposed temporally and replaced the Area 51 42 months into the future.

I took from the general tone, the fact Kaworu is still alive and the world is not tang that somehow in this universe things more or less sorted themselves out. At least to the point where the pilots can have wacky marriage adventures. So with that in mind I figured area 51 or whatever NERV facility near it that produced unit 4 did not turn inside out and backwards in this world. If only so I could make that joke.

Yeah. Never let logic get in the way of a good joke.

Honestly, that is what I'm actually running with. All personnel dead, reemergence after Third Impact.

That works too. Even if they all came back alive, they're still conveniently out of the way until 3rd Impact happens.

Misato: "Why is everyone constantly surprised that I'm more than competent at my job? I didn't get named Operations Director of NERV for having nice legs, you know!"

Kaji: "They are very ni-"

Misato: "Not another word out of you, mister 'I'm James Bond'."

Kensuke: "Wait, you what?!"

In fact, the next part covers (briefly) what they did to end the War. I'm sorry I didn't update last night. I got 2 pages of six transcribed, then crashed. And due to the content of one of the flashbacks covering some adult bits, I'll need to pass it through Staff Check, which might delay things a day.

As a recompense, have a preview!

"Everyone?" Rei spoke up from the now open door to the bathroom. "Lieutenant Growlski says he wants breakfast. Do we have any more vodka?"

Shinji paled a bit. "Um… Rei? Aren't you nervous about ah… 'Lieutenant Growlski' trying to… eat you?"

"He's fine as long as he gets his vodka," Rei said serenely.

Shinji eyed the bathroom door nervously. "What happens if he doesn't get his vodka?"

"Then he's not fine." Rei headed into the kitchen area and began to rummage through the cabinets. "Help me find some, Shinji?"

Shinji squeezed Asuka's hand one last time and went to help Rei.

"Do not get eaten by the bear!" Asuka called after him. She resumed searching for their keys or phones in the cushions of the suite's couch. She found her shirt from last night under the cocktail table. She picked it up, but wrinkled her nose at the strong scent of alcohol pouring off it. As if they'd needed any more confirmation that they'd done a truly epic amount of drinking yesterday. "Enough to get married to three people, but forget about it and the whole rest of the evening," she muttered.

Kaworu tapped her on the shoulder, presenting her with a set of fresh clothes. "I found your suitcase under some flung sheets. Still no sign of our phones."

She took the blouse, underwear, and pants with a nod of thanks. She had to pull her eyes away from the ring on his hand as she took them.

Kaworu's own gaze was stuck just as much on hers. She tried to ignore it as she started getting dressed right there.

"Asuka?"

"Yeah?" She stepped into her semi-lacy panties and pulled them up. She was vaguely bemused to note they were the same blue as Rei's hair.

"Why me?"

Okay I don't comment that often I think, but I fucking love this right here :o:oops: the relationship between Asuka and Kawuro has always been the main hindrance at least for me when it comes to the pilots achieving a OT4 so anytime I see it brought up I can't help but feel giddy inside.
In anycase, I can't wait to see Asuka's response :)

This i what would happen with NME Kensuke. A&T Kensuke i'm sure would be involved in Magical Girl hijinks, like stopping Homura and Madoka from fighting and using their god powers to help people, or deal with somekind of Nightmare (or whatever their called) made from all the drunken shenanigans that happen in Vegas, or Kyoko fulfilling a long standing fantasy of KSK+Senpai.

Asuka: BAKA!! What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas.
Rei: I'm sure he'd notice at some point we are married Asuka. If only due to Misato telling him so.

As odd as it sounds (on the other hand I seem to thrive on odd romance) I like the idea of Asuka and Kaworu together. I just like the way her tsun would be absorbed by his relentless enigmatic serenity. That And they were both raised or created by Nerv or seele for a life and purpose not their own. They may not be "just like me" level yet but I do see a connection. I like to imagine them together with Shinji in a triad, but again I admit I am weird.

Or a Hangover...

Only one more page transcribed tonight. And two more written. Hangover pt 2 is going to be at least 4k at this point.

Preview!

The alarms and sirens far above were inaudible at this depth, but Kaworu knew they were going off. Two Nephilim forcing open Heaven's Gate and entering the very heart of Terminal Dogma must have set off every alarm in NERV, even without the immense Pattern Blue signal their AT-Fields must have sent off.

Kaworu looked up at the titanic form hanging from the gigantic red cross before them. Even hanging mid-air on the wings of their AT-Fields, Lilith's true body still towered over them. The constant siren song of the Call was a hurricane-loud scream this close. Only the knowledge that this was truly Lilith, not Adam, allowed Kaworu to keep his will in control over his instincts. That, and his trust in his companion.

"Are you sure this will work?" he asked her.

Rei turned, giving him a perfectly blank look. Only the faint hint of steel in her eye told him she was just as intent on her goal as ever. "No. This will either work, cause you to explode, or trigger you into an irreversible overload state that will require me to kill you to stop. But I am confident the first is the most likely."
