I have the distinct feeling Squishy and foamy would get very nervous if they got pings from a computer on a connection classified as Secret. Alas, for government-mandated delays!
 
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."

To be fair, A&T Kaworu is already in an irreversible overload state.
 
Kaworu and Shinji do have similar personalities, so I suppose it's not completely out of the question.
Correction: Kaworu and Shinji have similar personalities in A&T. In canon, Kaworu was exceptionally smooth in everything he did (almost to mary sue levels were he not a villain). Here though, he's found himself without an anchor (heh, geddit) to ground himself, so he irreversibly floundered until he began having feelings for Rei matured.

Pretty much. Kaworu's defining characteristic was that instead of closing himself off like pretty much every other person in the show, he approached Shinji so openly that most viewers got a sympathetic "stay out of my personal bubble!" ping.
 
In other words, How We Got Here is going to involve a hell of a lot more than figuring out what happened last night.

.... now I'm picturing a story that's framed as Kaworu explaining to his kids how he met their mom.

>At the end<
Kid: wow
Kaworu: Yeah...
Kid: Know I know why you waited until I was older to explain this
Kaworu: Yep.

"And that's my entire life story kids, nothing skipped! Any questions?"

*cut to couch floating in the black void of space with four piles of dust on it and also Rei*

Or in this scenario "Kids this is the story of how I met your mother... and your other mother. And your father. It is a unique story if nothing else. It all started a long time ago when Aunt Misato picked up your other father and brought him to a place called Tokyo-3..."
 
To be fair, A&T Kaworu is already in an irreversible overload state.

"We are too late. Kaworu is falling to the Call. I was hoping to avoid this, but it is time to use the Final Option."
"Okay, we'll get Unit 0 prep--"
"Negative. But I will require protein bars, bottled water, and raw oysters. In copious quantities."
"What? How does th-- REI WHY ARE YOU NAKED?"
"I will also require privacy." (cameras go 'squish' in a stroke of AT-Field shenanigans). "Also, the Trout may require smokes. Or smoking? I am uncertain of the meme. But that will only be later."

...Huh, I didn't knows oysters were an option. Usually eels are the choice here.
Also, doesn't Kaworu and smoking only go together if he's the one in the lead?

We must stop the forbidden union by performing the forbidden union!
 

Wahahahahah~!



I guess you could say that they'll be making the angel with two backs :evil:
(you got the fish joke. Have a Like) :p


I don't believe a Möbius Strip has a "back", let alone two.

Well, as a Mobius Strip could be considered to have a back that is also its front, you could call it hermaphroditic. :evil:
Kaworu: "...while the idea is not unworthy of consideration, I think I would rather remain Ayanami-compatible."
Rei: "You mean compliant."
Kaworu: "There is a difference?"
Rei: "Allow me to show you."

We must stop the forbidden union by performing the forbidden union!
"We must stop the forbidden union by performing the other, slightly-less-catastrophic-we-hope forbidden union!"
"Asuka, are we in a mahou-shojou anime all of a sudden?"
"Why would you ask that, baka-mine?"
"Because her entire plan hinges on the Power of Love."
"Well, that, or the Power of Snu-Snu."
"Wouldn't that just make our lives an Rated-18+ mahou-shojou porn-spoof doujin?"
"Interesting theory. Let's go test it out."

Meanwhile, Rei is utilizing the power of this trope.... :whistle:
Kaworu: "It's Super Effective!" :ogles:
 
We all seem to forget they literally did that in End of Evangelion. Not posting the image, but you all know what Adam and Lilith turned into....
