You just reminded me of Asuka playing the tree in a school play. I assume that is from RARP too, even though I remember the quality of the pic being rather similar to a photo of a magazine page taken from the 90s.
The pic I posted was from the ds port of the game. It was the easiest version to "acquire" with an english patch. But as said prior the game was on pc and ps2 and the higher quality pictures could come from there.
 
Comedy Omake #173 - Don't Try Misato's Cooking, Period
It's Misato. The simpler and more foolproof the meal, the greater the chances of something bizarrely catastrophic.

That implies it goes the exact other way with a more complex meal :V

The four pilots looks absolutely gobsmacked at the spread on the table. "So first course is a butternut squash ravioli with rosemary brown butter, second course we have balsamic glazed lamb with white bean puree or a kale salad with candied walnuts and gorgonzola, and for dessert, we have a honey yoghurt Panna Cotta with blood orange sauce."

Asuka blinked. "You set fire to ramen noodles the other day; how on God's forsaken Earth did you cook this up?"

"Well, I thought since I screw up the easy meals, why not go full blast with making the most complicated meal I could possibly make?"

"I do not exactly see the logic in that." Rei quipped. "But the food does look good."

"Well? Don't just stand there and gawk, dig in!"

"So who's volunteering as royal taste tester?"

Misato rolled eyes at Shinji's comment, as Rei chimed in. "I will."

Rei was the first to lift up a fork, picking up one of the ravioli and biting into it.

"How is it?"

Eyes dilated as her face blushed red, as her chewing stopped.

In fact, just about all conscious functions seemed to stop, Asuka waving an arm in front of her eyes. "Earth to Rei, is this a good reaction?"

"Heh, give her a second to reboot."

"She isn't Eliza, Kaworu."

Rei eventually blinked, before swallowing her mouthful. "Fuck that's good."

"Well, that's all the incentive I need." Before Asuka also started at the appetizer. "Oh God it's like an orgasm in my mouth!"

"Phrasing."

To this, Asuka responded by shoving a ravioli in Shinji's mouth.

Who promptly collapsed to his knees in tears at the taste.

Kaworu couldn't help but feel amused at the sight. "So what's the special ingredient?"

"A cup of love."

He wasn't convinced in the slightest.

"Fine, it's an LCL based additive that Rits has been working on recently; she wanted me to test it out and see the side effects."

Looking back at the other three: Shinji now lying on the floor staring blankly at the ceiling, Rei slowly nibbling on another ravioli with more pupil than iris, and Asuka eating up the rest of the ravioli on the table, throwing one Kaworu's way which he caught in the air.

"I wonder what inspired her to create LCL enhanced MSG."

"Probably her Bond counterpart." Misato shrugged. "Thing is, it didn't even affect me too much when I tried it."

"Too much, you say."

"Fine, I might've needed a cold shower afterwards."

"Figures." As Kaworu looked to the ravioli. "Do I dare, I wonder."

He would dare, swallowing it whole.

Kaworu would promptly pop into constituent LCL for a few seconds, before reforming.

Not as Kaworu, but as Mari. "Just so ya know, Misato, Kaworu's gonna take... ahh, about a month of annual leave?"

"He alright?"

"Yeah, but I wouldn't count on him to be exactly... sapient, let's say."

Misato blinked at the palava that this first course had become, Mari deciding to prioritise finding a camcorder over actually getting clothed. "Pen-Pen?"

Pen-Pen had long since left, seeing the writing on the wall as soon as Misato brought home a large thermos with a biohazard triangle on it.

The Commander shrugged. "Well, can't get worse." As she set about the main course.

Okay, there was a bit more to her cooking this time around :V
 
Having quite literally just finished watching Shokugeki no Soma, all I can picture now is Misato whipping off her headband, (Asuka: When did she put that on?) and saying "Happy to serve!"
 
Hello hello! I'm new here, and created an SV account for the express purpose of reading this fic as it comes out. I really, truly love it, and can't thank Strypgia enough for writing it. I'm currently in the middle of reading the entire thread (right now I'm on page 129), so pray for me as I sink into the abyss.
 
Okay, so I apparently got stuck on finding time when I was in the mood to watch Megas XLR, and that somehow cascaded into me getting behind on the thread, so... belated Chronicles notes?

K: "Rather a shame Kiva could not spend too much time with her family. Though I suppose that was just a sign of the times."
S: "She can join our club."
E: "…Makes me seem rather lucky, in that regard."
I'm kind of glad they didn't entirely pick up on the implication that Kiva's family might not be around anymore. That could've gotten real depressing real quickly, and wasn't something I was expecting Megas to even touch on.

And moving on from that, I voted on the day the Chronicle came out and have barely looked at the numbers since, so...
We live in a democracy, go vote!

SHORT FORM WORKS
LONG FORM WORKS

And introducing the newest work: music! I'll let you know the plan for this kind of media next chapter :)

MUSIC
Cheers to @AustSakuraKyzor for most of the songs on the polling list :V
*sad Wixelt noises*

Rebellion's losing the short form poll again? And Half-Life as well? Awww.
Sorry, Ken. Guess you're gonna have to wait a little while long to play around in Physics Nirvana.

Ah well, there's still time, and even if they don't get up there, I can still check Kill la Kill off my wish list. :p

Rechecking the comic, admittedly it can be a short form work. Probably wouldn't matter too much; could always slot it in as a short work if it gets voted in.
I need to go sort my lists :V
It'd theoretically get Half-Life 2 and Hangover bumped up to joint 3rd in the long-form poll, so... I certainly wouldn't complain. :p

Oh sweet Eris, are those Emus with her? How many N2 mines do we have left?
It's Australia. The answer where emus are concerned will always be "never enough".

Might be an alternative to the DS game, which I've already got on my spreadsheet. And if they don't want to go though 100 hours of gameplay :V
Oh yeah, I actually cleaned up my suggestions. Friendship ended with notepad, now excel is my best friend :V
Would personally still prefer the game, but I have "Platinum was my first Pokemon game" bias, and theoretically any other medium would be easier to get through than it.
Yeah... 100 or so hours would be kind of unfeasible. Unless, of course, Kensuke decides to try and speed run it. :p

Misato is so bad at food prep she can set milk and cereal on fire.
At the very least, it's a fun party trick for anyone who doesn't know the lack of skill behind it.

"Surely you could've helped out as well, Pen-Pen." Pointed out Shinji. "Also being a god and all that."
Well, between manifesting works from other realities, overseeing all omnipotently and raising three kids, you have to wonder how much focus God!Pen has to spare to give one of his alternate selves a boost

Pen-Pen had long since left, seeing the writing on the wall as soon as Misato brought home a large thermos with a biohazard triangle on it.

The Commander shrugged. "Well, can't get worse." As she set about the main course.
Given the starter was enough to give Rei the munchies, blank out Shinji, give Asuka... *cough* "reactions", give Kaworu a mild and temporary case of dead, and outright heal Mari's soul (don't think I didn't notice the lack of a stammer), I dread to imagine what the main course might entail.

...

Actually...

---

Ritsuko glared flatly at Misato.

Maya glared flatly at Misato.

Kaji glared flatly at Misato.

Misato averted her gaze awkwardly, staring out across the small lake of LCL, more of a large pond really, that had come to inhabit the bottom of the Geofront.

She tittered nervously.

"In my defense," she tried to ignore her chief scientist and long-time friend's eye-twitch. "You didn't specify how much to sprinkle the food with."

"I LITERALLY SAID 'ONLY A SPRINKLE'!" Ritsuko snapped.

"I- I didn't hear--"

"She repeated it three or four times." Maya appended dryly, before adding, "I repeated it twice after that as we walked to your car."

"Um..."

"They had me call you later to remind you." Kaji sighed, shaking his head.

"It could've been worse..." Misato tried. "It'll all be fine in a few weeks, and they're good, um..." she glanced at the lake. "...right?"

As if to punctuate her point, a hand and arm abruptly manifested, rising from the orange depths. Though shaky, it managed a thumbs up before its owner lost concentration and it melted back into the shallows.

"My point exactly. Thank you, Asuka."

"This is all kinds of not okay..." Ritsuko put her head into her hands, massaging her temples.

That might be a little too lewd, even by Chronicles' standards

That wasn't the intended reading, as I was going for more of an "Instrumentality: Retaining complete sense of self is difficult" angle. The wording can be adjusted if it's that easy to get a decidedly not SFW reading from it.
 
Why am I not surprised that using LCL as a food additive would have side effects. Next thing you know, when they reform in human bodies Mari will be reborn as a baby.

My take on it, given the experience they had with Misato cooking with the stuff, was "Instrumentality is a giant orgy"

Probably a sign that I need to get out more, pandemic notwithstanding

I know the feeling. I'm the only one who voted for Wandering Pilot and Mysteria Friends and am only one of two to vote for How Not To Summon A Demon Lord.
The first is within spitting distance of getting a thousand favs/follows so i figured it at least put up a fight, even with the...less then stellar grammar. The latter two had gotten some marketing so i figured they do pretty well. Yet here we are.
Even more confusing is how has no one voted for Clannad(i forgot to click on it and Little Witch)? That's a @#$%ing classic

Rebellion is also 5th in line as of now so it can jump up very fast. If it doesn't it's not all that bad at 5th as we'd get to it soon enough.
Though again i am surprised that FLCL and WALL-E is beating it. I'd assume people want the Madoka Anime completed(it is a Sequel to the anime so without seeing it the anime isn't finished), and they'd want more KSK and...well the two former aren't "Eva". Portal we've already done and is therefor a part of Eva like KSK is and EvAbridged is...well you can guess.

Democracy's wonderful, ain't it? :V

FLCL is a Gainax OVA, so it's at least tangentially related to Evangelion through that regard. Though yeah, WALL-E getting voted as high as it is, it's certainly a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
Okay not really, WALL-E's low-key one of my favourite movies period, so i'm not surprised people would vote for it.
...Well, I suppose that makes it obvious what's gonna break the tie between EvAbridged and WALL-E, then :V
 
That's a pretty explicit fanfic... even compare to Re-Take.:V But still the reactions from crew about Shinji having a harem would be very entertaining to read about.:lol:
But it's still far from H; it's more like the Hangover series in that regard(...or as i recall; it's been a while since i read either series so take what i say with a grain of salt). Plus it's not like we are actually posting it on the Thread.
Shinji having a harem, them all being from a "World Of Buxom" world, Shinji's torture at the hands of Melona, Asuka's...everything, Misato/Shinji's mother/son interactions. Basically i figured it have something for everyone; from the WAFF loving to the Elfen Lied loving, to the Franxx(is there one x or two?) loving.

Democracy's wonderful, ain't it? :V
...Well, I suppose that makes it obvious what's gonna break the tie between EvAbridged and WALL-E, then :V
Or we can get another vote for it, and while that's being done you do Rebellion. This is a Democracy right, and Democracy's wonderful, ain't it? :V

——update——
Now it's a three way tie for third place between them, so we'd have to make a new vote for that anyway. ...Right?

"I didn't even get started with that; I was literally filling the pot with water, and it just caught fire."

"Was the pot water?"

"Asuka, I know what water looks like."

Pen-Pen had long since left, seeing the writing on the wall as soon as Misato brought home a large thermos with a biohazard triangle on it.

This is beginning to sound more and more like a certain Blue Dreaming...



Perhaps M-chan is helping Shinji rush the same frat diving club, where not even a cup of "water" or cooking broth is below 70-proof.

I'm currently in the middle of reading the entire thread (right now I'm on page 129), so pray for me as I sink into the abyss.

Oh, take your time. We welcome your presence, just remember to badge in after the temporary lockdown that was Page 708 and if you start smelling the vat of nail polish, Rei has transferred her new beautification routine to motherbird, that is, you're close to the newest updates!

You will ride, shiny and chrome, into the mentions on the next update post!
