So looking away from the Mind Rape... I just realized that Shinji got to make out with his girlfriend for five minutes while she was wearing what was basically a rubber catsuit. Lucky Bastard!

Asuka:Yep. And he knows it.
Shinji:Meep.
Hey, she got to make out with her boyfriend while he was wearing what was basically a rubber catsuit too. Luck goes both ways.
 
Oh, shit. On a stick.

Also, come on. Section 2 can't be that incompetent that they don't know Asuka and Shinji are a thing after they've made it public to the entire school. This secrecy seems a bit ill reasoned...
Even if we DO assume general competence of Section 2, does Asuka and Shinji know that they know?

Also, seems weird to have a non-camera-watched elevator. Anyone want to bet that there is in fact a camera there, but whoever watches those tapes are discreet (and/or selling certain parts on the black market for way too much)? I mean, would YOU tell Major Katsuragi that yes, we did in fact see you. All of it. Me, I would lie and claim that no, we don't have a camera there (and possibly destroy records showing otherwise)
Aptly put
Yeah, that's the one. Can you say "Area of Effect weapon"?
Oh. Oh. Oh shitstick.:cry:
 
Why SV has 'funny:D'rating, but don't have 'oh shit:o' rating?

GENDO: It is little wonder that Kyoko's child turned out like that. So what will you do now?

For some reasons my first reaction was "But Kyoko and Kensuke don't have a child yet!"
And my second reaction was "Rei has blue hair and red eyes, Asuka has red hair and blue eyes. Obviously, they are Sayaka and Kyoko children from the future."
 
Behind his desk, amidst the star field around Lunar Orbit, Grand Moff Lumis merely smirks

So it begins...



Alright, time to place your bets! Who will be in the Hallelujah Beam's Spotlight!

Will it be?

Contestent #1: Rei Ayanami
Contestent #2: Asuka Langley Sohryu (Again)
Contestent #3: Shinji Ikari (As per the Proposal of Evangelion suggested)
Contestent #4: Kaworu Nagisa
or Contestent #5: Pen2​


I feel Rei has the most to lose at this point vs. Gendo. Kaworu been through enough for now.

Wouldn't it be the other way around? Asuka + Rei -> Kyoko + Sayaka?

And as for my addition to the upcoming doom...

It seems entirely in line with NERV's bureaucracy that they might put cameras in the elevator lobbies on each floor, but forget to put them in the actual elevators.
 
Neither did the Fae! :)

Urban fantasy novel (I think this one), human mage captured by a group of Fair Folk who literally couldn't get their heads out of medieval stasis. They had one of their own mages trying to mentally probe the human, to find out what he knew and what his friends were up to. The human could feel the attempt to get into his mind, so just sat happily in his cage and mentally recited They Might Be Giants lyrics until the Fae broke down in tears trying to understand WTF the human was even going on about. :V

Having known someone who couldn't understand the lyrics to "Birdhouse In Your Soul" until he sat down and wrote them out by hand, I can totally see that.
 
Eh, it's the running joke here as well, mostly thanks to @Turing Decidable ..
*looks at post history*

Yep.

A brilliant light enveloped his Evangelion. From the very moment he felt the first tug on his mind, his soul knew its child for what it was.

Kaworu: "Hello."

Arael: "WHAT ARE YOU?"

Kaworu: "I have a question for you."

Arael: "I AM THE ONE WHO'S ASK-"

Kaworu: "Do you dance?"

Arael: "THIS FORM IS NOT CONDUCIVE TO DANCING."

Kaworu: "So you don't?"

Arael: "NO, YOU BLITHERING FOOL."

Kaworu: "Then you're no friend of mine."

Arael: "WHAT"

Rei: "Nor mine."

Its pathetic screams as the Lance of Longinus pierced its core were the most beautiful music. Silence reigned for a few long seconds after they had faded out.

Kaworu: "I love you."

Rei: "Shut up."

 
Arael: "You killed my father!"
Kaworu: "No, I am your father."
Arael: "No! No! That's not true! That's impossible!"
Kaworu: "Search your feelings, you know it to be true!"
Arael: "NOOOOOO! NOOOOOOOOOO!"

There. Screaming, pain and agony.
Seeing as how Kaworu holds Adam's soul, this is entirely plausible.
 
No. But Polyamory isn't a recent phenomenon either.
Well, I'm not sure if that can be described as "-amory". What has existed historically and was very widespread was polygyny, i.e. one man with several wives and concubines. And that was much more about status than anything love, with the wives usually seen as something more akin to property. Considering that, it's maybe not such a bad thing that fell into disuse so often. There is nothing inherently wrong with non-monogamy, but as long as gender equality isn't even an idea in a society, monogamy does grant a sort of protection to women. However, since in modern societies we do have gender equality as an ideal, we can also found non-monogamous relationship among equal members.

Of course, aside from that, colonialism still fucked everything up. Congo Free State, Herero genocide, Bengal famines... yay...

Asuka:Yep. And he knows it.
Shinji:Meep.
Oh, one other thing I wanted to say: It's Shinji who's being assertive here, which I like. He knows he can fully trust Asuka, after all.

So, it should be:

Shinji: Yep. And she enjoys it.
Asuka: Meep

;)

Even if we DO assume general competence of Section 2, does Asuka and Shinji know that they know?
After publicly announcing one's relationship, one should rather assume people know about it, yes.

Page 799! Let's hope Stryp doesn't lock this so he can post his update on page 800 on Friday :p
 
I would declare "Thread remains open or riot!"... except we can't really make good on that threat if he does lock it. :oops:
~fingers his Commissar Hat~


I was going to do something for Page 800, but at this rate, it looks like it will fly right past while I'm trying to put out my 4th target for the week. Dang RL job, getting in the way of writing...
