    Summary

    Asuka woke up three days ago in a world she doesn't understand, and she's not sure she likes. For the first time, she is not surrounded by destruction and war, but by the mundanity of adult life. And she kind of hates it.

    Summary

    Learning German was supposed to be a simple chore by NERV, just another test to study for. But for Shinji Ikari, it becomes something else entirely.

    After a humiliating exchange with Asuka, he begins to wish that he could be braver, louder, more like her. Shinji falls into frustration, daydreaming about the things he could have said, but didn't. With Asuka out and Misato busy though, Shinji finds himself alone. After a stray impulse to clean Asuka's room, Shinji finds a pair of bright red interface clips, and a sudden, breathless urge to see himself differently.

    Summary

    As it ends, so does it begin anew.

    Fifteen years ago, the Second Impact radically altered the climate of Planet Earth. In the blink of an eye, three billion people perished, consumed in a sudden surge of natural disasters, as seas boiled and skies fell. The world, as it had been known up until that point, had ended--and for the new world that crawled, furtive and half-formed, out of its ashes, there was a need for a new testament, a gospel of the new age.

    (This is not the first time this story has been told.)

    Ikari Yui, the Third Child. Age fourteen, and fresh on the field to pay, once again, for the sins of her father. Once, Shinji defied Gendo in his grief, and rejected Instrumentality. Once, Shinji embraced Gendo in his defiance, and at last found common ground with the man who had played the most visible role in making his life Hell. Now, Yui stands opposed to Gendo once again, engulfed by the shadow of a legacy bleaker than she knows, held in the palm of her mother's hand.

    And yet, salvation may be found under the unlikeliest and most counterintuitive of circumstances--can it not?

    Summary

    Co-written with Paul Corrigan. This one should really be allowed to speak for itself, although I will say there are plentiful spoilers in it for both the movie and the TV series. Much easier to understand if you're Canadian, or, like Paul, from Michigan, which is practically Canada anyway.

    Summary

    The main question, she thinks, isn’t her chance at survival or whether she’ll stick to the plot. No, it’s whether she should change the flawed system that thrives off war and child soldiers. Arguably, she’s in the best position to fix it. People would certainly be more willing to listen to you if you threaten them with the giant fox demon in your gut. But what would the cost be? Her morals? Her humanity?

    The road to hell is paved with good intentions after all.

    (In which a human rights lawyer is reincarnated into a world without morality, without logic, and most of all, without laws. Helping the world was easier when people weren’t ninjas.)

    Summary

    Stranded on a parallel Earth, the Tenth Doctor finds himself mentoring a traumatized child soldier enlisted in a hopeless war to save humanity. With an endless number of mysteries in sight -- from the enigmatic alien invaders they call Angels, to the strange machines known as Evangelions used in the planet's defense, to the shadowy maneuvers of those in power -- the Doctor is drawn deeper and deeper into a web of mistakes and sins that threaten to consume all humankind. In time, he'll face the darkest question of them all: what if there are some worlds -- and some children -- even the Doctor can't save?

    Summary

    The year is 2000 AD. The Rokubungi Expedition has just awakened the Giant of Light and initiated a catastrophic event that will come to be known as Second Impact. The expedition’s leader, Gendo Rokubungi, uses the last of his strength to send his son Shinji to safety in an escape pod.

    Trapped in a state of stasis, Shinji Rokubungi re-examines his own life and the uncertain future and comes to an unexpected conclusion: if he makes it out alive, he wants a new, better life — as a girl.

    Dredged out of the ocean, the girl that was Shinji finds herself in a slightly different world than the one she was just in. The expedition in this place was led by a certain Dr. Katsuragi, and as far as anyone knows, she is the only child present in Antarctica at the time: the expedition leader’s daughter, Misato Katsuragi…

    (A 99% Canon-Compliant* re-contextualization and expanding-upon of Misato's life combined with a Transfem Shinji story.)

    Summary

    She wakes up in a massacre, drool and blood dripping down the front of her shirt as she stares emptily at the two dead bodies before her.

    A part of her mind is screaming, howling at the memories of countless deaths carved into it and the burning betrayal of his brother.

    The other is sobbing hysterically at the memory of hands that took and took until there wasn’t anything left to take.

    -

    It takes her months to come to terms with the fact that she’s not dead but alive and trapped in the body of a six-year-old little boy whose brother had massacred his entire family. She feels disconnected from the world she's awaken in, where children are being taught to kill and she's living in the same house the boy saw his family be slaughtered in and no one seems to care.

    Being reborn isn't fun.

    Being reborn as Uchiha Sasuke is a mess and a half.

    Benio Amakusa was six years old when she first saw a show by the Takarazuka Revue. That night in her bedroom, she stood before her mirror and pulled her hair back behind her, widened her stance and squared her shoulders, and wished with all her might that she was a boy.

    Summary

    The infuriating thing, though, is that she just honestly can’t tell what Kurusu does think of her. Sometimes it feels like Kurusu only remembers she exists when Goromi’s right in front of her, even though everyone in the damn country thinks about her all the time. (Thinks about her, wants her, photoshops her face onto gravure idols, tries to follow her home when she doesn’t take a cab -- she wanted all this, but maybe she doesn’t anymore, maybe it’s getting a little old. Knowing that she’s secretly the scariest bitch in Tokyo isn’t nearly as reassuring as it used to be.)

    In which Akechi attempts to keep her priorities straight.
