"I'll pilot the EVA for you," Shinji answered, the black haired young woman met his eyes. "but I won't be under your command, yours or NERV."

Every time I start this fic, this is the line that stops me. Complete idiocy. Humanity is at stake. This isn't a volunteer organization, this is the bloody draft. Blackmailing for money would be one thing, but this... Shinji should be put up for treason, if not crimes against humanity. And to think Gendo would bow to this farce, considering his other options, or that he'd allow a person so important to his plans slip so far out of his ability to control? What a joke. You sure you didn't mean to label this as a parody?

good chapter

Great story!

As usual I only discover updates to this story a month or more later. ^^; Anyway, a sweet little chappie there, some Asuka/Mana in the works clearly. Nice, especially if it means Asuka gets to act as something other than a ** to _someone_. (not that I like her much, but it is always nice to see other sides to a character XP )

"We're all on the same side, aren't we?' Asuka waved that off casually.

Shinji made a face, "Maybe. But knowing my dear dad," she added sarcastically, "he has a agenda all his own." "

ho boy is that a brillant understatement. I find this particular stream of events most intresting. Please, continue observations, if possible try and find the point where the Major's fate diverged, as this seems to have precipitated quite a few changes to the structure of events. I also wonder what convenced this universes SEELE to invest in Jet Alone.

"Yui had been his guide and light, and without her he simply felt rudderless."

INSIDE JOKE COMBO!

seriously, nice.

Good update :)

Interesting so far. I like the mergence of Jet Alone and the mecha that Maya used in that EVA game.

I hope to see more.

This was a really good chapter, I enjoyed when Asuka picked Mana up and put her back to bed and of course, I love any moment with Ritsuko and Misato..^^

great chapter looking forward to more

great fic so far looking forward to more.

Y'all left a "Thabks" in there.

-Glad to see that you're back. Hope you had a nice winter break. Happy writing, and update soon!

Actually, she iS an incredible pilot... but Shinji is a natural, not to mention he pilots an EVA containing his mother's soul (which probably helped a great deal) and Rei... is Rei. No matter how good Asuka is, compared to other humans whenever EVA piloting is concerned, when these two are involved, she seems like a commoner.

Duvet is a real jewel among anime openings. I finally managed to find the full original version of it (seriously, how hard can finding ONE song be?)
This story is interesting. i was really surprised at first, when it seemed to revolve around Shinji, but once I saw she was a girl, my surprise quickly vanished lol!
I love it. Gave me a few ideas, but whether or not I actually start writing it... I really don't know.
