Shinji's 'Training', part 2
Scott S. "Zoogz" Jamison
Two weeks later...
Misato and Ritsuko were fed up with the new Shinji. He paid no attention
to anything in class, his sync rate was rapidly decreasing, and worst of all
Misato never had any underwear unless she bought it on the way to work. She
cursed the day she let Shinji under her roof, and also cursed the day Gendo
let him go to that 'Marital Arts Dojo'.
Not only that, the 'chaperone' they hired, Kintaro Oe, turned out to be a
major pervert also. Whatever Happosai didn't teach Shinji about the fine
art of pervertedness, Kintaro finished.
After talking about the problem with the staff of N.E.R.V., it was
decided that Misato and Ritsuko would deal with Gendo Ikari, and see what
they could do to at least minimize Shinji's 'habits'.
...
Gendo Ikari leaned back in his chair. He knew something was different in
N.E.R.V. recently, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. He
chuckled... at least his son was starting to act more like a young man
should.
A sudden knock on the door brought him from his reverie. The door opened
to show an agitated Ritsuko and a frustrated, sleep-deprived Misato.
Gendo turned his chair to face the door and the guests he didn't recall
inviting to his sanctum.
"Gendo, you have to do something about your kid!"
"Kid... oh yeah, my son Shinji. What seems to be the problem?"
"Have you any clue whatsoever of what kind of TORTURE he is putting us
through?" Misato spat.
"Now, now, no need to get overly excited, ladies... now describe the
problem," Gendo returned, steepling his fingers.
Ritsuko jumped into the fray. "He is even more perverted than ever! He
steals girls' underwear, glomps them... I've been glomped more times than an
episode of 'Ranma 1/2'; he is in danger of losing his ability to use his
arms!"
"He even dresses up Pen-pen... in
*my* underwear!!" Misato raged.
"He's done all that? What do the other Children think?"
Ritsuko fumed, and spoke, "As you
*should* know, Rei could really care
less. Asuka's been waiting for something like this to happen to Shinji, so
she can practice her long kicking."
Gendo, with his fingers still steepled, gave a nod to the women. "I
shall deal with the problem, ladies..."
Misato, a tired grin etched on her face, said, "And how, pray tell, do
you plan to deal with this problem?"
Gendo finally unsteepled his fingers, and opened up a desk drawer. He
took out a dark-colored hankerchief, and a large unidentifiable piece of
fabric. Misato looked at the assembled implements, and scratched her head.
"I admit, I fail to see what you will do with those."
Gendo smiled, and tied the handkerchief around his head. "I will spend a
little father-son time with these! Sweet-o!" Gendo leaped from his desk
and bounded towards the girls. Before they could shake the shock, Gendo had
already glomped Ritsuko. "Hotcha! Hey darling, there's some more hot love
where that came from!"
It only took a second... "Dry up and DIE, Gendo!!"
The next day...
In the command center, Misato saw another Angel rampaging through Tokyo-3
trying to find N.E.R.V.'s headquarters. "Oh, great... just what we need.
An Angel attack when I can't even account for where the EVAs are! Ritsuko!"
she barked
"Yeah?" came the wary reply.
"Where are all the EVAs? Shouldn't they be in the deck,
*waiting* for a
situation like this?"
"Well, EVA-00 has several Shinji-sized holes through it..."
"They were playing on the EVA deck again, were they?"
"Afraid so, Major. Gendo and Shinji took another EVA; the note on his
door claimed it was for a 'panty raid'... and Asuka took off in hot pursuit,
to kick Shinji and presumably his EVA into low earth orbit."
"Arrgh! Why can't everything be
*normal* again?"
"Well, Misato, we might as well shut the Magi down and break out the
slingshots..."
