The year was 2124 A.D. The place was the United Nations Defence
Force spacedocks in geo-synchronous orbit around icy Ganymede, one
of the moons of the gas giant, Jupiter.
Codenamed: Babylon 5. :)
The military docks and shipyards were built on metal orbital
platforms that adjoined the commercial docks.
They had tried building them out of straw and sticks, but some damn wolf
kept blowing them down.
"Wussboy to NEGEV, permission to dock."
Shinji, I take it?
Shinji 'Wussboy' Ikari
I knew it.

cockpit before disembarking from the prowler. Hangar techs and bots

drop the period and make that one sentence.
"Awwww..." pouted Misato, arms akimbo, "you're no fun. You know,
you used to be such a cute kid. Well, at least you're still quite a
yummy 24 year old."
"And you haven't changed a bit," sighed Shinji,
"Even though our defences at Ursa Major, Proxima-Centauri and
Jupiter intercepted most of the asteroids in this latest attack, that
one still managed through and come within several thousand kilometres
of our home world," noted UNSC Rep East Asia & Oceania.
So the Angels are throwing spitballs in this one. Interesting.
"Which is why COMPLEX and UN Fleet High Command have been working
on NEGEV," said ACUNGS, Operations. "Vice Admiral Fuyutsuki will
explain the proposed strategy."
Star charts and schematics began feeding through to the other
members of the meeting.
Interesting premise. I think I can see where this is going.
"And now that he's here onboard, you'll

"Hey! I do not harrass!" protestd Maya. "And besides, who cares
about her? You're the only one for me, sempai!"
"Yeah right," snorted Ritsuko, "now, let me see, what were those
fusion reactor calibrations again?"
"But you are! My heart belongs to you and you alone!" declared
Maya as she glomped onto Ritsuko's arm.
Heh. Different Maya this time out.
Shinji threw his arms against the right bulkhead of the corridor
for support as the whole ship suddenly seemed to spasm violently. All
the lights went blacked out for a second. And with the return of
illumination, came the sound of alarm klaxons.
"What the..."
And then from absolute chaos, it reverted to 'A-O-Kay' before he
could even complete his thought.
I see she was right.
Entering the holodeck, he noted that the simulation portrayed the
setting as a large hall filled with pillars that were spaced widely
apart. Illumination was provided by occassional circles of light
beamed down from an unseen ceiling far above, creating intermittent
areas of deep shadow. A low mist crept around the floor - just to
add to the atmosphere.
How pleasent.
"... this pilot," resumed Kihl, "is your own son. Aside from the
suspicion that you're packing the crew of NEGEV with your relatives,
in-laws and former colleauges, he has got quite a disciplinary record.
Three counts of insubordination."
Definitely a different Shinji.
"Indeed," said Kihl as he acknowledged Gendou's points. "And to
ensure that we stay within the schedule, NEGEV should launch and then
proceed to rendevous at Ursa Minor in 72 Earth Standard Hours. There,
you will take the S2 engines, Unit Two and Valkyrie onboard."
And Asuka as well. Wonder how she'll be different.
"Just this flight suit," she said with a completely straight face.
"..." Shinji scratched his head and chuckled to himself. Despite
having a strong and long-standing relationship with her as well as
his ESP talent, sometimes he still couldn't tell if Rei was joking
or not.
Which is for the best since this is Rei we're talking about.
"It looks disgusting!" protested Shinji, pointing at the outgrowths
from the new cockpit that had spread throughout the body of the
prowler. They looked like a cross between varicose veins and tree
roots.
Largely in part because they were.
"And what are these EVA Units anyway?" asked Shinji,
Of course if Maya was smart, she'd simply reply with 'You're only hope for
survivial against the Angels.'

distressed at the changes to his pride, joy and penis extension.
Heh
"You have been designated as the pilot and operator of EVA Unit
One. The activation test will commence shortly. Doctors Akagi and
Ibuki will oversee the experiment." The smirk had faded, replaced
with an icy, professional air.
"Yeah, I'm fine, thanks for asking. Oh, by the way, I like the
beard."
Heh
Gendou's non-response was to turn around and walk out of sight.
"Alright Shinji,
Alright, Shinji
file://So how
those 'file' signs are quite annoying.
"What happened to Rei?!" demanded Shinji, by now, rather anxious.
"No one told me she was injured!"

micro-brewery instead of the LCL plant. Rei drank quite a few pints
before anyone realised what was wrong.//
Heh. Cute
'I still can't get to sleep,' thought Shinji as he stared at the
ceiling, 'must be Ritsuko's coffee-spiked LCL.'
Heh, again.
Interesting work. I'll keep my eyes open for more.
