Hey look who's back

[After reality restores to normal, Evangelion Unit 01 slowly floats towards the ground by the GDF Tower, its wings gradually fading. When it lands, the Entry Plug opens, and Shinji steps out unto the Eva's hand to lower himself to the ground

I don't know how the whole thing looked like from your perspective, but for me that was...

The most embarassing end of world ever.

And also a bit creepy. But mostly embarassing.

Well excuse me, princess.

Hey, I'm not blaming you or anything.

It's just that... well... what was supposed to happen there anyway? I don't mean for you, but rather for people down here like us. I recall seeing a person I am really close to, doing... well, things. Was that for real?

Rei is still in the entry plug, in the fetal position she appeared in when she materialized. Her brain is still in the state it's been since then, simultaneously going in circles at 150 kilometers an hour and not doing anything at all, unable to come to terms yet with the impossibility in front of her: she's still alive.

A minute had passed. Five. Ten, and her heart continued to beat. She kept expecting it to stop any second.

Her time had run out. The preordained hour of her death had come. And gone.

I'm still alive but I can't be alive but I am but my lifespan's over but I've still got a body the size and shape of a human and I can see and hear but that was the end of my life but my life didn't end but...

[Hey it's your buddy who is pointedly not looking in your direction!]

Are you okay in there?

[zomg_teh_rei]

[Sorry, it'll take more than that to snap her out of it.]

[nobodyelsecan]

[It DID work, right?

Oh shit.]

Hello?

Ayanami!!
