AN: After long time of not publishing anything about Evangelion, i feel that i need to make one immediately.

And what's more than something that hasn't been written? Rei and Shinji's life after decades of happy marriage with their children! (not that children!)

Enjoy.

Also, the oldest child's 19-20 years old, while the younger one is 14/15.

-eva-

"Hey, old man."

Shinji sighed as he about to address his son's not-so charitable greet from his comfy chair. Said son was still not bothered to unglued his eyes from his own laptop.

Not that he hated Shiro or anything, the boy's one of his treasure and forever will be, nor that they were in bad relationship (called him old man was just Shiro's way to get quick attention), but the teenager was currently at the rebellious stage where the chance that he would listen to his advices was practically nil, not to mention about his somewhat diminishing respect lately. Combine that with him being as unnerving as her mother whenever he got upset, and well read in many thing, and the boy always had something to talk about that his 41 years old father just couldn't win, even when he actually knew the right answer.

God, i hope he's not talking about something heavy like Keynesian economy or other shit. No matter what, i just couldn't win against him. Well, i musn't hide away. This's just your own son, it's not like you're going to lose your job or wife or something. And besides, arguing with me is always his way to have fun in holidays...somewhat.

"What is it, Shi?"

"What was...your relation with mom back there, dad?"

"Ah, that." Shinji breathed in relief. That was easy to explain, as long as he tell the right story. The use of dad after the old man also meant that he didn't want to drive him crazy here. For now. "Mom and dad were classmate in Junior High School, around your age. We got separated for three years after the blank period. The time i met her again was the happiest day i ever have. I will always cherished it-"

"I'm not talking about the sappy stuff, dad."

Of course. Of course it wouldn't be easy. He had to take a sip from his tea to calm his nerve. The blue eyes and white haired boy definitely had something unpleasant in mind for him. Speaking about the unusual pigmentation, those two features were what distinguished the young boy from his father's much more depressed 14 years old self. Give either wigs and lens contacts, and they would be almost indistinguishable, aside from Shiro's much healthier build that naturally came from his much better childhood. And yet, the amount of disrespect he often showed would be unheard from Shinji at any stage of his life. "Then what?"

"Is...is you and mom related by any means?"

The question made the tea Shinji drank sipped into the wrong pipe. Even all the mental preparation did not prepare him for THAT. "Are you fine, dad?"

"I'm fine, really." Really, the choke was nothing compared to the five years of life that he just lost from that question. "Sorry, son, but um... why on earth did you ask that kind of question?!"

"Old man, you haven't been this defensive since the argument between Wilt Chamberlain and Giannis. Does that means what i asked's true?"

"What, no! Anyone would be flabbergasted with that kind of question. What give you idea that me and mom's related?"

"For the starter, it's-"

"We're hooome!" Shiro's big sister that was four years old of his senior barged in to the house with a mountain of boxes. By every measure, Ray's an almost direct copy of her mother's beauty, blue hair and all. Except Ray's much taller, nearly stood eyes to eyes to her father that stood at weak 6 feet compared to her mother that barely reached her husband's mouth. Not to mention that she could be described as the ray of sunshine of the family, providing nice contrast to the other members that otherwise not a model of cheeriness. Had there been an argument between nurture vs nature, she and her personality would be the ultimate example of the former, even more than her brother. That is, if anyone with credential's 100% certain that Ray happened to be Rei who grew up in proper family and upbringing. "Oh, jeez. You two picked the right day to not join us in shopping. The rush hour's somehow muuch worse than any holiday."

"Probably road maintenance or accident."

"I think it's the former, since i didn't hear any siren there. Shi, could you help me lower down the boxes? And dad, mom needs you outside. The shotgun seat's stuck."

"Oh, not again." Shinji finally got up from the chair. "Sorry, Shiro. But we'll talk about this later."

Ray said nothing as she saw her father went out of the house. But as he had been removed from earshot, she asked to her brother who was taking off some of bags from the piles in her hands. "How's your day with daddy?"

"Didn't do much. Boring, as expected from spending day with him..."

"Well you should be the one that's find things for him to do. Dad can be really awesome when he had to." His sister said. While she never had any momentary moment of rebelliousness, she still made embarrassing mistakes while she was on his age, and she wanted to make sure that he won't do those same mistakes, much to mixed results.

"You mean like that buzzer beater he made after not attempting any shot before? Honestly, i still couldn't believe it as anything but luck." The younger sibling still scoffed at the idea that his father's not 100% lame.

"Then you haven't spend time and drag him to join you enough. And i don't mean the debate thing. We all know he's not an argumentative person."

"Any other example on his awesomeness?" Shiro instead asked back.

"Like how he saved someone from an angry gorilla by staring at its eyes so intensely it actually got scared?"

"...You're joking, right?"He saw no traces of doubt in her eyes. "Okay, even if you only got some part right, that's definitely something that's very awesome."

"...Are you taking me as a liar, Shiro?"

"No. But you often muddied your memories and replaced them with fabricated bits that you created for yourself. That list you made when you were 15 years old somehow had you listed a very mundane and brief moment from New Takeshi Castle as the fifth most hilarious 4th wall break ever."

"That's when i was a young girl..."Ray sighed as some of her guilt were getting suppressed. She indeed lied to him sometimes, mostly because she felt he wouldn't be able to handle it, and she still felt horrible by all of them. "Now, are you really sure that everything's really boring today? Because, dad seemed like a little anxious with you."

"Well, there's one question that he hasn't answered yet..."

-eva-

Shinji looked at his wife desperately trying to unjam the seat that leaned too much for anyone comfort. Even after decades of proper and normal life, she still ended up liking the sailor-styled clothing more than anything else, although Shinji managed to make her prefer the more comfortable fabric for her outfit. His wife definitely still had that weird and uncanny side of her, and he would not trade it for anything else.

After a series of soft grunts, Rei turned around, and saw her beloved walked to the car. Her neutral expression and greeting still betrayed her frustration and embarrassment for the matter. "Hai."

"Need help?"

"Of course." She stepped off from the door to give Shinji more room. In five minutes, Shinji already fixed it. Temporarily, but still. "You're always good at his, love."

"I-it's not much, Rei. Just a little push from below of the seat while you spin the back, and the mechanism will work again."

"I know. But for some reasons, i never get it right. I'm so useless at this." Rei looked down before she heard the laughter of her husband. Usually she liked whenever he laugh, but this time his laughter came as irritating for her. "What's so funny?"

"Rei, out of everything that you could and should've give a fuck and extra worry, you decided to use it on a jammed seat?"

"You're the one who said that emotion can be picky. I think my disappointment at my inability to do this is pretty much human."

"You're right. Sorry." But Shinji still laughed at Rei. The normally neutral woman couldn't help herself but to pout at her husband. "I'm sorry, i couldn't help it. It's cannot be explained, as you just said before.."

"What a day this turned out to be. Traffic of the year, and my husband thought that i'm such a clown."

"S...sorry." Shinji felt a little bad for laughing at her. "So, what you wanted to...well, what can i do for you, my princess?"

His wife didn't bother to word her desire, as her lips connected with his hard. It spoke so much of her body control that she managed to avoid their teeth clashing, which would've destroyed the mood. But even then, for Shinji, the kiss gave him more shock than good feelings, something that made him feel anxious.

"The traffic made this a...shitty day so far, as Ray probably just said." Rei said as she caught her breath from the almost two minutes long kiss. "I want to make it better, Shinji. So far you didn't help my case at all. So i wish i could get you to agree to act into this particular dream of mine where we make love in our car."

"R-rei! This is public place! And the seat will broke again if we do it here, love!"

"Fine." Shinji let out a quiet sigh. It's not that he never desired a good fun time with his wife, but- "Let's move to the backseat."

"H-Hey! The car's windows are not dark enough to hide us from passerby! We have to move the car to the garage first." Shinji's plea didn't get heard as his surprisingly powerful wife dragged him to the backseat.

"It's enough to hide you. I couldn't care less about them seeing me." Rei argued with something that's rather flimsy, but understandable for her upbringing.

"A...are you trying to ignore the years i've spent to make you care for modesty?"

"It's easy for me to return to the pre-blank period, and this neighborhood's always quiet on this hour. Now shut up and make love to me."

"But Shiro wants-UMMmmm..." Shinji couldn't say anything else as his wife kissed him hard. Slowly he melted into her kiss and returned it, which she rewarded by went slower. That's how he always liked it, and she knew it.

...Why did i ever need to convince myself that it wouldn't be so bad? Be with her is always the best time for me. Maybe i could even get her to act this one where she-

"WHAT? REALLY?"

"OUCH!"

"S-sorry!"

"Ray? Shiro?" Rei gulped as she ran to the house.

But sometimes, it could be the wrong time.

Such as when someone could ask a very damning question to someone you don't want to listen to.

-eva-

As Shinji ran into the house, he could see his younger child rubbed his left feet, definitely the area that got hit by the two boxes that scattered on the carpet. He looked around just in time to see Ray ran into the room with the first aid box on her hands, concerns for him definitely took her first priority over the extremely taboo question.

However, Shinji could see the disbelieving look, or even disgust, that Ray threw at him even if it was just for a slight moment. He knew that The question was told to her when he wasn't there. And this made Ray extremely antsy. In fact, somehow she had it far worse than the one who had the question in the first place.

Shinji sighed. This made everything far worse than he anticipated. He also prayed that Shiro's lesser concern for that question wasn't because he was a lousy father that he couldn't care less. Somehow.

"Rei, can you take care of Shiro? I think i need to talk to Ray for a while. For that question Shi asked me.."

"But you promised to-"

"You can ask mom first." The father interjected his son quickly. "Ray will add some more context for your question after we're done. After all, i think she can handle what i will tell better than you."

"Of course she is." Shiro barely withered under the gaze of his parents for that sarcastic response. "What if she lied to cover for you?"

"Shiro..."

"Fine, fine."

Rei could barely hold herself to stomp on the hurting foot of her own son as soon as the other family members left. She loved him dearly, but sometimes the lacks of respect he had for her husband could be irritating. Not that she did not hold his independence to high level. Actually, she encouraged it sometimes, but sometimes he went way out of his head and caused two more troubles from it, and he rarely learned. "What did you do this time young man?"

-eva-

"If you didn't react this far just to explain everything, i would think that Shiro just get the wrong idea from something."

"I know."

"It's really that important, huh."

The father and daughter now sat in their library. There were very few times when they sat like this, awkward and avoid any eye contact. Both had shares of mistakes, but this one was the burden from somewhere else.

"So...how should we approach it, dad? You, tell everything to me, or we...invent some kind of stories for him?"

Shinji sighed, since this offer's usually less of a proposal to get out of sticky situation and more of a backhanded help for something dishonest. "The last time you offered this kind help, i still ended up telling you everything."

"You caught up, dad."The slight chuckle that Ray gave sent more dagger to her father's heart. It was...so bitter. "Was it...even more disturbing than 'just' cousin marriage?"

"Yes, and no." The mid-forties man still looked at the floor for the next minute. When he looked up for the first time, he muttered an apology. "I'm sorry, but it's really difficult to explain since it require me to dig up memories prior to blank period. Even today, i still don't remember many parts."

"It's fine."

"No it's not." Shinji then mumbled to himself about something to do. Finally, he made a decision. "Look, why don't you search for your mother's photo album? That will help explain many of it."

With instructions from Shinji, his daughter began to unlock some contraptions on the library. Not complex, just well hidden. Part of the contraption was a glasses holder that no one wore. Ray saw some bitterness and regret from her father when she took the holder, but decided to ask about it later.

"Th...this isn't right. Mom was born in 2006, and by 2012 she's already a Junior High School student?" "Come to think of it, Shiro mentioned that you said you were classmates at 2015, and yet you two...should be...five years separate at minimum."

"I wish that i could get everything they have about Rei from the blank period, since i don't have much of my own memories aside from an involvement with my father's another project, but i can tell you this; your mother, was a lab experiment for a project by your grandfather, Commander Ikari Gendo."

"Wh...what for?"

"I...i really don't know." Shinji looked down to his feet, whether disgusted by the lie he had to tell or because he truly couldn't was a mystery. "All i knew was that she's gone for five years after, she appeared one year after it snowed for the first time in Japan, and i believe we're somehow linked to the giant cross monuments."

"Well, now i knew why the blue hair and red eyes exists. Also perhaps that explained why i could go out without using sunblock." Said Ray half-jokingly.

"...Have i mention how mom used to hate the color of her eyes so much before?"

"No, you haven't."

"Well she really was. We once didn't talk for two weeks because i mention it to her." Ray giggled. Her parents' spats often ended up more on the amusing side than serious one. Especially when it came from her mother who always lack of tact. "Took her give a birth for you to finally appreciate those beautiful orbs."

"I...i really didn't know."

"Well, i still haven't give my proper gratitude for that."

"I...i think we're sidetracked too much." Ray said as she lightly brushed off her father's hand. Even with all her knowledge to put him on the innocent before guilty status, she still felt rather disgusted. She could barely heard his agreement, which made her know that she was hurting him.

"So...why are you concerned about being married with a relative? This seemed more like a concern for someone who ended up falling for someone that came from unethical experiments rather than that."

"...Alright, Ray. This part's going to be really disturbing." Said Shinji as he brought a journal book. "This is how you're going to learn about the mistakes made by father, and his obsession toward bringing back...your grandmother, Ikari Yui, who disappeared in an event that i once blocked, leading him to..."

"Create mom." As expected, Ray began to panic hard. "S...so it's more than..."

"Like i said, finish it first."

Knowing that her father had something else that justified reason for why he still fell for mom despite the origins (especially since they could learn to live as lost brother and sister), she obeyed.

"This experiment...judging by their own plug's success, require the genetic of one who's contaminated from the failed [blank].

But i won't. I shall never obey to that requirement.

We can do it...without desecrating on Yui's memories."

"I guess...grandfather really respect grandma."

"The only one, who he ever loved." Shinji quickly corrected. "Everyone else he saw as his pawn. He gave me and Rei one or two act of kindness that we desired from him, but as soon as he needs to sacrifice us, he'll do it without hesitation. I don't know who, but i faintly remember i saw one of my friend, died from his order, in front of my own eyes, in my arms."

"I'm truly sorry for your loss father. It's the least thing i could do and say for you and your friend." Ray solemnly said her sympathy even with all the awkwardness ensued previously, before she contemplating something. "But why does it sound like he was a commander or some sort of that?"

"Perhaps that could explain how he escaped justice for so long before his disappearance. Immunity from government, and not just Japan."

"Considering the state of government around Second Impact, i could see it happen." Ray agreed before she went to read the other pages.

"No matter how much i did, or how much i tinkered with the genetic pool, the girl...still looked like her.

As i expected, there's something not right with...it."

"Okay; when grandfather call mom 'it', is one of the less immoral possibility, you know that we're dealing with some truly fucked up shit."

"Perhaps it's a good thing that i still couldn't recall most of it. Let's read the next page to see what my father see of her."

"It's not her.

Genetic testing showed that her latest genetic similarities between her and Yui keep fluctuating between 5% and 15%.

So why her face always so similar with her?

Is it what i pay, for playing with some [blank] we got? Or for playing god?

Is it, Yui?"

"Well we have the proof here." Ray said rather underwhelmingly. "Should i continue, dad? Because...this is really disturbing. I mean, the bastard..."

"...You'll only understand all of it after you read all of it."

"This girl...who never bleed.

She's not my girl.

Rei...you're going to be my path, to see her again.

Yui...wait for me."

"I feel like grandfather denied his chance to get the humanity he lost by using mom as an object, for...whatever he wanted to do to return grandmother to his side."

"That's what i took from there as well."

"But...what does it mean with the girl who never bleed? Why...would mom?"

"When i proposed to Rei, she rejected it on basis that she could never have any child. That was the first memory of her life in blank period that she got. Took me months talking about how we could do other thing before she finally relented. And somehow, she had her period a year after our marriage. And here i am, sitting with my first daughter, everything's well without any deformity, discussing about what's her life used to be, and to less extent, me." Shinji explained.

"Many of it doesn't make any sense by any measures." Ray shook her head. "Have she take a physical exam again, to find something else?"

"Not so thorough. She's afraid of confronting so many things about her that will cannot be explained by normal sciences, let alone us." That gave Ray a realization that soon will hit her.

"So...oh god. You're never truly scared about the incest or related stuff. You feared about what they'll see on mother after you have to explain why that's not the case."

"Well, i wouldn't say that being accused of incest wouldn't budge me, but you're right, Ray. It's more about protecting your mother's secret from anyone else. But more importantly, i want her to have a happy life, where everyone accept her as a human. It still hurt me when i remember me seeing her again, where everyone looked at her like she's a freak because her hair and eerie calmness. What would she feel when everyone treat her like a freak for many different reasons?"

"Dad..."

"The reason why i never tell you before, is that i don't wish for anyone to fear your mother anymore, including you."

"I can't ever hate mom, father-"

"But you can fear her. I've went through that before, sometime around the end of blank period. I avoided her all the time out of fear, probably from finding her origins or something else. And i did that, when she needed someone to lean on. Even if i couldn't hate her, i still..." Shinji said as he shivered from his anger and guilt. "I don't want her to experience that again."

"Father-"

"Did you have fear of your mother after i told you everything?" Ray wanted to say something before she shut it. Shinji took it as she couldn't tell the lie or the truth, as both were too truthful. "I thought so. I shouldn't let you know. Sorry, Rei..."

The young woman nearly took the easy way and get out of the library before she could say anything else (and unknown to her, replicated a mistake he made), but just as she turned around, she decided that she would try to tell what was truly inside her heart regarding the issue.

"Dad, i have to acknowledge that what you said did terrified me." She had to maintain her grip on her father as Shinji nearly shook her hands off. "But i've been with people who looked disgusting due to their sickness, mental and illness, in that nursery tour before. Not once i lost my pity and grieve for them. And i think even if i got terrified by mother, i will still ended up having what i still have for them."

"What are you saying, Ray?"

"Daddy," Shinji was shocked as he felt her tears. One of the few things that Ray got from Rei was that she rarely cried. This meant that she was truly hurting. "Even if mommy ended up become a monster beyond your wildest nightmare, even if we couldn't do anything to save her, she will still have a place in my heart."

Shinji turned around to see his daughter face to face, and even became more tearful as he wiped the trails of her tears. He then gave back the hug. "I'm sorry for ever doubting you, sweetheart."

"I...it's fine, dad. I won't blame you for...thinking like that before." Said Ray as she hugged her father even tighter. Both embraced each others, showing their love for their family without any words needed. Any bad ramification that might happened later from the previous altercation was already gone by this point, replaced by even stronger bond.

And then, Ray decided to break it with a humor.

"Besides, i should be the one who say sorry for making you go through all of this just to feed my curiosity, even though i won't get disgusted by you even if it is an incest."

"...You're my weird little girl, Ray. Already want to get your parents off the hook for potentially committing a big taboo."

"Hey. I was willing to let it slide even with the weakest explanation, and this's the thanks i got?"

"Indeed, indeed. But i wonder, what was your justification?"

"...I just thought that you guys didn't find about it until later, okay?" Ray said as she shrugged. "Things like that could happen here and there. And besides that, if you two are way too related, do you think me and Shiro will ended up as popular idol on our school with all that potential inbreeding?"

"Smart take. Although a narcissistic one as well."

"Can't help when we always get the most chocolates in 14th February." Ray grinned before Shinji playfully tapped her forehead a little forcefully. The young adult only smiled as she rubbed her forehead. For the first time in that day, both showed how a healthy parent and children interaction should be.

Of course, this made everything went much better for Ray. Not that she lied about her justification, but even with that, her awkwardness towards her parents would stay. Now, even if that still existed, it would be more about her holding the key to the family's skeleton instead.

However, soon, they had to return to previous level of awkwardness as they realized the final goal of this conversation.

"What should we say to Shiro?"

-eva-

"You two took an awfully long time there."

"Yeah, i know." Both noticed that their other family member's not in the room. "Where's mom?"

"Upstairs, she said she's tired. Maybe she already slept by now."

"I see." Shinji knew better though. Once she wanted him, she would get him that night. At best, their rounds would be shorter. "So...what did she tell you? Why did you asked that question in the first place?"

"Oh, nothing. Except i found a family register in old government site, showed that my grand old man adopted mom once, or at least became the guardian. I was suspicious about it since you never liked to talk about him and keep avoiding him like plague, and yet he somehow had time to adopt her. Can't think of any other reason other than business and family pressure, so i became suspicious. Mom said that he indeed adopted her out of nowhere though, so i can't press her for something she didn't know."

What Shiro said just turned everyone else's world upside down, especially Shinji's.

His son didn't ask the question because he found something incriminating like her description from the laboratory of his grandfather.

He asked it because he found an old family register in the former government from some place.

And he accepted a very simple explanation so callously instead of demanding a very detailed one.

I...i ended up telling my daughter everything for no good reason! This brat...no wonder he was so nonchalant of the possibility of me and Rei are close relative!

Hahaha...look what you've done Shiro! Now i know the worst secret in my family just because of a poor assumption by you! Do you know how awkward everything would be for me in the next week, or even month?

"Seems like you two talked about something else, judging by the deer in the headlight look." Shiro's statement stopped both family members in front of him in their train of thought, including ways to inflict humiliation at him.

"Uh, dad's a lousy storyteller, so he ended up searching for many photo albums just to tell the same story that mom provided to you." Well that was a half-truth that might worked.

"Really." Ray's best impression made Shiro got conviction. For now. "Okay, but i still don't believe that's all you two talking about. Your eyes are puffed, by the way."

"Well, there's this bit about how our grandfather was to both mom and dad, and while it's not much, i can say that he's not being a good father and guardian to both of them. Actually, scratch my politeness. He's a jerk who neglect them. Their life would be better without him ever existed."

"Woah."This time, Shiro had a genuinely interested look. And somehow, pride. "That was the most venom you ever spew from your mouth, Ray."

"Couldn't be said to a nicer guy." Said Ray in a sarcastic tone.

"I see. Then you're not bad at being good parent, old man. Much better than him could ever be, at least."

"What makes you said that, son?"

"Well, you broke the cycle of hatred. Kids who had broken home could've ended up as a bad person themselves. Drug user, self loather, domestic abuser themselves...And yet you're here, always trying your best to be a good parent for us. Well, i have complains here and there, but things could be much worse."

"I...i can say that i used to hate myself and thought that nothing good could come out from anything i do. In fact, i used to think nothing would matter if i died in an accident. I'm...pretty glad that i worked it out." Said Shinji, felt embarrassed by the admission.

"Then you're even better than i ever thought." He then did something he rarely did to anyone. A hug. "Good night, daddy."

After almost a minute of nothing but footsteps on the stair, the sound from sequence of a door opened, closed and locked finally was heard. This made Shinji broke the silence between him and his daughter, both currently sported really noticeable blush.

"I... i think it ended up better than expected. Am i right?"

"Well, you got some more respect from Shi, so maybe..." More awkward silence followed before Ray broke it up. "I think i'm gonna have a walk outside. All of the drama because that turds..."

"...Your mom's waiting upstairs for me."

"Well, i hope this...whole nonsense is not a killjoy for you two tonight." Ray said half-jokingly as she gave a quick hug before she ran out of the house. "Don't bother to wait for me. I brought my own keys!"

"And don't think i will forget all that swearing from your mouth, young lady!" Said Shinji half-jokingly to the already disappeared Ray, probably didn't care to the half-hearted warning. After she was gone, he contemplated

The thing was, even with his knowledge about the complexity of Rei's origins made the incest argument null, he still feared that he loved her for the wrong reasons. Obviously, there's still the oedipal complex that'll always be legitimate regardless of the DNA arguments, and that was the thing that still haunted him even years after they became together.

However, with time passes by, that fear's getting squashed by. The fact that he never felt any lust on his own daughter, despite her beauty that's almost the exact same as his beloved only further cemented the fact that he truly loved his wife as part of his soul that he always desired. That, and it disproved his fear that he was a fucked up person as well. Many, if not most felt that special parent-children bond, but perhaps for the forty-years old man it was a little more comprehensible than that.

The only thing that he regretted tonight was telling Ray and Shiro of all their grandfather's misdoings. For some reasons, he felt that he shouldn't be telling them those things since he still barely knew him even after...after...what was he doing with him again? Whatever it was, he believed that he still haven't see the real him. Maybe, under better circumstances, they would have something better?

Maybe...he was even more of a coward than he was before? Someone who feared of others' potential to hurt them? Has there ever been any times where he did something for him, even if he didn't know about it?

"Shinji?"

"I'm coming, honey."

Well, he could think about it later.

After all, he had many happy years in front of him.

And perhaps, a happy life's all his parents ever wanted from him.

-eva-

So after thinking about Rei/Shinji situation, i suddenly got a revelation:

With all that crap going on with Rei, shouldn't that incest took a back seat to the...other numerous problems? Like, the mother of nature thing, the falling arm thing, the strongest AT Field thing, the natural blue hair thing...at this point, at worst it's less incest and more oedipal. And then, i wrote this fanfiction, after months of changing concepts.

Also, i may made Shiro too much of a brat, but as you could see i was making sure that the kids would be an almost direct opposite of their parents, and since Shinji was meek, Shiro would be rebellious. Think of them children being an epitome of nurture in this fic. And many teenagers made dumb decisions that they thought as cool. I know, i've been there before.

And why did Rei survived after scattered to pieces years before? Well let's just say that this was the payoff for her doing her job in fixing the planet, or her rebelled against her fate again, lol.
