Thanks! I was worried about that, since i don't think i have a very good
grasp of the plot of Eva...

	I remembered the fic idea of switching the generations around, and
perhaps even saw the beginning of a fic written, but that was a little
while ago...

That was me ^_^. I posted the first third of this as a teaser about a
month back...

. This is an excellent implementation of the idea, I must say.

	Especially how well Rei would fit into Gendou's role. The idea
never occurred to me until now. o.o Now, Touji _would_ make an excellent
hot-headed military man, eh? :)

Hehehe... things aren't always what they appear to be, but still, it's
good to know that the characterizations work. People are gonna start
wondering why i didn't make Kensuke the military man though...

	If other things map out, I think I can see where Asuka's coming
in, though. :D Anyhow, just a couple of nits that I must pick....

	Green? I recall Sachiel being black and white, mostly.... Eh, but
it's a minor point. :)

I think he was green in the anime; sort of a really dark forest green. I'd
like to use the manga, since i like the manga's Shinji better, but it's
not nearly finished yet <sigh>...

Inside the car, the driver leaned across the seats to look down at her. He
was a young man, probably in his late twenties, wearing a black business

	Quite an excellent piece of description, there. n.n

Thanks ^_^. I'm a firm believer that my dubious descriptive ability is the
only thing that keeps people from realizing that i'm a hack...

Naah, i ain't gonna _tell_ you why, i'm gonna _show_ you...

still yearned for the raw power of a rumbling, gas-guzzling internal

"Yeah, I'll take care of it." Shinji replied, scratching the back of his
head thoughtfully. A pensive look occupied his features for several
moments, before it finally succumbed to encroachment of a rather
infectious grin, as a relieved sigh escaped Shinji's lips. "We've finally
found her, haven't we?" 

	I do wonder what the significance of 'finding her' is.... o.o

Hmmm... Maybe Shinji's just happy cause he doesn't have to put up with
Kensuke's rediculous expense reports for much longer ^_^...

A small frown formed on Rei's lips as the pickup in her ear caught the

	Hm, a frown is more of a full-face thing, rather than just a
person's lips....

Yeah, but you can't usually expect Rei to get it _exactly_ right, though
she tries really hard...

Turning to look down at Misato apologetically, Shinji sat down beside her
and continued to hold the handkerchief to his cheek. "Nuclear missile

	So, are there still N2s in this universe? :)

Yeah, though with fourteen extra years to work at it, you'd think they'd
come up with something more accurate...

"Hey-yoo!" Popping her head out of the manhole, Eimii waved cheerily for a
second, before breaking into a fit of coughs as the cloying cloud of dust
and ash invaded her lungs.

Hi... Maybe i should have asked you how safe it was to write Eva fics
first, ne...?

Looking up from its foot, the second angel scanned the skyline for a
moment, before blink-blinking and giving a mildly distubing claw-fisted
thumbs-up.

	Heheh.
	Anyhow, as I said, quite an intriguing piece of work. Eagerly
awaiting more, of course. n.n Take care.

Thanks! I'll try to write some more pretty soon, but next week is finals,
so i'm not getting _anything_ done for now...
