Hmm, maybe I should post the answer to the question listed first, since this my-4th?, yeah 4th-post and two of those have been here, not counting this one.
Well, I was bored and had just started watching NGE and I was lumping around the 'net, looking for something to read and discovered this little thing called "fan-fiction" well, hell, more NGE stuff to read, right? COOL!
So, I was looking at an EVA mailing list archive of stuff, and, while browsing that archive, I came across one of the third season eps of NXE, and I said to my self, "Self, that looks kind of interesting, maybe we should start from the beginning, right?" and I replied, "right." And the rest, as they say, is history.
