2. I thought of Seto coming down to Earth and checking on Ayeka and the others and maybe liking Shinji and setting up a planned pirate attack like she did with Azusa in the Jurai novel.; only it would end up being an actual pirate attack and not one Seto had setup. Then during the attack Shinji would attack one going after Asuka or someone and end up nearly getting killed but saved at the last minute. The experience would make him want to get stronger tl protect Asuka and other people he cares about. And that would be a push for Shinji to go to Jurai.

Chapter3 snippet:

Asuka would awake the next morning to a gentle rapping on their bedroom door. Noikes warm friendly voice would come from the other side of the door, “Miss Asuka, are you awake?” She would ask politely.

Asuka would slowly and grogily pull herself up out of her futon with her comforter still wrapped around her “Mmmn… H-huh? Miss Noike? Wh-what time is it? Where’s Shinji?” She would ask somewhat mumbled not quite awake yet.

“Its about 9:30. Ikari-kun is downstairs waiting for you. He actually got up a little bit earlier and is helping Tenchi with the cooking” Noike responded.

“Heh… That sounds like him. Our old guardian was such a slob, Shinji usually had to do all the housework… Could you tell him Ill be down in a few minutes please? I need to use the bathroom and get woke up.”

“Sure thing” Noike answered happily before heading downstairs to let Shinji and Tenchi know that Asuka would be down momentarily.

Meanwhile downstairs in the kitchen Shinji would be assisting Tenchi with preparing breakfast for the residents of the house.

“You really didnt need to help me with breakfast, Shinji. I usually prefer to just have people watch while I cook.” Tenchi said as he would stir the miso soup.

“No dont worry about it, Tenchi-san. Im used to doing cooking and cleaning where I came from anyway.” Shinji replied as he would assist in cutting up and preparing the vegetables for the kobachi. “Besides you and your family are doing so much for me and Asuka, id feel bad if you didnt let me help you out someway.” He said with a small smile on his face.

“Well we wouldn’t dream of leaving to young people on their own out there and not offer some kind of help. But I do definitely appreciate the help. Would you mind checking the fish? After that all is left is to prepare salads for everyone.” Tenchi answered warmly as Shinji would go to check on the grilled fish.

At that time, Noike would come down from the upstairs bedroom Shinji and Asuka were sharing for their stay.

“Oh. Shinji-kun. Miss Asuka said she would be down for breakfast shortly once she’s refreshed.”

“Okay. I hope she doesn’t make too much of a fuss. She usually prefers German dishes, but I doubt you have anything like that here, huh?”

Not long after Shinji would have spoken, Asuka would make her way down stairs “Don’t worry yourself about me, Third. I’ll have you know I’m perfectly capable of being a gracious and grateful guest, thank you.” she retorted causing Shinji to jump a bit in surprise and nearly cutting his hand with the knife he was using to prepare breakfast.

“Agh! I-I’m sorry Asuka… I-I wasn’t trying to i-implicate you couldn’t be grateful, I just remembered how picky you were back at Misato’s and everythi- OW!” Shinji would cry out as he would feel Asukas fist come down the top of his head. “What was that for!?” he cried out rubbing his dome as Asuka would sit down for breakfast.

“That’s for not knowing when to stop talking, idiot. And for your information, ive changed a lot since then… And besides its not like either of us are in any position to complain about anything, are we?” she said setting down to a cup of coffee as the two males would finish fixing breakfast.

“Now now, we’ll be having no instances of spousal abuse here you two~” Washu would chime in as she would arrive at the table as well.

“IT’S NOT LIKE THAT!” Asuka and Shinji would cry out in unison both blushing a deep crimson.

Just trying to get some feedback and figure out a direction for this to go in… Again thank you to all in advance for any input and help you can provide. Tenchismile

1. End up, like the ending? Idk man, that’s probably gonna’ depend on where your story takes them!

2. Well, if you don’t want anyone to end up with Lashaara, then that’s probably your guidepost imo. Do what you want to do in your fanfiction, after all! (Could be some drama if she meets up with Shinji or whoever, and Kenshi and he end up fighting, or something like that.)

3. Hmm. Maybe have him pilot something different/OC? Since he’s in Geminar, perfect opportunity to do that, unless you have Unit 01 somehow accompany him to Geminar.

4. I’d say this depends a lot on what you do with no. 3, as again, optional, could do without in any event, but if you had an Eva, then a berserker mode might be somewhat expected. If you don’t have an Eva, and it’s an original mecha of some kind, of course much more up in the air.

(Funny, unrelated, but not wanting Shinji too similar to Kenshi, I wouldn’t worry, if anything it’s the other way around, as Kajishima said SKT/Geminar is basically what he wanted to do with Dual, and Dual was what he made after seeing Eva and wanted to try it himself, so…there’d be no Geminar, certainly not as it exists, without Eva!)

That’s interesting. I never realized that about Dual! or Saint Knight’s Tale. As far as one goes, what I meant was where should he end up in the world of Geminar after he and Asuka get sent there after 3I. Thanks again for the input. I had originally kind of thought of having Unit 01 go with them, but not sure how I’d work it out. I just thought Eva going berserker and brutalizing other Mechalords would be something interesting and a good drama point some time further into the story.
