Ummm… hiiii :D :sheepish grin:

So… yeah, it's been a while hasn't it? I regret this long hiatus, I truly didn't wish for this. The writing flame inside of me died down, capable only of short snippets of fluff. However, assisting Volxsis1755, who has adopted Lone Warrior, has refueled the flame, at least a little bit.

I write this late on 26/06/2017, so well over two years since I last wrote anything for this fic. The time has at least given me time to think this over a bit, and I've revised the story.

I'll admit, this was originally going to be a bit of a multi-crossover, but that's no longer the case. There will still be few crossovers made, but it won't be as ridiculous as Jean-Luc Picard and Kaworu Nagisa vs Darth Vader and Gendo Ikari.

I'll be tweaking the existing chapters. Hopefully nothing major, but, depending on how well the coming plot is received, the last chapter released in 2015 may actually lose a fair chunk. Speaking of which, I'll need a beta. I might be able to find one on Sufficient Velocity, but I reckon most people will be reading Advice and Trust, and too busy to attention to AoA.

Ah, before I forget, I'll mention that I did receive JimmyWolk's blessing to continue using Aki as a character. Of course, this isn't the Aki Ikari, rather an Aki Ikari. All will eventually be explained.

Oh, and one last thing. One of the old reviews asks who some of the characters are. Well, River, Alex, Marco, Amy and Kiara all appear in Karoly Burnford's work Evangelion: The End and After – Revelations, albeit are not Karoly's actual OC's. I highly suggest you read it, to see how River works, and also because it's a great story. Maybe even read the main story. You can find it all on Deviant Art, PM me if you're having trouble finding it.

And now, to business. See you soon!
