Rei Ayanami and Shinji Ikari have nothing. But when they meet, they realize they can have each other.

Fifteen years after Second Impact, the world faces its deepest conflict. NERV, a militaristic organization in Japan, drafts young soldiers aged 14 to combat the mysterious organization SEELE and their super soldiers; the Angels. Shinji Ikari is taken from his mundane existence back home and is confronted with a life-threatening task as he learns to come to terms with his existence.

Or how the chance to fully understand another might mess up your existence. Especially if your name is Shinji Ikari.

Misato buys Shinji a journal as a moving-in gift, hoping it will help him confront his fears. What follows is a window into his mind as he learns to understand and come to terms with his feelings better. (Also available on Archive of Our Own)

Tras el Tercer Impacto, Shinji vagó por la tierra por un periodo indefinido. Su mente estaba perdida, todo lo que sabía hacer era avanzar hacia adelante. Un día se topó con el cuerpo de Asuka, lo que le hizo recuperar sus recuerdos. Comprendiendo de ese modo que solo él podía cambiar su destino. Rei y Kaworu se aparecen ante él y le ofrecen la oportunidad de regresar al pasado.

When Shinji Ikari rides the train from Nagano to Tokyo-3, he is made the epicenter of a reality altering event. With the reality he had occupied now changed forever, he must conceive of a future that will accomodate diametrically opposed ethos. A man who has never known love is now responsible for the fate of the very humans he's been kept separate from, for good or ill.

After the incident with Unit 13, Shinji discovers just how different things are. (AU).

Few get a second chance at living, let alone two or three. Rei Ayanami never knew what to do with the lives she had until it was too late. Getting another chance at living could mean a world of difference. After all, life is an ever changing thing and even the smallest of changes can reverberate across the world.

Shinji accidentally butt dials Asuka. What she hears is most unexpected. Waff One Shot AxS

Being a pilot certainly sounds cool, especially for commercial airliners. However, what really mattered was the journey and what you could gain along the road. AXS. (contains some lemon)

(Rewritten Rebuild) - Shinji Ikari, a boy who was born thinking he could do no good for the world, but fate showed that this was wrong, he would apprehend in the worst possible way.

The war has ended and the world is safe. Shinji and Asuka, now a couple, invite their friends over to play the same tabletop game that helped them tear down their emotional barriers. (Pseudo-sequel to "Lucky Rolls". Rated T for safety. Contains Asushin, because of course it does)

Pilot Childhood Friends AU, Yui & Kyoko live, Shinji grew up with his parents, the devastation of Second Impact was avoided, but none of this will save them when the angels finally arrive. Gradual tone shift - Starts something like the ep 26 AU or SIRP, becomes progressively less silly and more serious/ canon-like. The ReiShin plotfic I wish to see in the world.

After being abandoned with his aunt and uncle on Earth, Shinji Ikari is one day summoned to the far off colony of NERV by his estranged father. He boards the Galaxy class starship the USS Tokyo, captained by Misato Katsuragi, completely unaware of the fate that awaits him... Set in the Star Trek Universe.

The Dummy System is an autopilot nightmare with no sense of humanity. NERV is the one responsible for releasing it upon the world. What if the people responsible for it were ordered not to release it? What if Gendo was threatened with going away if he tried to? The consequences would be severe to anyone if they defied such an order.

The fanfic is discontinued. Will be working on a new and improved version that will hopefully have remove some of the glaring and major flaws. This will stay up to show what is was originally and what lead to it to be discontinued.

After his 'discussion' with Leliel, Shinji gains a much stronger desire to live, although in a weird way. It's still considered the best possible thing that his trauma could have done to him.

Little pieces that were left on the cutting room floor, or thought about at a later point, when writing A Strange Duet. Most of the content will focus on fleshing out the characters with perhaps an occasional humorous piece written specifically for this compendium if time and muse allow.

Can you hear it coming? Can you feel the echoes of long lost pain as the bright stars of blue and red burn in to the night and throw out there ever lasting and eternal flames? Sound the drums and smash the night and pray the fallen destroyer of worlds does not return to breach the everlasting light. (Sequel to Fading Light)

Rei and Shinji agree to a date.

He thought he could help her by doing what she asked.

Shinji wakes up in the middle of the night, and meets someone he did not expect to see. Even stranger is what follows. [One-Shot]

(Rewrite of Calborghete's Plan E story) A post rebuild 3.33 fic. A man responsible for the damnation of billions on the run. Survival unlikely. Redemption, an idea long forgotten. Shinji Ikari only continues with one goal: To fix what has been broken. (This was written with the permission of Calborghete, full credit of original story goes to him)

A crimson kingdom with a garden of flowers. Two souls, fragile, with a sempiternal need for a twin. These oats to be sowed, they could seed on forever.

Post-Rebuild 3.33 - Shinji goes back to the world in which he destroyed and is faced with new situations that do not one was expecting, a world of injustices and errors. Can they fix everything?.
