Neon Genesis Plushievelion
Episode 02: A day of senseless violence.
Some odd short work by.. uhm.. what's his name again? .. oh yeah.. "Kompi".
--
This is.. probably. .what would be refered to as a 'Derevative work' of an anime series known as 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' by the company 'Gainax'. Gainax owns all rights to their licenses, copyrights and such stuff.. and wether I or them own the specific rights for this derevative work I don't know. (Copyright laws are funny things.. uhm..)
Also respective toys featured are owned by whoever made them. I claim no ownership of them.
Yeah well.. I said there were ideas still waiting around.. or I think I did.. not sure. Anyway.. with some of them plus some new ones and a long discussion session online with Fink - the guy who came up with the ideas I didn't (I guess co-idea-cracker would be a somewhat good term ^_^) - we've laid out a few thoughts on this and some comming episodes. There's still alot ideas floating around though.. so there's bound to be more. Fear!
..and Kirby Devotee asked me if I had actually built the LEGO model that appeared in the first episode. Answer's no, I haven't. Don't think I'd have parts enough for that, nor ability to do it. (not very well anyway - defenately not if it's supposed to do battle with a large toy monkey)
Oh well.. on with the show.
Happy reading. -_^

First day in school. Everybody laughed at Shinji Ikari. Or rather, they were laughing at the author for bringing the Shinji plushie to school. Atleast this teacher didn't drone about second impact; not anyone would find the fact that the authors' mom had cleaned the authors room even the tiniest bit interesting. The clock taunted the population of the room by accurately displaying how much more they would have to endure for the day. Maybe it had felt guilty, because it choose to signal for lunch at that moment, giving the poor students a temporary respite. The author didn't know if there was a god in heaven, but atleast for awhile all was right in the world.
--
All was not right very long. About halfway into the lunch break Shinji had been relocated to the hand of one of the more bullying people in the authors class. Alot of laughter was spread around the scene and the author was desperately struggling to reclaim his lost plushie. All seemed hopeless when rescue arrived in the form of one of the teachers set to watch the students arrived. A pull at a certain ear left Shinji falling to the ground. As the teacher and the bully walked off for a talk the rest of the crowd disappeared off to their own corners, not wanting to suffer the same wrath. The author picked up his poor mistreated Shinji plushie and held it protectively, like he was trying to defend it from the evils of the world. Just a few more hours and they'd be safe.
--
There had been an alarm. Though to most people it had only been the signal that school was over for the day, the author had taken it as something completely different. Right now he was rushing to get Shinji suited up and ready to defend the world again. As the bridge crew was rapidly preparing everything after the orders of captain Misato Katsuragi - with beer can - Shinji was slid into the repaired and improved Unit-01. The most obvious change now was the fact that it actually had joints. It could move. This however also meant that the arms hung pretty limply at its sides.
"Eva-01, LAUNCH!" Misato yelled, sending Shinji and his LEGO 'mech over to the floor once again. They had apparenly decided to give him even more of a fighting chance, because some odd type of gun with large rubbery bands along it had been sent to his aid. He picked it up and readied himself to fire as the angel came into view.
--
It was.. long and large.. It looked like a snake.. but with fur, large eyes and a soft tounge sticking out in the front. It rose up from the ground and showed off an impressive height compared to the Evangelion. Unit-01 pulled the trigger. The gun clicked but didn't do anything more. Shinji lifted the weapon and took a good look at it. Whatever locked up before must've released then because something came out of the muzzle at blinding speeds, ricoched off the sky somehow and disappeared into oblivion. Shinji dropped the weapon as the big snake-thing pounced.
--
It was a tense scene. The evangelion tried to hold off the angel as it was pressed towards the ground. The snake-thing's almost tounge-like weapon seemed to try to pick Unit-01's nonexistant nose. With an immense burst of strength Shinji just barely managed to throw the red angel off him and stood up.
"Shinji! There's something stuck on your back!". So there was. Two lone LEGO men had stuck to the EVA when it had landed on them. There was momentary silence before the event was promptly ignored.
"Use your progressive pocket-knife!". Reaching up with the EVA's arm a compartment above its shoulder opened and a red thing popped out. With the authors help Shinji managed to unflip the blade and held the pocket-knife like some odd sort of sword. In a sudden movement the EVA dashed forwards at very-far-from blinding speeds and met the snake head-on. In a swift slashing movement the sharp knife managed to penetrate some of the furry skin of the angel, showing some odd white content inside of it. In a fit of rage, Shinji brought the knife back, stabbed into the wound and pulled down tearing it open even more. The angel-snake convulsed for awhile as much of the white stuff fell out and littered the area before going limp. The knife fell from the EVA's now limp hands.
--
In the Katsuragi appartment located in the authors bookcase a Misato plushie was congratulating a Shinji one. Dinner currently involved staring at a table and the Misato plushie drinking from a can of always-cold neverending beer. A pen-pen action figure with kung-fu grip was using martial arts to consume fish from a bowl. All in all, it was a pretty normal evening. That is, until the first angel burst in. The author suddenly found it hard to explain why he had cut up a soft toy snake with a pocket-knife and was immediately forced to clean up the mess. 'Mom' confiscated the knife for atleast awhile. The author sighed. Atleast third impact had been avoided. Shinji Ikari the plushie had once again saved the world. But the author knew this was only the begining.
--
..I guess I was wrong calling the first episode crap.. I mean, that was bad, this was worse! Yes I know I know, It could've been made differently. But I guess this episode is sort of a warm-up. The plushies are given more of a 'personal' view, and we'll continue that. Hopefully we'll even have some kind of dialogue in the next one.
Oh well.. I hope the next episode will be better than this one was. _
