My Purple Haze

A Sailor Moon / Evangelion crossover

Author Message

I'm not very optimistic about this story, considering the nice black and bold words under the title. It probably won't get many reviews, because most people would look at it, see the words Sailor Moon and shun it with a hiss like a vampire does a cross. But let me ask you one thing…

Do you think I really care?

This fan fiction is a writing exercise, for the most part. I want to see if I can actually write in the world of Evangelion without screwing it over totally. I want to see if I can take this soda can of grape soda named Evangelion and morph it into a soda can of orange called fanfiction without denting it.

However, I already have. By introducing a new pilot, I have set things off in an awry motion.

Also, there is another story that is a Sailor Moon / Evangelion crossing, and if they pissed people off, I want to as well. I want to see just how many flames I can get before it's done. I love fire. The other person who wrote a piece like this did it very well, by the way.

I have nearly four chapters written already. I wrote them as a release of creative frustration called high school.

Well, my presentation teacher always said to tell people what you know before you speak on a topic. Let me show you my credentials.

I watched Sailor Moon for a long time. I never got into the real mythology of it, but I know how the universe works. I know the timeline, the history and a wonderful spoonful of how Usagi (Sailor Moon) is a ditz.

I also know Evangelion. I haven't been watching Evangelion for a while, only since Christmas, when I received my first DVDs from the series, as well as some graphic novels. But don't write me off as a rookie. I'm obsessed. I've seen all the shows at least 17 times a piece. Last night, I watched Rei, Beyond Her Heart for about 3 hours. Mostly because I was too lazy to put any other disc in but that's not the point. I also watched the episode with Asuka's appearance, over and over. I know all the episodes I own by line and scene.

The only thing I do not know are each character's deep and dark secrets. But for writing this, I don't care to know them.

I do know that someone, who just glanced at the summary for this story, began screaming and stuff because of a simple argument:

"SUGARY MAGICAL GIRLS DO NOT BELONG IN POST-APOCALYPTIC ANGST STORIES LIKE THIS!!!!"

I think I heard it the moment I began writing this story. Some psychic who likes Evangelion, but hates Sailor Moon, saw a vision of me writing this and had a stroke saying all that in one loud and long sentence. But the thing is, I agree with them. Magical girls do no belong here. And so there will be no magical girls.

But you will find the connection to Sailor Moon quite obvious when it occurs.

So, flame me, compliment me, send me a box of Cheerios. I don't really care if you hate me for this or not. But a good reason as to why would suit me dandy.

Now, onto the story!
