** And the best part? Gendo ''actually did send the Dummy Plugs against Zeruel.'' What a [[IncrediblyLamePun Dummy Commander!]]

--> ''"Well, it's a step up from how Shinji usually [[ADateWithRosiePalms treats]] [[DudeShesLikeInAComa comatose girls]] (I'll see myself out...)"''

* In chapter 8, Gendo summons Shinji and Asuka to his office again after the battle against Bardiel goes against his orders. [[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/3805893/ A fan wondered how badly Gendo would mess up this time]]: ''"Should we make a poll on how badly Gendo is going to handle the coming situation? Choices will range from 'Slight fuck-up' to 'Send Dummy Plugs against Zeruel.'"''

* This is how Asuka thinks of Gendo's office and Gendo himself the day they get reinstated:
-->''I'm getting pretty tired of this creepy damn office and its creepy damn inhabitant,' Asuka thought to herself as they were frogmarched in by the severely taciturn Section 2 goons that had picked them up. 'Kabbalistic diagrams in the floor and ceiling, overuse of black and red in the decor, making us stand 40 [meters] from his fricking desk... [I]s the world's most powerful emo goth wannabe afraid we'll give him cooties if we stand too close, or just notice that his desk is covered in bad poetry and porn?''

* Asuka talking to Hikari:

* In chapter 4, Shinji has just scored with Asuka, and he is so happy that he is humming and dancing while he makes breakfast. Naturally, [[TheGadfly Misato]] sees this, startling him and sending the fish he was cooking flying into Pen-Pen's bowl, but luckily, she misinterprets it as part of his CantSpitItOut phase.

-->Asuka waved her concern away. "It's fine, he's gone and forgotten. Tomorrow I won't even remember his name. So much for him being a 'dashing older student' like you said. He was just a selfish jerk out for a cheap feel, not anything like a real good man, like Kaji-san or [[OhCrap S--]]" Asuka suddenly coughed violently and covered her mouth. ''Crap! You idiot! That was close!''\\

* When Shinji & Asuka are piloting Unit-03 (which has Hikari inside its Core at the moment) against Zeruel, how does Asuka discover Hikari is there and 'listening' in? When Asuka lets her mind stray to her & Shinji's secret relationship--including a rather active sex life--the link to the Eva felt like it buzzed with shock and blushing embarrassment... and then became ''eagerly inquisitive''.

* Gendo Ikari. Heart-broken widower. Horrible father. Manipulative bastard. And ''[[http://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/4362498/ child-scarer]]''.

--> ''Nope. I must be wrong. Rei did not drag the new transfer student off somewhere and slap him. Not our Rei. That… can’t be it.''

'''Asuka''': "What?!"\\

** As the conversation continues, she underlines different parts of it for emphasis. By the end, the last part has been underlined ''three times''.
* Really, Rei and Kaworu's interactions in general, simply on the basis that it's ''Rei Ayanami'' of all people acting ''full-blown {{Tsundere}}''.

* Asuka's reaction to learning that in multiple alternate timelines, Shinji and ''Kaworu'' are a couple.

* In chapter 4, Shinji has just scored with Asuka, and he is so happy that he is humming and dancing while he makes breakfast. Naturally, [[TheGadfly Misato]] sees this, startling him, but luckily, she misinterprets it.
* In that same chapter, Shinji thinks no one can see him and Asuka having a civil conversation because everyone would [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness find that suspicious]].

'''Asuka''' (shouting and blushing): ''"[[BigNo NO]],"''\\

The only sound in their corner of the schoolyard was the gentle click of Rei's chopsticks against the bottom of her bento and the 'caw, caw' of [[IdiotCrows a lone crow passing overhead]]. Shinji buried his face in his hands.\\

-->'''Rei''': ''“You care about Ikari-kun?”''\\
'''Asuka''': ''(thinking) ‘Red Alert! Red Alert! Top secret information threatened! Deploying bullshit deflectors!’''

* Shinji and Asuka actually schedule their fights and arguments so nobody suspects anything. To their horror, Touji jokes about one such fight that they [[AccidentalTruth bicker]] LikeAnOldMarriedCouple.

* In chapter 8, Gendo summond Shinji and Asuka to his office again. [[https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/3805893/ A fan wondered how badly Gendo would mess up this time]]: ''"Should we make a poll on how badly Gendo is going to handle the coming situation? Choices will range from 'Slight fuck-up' to 'Send Dummy Plugs against Zeruel.'"''

-->'''I'm getting pretty tired of this creepy damn office and its creepy damn inhabitant,' Asuka thought to herself as they were frogmarched in by the severely taciturn Section 2 goons that had picked them up. 'Kabbalistic diagrams in the floor and ceiling, overuse of black and red in the decor, making us stand 40m from his fricking desk... is the world's most powerful emo goth wannabe afraid we'll give him cooties if we stand too close, or just notice that his desk is covered in bad poetry and porn?' ''

** And just before they put their insane plan into action, Asuka says "[[MemeticMutation Now shut up and get in the giant robot, Shinji]]."

* Maya's reaction at seeing Ritsuko in a swimsuit under her lab coat. She tries, and fails, to take her eyes up from Ritsuko's chest several times before the latter clears her throat.

'''Asuka''': "Misato, what the Hell happened to 'we're too young for this'?!"\\

** In front of a pack of girls, Rei tells Kensuke that she needs his assistance with an experiment in such a way that all girls became convinced that Kensuke was some kind of stud and started to hound him.

* And then we have the next exchange:
-->'''Tanaka''': ''"Is... is she talking about-"''\\

* Also in chapter 5: Rei deduces her friends are in a SecretRelationship. Hurt, she wonders why they are keeping it from her, since they should know she is good at keeping secrets... and then she realizes if they knew she was keeping secrets, then it would mean that she would not be good at keeping them.

* After learning about concepts such like DoubleEntendre, humor and sarcasm, Rei becomes a Mistress of Trolling and a ''social ninja'' (as Asuka puts it). In chapter 6, she starts the unleashing of her power...

* This is how Asuka thinks of Gendo's office and Gendo himself:

* Asuka's scheme to let Misato know they are together AND are sleeping together and they are not stopping involves a week-long "play-act" involving ''Strip Chess'', foot massages and role-swapping (Asuka acting like the timid Shinji and Shinji acting like the aggressive Asuka). It is even more hilarious than it sounds.

* Shinji's sheer incredulity at the fact that Rei is ''visibly'' pissed.

** Immediately after, Shinji gets so distracted when he sees Asuka that he smashes his toe against the table's leg. Fortunately, he managed to ''not'' spill the contents of the tray he was carrying.

-'''Rei''': Are you...''quoting'' at me?\\

-->'''Rei''': “I have slapped you, yelled at you, and I threaten to kill you in practically every conversation we have ever had, and this ''turns you on''?”

** Meta example from the same chapter. When Rei falls unconscious from her clones being destroyed, Shinji and Kawrou ride with her to Geofront. Kawrou looks as if he wants to hold Rei's hand on the way, and Shinji tries to assure him that she wouldn't mind. As one commenter put it:

* Asuka's reaction to learning that in multiple alternate timelines, Shinji and Kaworu are a couple.

* In Chapter 2, after psyching herself up, Asuka opens the bathroom door to walk out and in shambles…''[[OhCrap a zombie!]]'' [[DoubleTake Oh, wait…that's no zombie.]] It's just Misato having a hangover.

* In chapter 4, Shinji has just scored with Asuka, and he is so happy that he is humming and dancing while he makes breakfast. Naturally, Misato sees this, but luckily, she misinterprets it.

* Also in chapter 4, [[http://forums.sufficientvelocity.com/posts/2203895/ Rei has a very peculiar way]] to describe old battles and joint trainings:

'''Asuka''' (shouting and blushing): ''"NO,"''\\

* Shinji and Asuka actually schedule their fights and arguments so nobody suspects anything.
* Also in chapter 5: Rei deduces her friends are in a SecretRelationship. Hurt, she wonders why they are keeping it from her, since they should know she is good at keeping secrets... and then she realizes if they knew she was keeping secrets then she would not be good at keeping them.

''The distant cry of an ice cream salesman was the only sound in their small side street for a long minute.''

** And the best part? That last option is what Gendo ''actually did.''

-->'''I'm getting pretty tired of this creepy damn office and it's creepy damn inhabitant,' Asuka thought to herself as they were frogmarched in by the severely taciturn Section 2 goons that had picked them up. 'Kabbalistic diagrams in the floor and ceiling, overuse of black and red in the decor, making us stand 40m from his fricking desk... is the world's most powerful emo goth wannabe afraid we'll give him cooties if we stand too close, or just notice that his desk is covered in bad poetry and porn?'
