Death of a Child

Go To

Death of a Child is a Neon Genesis Evangelion AU Dark Fic by 'Amorphous In Black', with twisted retelling (look at summary above) and specified in Surreal Horror and Sci-Fi Horror, with twisted retelling of NGE.

It can be read on FF.net here.

Note: WIP (unless there's anyone to contribute to re-edit this fic page)


Tropes:

  • Adaptation Deviation: Who could thought, that sending a four year old child to his 'uncle' wouldn't go wrong? Instead, we have a The Stoic, butler-like figure with good mannerism and almost monotone voice. But with continuation of the story we're getting the reason why he's like that.
  • Ambiguously Human: Zigzagged. On one hand, despite having different shade of eyes and acting weird, Shinji seems like well behaved gentleman, perhaps too well. But on another hand, his 10% genes are unknown knowledge and guess how it is explained by weird hallucinations and odd things he's doing, or was it him at all?
  • Beware the Quiet Ones: Don't think about even getting confrontation with him - either you'd asswhooped by butler, or in worst case scenario, you'd be killed in cold blood.
  • Bloodier and Gorier: Hell it is. Even when original NGE has blood and gore in darkest moments, this gets too well with more blood and gore details.
  • Body Horror: Stop. This fic has some moments of not pleasant moments of body metamorphosis, mutations and anything related to canonical Evangelion, but bloodier.
  • Darker and Edgier: If original Evangelion series had dark moments and existential takes, then here, we have scenes of gore, blood and hallucinations emitted from a Third Child.
  • Dark and Troubled Past:
  • Empty Shell:
  • Hell Is That Noise: Ties with Shinji's Darker personality, whenever IT spoke with him mentally, messed with NERV's staff or was taking over his body.
  • In Spite of a Nail: Even with occured changes, like Shinji being missed for 11 years that have...changed him, there are still some moments from Evangelion that remained unchanged.
  • Mind Screw: By standards of surreal and boy horror, this fic had plenty moments of mind screwing moments, which includes:
  • Point of Divergence:
  • Split Personality:
