Okay, good news and bad news. Bad news is the original update is forever lost to time and it was a big one too, probably about 2/3 the size of all the other updates combined. Good news is I clearly remember what I was gonna write and I managed to put this out before I hit the sack.

The white slowly fades to black, but you have not returned to the void. You cannot move at all even your eyes won't respond to your mental commands. As the black slowly bleeds to a soft red you realize you're looking at the insides of your eyelids. You can feel that your body is covered by a thick blanket and you are laying on your side.

Suddenly your eyes shoot open and reveal a celing that you don't recall ever waking up too. Your right arms snakes out of the warm covers and starts fumbling around on what must be a night table before grasping on to a large lump of plastic and feeling around it's back. A destinctly plastic click signifies the successful deactivation of an alarm clock and your body relaxes and sinks down into the bed momentarily before it pulls the covers to the side and reveals a rather large discrepancy.

This is not your body. You are not this thin, you are not this short, and you certainly don't have boobs. The body that is not yours pushes itself upright then leaves the warm comfort of the bed and begins shambling across the room. As it opens a door to a darkened small room and flips on the lights you get a good look at whos body you're currently inhabiting. Fire colored hair frames bright blue eyes and a feminine face. The mirror reveals a height that could only belong to someone in their early teens. As she stares into her own eyes a feeling a familiarity sweeps over much like when you first "met" Lilith, only this is much stronger. You know this girl. How do you know this girl? Why do you know this girl? As your mind attempts to sort out this girl's place in your life, you fall into a trance of whowhatwhen and you shut out your senses as you attempt to make something of all the weird shit that's happened lately.

By the time you brake back into reality the girl is now sitting in an odd chair in front of odder controls in what appears to be a small cylindrical room. A voice blasts from speakers somewhere in this claustrophobic nightmare speaking in a language you don't understand. The girl responds with similar sounding gibirish and relaxes herself down into the odd seat. Then the room starts to fill with orange liquid that smells like it leaked out of a week old corpse. The girl doesn't appear to be paying much mind to it as her head is submerged. The first thing that strikes you about the situation is to cough up the corpse juice before it fills your lungs, but the girl is mearly waiting to drown. You are distracted from your imminent death by a holographic screen displaying an old man in a lab coat appearing in front of you. He reveals himself to be the source of the voice you heard earlier by asking a question apparently aimed at the girl. She replies noncommitedly and the old man nods as the screen vanishes. Suddenly, the walls explode into a rainbow and your vision goes white once more.

As your senses return to you, you realize you're in control of your movements again. You crain your head up into a purple masked face and reveal the fact that you are giving Lilith a bear hug.

You look like an idiot.

You have returned to the void, what now?
1)Poke the blue haired waif? Poke the blue haired waif.
2)Ask Lilith about [s]parapets[/s] dream sequences.
3)Attempt to manipulate the void with your mind.
4)Write-in

Detaching yourself from Lilith, you take a moment to consider your next course of action. All of these visions are beginning to wear on you and it'd be nice if you could figure out what's causing them. Unfortunately the only other sentient being in the void appears to lack a mouth, regardless you decide to pose the question to her anyway. Derecting your attention back to Lilith, you notice that her eyes have not left your form and that you appear to have her full attention.

"Do you have any idea why I've been having these hallucinations?"

The only acknowledgment you get that Lilith has heard you is a blink.

"So that'd be no then."

You pause for a second before speaking again.

"You know, this isn't the first time I've had to deal with weird dreams. For a year I had this weird recurring dream about parapets. The weird thing was that I didn't even know what a parapet was, in fact, I still don't. You probably don't either, what with being a giant space potato man."

This time Lilith does respond. Her left arm, that up to this point had remained completely stationary, slowly rises and extends towards you. Too shocked by getting a response from the alien, you do nothing as she carefully reaches into your pocket with her thumb and index finger. Removing a small plastic object that you identify as your phone and examining it momentarily before starting to mess with it. As you contemplate how she can manipulate the touch screen when her thumb is larger than the whole phone, she appears to finish and lowers her hand in front of your face. Gazing at the screen reveals... the Wikipedia article on parapets.

Apparently the giant space monster has a sense of humor.

You are now armed with the knowledge of the architectural significance of parapets.

What wouldst thou deau?
1) Examine thine blue haired maiden
2) Attempt continued conversation with ye space giant
3) Experiment with yon void
4) Scribe-in

Deciding to thank Lilith for enlightening you to the secret of parapets, you search your pockets for something to present as a gift. Your digits close around a small metal object that you're sure you didn't put there. Between your fingers is one of those mood rings that everyone claims were "all the rage" ten years ago no matter what decade it is. Deciding it's as good a trinket as any, you extend your hand to offer it to the alien. Lilith grasps it and raises it to her mask to examine it. After about thirty seconds her gaze snaps back to you and you see what might be mirth in her eyes. She gently tosses the ring into the air and catches it in her palm.

Closing both her eyes and her hand Lilith appears to be contemplating something. After ten minutes (and the realization you're wearing your watch) her eyes open and she lowers her hand in front of you. She opens her hand to reveal, a flask? After starring at the container in confusion for a few minutes, you take the offered flask and shoot Lilith a curious look. The flask is not the type of hip flask you are familiar with, it has a round lower body with a thin neck. Opening the flask and taking a sniff of it's contents reveals the sharp biting smell of alcohol. Recapping the flask you consider your next course of action.

You have obtained YE FLASK which is currently filled with MEAD

What wouldst thou deau?
1) Useth IDENTIFY OBJECT on BLUE HAIRED LASS
2) Asketh Lilith the Wise another inquiry
3) Quaff some serious mead
4) Combineth YE FLASK with BLUE HAIRED LASS
[s]5) Scribeth-in[/s] Methinks thy prologue doth draggeth on too much

The fact that doing illogical things without consequence seems to be standard operating precedure here, you decide to do the most spontaneous thing you can with the resources you have. Approaching the blue haired girl (who appears not to have blinked even once since you got here) and uncapping the flask you prepare for the worst and hope for the best. You raise the flask to the girl's barely open lips and tip it up slightly to begin emptying it's alcoholic contents. After about ten seconds of force feeding the girl booze you notice two things. One, the girl seems to have had no reaction to the drink remaining just as catatonic as when you first saw her. Two, the flask seems no lighter than before as if you had not emptied it at all. Removing the flask from her lips, you decide to examine her more closely.

The most physically apparent thing about this girl was obviously her abnormal hair color, you're not sure what kind of crazy genetic surgery is required for light blue hair but it's probably highly painful and highly illegal. The second most apparent thing is her ruby red eyes, which are definitely not a sign of albinism in this case. Her skin, while pale, still obviously contains a noticeable amount of melanin. On the mental side of things, you think it odd that she has not yet responded to any outside stimulus. The only sign she is still amongst the living are the small, now alcohol scented, breathes she takes. Taking action, literally, into your own hands you poke her gently on the cheek.

The void disappears once more.

You are now surrounded by light of all colors coming from all derections around you. As your vision comes into focus, the colors start to form into shapes and the shapes form into people, places, and things. As you look to your left, you lock onto a woman with brown hair leaning down to meet your face with an apprehensive look on her face. To your right is a tall bearded man with orange glasses speaking to you in a language you don't understand with a nostalgic expression on his face. Dirrectly in front of you you see the same man through an orange tint, a blond woman working on a console behind him. The realization hits you like a Mosin-Nagant stock to the head, these are the girl's memories. Your eyes fly around the images, seperated yet blurred together, watching her interactions with people who all share one common trait.

You know who they are.

You know you recognise these people but if you try to remember anything specific about them the information seems to slide just out of reach for conscious recall. The feeling of familiarity is so strong it hurts now and you turn your body around to avoid the pain.

Right into another murial of memory.

Your memories.

You remember your parents, your friends, your favorite color, your hobbies, both of your family dogs. You remember the name of the blue haired girl, Rei Ayanami. You remember a word of great importance to your situation, Evangelion. Another realization hits you harder than the last.

You are inside Rei Ayanami's head.

This cacophony of memory is peaked with what might be the most important recollection of all.

Your name.

Your name, please.

Well, considering there's just been the one vote and it's gone uncontested. Welcome to the world Elvis Wesley.

Elvis Wesley.

You roll the name off your tongue a couple times.

Yes, that feels right. By the time you've become re-accustomed with your name the memory storm has tapered off and you are left standing in the middle of some weird world made of a combination of your and Ayanami's memories. Now that you have your full mental facilities, you turn back toward Rei's side of this odd arrangement and notice something out of place.

There is a huge black crack in her wall of recollection, examining it closer you find that it splits Rei I's memories from Rei II's. As you sweep your view across the mental construct you notice something else your side lacks, a large blank spot about five feet in diameter sits at the "end" of Ayanami's memories. As you come to a halt at Rei's most recent memory, staring at her celing untill she fell asleep, you start working your way back to try and figure out when you are. As you slowly work backwards through her day you eventually find something of interest. Gendo Ikari in all his bearded glory stares back at you, hands clasped in his trademark ambassador's pose. Unfortunately when you regained your memories and full control of your mind you seem to have also brought Ayanami's memories to a silent halt. "Rei." Gendo Ikari's voice sounds from all around. Your attention snaps back to the now moving mental image, to view a conversation between Rei and the commander of NERV.
Normally this would probably be incredibly informitive.

If you spoke Japanese.

As you turn from the memory the Gendo's voice cuts off and you are left in silence once more.

You are inside Rei Ayanami's memories surrounded by invaluable information... that you can't understand.

1) Keep searching through Rei's memories, actions speak louder than words
2) Return to your memories, maybe you can figure out how you got here
3) Try manipulating this weird memory place, maybe you'll get another flask
4) Attempt to return to the void, maybe Lilith knows something
5) Write-in
