What SSD said.

Side note... the summary response was rather uninspired. I'm not saying you should go through all this in equal detail, but piling it all on like that really makes asking the question in the first place seem trivial. If our choices for that moment don't matter, I'd rather you just tell us what happens and move on to the next choice that does, you know?

With what? Is it stated we have money? If so, then we can go Ramen, but if not we may as well head home.

Ramen shop plx

And what NemZ said. If a question/option leads to pretty much nothing or is completely trivial it's discouraging.

A LOT of what happens is actually randomly generated. No one happened to be in the park that roll. Just bad luck. The park has other effects on your state of being that affect choices you can receive later on. It's a nice calm-down effect that might help you guys recover from Angels later instead of going batshit crazy. Everything has consequences, you just don't get to see/hear them all.

Likewise, the hunger scenario could be dealt with in a lot of ways. There's several different kinds of restaurants plus home (GGSS) plus the Nerv cafeteria, you just all decided to go to a ramen shop. Hell, you guys coulda just said "let's grab a X from a vending machine and then head to Y". This was less about deliberate railroading and more about seeing what you would come up with when given almost COMPLETELY free reign. I needed to see what the audience would do so that I can determine how restricted to keep you guys later. There's no plot for me to railroad you into, tbh.

Since you DO have money, you head to a ramen shop and grab some chow. One of the bridge bunnies (Kaede) is also getting food here.

1) Talk to her?
2) Flee and go somewhere else in town?
3) Just go back to Nerv and go to sleep?

Why would we want that?!

Let's flee. Strange people make Shinji angry.

"Uh, hi..." you say.

She turns to you. "Oh! Third Child! Hello!"

"Y- you can call me Ikari..."

She smiles. "Okay. You can call me Kaede."

"Right."


1) "So, how'd you join Nerv?"
2) "So, what do you think of my piloting?"
3) (jokingly) "So, wanna go out?"

Shinji had a sense of humor once in one episode I think....

Oh wait, that was Episode 26 AU...

Still though, 3. Do eet.

If I can, I say in this order, #3, #1 then #2. Joke around a bit to break the ice, then ask her about herself, then get her opinion of your piloting. :smokin:

#1 seems the most sensible choice.

btw... Kaede? Who?

"So, wanna go out?" you ask jokingly.

She laughs. "You're funny," she says. "I don't think that I could live with myself, going out with someone who isn't an adult. Though you are cute..."

"I... I was only kidding anyways," you say, propriety suddenly rushing back over you like a blush. In fact, you ARE blushing. Figures.

"I will eat dinner with you, if you like?"


1) Yes.
2) No. Specify where you go (or if you just stay here and eat at a different table. Because you can be a dick like that).
