I've read nearly all the arguments supporting your claim of Misato's motives, but I remain unconvinced. However, I suppose it would be beneficial for Aubrey to hear what you have to say.l

You make it sound as if I'm the only proponent of said "claim".

You don't think Misato went after Shinji as a lover in episode #23?
Or do you simply feel this was a one off slip for her, and that her motives for keeping him are largely maternal?

Well, now that I've opened that can of worms, don't post another word about it unless it's in an appropriate thread. Reichu's orders! (I'm sure there's a preexisting one in the Discussions Forum somewhere.)

Pimp it Dave! Pimp it like Gendo!
a Dream that never ends
a Love that never dies
like living on the other side of the sky
When everything’s an illusion
Life is neither borrowed nor bought it’s just something that you’re using
Nothing is my freedom
yet,
Nothing my cage
Man! it’s great just to be living
in the paradox age.

You do realize that the above has "comeback bait" written all over it?

Ok. I've decided to change my mind from Gendo to Kaworu.

Why?
Well I conducted a little experiment last night, and now I no longer think that Gendo is all he makes himself out to be. He seems to be hiding the fact that his "apparatus" might not be up to regular standards.
Let's just say he's shooting some dodgy bullets!

"What's the friggin experiment? :x " I here ya'll ask.

Well it involves there two,
"Image"Image
and the phrase......If They Mated.

Behold...

If 'largely maternal' includes keeping him around for company*...


* in all senses of the word, but mostly platonic.

Well, he could be a paedophile, but it strikes me as unlikely.

Ryo wrote:If I were a girl, I'd go for Toji, or maybe even Kensuke. They seem much more fun than Shinji, at least.


Toji, OK. But Kensuke? IMHO, he's slightly too obsessed with the EVA's for having a girlfriend (except a really large one - like, EVA-sized... :lol: )

Ohh by the way.
I'm curious to see what all the members look like,
so, I don't know, if you want to post me your picture, please do.

P.S.
This is in no way related to my last post.

Hey, I said I was gonna do an "If They Matted" topic.
If you didn't believe me, well that's you're fault.

Ohh by the way Oroboro.
You don't have a picture of yourself that you want to share with us.
Do you?

Actually no. My body is constructed in an odd way. I have short spine, so there's next to no room in between my hips and rip cage. And I'm just skinny.

I'm just wondering Oroboro.

How come you didn't post your picture in the "sticky" topic instead of "What Women Want"...
...Hmmmmmm. :D

Because, it's like I said, this is what women want...

And, I didn't see the sticky topic :oops:

I'll have to move it.

I'd go for Fuyutsuki for his distinguished good looks, though Makoto isn't bad looking for a youngster.

the_seventh_child wrote:Why a woman should like a 48 years old man?


Because they are mature &amp experienced (nudge, nudge, wink, wink). And in Gendo's case there could also be a little bit of the Kissinger effect, which is why you see trophy babes on the arms of old guys.

(quoth he, 13 weeks from his 48th birthday).

Aubrey wrote:Yes there was the kiss in EoE, but I never saw that as romantic. To me it was just given as a gift to comfort him (and his hormones).


Comfort nothing - that was the blatant nuclear option to try and get his sorry ass in gear via said hormones, since reason and appeal to his better self had both failed. Though Asuka could have told her she was wasting her last breath, even if ep23 were completely innocent (and if not, she'd already know that).

Reichu wrote:IMO, there's no point in having a romantic relationship with someone if you're not best friends first.


It doesn't always work like that. Sometimes the bolt from the blue ("Hey, our major histocompatibility complexes smell amazingly complementary! Let's pair-bond.") pre-empts matters.

It is very difficult, but I'll refrain from commenting...

Hence why I said "IMO". When I was a sprout and I asked my dad about who his friends were, that eventually evoked the comment, "Your mother is my best friend." I was very impressed by this sentiment. I decided that whoever I would love in the same way my dad loves my mom, they would also be my best friend. No problems so far. ^_^
