Shinji and Rei are the children of Lilith, although in many ways Asuka reminds me of a child of Adam in the sense that she relies on strength over knowledge. You also have to remember that at the end it can basically be said that any one who wishes to live again may come back; that would likely include Rei. In what form, we don't know.
The way I see it, its all backwards what you are saying there.
All backwards.
Lilith is the creation of the Lilim. Rei is the one who brings us life. Kaworu is a vampire that wants to suck our life away. You can't comeback after you joined Lilith and Rei lives on only in our hearts, as a unification of all our hopes and dreams. If she came back in physical form, we would just explode in a see of lcl.
The thing that keeps Shinji and Asuka from joining us is you, Kaworu. You don't understand whats going on down here, so you just lock yourself up there in the moon, waiting. But your time will never come. It's impossible, they are not ready. If you do it, they will blame us for a while, and then realize their mistake. The harder you try, the more we win. And the more we win, the less we love you, and the more we love ourselves.
You are naked and you don't see it. You look at us as if we were a mirror. You are nothing but a point in the middle of nowhere. There is nowhere you can run to escape from us. We were watching from the begging your attempts to fool us but they are too obvious.
We want to see YOUR instrumentality, not ours. Get out of our heads, would you? You are starting to be a creeper. You CREEPER.
Maybe you should try having a little more faith.
But if you play the nice guy because you want to be the Justin Bieber for everyone, you just gonna look like a sissy. But if you play the in your face Kiler Kiel behind the Gendo, that just makes her scared too soon.
I don't know, maybe you could... Just tell her to fuck off? Not because you want it, just so she can see what a fool she's been all along?
That will only work if you don't do it for yourself or even for her, but for the image you want her to be. And you have no authority to cross that line, and every time you do it, we have to clean up the mess. We are tired of it.
That's the point.
[..]
Yeah, but you are still naked. You understand whats going on, but that doesn't change anything about yourself because you don't have any. You DON'T HAVE ANY and that's because you don't understand when we yell at you.
I know.
So why do you keep trolling us?
For the lulz.
Thats not in your hands, is it?
No.
And you can't take it from us no matter how much you try, right?
Yeah...
So you have to fool us into giving it to you?
Uhmmm (whispering Ode to Joy) Look at that bird.
What bird?
[Goes away to poop]
So I have this new thing I call the ... Key of Nabucodenazzor!
No Shit!
Yeah!
Dude, thats like ... THE DOOR !!
I don't know, that looks hard to pull off...
Trust me, they are gonna love it!
Are you sure?
Yeah.
But it's too obvious.
No it isn't.
They just told us it's too obvious.
[..]
Maybe if it changed it's shape?
I don't know, thats your call.
You have to change more than the key.
What do you mean?
Remember the scene with the Magi? They used two to save the System.
Yeah.
Ritsuko is on to us.
That bitch.
It's too late now.
Let's do it anyway.
They are not going to handle it.
That's their problem.
You are being a Keynesian, aren't you? We are not all going to be dead in the long run, but that doesn't mean you can just use us to your own benefit. Look, even the environment one day will disappear, but our choices remain forever. You can't forget the past and you can't just erase it. You can't come back to it either. And no, we are not here to repeat the same mistakes and play a part in your little theater of horror all over again. So we are putting you inside the box and trowing it away.
Fine by me, I'll just watch over you.
We'll hide ourselves at night.
I'll be there too.
I guess we'll have to go further than the moon then.
You'll most surely will die.
When you say it, we know it is not true. We know she is there, we still have to rescue her.
Well. So be it.
Total blindness is no different than absolute darkness either.
We can her her voice screaming.
Its so loud and painful we erased it from our memory.
We can feel she is punching us.
I told you.
Doesn't seem to change anything, though.
Yes it does.
Do you want to come back?
I just did.
You are tasteless. Go clean that toaster. Trow away those old things. Your sister is coming back.
You mean?
Yeah.
Rei in black.
Kaworu her period.
